The Insects Strike Again!

MAMA!

Church is amazing isn´t it!  I am SOOOOOO excited for General Conference!  I hope that I will have the gift of tongues by then so I can really know what they are saying!  But you should choose a talk as a family that you absolutely love and send it to me just in case!

First off....mosquito love me.  We had quite the experience this week with them.  One day my companion woke up and said, ¨Compañera! Look¨  I looked over and her mouth was swollen.  HAHAHAHAHA!  I couldn´t stop laughing, it was so great!  Well my companion had her pay back.  I woke up the next morning with a Quazi Moto eye....  Luckily my glasses covered it up....

Me with my Quazi Moto eye!  Dang mosquitoes!

For p-day we made cookies!  They were delicious and I was so excited to cook again!  Do you think that you could send me some recipes?  Cookies, brownies,  rice krispies....I love it muchly!

I have had a lot of people come up to me lately and tell me that I look like Taylor Swift.....Not sure how they see it.  BUT it is a great way to start a contact!

The most spiritual thing that happened during this week was listening to a priesthood blessing.  I love the priesthood with all my heart!  Even if I don´t fully understand all that is being said I know that it is something amazing!  

Everyday we try to find a new and fun thing to do.  This week we went to an area called El Arco.  It was really hot  and we were trying to find some less actives.  On our way to the house we ran into a family of 7 and two of the girls showed us the way.  We basically went hiking and there was a little stream.  I wish that I didn´t have to wear flats because we go ¨hiking´´ a lot.

I try new foods everyday!  This week was chicharron or pork rinds....not a good experience for my whole district....

My Spanish is improving everyday.  I had one lesson where I just whipped out a part of the lesson and it was amazing!  I wish it would happen more often.  I can understand people now! I just need to improve my vocabulary.

We had a meeting with President Whitehead.

(Dad's Letter)

Dad,

Sounds like things are going just swimmingly in good old Enoch!  3 NEW MISSIONARIES!  How exciting!  I can't believe the success you are having in the ward!  I bet the missionaries are glad that you are so willing to help them along in the work!

We are having a movement ourselves here.  Our goal is to have a ward instead of a Branch.  The Branch Pres. is very serious about this work.  A lot of the members are willing to help us out.  I love working with the members and It helps the investigators have a friend in the church.

Dad I have a lot of recipes.  One of our investigators gave me 5 cookbooks.  I am going to collect some of my favorite recipes for us to try when I get home.  We are going to have some good eats!

For finding people we do street contacts and referrals.  We are outside practically all day.  My area is great.  We have a lot of less actives.  We do teach a lot though.  The only thing is that a lot of people have to work on Sunday, so attendance at church is low. We will keep working on it.  The people are very loving and giving.  

Thanks for all of your work!

Love you tons!
