I have been getting lots of letters and boxes this week. Sadly, they are mostly for Elder Foremater.... Who is now in Napier... I have got to get them up to him. I did get your birthday present. I am so excited to open it!!! We will be on exchanges for my birthday tomorrow so I will be with a different Elder. I haven't told anyone that it is my birthday, but I am going to get some of my favorite ginger beer with the money you put in my account and we will have fun!
This is the first week of my whole mission that I have ever felt homesick. It sucked! I got through it because I got some great letters from Ryan and Kylie!!!! Their letters made my day.
The lady with the cancer that we have been teaching got some good news this week. Her cancer is not spreading! The cancer is in just one spot and they are going to do surgery in January. Hopefully she doesn't have to do chemo or any other terrible treatments. She said God still wants her to live and I have to agree because He wants her to taste the beauties of the church. We got to see most all of our investigators this week. But it is getting harder and harder because school is out now and everyone's schedule is very busy. We were knocking on doors this week and ran into a Mormon that had converted to Jehovah Witness. We took a member over that knows her and he taught he whole lesson in the prayer! He talked about repentance and prophets and almost everything that they don't believe in. It was great!
On Monday we got to help someone move, and I got to drive a trailer and it was so much fun. I got to take three trips with the trailer back and forth to their house, it was so much fun.
I found this cactus plant while door knocking this week and it reminded me of home.
Every town has some sort of statue in town to take your photo at. We have this big carrot statue here in Feilding.
This is the new Elders area. We spent all day Wednesday helping them get started at moving the work along. The mountain in the back is an active volcano, it was blowing smoke when we first got there.
We are going to a members house to skype you on Christmas. We will be calling on your Christmas. (The 26th for us.). Hopefully, in the morning. I love you so much. Thank you for being on the computer today when I emailed.
Elder Tuckett
