Special Note: this email was actually sent out on February 12, 2013: Bad Mom didn't post it til now!!! We even received a ton of pics too!!! But no captions:(

Hey everybody!!!

  So everyone this has been an amazing week or sure, lots of learning on how to be a better missionary!!! We had an amazing zone training kahapon, we learned what, why and how to receive a true testimony of this gospel, we each used a different scripture, it really opened my eyes on what really is a testimony, not a storymony!! We have found ourselves sometimes having a storymony, but where is our real testimony. It was an amazing district meeting, we also, followed that up with an amazing testimony meeting. This was an amazing week of learning really I cannot express what I felt this week, it really helped with what I have been focusing on since, I know now this is the time for me to shine and I want to let you know all of you is do not hide your testimony, it can do a lot of things that we didn't think it could do!! OPEN YOUR MOUTHS!!!

   Mom those are amazing scriptures, the same chapter of the scripture in Proverbs is one of my personal favorite, it is Proverbs 3:10-11 it is an amazing chapter. Also the one from Philippians is also an amazing scripture, you never know what you will find in the scriptures, anywhere there is a scripture that is prepared for you. It is so amazing, another thing that I have loved about the mission, is dati,(previously) I had no desire to read and kinda just let it go by, but now whenever, I have time other than personal study, I read in the scriptures talk about a real turn around!!! I will be writing an email, either this email time or the next one!! First business is HAPPY BIRTHDAY NG!!! You are now a teenager, hahaha Mom and Dad how does that make you feel  hahaha jokelang!!(just joke) Sounds like you guys are really having a great time with everything we had a great week indeed, Ed has to get surgery, which is really cruddy, geez, that really stinks Ed and Addy still sounds like that nursery is a whole new things for ya!! Anyways sounds like you guys are enjoying life and really trying to be your best here! Me i'm trying my best to be a great, and obedient missionary!!, I still mess up every now and again, but i'm trying my best!! Anyways we are really making progression with everything, in the branch, we are still having a very hard time getting the investigators, to church it really is hard for our area, we are so far away, but we are still trying our best, the work other than that is going great we are finding new people to teach, still trying our best to really have them feel the spirit, and to be touched by that power. Love you all so much, really miss each and every one of you. Mahal kita(LOVE),
