Week 66 - Stuck in a river without a paddle

Whats up guys, short email this week because I was limited on time in zone p-day!! My comp goes home on Wednesday, and I will be receiving a new comp tomorrow! WE had a good change, but stressful being a leader. Our zone ended with the most in the Mish this month, which is great because we were one of the worsts the month before. The hope now it to keep a constant high every month! I don't love being a leader, but I know God has me here to prepare me to have more patience and know how to work with people better. I have had to deal with many ridiculous little things with missionaries, and it has me all over the place but God is for sure supporting me through it all!!

So I just wanted to acknowledge that my area has a poopy river that runs through it. I wish i could say i was joking, but in fact it is a small little river where all the plumbing from all the houses runs straight out of a tube into it. You can literally know when someone uses the bathroom, and the smell is great!!!

Update on the Mish: We had another baptism this week, named Marvin! Very cool dude, we actually found him because his best buddy brought him to seminary and well 5 weeks later he was baptized.

Recently I have had many experiences with reading the Book of Mormon. For those of you that do not know, WE BELIEVE IN THE BIBLE! The Bible testifies of Christ, and was written by the prophets and apostles who were witnesses of him. The Book of Mormon is Another Testament of Christ, but it was written from the ancient inhabitants of the Americas (Native Americans), and all of the ancient tribes and civilizations that lived here before  the Europeans cruzed over. The Book of Mormon is a Testament that Christ came to the Americas, and is the savior and redeemer of the world. The More and more I have come to read, learn, and share the book of Mormon with people, I have found the peace and joy in the questions of my soul. Recently I took the invitation to start focusing on just the Book of Mormon with people that weren't progressing, and the difference I have seen in people just testifies of its truthfulness. I every person that reads this email to download the Book of Mormon app, and read 3 Nephi 11, which is the story of when Christ came to the Americas. Member of our church, Baptist, Catholic, doesn't matter, I invite EVERYONE!

This mission is awesome, and I am so excited for conference!!
