Learning from the President, Favorite part of being a missionary

Hey mom-

This week has to have been my fastest week. I would say 6/7 days i was busy all day. Saturday night we had a meeting with President and he always puts any topic in an eternal perspective. Every small thing we are doing or learning right now will determine who we will become. He is really an inspired man. We had family home evening with them and that was good as well. Tuesday i worked with Elder Alo with organizing all the medicine and things. I really want to organize what i can while i am here so it'll be a lot easier for the person after me. We had a birthday this week and that is always fun here in the office. Changes are this Tuesday and President is opening up a new zone in Momostenango. Changes should just be fun in general.

I hope all is well and that your hospice patient enjoys your visits and that the cleaning goes over well.

Love ya

My favorite part of being a missionary. That's an interesting question. I would have to say its a lot different here in the office then in the field. But when i was in the field, i always enjoyed watching someone click and the lights suddenly turn on. For some it was fast but some people it took months, but it doesn't matter, the light still came on. Knowing that you played some little part in the investigators, or less actives, or recent converts, or the members lives at a certain time is really interesting to think about. You are there for a little bit, try to help anyone you talk to come unto Christ, and then leave. It doesn't feel like a little bit but when you have a change and look back, it feels like a little bit.

But right now in the office, i think for everybody its playing soccer. Well just on Saturday. haha just kidding
