Folks, the heat is here

June 3, 2013

Folks, the heat is here. It has been here for a while but now it is really here here. It will only get hotter, so we eat a lot of cold fruit and ice these days. It's nice :)Well... I wrote only 4 days ago so I'm not sure this will be too long, but I'll give it my best shot. I'll also send more pictures.

Funny story: We went out by the gate of the church and found a new little friend. It was a duck. It was stuck looking at its reflection for a good 20 minutes before we just left. It might still be there right now for all I know. Weird right?

We had an earthquake yesterday! It was another fun one where we were swaying in the church for a good minute or so. We were in the middle of a meeting. Our Taiwanese correlator was really scared, and the rest of us missionaries were laughing and ran to the windows to see the world move a bit . It was fun.

 We're having a baptism next week and the week after that we are excited about! 2 younger girls, Zoey and Karis are excited to follow Christ and His teachings. We'll also have President Bishop's goodbye meeting this week, so I'll let you know how that goes.

As you know, our english class has parties every 6 weeks. Well, I'm teaching my kids class I'm a child of God in english, and they are going to perform as part of it! We are trying to help the ward be more involved in missionary work ( we cannot do it without them!) and decided to throw a class for 2 weeks on how to play that song on the ukulele. They will then accompany my english class. I'm excited to see if it works out haha.

I've been studying a lot about Jesus lately. His example is just incredible. I love reading the Book of Mormon and bible side by side to learn. I want to become a better teacher of the gospel, and want to learn from the best. I'm so grateful for my Savior and His wonderful example to me and all of us. I know our family is having some difficulties lately, but I love you all and know the Lord does too. I'll keep praynig for you all. I miss you!!!

Love, Sister Smart
