It's super hot here. But I
am LOVING my area. We have found quite a few people who are just SO
ready for the gospel. We put 8 baptism dates this week but a few of them
fell thru because they didn't make it to church. We did have two show up!
One is 13 years old and is friends with a member. They came together. And the other is the husband of a sister who was baptised in October. He has been saying that he
will come and finally did yesterday! We had our District conference
yesterday and Saturday. Hermana Humphrey and I dressed up all cool! But
sadly the internet is a bit dumb where we are at today and I will have
to send the pictures next week. Ceci might have sent some pictures
through facebook! She was asked to share her conversion story in stake
conference and she did wonderful! I absolutely LOVE watching her change
and progress. It is WONDERFUL!!!!! :)
I can't believe how FAST
the mission goes. I have learned so much and will keep learning more
every day. Hermana Humphrey and I talked a lot about the ability we have
to make choices this week. We talked about having the eternal
perspective and how we have so much MORE to life then just what we see
here on earth. I am so excited to know all that God has prepared for me.
I am excited to start my eternal family, I am excited to do all that
the Lord would have ME do for Him.

I know that the Gospel is
perfect. We are not perfect people, but the Lord has provided the way
that we can repent and BECOME perfect people. I love my Savior. I love
the scriptures. I love being in Zanatepec. I love the members. I love
love love love love love love being a missionary! Success isn't in the
numbers; success is in the feelings and in WHO you are, not in WHAT you
have done :)
Thanks for being so wonderful and for doing all you do! I love you!!
