Hello Everyone!!!!!
So the Cambo word of the week is well.... I can't think of a
word I know that I haven't taught you guys yet so I will do one next week.....
well okay I know a lot more than what I have taught but its not easy to write
out some things because it is just so long...
Oh something I have become obsessed with here are Vietnamese
spring rolls... so they aren't fried and are actually healthy! and are wrapped in
this rice paper thing... and they are so good! Sister Pen and I will go on
spring roll cravings and go and get some from the Asian store! yummm!!!!!
Well so the mission tour was amazing! We had Elder Juan A.
Uceda come and Elder Weatherford T. Clayton come and speak to all of us
missionaries. So I loved what Elder Uceda said and haha Sister Bird Described
it as I love you guys, I love you guys, I love you guys, AND REPENT!, I love
you guys...... it is true and he did it with so much love and also he was
funny! He also talked about how when we as missionaries were set apart as
missionaries, the very hands of Jesus Christ were placed on my head through my
stake pres. - President Davidson. and he kept repeating this over and over in
different ways to us with tears in his eyes and about how we are indeed
literal representatives of Christ and he said it so much better but it was
powerful.
Also President Blatter picked 24 missionaries from the
Wa-Tac to have interviews yesterday with these general authorities and Sister
Pen and I were one of those and I had the opportunity to go with Elder Clayton
who was just called as one last conference (speaking of which conference is in
a month and I'm so excited!) and was actually a mission president in Canada and
started the same time as when President Blatter started so he had it cut short
so be of service somewhere else... Well he is a very in tune man with the
spirit and when I walked in I shook his hand and the spirit in that room was so
strong and I felt like I walked into the temple! He had me say the prayer and
that was intimidating but he was so loving and knew exactly what I needed to
hear and at the end it was powerful because all of a sudden he started to talk
to Heavenly Father as if he was in the room and I wouldn't doubt that he wasn't
in the room.. and if not him for sure angels! And he prayed for me and I don't
even remember everything but I know how it felt and I felt loved and Protected
and felt like I was given added strength!
I know that this is the Lord's kingdom on the Earth and I
don't even doubt it... it truly makes me sad when I see families who are great
Christian families who could totally be LDS but just don't realize that there is
more truth that they are missing and I'm so thankful I know it and am sharing it
to the world... I just wish they would listen more because THIS IS SALVATION WE
ARE TALKING ABOUT!!!!! Love you all and hope this week you are able to remember
Jesus even more in your every hour this week!

Pic 5 I made friends with this horse and it was cute because
we prayed by the horse before we started to knock and with its head it kept
pushing my arm to pet and as soon as I would (after the Prayer) it would look away....
he was funny!
This is a part of an email I wrote to my mom when she mentioned getting emotional while reading my letters, "Oh man it's okay... haha its funny Sister Pen is pretty bad
when someone else is testifying and they start to cry then she starts to cry
and says don't cry.. its pretty funny and ya it is a cool experience and I was
talking to pres. and he was like "Well you have had an interview with a
bishop, stake president, mission president, and now a general authority."
and I said ya I'm working my way up:) it was funny but true... pretty cool!"
