Family!! 

What a wonderful week this was. :) First your questions. Mom release date? As in when I’m coming home?  I´ll be ending my mission and heading home the15th of July. Wow crazy. Let’s not talk about that yet!  I love the new music! I listen to it everyday. I really love the song Glorious and Do you have Room. Thanks again for sending that :)

This week was really good. We found a new family to teach!! they are a family of 4 and are awesome. The only problem is that the parents are not married. SO what do we do? Talk to them about the temple, and it worked! The next day (yesterday) the mom was talking to us on the way to church and told us she talked to her husband after we left and she wants to marry him in the temple and he said the same. SO they are going to get married civilly so they can be baptized as a family and then be sealed in a year. WOW!  The Lord is amazing. Such a miracle that that happened! They really are such an amazing family and I love them so much.  They are all going to come to church next week. 

Alright, next family. We got a reference the other day about another family that just moved to our area. They have received a lot of lessons and are married so they can be baptized but they just have to come to church. We passed by for them and taught them with our new Ward mission leader. They really want to come to church and promised us that they will come but in the moment they can’t because her husband works on Sunday and their 6 month old baby is really sick so they can’t leave. BUT they will attend I know it!  So we are very happy with them as well. 

We are working very hard with the Bishop and he really is getting better.  We feel more support and love from him and the ward.  He does some things and says some things that are very harsh and our investigators don't like it.  We have been pretty worried about it so yesterday we decided to go and talk with him about that and some other worries. Everything seemed to work out ok so I think when something happens, if we talk to him immediately afterwards it will work out so much better and help him a lot. 

This week was really amazing and we found a lot of families to teach FINALLY!!  We are so happy.  Also I don’t remember if I told you about an investigator in my other area named Guillermo?  Well my daughter sent me a photo of his baptism!!  SO HAPPY!  

Yesterday I was called on to give a talk at church.  I shared a few things written and it was amazing to feel the spirit just take over. I´m not kidding, you know how President Gottfredson got all red and firm when the spirit took over him, it was something like that (except I was not all red) but I could feel my whole body get so excited about missionary work and member missionaries. It was an incredible experience. I love my mission!

Well family that´s about it for this week. I hope you all have a great week and love Halloween. We are going to dress up this year as missionaries ;) haha.  I told that to one of our investigators and they just started laughing. This is probably the last week I have together with Hermana Comán so we are going to work SOO hard this week so she can finish strong here. 

I´m so happy and I love my Savior. I testify to you all the the second coming is so close. I PROMISE you that you do NOT want to be unprepared for that day.  IF YOU ARE NOT READY NOW, YOU WILL NOT BE READY LATER!!! I plead with you all, PLEAD, that you will prepare for that day. We don’t know when it will come and I want my family to be together forever.    

I love you my family. This is a wonderful and amazing time to be living in this world. There are so many things that are coming to pass and I can not wait for the day that the Savior will come. Be strong and be examples and a light of Christ at all times. I love you!

Until next week

love,

Hermana Tycksen
