Thank you for the emails and thank you for your continuous support and prayers. I love getting mail every once in a while as well. It's a nice surprise and it always reminds me that I have people cheering me on back in Oregon. I can't always find the time to write, but I'm working on it. Thank you again!
We had a lot of service opportunities again this week. It feels so good to serve. We helped a family sack raw rice on the side of the road for about 20 minutes. We were just walking and I felt impressed to stop as my companion kept walking. So we offered help and I was really surprised when they didn't turn it down. They were really grateful because they had been working for hours. After we found out they had been taught by Elders in the past. This experience really, really taught me again that the Lord is aware of the minor details of our lives, and He makes us instruments to plant seeds in the hearts of His children until the time that they will accept the restored Gospel.
I know that our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ live and love us. Every family needs the Gospel of Jesus Christ to be truly happy and to have an eternal family in the presence of God. I know we all have power to share this message, just like the talk of Elder Bednar from General Conference.
General Conference was really great. All of my questions were answered and I really received a lot of revelation. Isn't it great to know these truths?
I hope that you will all continue to be examples in word and deed and share these truths with your friends and neighbors and don't be afraid to invite them to learn more!
We visited one sister this week that has been rejected and cast out by her friends because she invites them to meet the missionaries and be taught. We shared with her a verse from the New Testament about being rejected for Christ's sake and the blessings we have in heaven. I can't remember the verse right now and I can't find it now on lds.org, but I know everything has an eternal blessing for our efforts and courage.
Love you all,
Sister Santa
