hi fam!!

this week was wonderful! I am trainig hermana olsen from layton utah. She actually reminds me almost exactly of sadee sanders. shes so sweet. this is her first wek in the mission field. she is definitely adjsuting to the living conditions here in the d.r. i forget that iwent through that process haha. when there is big kokaraoach or lizards in our bedroon,or dominicans doing crazy things, i jsut think its normal now. we put 10 baptism dates this week. actually, i made my copm do it, she did great! she stuied french for 6 years before the mission and then got called here! shes doing incredibly well. i am so impressed. anyways, we have one family ireni, and her daughter that is old enough thtat will be baptized on the 13 of sept, francis nad miguel on the 20th and iridi and her son kelvin on the 20th as well . please pray for all of them! they all accepted their dates, but some jsut chose not to come to church this week. if they dont come to church they cant progress and gao a testimony as strongly as by going to church! also, i am living with hermana hewish, mom remerber her? her family was at the airport the day that you dropped me off. shes so sweet! anyay we are working super hard and its great to have a comp that is really excited and willing to do the work! we also go to the temple in 2 weeks so that should be soo much fun!!! 

DAD, good jobfor volunteering!! i am so proud of you!!! youll do so well!!!

well i´ll be busy this week training and preparing people for baptism! also, as i was in the trainers meeting i met 3 elders from snowflake! a fussleman, a tenney, and travis heaps cousin! i cant remeber his name, but he´s cousins with him with light bloonde hair. we were llaughing, because of course i we would find relatives in the d.r.! well  love you all! have a great week and keep moving forward  with faith! after all, thats what we have to live off of and be happy! i love you all so much and i love the lords work!
