Hola Familia! 

Miracles are happening here in the Kennewick Park ward! The Lord is blessing us so much and it is so amazing! As we constantly strive and act in faith the Lord continually blesses us with people to teach and spiritual experiences. I am so grateful for that and for the Book of Mormon which has blessed my life more that i could have ever imagined! That Book has brought me closer to Christ than any other book on this planet, it is so amazing it provides another witness that Jesus Christ is my savior and Redeemer. Every time i read it i feel the spirit testifying to me that it is true and as i pray and ask my father in heaven he also tells me that it is true i love it so much! Sorry for that i just thought i would share my testimony really fast, because i don't feel like i do enough in these emails and i want all of you to know how much i love this gospel and the teachings of Christ 

On Monday- we had our regular p-day thing just go and shop and eat and email and then played basketball and soccer so that was awesome, Then we had a lesson with Garrett a super awesome guy who is interested in learning more about the LDS religion, but not necessarily interested that much about joining so we went over and taught the restoration and talked with him a little bit and told him that if he wanted to figure out if this was true to just read the book of Mormon and pray about it , because everything rests on that and if you will do that God will answer your prayers and tell you that it is true. so then we left, he was a awesome guy and is super solid hopefully he will give us a call so we can go back and teach him.

Tuesday- We got to go and serve in the bishops storehouse and fill out orders for like Yakima and stuff so that was way awesome and to be able to provide people that are a little less fortunate with food and supplies it was way fun! Then we tried by a couple of people it was awesome then we went and had dinner with the Martin family and taught them about the Plan of Salvation which is very interesting because they have a athiest background so we ahd to explain that this is Gods plan for us and that we were in heaven before we were here and that there is a purpose for us here on earth and there is somewhere that we are going after this, it was way cool. It was a good lesson and they loved it and committed to be at church that week. so that was way cool!

Wednesday we had exchanges so i was with elder Palmer, and we had district meeting it was way awesome, we learned about charity the power of prayer and we invite they commit and we follow up, so it was a awesome district meeting, we were in Elder Palmer's area so we tried by a few people and talked to a lot of people on the streets it was a really good day i enjoy being with elder Palmer he is a spiritual giant! he is awesome! I have learned so much from him!

Thursday we had service at the ARC. That is always interesting. Helping mentally handicapped for a few hours. But I have learned to think of them this way. I heard a story of one who had got his patriarchal blessing. It said you have been given this disability because you were one of the angels who personally escorted Satan out of heaven. You have been given this to protect you from him. That's basically what is said. So I actually believe that for a lot of them. It gives me a different feel and perspective. Its cool. So next time you see a person with a mental disability, think of that and pay attention to how you feel. Its a cool feeling! Its amazing i love it so much! 

Friday was our weekly planning day. Those take forever. When have to plan our whole next week out. But we had dinner with the Sloan's. They had invited a non member, so that was cool! We got to share our favorite scriptures in the Bible And Book of Mormon mine was 1 Corinthians 13 all about charity and Alma 7 all about how Christ suffered for our pains and hardships as well as our sins, and just share our testimony's. It was awesome!

We had a really good lesson with the Greenlands on Saturday. I shared Mosiah 2: 6. And just talked about priorities and where they should be at. Adam said that he would be at church on Sunday. Its funny, their 2 year old daughter calls us "Amen". That is our nickname. Super funny. She is also getting them to have family prayer every night. So the 2 year old is doing work! Kelcie is doing great she is reading and praying and so that is awesome! 

Sunday was AWESOME. We were about 15 min into sacrament meeting and none of the people we invited showed up. But then all of the sudden, we had 3 investigators and Adam came!!! And a few less actives we have been trying to get to come. It was such a blessing i was so grateful it was a great day in church Later that day we went to try by a potential, Jesus. (He is Mexican) A girl opened the door. We asked for Jesus. He was busy, but she told us she is a member of the Church and she has been talking got Jesus about contacting us because they need a blessing and want to come back. Jesus is not a member, so we where like woah! That whole situation was not expected. Little miracles happen all the time. A lot of good happened this week. loved everything about this week it was amazing!
