หนูตายแล้ว

Hello. Another great week in the old capital of Thailand. Exciting news this week is that we killed the rat that was eating our shoelaces but we can't find it in the oven. We poisoned it and know its in there because it smells! Hahaha. But no more eaten shoelaces.

Taught English to the military again. They did the hokey pokey haha. 

I went on a switch off with Elder Blocker in Don Muang. We were in Rangsit together. Now he's a ZL. He's a way hard worker and loves the people. I learned a lot and it was very fun. 

The next day we had Mission Tour with Elder Evans from the 70's who gave a talk in the last General Conference. It was good. 

We were visiting an investigator and helping him with translating an email when an Indian guy sat down next to us and we taught him and we will refer him to the missionaries in New Delhi. It was pretty cool. 

10 eye doctors from America came to church and I had to translate for them at church. Yaay! I hate translating.

We met this cool 18 year old named Awb (Idk how to spell it in english) and his friend Urn. They're pretty dope. Awb wants to quit smoking and learn which religion is true, so he's golden.

This week I want to talk some verses in Alma 26 which is my favorite chapter in the Book of Mormon right now. It's in verse 14-16

14 Yea, we have reason to praise him forever, for he is the Most High God, and has loosed our brethren from the chains of hell.
15 Yea, they were encircled about with everlasting darkness and destruction; but behold, he has brought them into his everlasting light, yea, into everlasting salvation; and they are encircled about with the matchless bounty of his love; yea, and we have been instruments in his hands of doing this great and marvelous work.
16 Therefore, let us glory, yea, we will glory in the Lord; yea, we will rejoice, for our joy is full; yea, we will praise our God forever. Behold, who can glory too much in the Lord? Yea, who can say too much of his great power, and of his mercy, and of his long-suffering towards the children of men? Behold, I say unto you, I cannot say the smallest part which I feel.

There's so much to thank and praise God for since I've started my mission. So many miracles and great experiences that have happened. It's always good to reflect on all that you have and all the many blessings you have and thank and praise God for these things. Bringing God's children out of the darkness and into the light of God's love has been such a blessing and has changed me immensely. This work is true and I couldn't imagine doing anything else. It's so much fun and rewarding being a missionary. It's so awesome. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity to spread the good word of God with people who are searching for the truth. I know Jesus Christ is the Savior and Redeemer of the world and through him all things are possible. I love you all and miss everyone!

The computer isn't working so no pictures this week. Here is some old pictures of old Temples
