This week has been really great, I love being a missionary. As a missionary you need to learn how to roll with the punches and laugh things off! I've really learned how to laugh when things get a little crazy! :))
This week we did a movie night with our two branches and tons of people showed up including a lot of the less actives that we have been teaching! And some investigators! We got everyone situated and started then we realized the people that were in charge of the popcorn hadn't arrived.. so we called and they told us they had some emergencies and they hadn't started to make it yet! Well we ran to the rescue and popped so much popcorn as fast as we could to rush it to the activity! Haha but as always everything went well and people were uplifted! :))
Also this week ten minutes before church started I was asked to speak in both of the branches I'm serving in! Obviously I said yes with a big smile. I love sharing my testimony and my thoughts about this gospel with other members. These people are so amazing and so faithful. There are not a ton of members here but the people who are members are hard working and do all they can to help this work come to pass! :)
I am so grateful for personal study in the morning. I encourage each of you, if you haven't already, to take out time in the morning to do your personal study and let the Lord reveal unto you all that you need to know!
I love this Gospel and all that it has to offer us but most of all JOY! :))
I love you all so much!
Hermana Jenson!
Good morning how are you?
ReplyDeleteMy name is Emilio, I am a Spanish boy and I live in a town near to Madrid. I am a very interested person in knowing things so different as the culture, the way of life of the inhabitants of our planet, the fauna, the flora, and the landscapes of all the countries of the world etc. in summary, I am a person that enjoys traveling, learning and respecting people's diversity from all over the world.
I would love to travel and meet in person all the aspects above mentioned, but unfortunately as this is very expensive and my purchasing power is quite small, so I devised a way to travel with the imagination in every corner of our planet. A few years ago I started a collection of used stamps because trough them, you can see pictures about fauna, flora, monuments, landscapes etc. from all the countries. As every day is more and more difficult to get stamps, some years ago I started a new collection in order to get traditional letters addressed to me in which my goal was to get at least 1 letter from each country in the world. This modest goal is feasible to reach in the most part of countries, but unfortunately it’s impossible to achieve in other various territories for several reasons, either because they are countries at war, either because they are countries with extreme poverty or because for whatever reason the postal system is not functioning properly.
For all this I would ask you one small favor:
Would you be so kind as to send me a letter by traditional mail from Dominican Republic? I understand perfectly that you think that your blog is not the appropriate place to ask this, and even, is very probably that you ignore my letter, but I would call your attention to the difficulty involved in getting a letter from that country, and also I don’t know anyone neither where to write in Dominican Republic in order to increase my collection. a letter for me is like a little souvenir, like if I have had visited that territory with my imagination and at same time, the arrival of the letters from a country is a sign of peace and normality and an original way to promote a country in the world. My postal address is the following one:
Emilio Fernandez Esteban
Avenida Juan de la Cierva, 44
28902 Getafe (Madrid)
Spain
If you wish, you can visit my blog www.cartasenmibuzon.blogspot.com where you can see the pictures of all the letters that I have received from whole World.
Finally I would like to thank the attention given to this letter, and whether you can help me or not, I send my best wishes for peace, health and happiness for you, your family and all your dear beings.
Yours Sincerely
Emilio Fernandez
