hello there om and dad! everything is going great for me and my companion were having a blast together and were working so hard! like really hard. Were teaching these two sisters from Trinidad and they are preparing to be baptised on the nineteenth! they are so wonderful and they really ask the best questions. One of them actually had all these questions that were all very anti Mormon questions so she decided to ask us instead of just stop seeing us which is what most people do so we were really excited that she came to us. they are amazing. other that that were working with a part member family and trying to get their kids baptised. They are a very nice family and we have high hopes for them. We are doing a lot of finding. i mean a lot! knocking for hours , contacting on the streets and we cant seem to find people at all but i know its only a matter of time until the lord puts those people in our paths. I had a funny thing happen this week.....I was bending over to pick up this pass along card i dropped on the ground and i ended up ripping my pants so bad haha in front of all these people.. i was laughing so hard! but Ive never worked as hard as i am right now I'm tired , I'm anxious to find people, upset i cant find people, but I'm so happy to be out on my mission i know these are emotions that with the mission and i prepared myself. i also finished the book of Mormon today. what an amazing book it truly is the word of god . i know it to be true and i really immersed myself in it and was reading it wherever i went i could not put it down. But i know it is true and it strengthened my testimony tremendously. And now ill be reading the new testament( I'm already half way through) it is amazing never would i thought i would love the scriptures so much i guess that's what happens when you actually try something you never have tried before. the ward is so amazing they love missionaries and they would do anything for us i feel a special connection with the people in this ward. i know I'm in Maidstone for a reason there is people here who are waiting for me to bring them the gospel i just have to find them which is the tough part but I'm up for a the challenge! I'm doing great right now i don't need anything except the continuation of your love and support:) it keeps me going and keeps me determined. i love this gospel so much and just lately Ive had this increase of desire to find those people who need the gospel and its going to last for a while. :)
