"I am finally in Las Vegas,
well Henderson. MTC was the greatest. I love everyone in my District, and my
teachers. I would go back. They should start up an MTC summer camp where you go
for two weeks then go home, I would do that after my mission. Oh yeah, I would
love that. I am serving in an YSA ward the blessing of that is that everyone
has non-member friends and so there are plenty of people around to teach, we
just have to find them. My trainer is so cool, her name is Sister Fernandez,
she's 22 years old, been out for 9 months, she was serving in Spanish but got
called to train me in English, and she's from Boston. I am so happy to be
finally in Las Vegas, and be able to put in some hard work. It's so weird, that
other night I went to bed at 10:00pm, and it was the best day of my life, but
that is what happens when you are laboring all day. The Lord's work is hard
work. One miracle that we had is that we were in Boulder City eating at a
member's house, and after we decided to go visit some people. We tried to find
a boy that was listed in the Area Book, but there was no apartment number so we
just saw a random address, and went there. There was a really nice girl who had
been taught by the missionaries before, she told us that she knew the church
was true but that she just had to read the Book of Mormon, she said that she
was glad we were girls because she felt more comfortable talking to us. It was
amazing. I loved every second. She is busy with school but said she'll call us
in a week, so hopefully that happens.
Thank you everyone for writing me and giving me notes before. I've taken to starting everyday with reading a note Bryson Toth wrote me, and another note from family or friends. Everyone thinks that will make me homesick but really it just reminds me why I am serving a mission. I am serving because that church is what has brought me the most happiness, and has brought me my favorite people, and now I need to make those people proud by serving with my whole heart, soul, might, and mind, anddddd everything else.
God is good always.
p.s. I am serious when I tell you that I am already tan, I didn't put sunscreen on one day, and now I am tan (well normal skin colour). I am sorry all my pale lovers. I will do my best. "
