Sore Legs, Headaches, and Strong Spirits‏ Sent: Mon 10/13/14 4:15 PM

Dear Mom,
    Well this week is good. we are working hard and it feels good. something about being on a bike makes you really feel like a missionary. like this week we were leaving a member’s house who speaks mostly Chinese and their kid is struggling, a lot. the mom asked us come over and visit with the family. When we left we saw a lady talking to her friend and we over hear that she is talking about us. we end up talking to her for about an hour. she studies religions and loves ours. she actually said that she knows its the truest one out there and that she would be a member if her husband and family were not so against it. so we will see her at a family history fair in a few weeks and that will be awesome! there really are people out there who want to hear this gospel, sometimes we lose sight of that.
   the zone is doing good. i think i am going to not be Zone leader next transfer, so that will be weird day! i dont know when my last conference is. i may not have one since Christmas is so close! 
   well something hit me this week in my studies, the atonement is so powerful and real. now every missionary says this but the enabling power of the atonement really kicked in this week for some reason. i am trying to stay focused and diligent all the way to the end and sometimes that is just so hard. i am so thankful for this power that gives all of us the power to do the things we need to do to make this world a better place.
   Well, it seems like the race went good. so lacey, did win or something. did you at least beat the barbies.... okay latest incoming news is that lacey dominated!!! should i be surprised? ha Chan you did pretty good!!! 19th with the baby weight! sympathy weight is a real thing i hear!
