hey mom

this week was pretty nice. well the senior couples didnt make me a birthday cake but the nolls bought me a small candy bar. sister ndiwalana, the sister who is awesome here, got me the biggest candy bar that you candy find here in Tanzania and she is a missionary who lives off of what we get every month! i got some chips too, pringles, ha.  i hope that i get my packages soon. our zone conference wont even be until november next transfer so i will still have to wait. they might be here already but they dont send them. they wait until some one comes from nairobi. im glad that you guys will be sending a halloween package because i miss candy a ton haah.

 

i will try my best to send more pics but its kinda tough here because i cant just stick my camera into any computer i see because people can get viruses on them and then all my pics could be deleted but i will send some soon. im glad that sami is loving school. i cant believe that she is learning how to read now.  im really excited for conference. i think i need a little spiritual boost from the apostles and stuff even tho i guess you could say im on a spiritual high all the time haha. i hope you told alex and kenzie that i said happy birthday. and ava and joey and my other cousin who i think has the same birthday as me hahah. ps dont tell me much about how conference is because we wont get it until a week or two or three.

well this week went by really fast. we had a nice DA this week. we had a good spiritual thought too. the lady there told the sisters that they needed to get married to a RM or at least a worthy priesthood holder. it was kinda powerful. she kinda blasted them and us. but like for us she was telling us that we need to be worthy RMs and stuff when we get back so we can marry a girl because her salvation kind of depends on it too. so that was nice. this week i aslo had the hottest day of my mission ever. we went to go grab some veggies and put up some flyers and then we went to the church. by the time we got there my shirt was soaking wet with sweat. the moisture is killer. i couldn't even do anything after that. luckily we had a lesson at the church or i wasnt going to go anywhere. haha. we got a new swahili teacher so that is nice. my swahili might improve now. he hasnt taught us yet but he got hired so hopefully i will learn something that will help me this week. we have been getting along with members better now because my new comp is here. its nice to go to members and have them like for us to be there. other than that, thats pretty much what has happened this week. this next week should be good we are planning on doing a lot of contacting so we can get more people.

well i hope you guys are having a great time and i love you guys a bunch.

love reese
