even the birds are sick here in Houston

HEY GUYS 

I'm gonna be honest. We literally didn't do anything this week cause as soon as I got better with the ugly flu, Hermana Jacobs got hit hard! It was rough, but the good news is that I cleaned our apartment really well!! 

We were able to have a few lessons with the Familia Hernández this week! Unfortunately they didn't come to church, but they are reading the Book of Mormon and have a desire to change :) our WML has been a huge help with them!

Speaking of desire, I've been thinking about desire a lot this week. I watched the 2016 and 2017 missionary training broadcasts, and I learned a lot about desire. It all starts with desire in the gospel. Desire to let the missionaries in, desire to read the pamphlet, desire to read the Book of Mormon and desire to know if it's true. We must have the desire as well as missionaries. Desire to be obedient and to help those around us. And when that desire is with true intent, the Lord can give His children really answers and show them how much He loves them. 

I am loving life here in Houston!! Spreading the gospel is the best thing I could be doing at this point in my life. The Book is so true and it can change lives if you allow yourself to drink deeply from the pages. 

Have a good week and I love you all, thanks for the support 😊😊
