This is probably cuz we just made brownies for p-day. Cuz we´re awesome like that.
Anyways. I just want to share a short message this week. We've been trying to use more power in less words (because we don´t have time to talk with people, we are always constantly running to the next appointment)
And there is a fun truth that happens when one is forced to stick to the basics and avoid "fluff". Say what you mean and mean what you say. one of the best ways to do this is have an end goal. ALWAYS have a goal. As missionaries we always have the goal of their salvation, but as well as that we have simple short term goals, for example, Attend Church, read the scriptures, pray, hold a Family Home Evening with their family. Then we teach the truth behind the principle (God is our loving Heavenly Father, and because of this role in our lives, He wants that we communicate with Him.) And they then have the choice to accept or no.
So here is my message:
Know who you are. Thus, know your purpose. Follow that purpose with every ounce of strength you have. Sacrifice for this purpose. After all that. wait.
and wait.
and you will receive your reward.
Oh! and we built a roof of a member out of concrete this week! it was awesome!
Anyways.

I had asked Nicholas if they only had a hot plate to cook on:
We have a stove and oven. and make all sorts of stuff. Like we made brownies today and make pancakes with all sorts of stuff. We are very well fed. (and yes we occasionally add vegetables. occasionally.) fruits are much more common.
