This week was crazy!!! We are now covering 2 areas with 3 missionaries so we picked up a ton of new invesitgators from the other area. We are pretty much running every where to visit everyone. The changes we are seeing in everyone makes it all worth it. 

This week i really realized how blessed I am with the life that I have. One day we were out going to different appointments and we were thirsty so we went to a pulperia which is like a mini gas station with snacks and stuff. While we were waiting in line i see this little 2 or 3 year old girl run up to us and say one word. "Pisto" Looking at this little girl without any shoes on and with dirt smered across her face asking me for money just about broke my heart. Giving her the 5 lempiras that i had probably made her day. This really got me thinking about how blessed i am with the life i have. Some of the people here wonder where their next meal will come from. Really just a humbling experience being here and seeing people with so little, but yet always being happy. Thankful for the Gospel that I have and I know that each and every one of you have a lot to be thankful for aswell.

I invite all of you to take one day this week and just look for all the blessing you have. Big or small we all have alot to be thankful.

Love all of you!!
