I also received a personal letter from Kelb. He is doing great but has some struggles and challenges that he is trying to overcome. Please keep him in your prayers! I am just so grateful he is BUSY BUSY doing the Lord's work with no time to worry! MY PRAYER'S ARE CERTAINLY BEING ANSWERED!
Love you all!
Wow, this week has probably been the craziest week of all my weeks here on my mission! Its been super intense and really fun... actually but its been allot of very, very hard work. I think I hate each morning more and more since I have to get up so early! I always hate getting up....I'm not a morning person that's for sure but that's okay you got to do what you got to do!!
Anyway I'm so grateful for all your support and letters this week. I really enjoy reading all your letters and everything!! Sorry I don't ever have much time to write you all back but please know I do love you all and wish the best for you all!!
So first off this week, on Tuesday me and my companion were doing companion study in the morning and we got a call from one of our investigators Mark, he told us that he needed our help cause his friend Ze... which is another of our investigators was in the hospital and his roommate got them evicted out of their house cause he broke in and stuff but we went and moved all his stuff out with him and the cops came and it was really crazy! They were like "who are you guys"? and my companion was like "oh we're just the missionaries"! ha it was fun.. but then on Wednesday we had district meeting and after district meeting my companion went on exchanges to Minneapolis and I had to take over the area for 2 days....I was so scared cause I'm as good at hmong as everyone else but I didn't really know our area fully! So I was just really nervous and scared. I prayed long and hard and overall the exchange went really well I surprisingly knew more than I though I did and I didn't get lost ha ha! We picked up 2 new investigators and had great lessons with some people but on Thursday one of the people from the Mission Home called us and told me that I needed to go down to the apartment mangers office and so me and Elder Ly went down and they told us that we had to have some other missionaries that signed the lease come and live there cause we were breaking the lease and stuff and if not then we were being evicted ourselves out of the apartment and we had to be out by today at 12.... so it's been a long week moving everything. We moved in with the other hmong Elders.... Elder Lor and Elder Abbott. Its cool though, we are the only 4 Elder apartment in the mission and have had allot of fun. We just barley moved everything all out and are done it's been really stressful but I'm excited to live with two other Elders also!!
So its been pretty crazy over here this week! but this General Conference was great! It was probably the best one I have ever heard cause I was paying attention to it unlike other times!! But I really had some questions to be answered and just was going through some struggles and it always brings me much comfort and joy listening to our prophet and his apostles!
Oh one thing I forgot to mention is that we have to bike 5 miles just to get to our area then go to all of our area from there so its going to be allot of biking!! At least 10 miles a day for a minimum but most likely 15-20 miles a day.. I have so much love for every single one of you and am so thankful for your support and love! It means so much to me and I cant express how grateful I am for you all!! I'm so grateful for my grandparents. I have heard stories that I have never heard and it gives me the motivation to be a fully concentrated missionary. I would like to challenge all of you as I am doing.... so every other transfer starting on the one that's about to start I think in the middle of April I am going to read the Book of Mormon its about 6 pages a day. I would love for all of my loved ones and family to join with me!! It will start a week from today I think!
That was my crazy week! This week I'm going on exchanges with my district leader then going to the mission home after that and going on exchanges with the AP's so I'm really excited for that. I will let you know how it goes!
Love you all and thank you for all the support and love!
Love always,
