Hey Everyone,

This week was great we started it off with Sunday dinner with a member who incidentally has one of the biggest collections of Star Wars i have ever seen in my life. Literally it was one room, floor to ceiling of just collections from Star Wars, It reminded me of Disney World, i miss it so much! He had a helmet that was Darth Vader and with a speaker inside so we all tried it on and it was pretty cool! We also had a great ward activity where we acted out stories from the Book of Mormon and just with random things it was hilarious. I was the Tree of Life from the dream of Lehi. jeje, We also had a Junta de zona, or a zone meeting and it was great! we talked about being safe and doing crazy things. i wanted to jump up and share some tips from karate, but i decided not to. Anyway, today we headed to Bolichi! super fun, for the sisters we got to wear pants, it was great, i miss wearing jeans. Anyway, we were playing and a few woman came and sat in the back and just watched us. Practically the whole time, and later some of the Elders came up and talked with them they were from another religion but wanted to watch us play.

At first i was like that's cool, and then i remembered that no matter what we do we are always being watched and that someone will always note or see how we act, how we talk and how we are. I think that is one of the most important things that we have, is our ability to show who we are through our actions, if we can show Christ through what we do, how amazing is it when people feel good just to be around you not because your popular or have the latest gadget, but that you are a good person, Our examples mean everything to others, and if we fall others will too. Be happy, people like happy people. (quote from a good friend). I love you all, do your best and show who is Christ!

Always Happy,
