"Who was the last person you rescued?"

Sounds like you had a fantastic missionary week Mom!!! That is exciting.  I am happy you know that it is so much better it is when members give the referrals.  You have begun a rescue effort!!!  That is one question we have really been asking people!  "Who is the last person you rescued?"  It is a deep question.  Or, it could be very simple at the same time.  It can be as easy as smiling at someone who looks lonely and sad. Or, you could invite someone to hear the missionaries and save them for the eternities.  How much do you want to save them?  We should save everyone!  Find the lost sheep, and feed them!


This week we had a fantastic Family Home Evening with this family. The mother asked us to speak on respecting your parents.  I thought, I don't know, it is just something you do. The only thing that I could think of to teach them how to have respect was to love more, so we shared everything we know about loving our parents.  Our parents are the manuals to this life.  They have taught us so much and have taken care of us all of our lives, how could we not have respect for them?  Then I bore my testimony of almost not having an awesome family to raise me up in the gospel.  You guys are so dear to me.  You are the biggest blessing that Heavenly Father has blessed me with.  A family who loves them is the greatest blessing anyone could ever have.  Then we did an awesome activity,  we broke up into teams and the parents were the captains and they gave the guidance and the kids had to listen to them.   It was an awesome lesson.  Now, another family has asked us to do it this week.

So this week I have gained a testimony of the blessings of families and how important they are in Heavenly Fathers plan. They are so important that we can be sealed to them forever.  This was so important to Heavenly Father, that this is what the first book in the Book of Mormon is about.  It's all about a family!  They have their ups and downs just like us!  I know that Moroni saw these last days and he saw that Satan's biggest target would be the family.  I love The Book of Mormon!!!!

I can't wait for General Conference next weekend!  I am hoping that our investigators come!  I got a picture from Ryan in the Conference Center at Conference.  [the young guy he baptized last year in Napier] He is so lucky to get to go to conference.   I have never been to conference, but at least I have been to the building.  

We need new investigators!!!! So hopefully this week will bring nothing but finding!!!!  I am staying here with Elder Usalai'a for another 6 weeks.  

Thank you for the thoughts that you send me each week.  I write them down and then share them with people and say that my fantastic mother helped me notice this!!!! 


Just 5 more weeks and I get to seen and talk to you on skype!!!!!  I can't wait!!!!

I love you so much!
