week 43

Heyyyy 

I don't have a lot of time so I will try and type something real fast and hope that it is inspirational or something for you but we will see.... You probably all will just scroll to the bottom and look at the pictures anyways. hahaha

so.... this week was good. Honestly this area is tough but we met with some really good people and I am learning to love the people here in San Juan. 

This week Elder Bednar came and talked to all of the missionaries in Lima and it was INCREDIBLE!!!!!! Honestly it is such a blessing to have an apostle of the lord come and talk and also I was in the second row so that was pretty cool as well. He talked a lot about how this is the WORK OF THE LORD. It isn't the work of us as missionaries or the members. We are instruments in the hands of our Savior to share his message. but he is the one changing lives. I am grateful to be a servant of the lord in this time. I know that I am growing into who my Heavenly Father wants me to be. its not always easy but its worth it. 

I love this gospel and I am grateful to share this message that really does bring a lot of hope and joy into my life. 

I love you all and I will try and write a longer email next week!!!
