My goodness. As I was reading the message my mom sent me, I couldn't help but almost cry. I have tears in my eyes and my heart and love goes out to every one of my family members that are passing through this extremely tough time. I want you all know that this is part of God's Plan for us. That we have to go through trials and tribulations and loss. The purpose of these trials and tribulations are to make us all stronger!! I want you all to know that I KNOW that my Uncle Eric is in a better place - A LOT better place. And I know that he has the opportunity to continue learning and growing on the other side. I also know that as we continue striving to do our best every single day, which clearly is possible, we WILL be able to see him again in a much better place! This gospel gives me so much hope and I hope as well that you can all feel the same!
I don't have much else to say this week. We are doing really good here in Oaxaca and it's such a blessing to be able to be serving other people and sharing the HOPE that this amazing message gives to ALL that are willing to accept it!! We will be having a baptism this week and I'm so dang excited and "contento" (happy) as we say here in Mexico! I know that as we fast and pray as did the missionaries in the Book of Mormon, we will have the spirit with us and we will grow in our faith. This church is true and we are ALL so blessed to know the truth. I love you all so much and my heart and love is with you all in this time of trial! Stay strong and rely on God. We are not strong enough to make it through this life without Him!
