so family this week has been really fast and the mission is starting to fly by! Jordan has 1 year in the mission and pretty soon next month alex will have a year! the wierdest is that im coming up so fast on a year and its making me nervous! i love the mission and im grateful for all the people that i know down here and how awsome the church is!! well thursday was great we had a chance to talk to this one member about the importance of Keeping the Sabbath day holy and i loved this scripture that i found in Mosiah 3:7 which talks about the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and i used that as an example that if Jesus Christ can suffer that much we can sacrifice one day every week to show our love for God and his son Jesus Christ!! i love sundays not only can i can take the sacrament but i can feel closer to my savior and my redeemer Jesus Christ! This is a day where we can think of him and feel peace Joy and to feel his love! friday was fantastic because we talked to this one lady named Florangel about prophets and i really believe that the spirit testified with her that prophets in this dispensation are true!i truly believe that Thomas S. Monson is a true prophet of god and that through him we can know the words of god!! He is our strength in this day to keep moving forward and to keep a sure tesimony about this is the only true church on the face of the earth!! Saturday was a little frustrateing because all of our lessons fell and we couldnt teach anybody! Sunday was great because it was fast sunday and that the testimonies of these great people here and that i got to fast!! Monday was good and i love every family night that we have hear because the families are soo strong in the gospel!! so tuesday was ok but we could not teach very many people and i felt really tired!! but yesterday was amazing because we went to the beach with all of the missionaries and we played volleyball and it was good!! so anyway thats my week and i hope that your week will be great!!
