 This week was good we were able to eat Thanksgiving dinner with one of the people who we are teaching and he made some really good food.

 We also were able to go over and have a lesson with our Spanish fraind that I talked about last week. We taught him about the restored gospel and how God still speaks to us and how the scriptures can help him through his problems that he was having. 

I also got to go on exchanges down to Greenville and help do some service for some people who have alot of different animals. 

It's sad to think that I only have 2 more full weeks of missionary work but it's an experience that I will never forget and that I'm so thankful for. 



Sorry the pictures of the animals are the best but it's all I have lol

Out of Subject ideas

 This week as been good. It's getting cold here (cold for me) but we have had some cool experiences this week.

 We were having a lesson with one of our friends on his porch and his roommate came out and he was not having a good day. He came out and started asking us questions about the purpose of life. He said he believes in God but he has one flaw or problem. He said he's an alcoholic... He was obviously intoxicated but he really wanted to change, so we are going back over today to try to show him that there's a better way to deal with the problems that we encounter in life and that with God's help we can overcome anything. 

Its moments like this that really make what we do as missionaries worth it. Now we have no idea how things will go but to see a child of God reaching out for help and being able to show him a better way through Christ is something I'm grateful for.


I didn't have much time today but I just wanted to share this experience.
Here are some pictures from the zoo last monday. It was cold so I don't have many pictures of the animals cuz they were hiding.

Home stretch

 It's been a little bit since I've sent an email things are going good it's been a little tough in this area but we have been having a lot more interaction with the members. 

Last week we had a member who only speaks Spanish move to our area from Texas and when we had our fast and testimony meeting I went up with him so that he could give his testimony and I translated it to English it was pretty cool.

 It's starting to get cold here and all the leaves are changing colors. Kentucky in the fall is beautiful (but not so nice in the winter). It's really not too bad as far as the cold but when it's like 35 degrees and 85% humidity it cuts through your layers lol.

 Sorry this email wasn't longer but I'm coming to the end I have one more month so Im trying to make the most of it and keep working hard.
