Missing Lake Powell but Loving the Miracles in Finland!


What is up family!

Lake Powell sounds like a blast, I love that place. I am stoked to go again next year! And I am glad Nate is well adjusted, gives me hope for being a normal human being when I get back haha but no promises... I am getting way awesome missionary tan lines though so I got that going for me!

Anyway it was a great week! We had zone conference on Wednesday so we were out of our area for a couple days. Those long train rides are always fun and it was great to gain more wisdom from our mission president. It rained a lot this week, which is actually great for missionary work because everyone is at home! And it makes things more exciting. We have umbrellas but my feet just end up being soaked. One day we were walking and I stopped to write something down in my planner and Sister Harris just starts laughing at me. I didn’t know why at first but then I looked down and I was standing in a big puddle! Haha I didn’t even notice because my feet were already so wet! I am going to buy more waterproof summer shoes today.

We are seeing so many miracles in our area, I cant believe how much God blesses us every day! We talk to the coolest people and 2 of our investigators came to church this week. Our Finn girl investigator was mistaken for another missionary, it was pretty funny :) it is quite the thrill to teach in Finnish and continue to speak to people. Sometimes I get frustrated with learning the language but that really is only when I feel too unmotivated to study. As long as I do what I need to do then I know I will learn what I need to learn! I am more grateful everyday for being able to serve in this beautiful country and for being able to rely so wholly upon my Savior. He is so patient with me!

Time is so warped here, sometimes I feel like it flies by and other times last week feels like forever ago!  I am glad everyone is doing well, one month until the wedding! I am sure you are freaking out Rach :)

Kuitenkin, I love you all and hope you have a great week!!!

Do your best and forget the rest!
