Wow, I can honestly not believe that I´m already writing again! Time
is flying by so quickly.

This last week nothing unusual really happened. The ward members here
like to feed us, which is nice of them, but I feel that we lose a LOT
of time by having a lunch with members every day. It´s hard to be
charitable and grateful sometimes! But I just need to get better...

This week we continued to work with two women who are preparing to be
baptized this Saturday. One of them has been investigating the church
for a year, and finally decided to act and get baptized. The other
lady is her friend, that has a lot of drama in her life (divorce,
daughter with depression...) a lot of problems in the family. Trying
to help them both with their problems has made me so grateful for my
relative problem-free life!! Also there is an investigator and a
member here who are both facing the problems and drama caused by
breaking the law of chastity. I am so grateful for the commandments!!!
It is soo obvious why they are so important when you see the suffering
and problems caused in the lives of those who break them. Truly they
make us free.

So, are you all looking forward to Thanksgiving? There´s no
thanksgiving here- just another normal day. Everyone is already
getting ready for Christmas! There are lights in the streets and all
the holiday decorations in the stores :) It almost makes it worth
being cold...

Not really much that is noteworthy has happened...I finished the Book
of Mormon again today :) It´s interesting that I never noticed how
much it talks about the ministery of angels at the end...In Morôni 7
he talks about the ministry of angels to men- that they manifest them
to those who have a vigorous faith and a mind firm in sanctity (vs
30), and of the importance of this ministry to prepare the way and
fulfill the covenants of the Lord. I had never noticed before that one
gift of the spirit is to see angels and ministrating spirits (10:14).
How neat! I decided that I would like to develop this spritual
gift...so we´ll see how that goes! But it was just something that
stuck out that I have never really thought before.

I hope you all have a great week and a great Thanksgiving! Eats lots
of turkey for me, and cornmeal rolls :D
