Hey everyone!!!! Im loving being a missionary. I love waking up everyday knowing that Im in the service of the Almighty God. I have grown to love him so much. Today our zone of 20 plus missionaries went to the Temple. The Temple here in the Dominican Republic is so beautiful. I also love being in air conditioning for a little bit. hahahha. I really love the peace in the tempe though. It really does lift all the berdens off my back. I can sit back, relax and learn more of the plan that God has for us. While I was sitting and thinking I learned many new things about the creation. It was an amazing experiance. As of two weeks ago, there was a fraud on my mission card. all my money was taken. So I had a little bit saved in cash but that quickly went out. This last week I was living of nothing. I had 0 pesos. It was super hard. I felt horrible for being even poorer than the people here. It really is hard for the people. I have been so blessed in my life. I have had everything at my fingertips. BUt you´ll never realize it, until its not there. Well thats about all that has happed for awile. OUr area is a little slow but it is picking up pace. We are contacting tons and tons. But we have found some really cool people. I love you all and can´t wait to read you letters.

It's amazing how much the temple can help us...even if we're just sitting still and pondering! :) I'm glad you had a good time...I hope to visit at least one foreign temple in my life time.
