Service

Dear, Family
 This week has been a busy one we have had heaps of Service opportunities that have left not much time to teach and find which has been really sad that I think about it. But we cleared a block of land and literally it was 6 feet tall in a lot of spots so what we would do is clear most of it with the wiper snipper and mowed the rest it took 4 hours and then the next day we had a sister Anger from the ward call and ask if we could help he take some stuff to the dump and pick some other stuff up and so we did intended to only take and hour but it took 3. Then the next day we did some service for our Investigator Krystal we mowed her lawn and it took 1 1/2 hour then we had sports night that Friday and only 18 people showed up wasn't very effective but I cooked some sausages for it was fun. But Saturday we did some more service for our investigator Andreaus and we helped mow his yard and pull weeds  took about an hour but boy all the service has made me so fatigued. But the Mosquitos have been really bad here during all the service ever while teaching outside I have gotten eaten I have 57 mozzie bites so ichy!!! But we had a miracle Sunday we were door knocking and we found an aboriginal man his name is Opheus  his sister is the hospital and his mother had passed away 4 months ago and he expressed to us that he just felt lost and that he would feel better perhaps if he was back in prison with all the worries that happen in the world and he is one of those lost souls and we were able to sit outside is home and teach him a bit of the plan of Salvation and to speak about the Atonement of Christ and His Resurrection. He seemed so grateful to learn and to have us there he invited us back and we left him with the commitment to pray because he had expressed to us that he felt he couldn't pray cause he didn't feel worth we shared 2 nephi 32 8-9 and he just seemed so relieved. He was prepare and we were able to find him. I love the Lord and I'm grateful for all he does for us!!! I love my Heavenly Father! I love the Family he has given me!!! I hope you all have a wonderful week and my they heart draw close to him during these Easter season where we look towards he Resurrection and not Eggs and Bunnies. I love you!
