Hey! how is everyone doing? i hope that everyone is going good. it was good to talk to you guys on Sunday. i was able to talk to juston for like twenty or thirty minutes and it was good. i really enjoyed talking with him. we were able to laugh together and just chat a little. it was good to talk to him, but i dont know. it looks like he is going to a different church now. he says that the church is really weird, but he likes it there because the people accept him for who he is. it just really upsets me that the TRUE CHURCH of God cant accept him as a sinner. i talked to dad a little bit about that and it just made me upset to here how the people treat him in the TRUE CHURCH. i just hope the i dont ever witness someone judge him, because i will get very upset and i wont let that happen. i just cant believe that people cant understand that the church is a place for sinners. it is a place that the Lord created while He was on the earth to PERFECT the saints. i just cant wait until i get home......but things here are going really good. i love the mission and i love everything that i am learning. we fasted on monday and that was good. and we are trying to be able to find some people that are waiting to hear the gospel. people that are going to follow the Lord and not the world. we played some basketball today and that was pretty fun. but we did have a really good day of work on Monday, but tuesday was terrible. somedays we are able to teach a ton and have great lessons. others we teach little and the lessons just arent as good. but we just have to continue working with patience. But things have been going pretty good. it seems like things are going pretty good for you guys there. i really enjoyed talking with you guys. but i really cant think of anything to tekk you guys, because we chatted on Sunday. but yea.....i hope that everything is going good for you guys, i love you and well. i received an email from Justin Oberg and Matt . it is alwas good to hear from them and i wont you to continue to send my emails to them so that they can know what is going on here. i think that i am going to write Matt a letter today and i hope that it will arrive to him fast as well. but yeah. today i am running out of things to say but i love you all. i know that the CHurch is true and i really grateful for the opportunity that i have to serve the Lord here in the Amazon. it is hot and i sweat a lot and a lot of times the people dont want to acceot our message. but we keep walking each day and the people that do want to hear are put in our path. we just have to open our mouths and teach them and let the spirit touch there hearts. i am so grateful for the Spirit and the help that he gives us. it is through him that we learn and we grow. as we apply the things we learn from him and as we cultivate our seed we grow more amore each day and some day, our tree will give fruit and it will white, whiter than any other thing. The Fruit being the fruit that Lehi tasted......Eternal Life. i pray that all of you and i can work hard toward tasting this fruit. i want to taste with you all. i dont want to taste it a lone.....i love you all and i hope taht everything is going good for you all. the gospel is true. LIVE IT!!!!! Never let the gospel be an influence in your life, but turn it into the essence of you life.....do everything that you can to become closer to God each day. give your plant water each day. i love you all and hope that you have a great day and week.
