Talofa!!
 

Well this week was great we put 4 people on date for baptism for February. I cant wait to see some one in white that i helped bring to the Gospel. Everyday that passes by just makes me so sad because it means my mission is one day closer to coming to an end. :( I love being a missionary so much and i have truly learned to love these people and the taught of going home has made me cry a few times so i just  have decide to not think about it any more. but i do want to share with you some things I have learned on my mission so far.

1.) Just because you have a beautiful face doesnt mean people will listen to you. The Spirit is the one who touches peoples heart.

2.) Some companions that I get will bring out the worst in me, but thats just the Lords way of helping me rely on him so that i can grow. Ether 12: 27

3.) The fastest way to bring the spirit is to sing hymns and bear a strong but simple testimony.

4.) When I extend a commitment to someone I must be willing to change too.

5.) The longer you are out on a mission the more you see how awkward you get around Elders.

6.) No matter how long you have been out on your mission your mission President will bring up marriage at every zone conference.

7.) You will get fat no matter how hard you try.

8.) The Lord will do what he wants because He knows best and doenst care how big a fit you through.

9.) Preach My Gospel is the best book every written!!!! Right under the Book of Mormon of course.

10.) Everything I am learning now is preparing me for something better.

I love being a missionary SOOOOOOOOOO much and it makes me sad to think that I wasted the first 5 months but I have learned and i will work hard and I will never back down. If any of you want to read something amazing read section 5 of Preach My Gospel it is my favorite chapter right now. thank you all for your prayers and love I promise that I will work hard. I love the Book of Mormon so much I know that it is the word of God I know that the Atonement is real and it works for everyone. I know that Jesus Christ is my Savior and redeemer! The Gospel of Jesus Christ is true!!  I love all of you so much and I hope you are able to see all the blessings the Lord has given you today!!! till next week.

Love sister whetten!!
