Yeah-- I posted fast!!

Wow what a week!!!

Im a little jealous at the snow there. Here in Pgoula... it is just cold. Maybe not cold for normal standards, but because of the humity it feels wa cooler.

I am sending Livi B-day package tomorrow as well. Hope she enjoys it. Also i have letters and other stuff in the package.

OK my week...

was tough. Ha. It was really tough. My companion and I worked hard, but our progress right at the moment is very limited. We had some great lessons with Justina (a older dominican lady) and she will be baptized someday, she wants to so bad, but right now she cannot get off work on sundays. Besides that, literally everything else fell through, investigators didnt show, or otherwise.

Also saturday night, the stake put on a Luau. There are two polynesian missionaries in mobile, actaully they are the ZLs, and they did an awesome job. Seriously, with about 5 polynesians they put on a show almost at level with the cultural center. IT was a great missionary opportunity.

Last friday, we had zone conference in mobile. And once again, i felt like everything that was said was directly for me. I realized a lot of things that i need to do and i got a lot of ideas on how to do it. It was so incredable, president is amazing, and so are the missionaries here. Oh to answer your question, i am almost 6 hours away from the mission home! lol.

I have been feeling some change coming though. I have made a lot of goals right now, first and foremost to let go of myself and get to work. God has very much been humbling me the last few weeks. And being humbled is painful, but it is a good pain, because i can see God's hand so much easier in my life right now. So yes, it is tough, but i love it. I will make the mos growth right now, in the midst of all these challenges. And i will make the most growth when i let go of myself and focus on others... i have struggled with that. i naturally am someone who sits on the sidelines and watches life unfold in front of me. Now i want to through myself out into life and change the world... little by little.

My companion was basically put in charge of spanish transfers. There is a very good chance that i will be transfered... i can feel some sort of change coming, that could be it.

Well this email is huge, i will email a little more later! I got to answer some other emails.

Love you mommy!
