eMail of September 14, 2009

I am glad that the family is taking such an active part in everything. There is nothing better that we could be doing really. As for the ACT for Marc, I would say just sign up again. I don´t think it will hurt to take it again and being in school a little bit more before he is going to remember more. But that´s just me.

As for me, I am doing great. I am learning more than I ever thought possible about patience and humility right now. I can tell that the first time doing something is the most difficult. The President of the mission gave me a quote in our last interview that I really liked. It´s "Time, patience, persistence." With that I feel that I can get a lot more done.

I also had a good time today. We went on a hike to a hill near the mountains. It was foggy so we didn´t see much but it was fun. We got to study up there as well. I am grateful for the opportunity to be here doing what I am doing. There is nothing more that I would want to be doing right now. There are so many blessings you can recieve for serving here. We are moving forward and finding more people and trying to help them progress. There are really a lot of hopefulls and we are doing well. But still there is always room for improvement. I´m not sure how I can share what I feel for the gospel now and for the Savior. For how much I am learning and growing it is difficult.

Well I hope you all can enjoy life and not get too stressed. Sometimes it is the most difficult time of our lives that bring us the most joy. I love you and am grateful for your prayers and thoughts.

[email to Dad] In this ward here there are about 100 at church every week, with 1600 in the records. We are going to try and change that. Well, I hope that you can enjoy everything even though it gets complicated.
I have had a complicated but enjoyable time as well. You can´t always do everything though. I am thankful for what you have done and for supporting me here. I know there is no better place for me to be and that I am being prepared for much greater things later on if I but do the will of Him who sent me. Thank you and I just want you to know that I love you.
