Dear Family,
Well how is life for you all? The new movie that you saw sounds interesting.. ohhh how are the peach trees doing?! Ah and don't forget to send me pictures of you all every now and then, or everyweek if you so desire :)
My companion: Hermana Tejada! She is 19 years old and if from Peru, she is so cute! And still getting used to the missionary work like all of us at the beginning. and actually I just found out that she pretty much speaks perfect english becaue I saw her writting in her journal and it was in english! But she hadn't really talked to me in english before that haha, she is so sneaky. She is great, and is teaching me so much, things I hadn't noticed before or how to find the needs, she is really good at that. But she is a little shy and I'm sure it's because it's the beginning of the mission, so I talk alot more now. And I'm trying to do my best because well she literally watches my every move! A mini me :) And she is awesome!
So this week we have been finding a lot of people and as it says in the training book that the new missionary should take the lead in inviting people to be baptized, so the first day we were together I invited everyone so she could see, and these past couple of days have been awesome! She is inviting everyone to be baptized! ha I love it! And so we were waiting for four people to come to church, but no one came :( We went and looked and called but no one. And Andres didn't come and he didn't really want to tell us why either so we don't know what we are going to do there.
No worries about the mascara mom, I still have a lot and I think I will be good now until the end of the mission. haha, but really thank you for everything!
But family and mom and dad really thank you for helping me so much, just looking at my baptism photos brings back childhood memories, or just the other day we were talking about on p-day what we were like as children and I said that you guys had to tie all of the chairs to the table because I would climb every where. But more than that I am so grateful for all the many things you have taught me, in our FHE, family scripture and prayer, and personal, the importance of the temple, to stick to my standards, for being modest, for always forgiving, for being worthy, serving others and giving what we can, not gossiping and looking for the best, love. There are so many things well eveything I have learned is thanks to the wonderful family that I have and that my Heavenly Father has blessed me with you. I love you all so much and words nor actions can express it, but know that I love you. Thank you for all that you do and for the support that you give me and for the prayers, and can feel them. Keep being happy! :)
Love,
Hermana Louder
