For those of you who know me well know that I'm not one to sugar coat. I'll say exactly how things are, and exactly how I feel. I hope that my letters never give a sense of negativity, however, I believe it's important to hear how things really are. There are beautiful moments on a mission. Like hearing someone say a prayer for their first time, developing a strong relationship with Heavenly Father, and looking back just to see how much you've grown. However, a mission is tough. This week, in particular, was quite difficult for me.

As studied this week for comfort, I came across this scripture:
"Wherefore, be not weary in well-doing, for ye are laying the foundation of a great work. And out of small things proceedeth that which is great."
I am grateful for the scriptures. I am grateful for the hope that the gospel brings, and even more so the hope that we have because of our Saviour!
One thing that also helps me get through tough times is having a good laugh. Here's my story for the week. Sister Jakobi and I were walking down a street and she started doing some heel clicks. I decided I needed to show her how to do a proper one, so I went in front of her to demonstrate. As I jumped into the air I heard a loud rip. My dress split down the back about 6 inches. Is anyone surprised? I had to walk around the rest of the day with my split dress. We got a good laugh out of that one.
I also found some satisfaction in the little rays of sunlight every day this week. We got a glimpse of the sun -even in the rain- for about 5 minutes every day. Oh how we take the sun for granted!
Cheers. Have a good week
