I was so excited to read your adventures up in Stanley and that Dad
could rest for a second of time and that you guys could do some really
fun impromptu stuff. I bet that was really interesting for mom. Thanks
to Benny for writing me. That really meant
a whole lot to me. I am so happy that you are diligently preparing for
the mission.
Mom was right I don't have a whole lot of time to write a letter,
but I did want to write a few little things. We are working with one guy
named Marco lately. He's really awesome. He's 23 and sosososososo
excited to get baptized. The problem is that he
has smoked and drank for 8 years and he has a girlfriend. He loves the
Book of Mormon and loves loves loves going to church, He also has some
doubts about Joseph Smith. He knows the church is true, but he isn't
sure that Joseph Smith was really a prophet. It
is kind of strange, but thats how he feels. We are helping him
strengthen his testimony of prophets this week. He has practicaly
stopped smoking and drinking completely so that is pretty awesome. The
YSA are really working hard with him to get him excited to
get baptized in the following weeks.
We have been praying like crazy for the past couple of weeks to get
some new investigators and referrals and yesterday the Lord answered
our prayers. We got 2 from members and 2 new people that came to church
this week. It really was awesome. I love it
when people come to church and then they feel the spriit. The church
really is true. I am so eternally grateful to the Savior and to my
Father in Heaven.
Thanks to everyone for the prayers. I really feel them.
Love Hermana Christensen

The truth. Where to look when you have questions |
The walls of Peru.
Yeah that's broken glass there on the top. Seriously though, it is
really really common no matter how strange or tacky it looks
