Kia Ora Everyone!

I hope everyone has had a great week! I know mine was absolutely wonderful!

it is funny because sometimes out on the mission you think you week was ok and then you look back on it and you realize it was just absolutely incredible or you have one visit and it just makes it all worth while!

I have to say that the best feeling in the world is when someone informs you that you have been an answer to their prayers, or someone tells you that because of you they see a change in someone else.  Recently we have been working with two of the youth who are less active their mom informed me and my companion that we are the first missionaries to ever really connect with them, she says she can now slowly them starting to change!  I don't want to give to much information but these two youth are changing and it is incredible to see!

also one of the young couples we are teaching who we have had a hard time seeing lately we have seen them twice this week which was awesome and every time we had awesome lessons with them and they have told us that the Gospel makes sense to them and they feel like they have heard it before, then we explained to them how they have heard it before and just pretty much blew their mind!  it is wonderful to see the change in peoples lives but also to slowly see the change in your own life.

I hope everyone will look for opportunities to serve others this week, and seek to help those that are struggling.

I love you all and hope you all have a great week!
