Hello and Namaste to everybody

I hope y'all had a wonderful Christmas. We had a great Christmas here in Minnesota.

We ate good food played board games and we went sledding and we went caroling at night . That day was the best!!!!!!!!!!

I hope and wish that y'all have a  happy new year. Its a great time of a year for everybody , a new beginning.

We are having super cold days right now here in here i think its -6 right now. very very cold.I am loving my work here and love all the things that happens everyday in our life. Sometime we hav some rough days some sad days but at the end it all goes very well. We all need to believe that we will hav good days and we will have one for sure. God just does not wants us to sit down and have a good day but he wants us to go out and do stuff and then he can show us how beautiful is world and how good things are there for us.I hope and pray that this new year will bring lots of hope and light in everybody's life.

One of the great thing happens to me these past days were.I was able to meet the Grandson of the couple missionary who helped my DAD get baptized when he was in Hong kong. We were so close to each other but we never knew who we were. But this great and exciting union of us has brought GREAT joy to me and my family . There are lots of other people who are filled with joy as they heard about this message. Even thou we are far from each other ,we are all here so close so together because of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I love u all and so so thankful for all y'all have done. My heart is filled with gratitude towards all of u and GOD. God bless u all.I love u.

Hello and Merry Christmas

How are u all??I hope everybody is fine as this beautiful weather here in Minnesota. I just fell in love with snow here in Minnesota. I think i wanna move to Minnesota and stay here. As i loved the snow, i also learned to love the cold weather here.

So how is everybody Christmas plan coming up?? I heard many plan with your family and i loved loved loved getting Christmas cards from you. We have a small Christmas tree in our apartment and i put all the gifts and cards i got around that tree. It looks amazing!!!!!!!!!

I hope and pray that this wonderful Christmas season will bring lots of happiness and joy in your life. May we all remember our Savior and his birth and look for opportunity to serve and love other like our Savior did. 

My companion is getting transfer to a different area and i am getting a new companion on Wednesday , who is coming directly from thunder bay , Canada. I am looking forward to have a great time with my new companion too. Change is good thing in life but also sometime it can be hard. Its hard for me to say Goodbye to my old companion. I read scripture today about change and i would like to share some with you 

Alma 5:12 "And according to his faith there was a mighty change wrought in his heart. Behold I say unto you that this is all true."

Mosiah 5:2 " And they all cried with one voice, saying: Yea, we believe all the words which thou hast spoken unto us; and also, we know of their surety and truth, because of the Spirit of the Lord Omnipotent, which has wrought a mighty change in us, or in our hearts, that we have no more disposition to do evil, but to do good continually."

And i knw that Gospel of Jesus Christ can bring that mighty change in our

Heart. I love u all and soo soo soo thankful and grateful for everything that u have done for me.

Hello and Namaste to everybody 

  

How are you?? I hope everybody and everything is fine as the bright sunshine.

Actually it is bright sunshine right now . When the sun hits the white snow it sparkles likediamond and your eyes gets dizzy. Right now it looks a snow desert in  Minnesota.Even though there is bright sun outside it is awesomely freezing cold . This week the weather have in single digits number. If u stay outside for a while u face will be numb with coldness and u can feel no cold after time. I put my sweater , my jacket and ear muff . my jackets , my boots , my scarf and my Binnie on my body and the coldness still pierce through those things. But even in this cold i concluded that i like winter more than summer. Winter is the best season ever. I things 

one of the reason that i learn to love this winter season is the hard times i had in winter . It taught me many valuable lesson in my life and beyond.

We are having great time . My companion injured his leg and he is in his crutches right now. It was thanksgiving football that got him injured. But he still have zeal to work even in crutches. 

My work is going as wonderful as the snow looks in bright sun. We are teaching some awesome people in the world right now.
We are also teaching couple of African people and i so amazed by there belief and faith in God. I have not seen any among the people like them who are so devoted to God and have willingness and desire to do the Gods will. You can always feel the spirit when u teach them.

I love being missionary and with all your love and support i can do anything  in the world. I love u very much. Merry Christmas. Ho Ho Ho

Hello and Namaste

How is everybody? I hope all is well. And ya Happy December.

The Christmas season is here and its so awesome . You can see lights all around the places its glowing every where. In our apartment we had a small Christmas tree with lights on it and i really love it.Some small thing like that bring so much of great joy in our life.I thought about theGratitude a lot this last month with the season of thanksgiving and my soul is humbled a lot. My thanks and appreciation for all of u are beyond the measure. I wish i could give u all a BIG HUGright now.Your simple mail bring joy to my heart and i am most grateful for that. My love for all of you is as the top of Mount Everest. I am thankful for the cold here in Minnesota which i come to love so much . I have  been astonished by so many great but yet simple things Lord has blessed us with. 

I love the scripture in Moroni 10:20 "Wherefore, there must be faith; and if there must be faith there must also be hope; and if there must be hope there must also be charity."

And i knw that to be true without faith, hope and charity there is nothing.Recently we hav been blessed with great investigators who have willingness and desire to learn the gospel. And of them is a Nepali sister. She has been coming to church and loves it. Her English is great and we helped her make friends with member.
It is going out great with her and she has great potentials of being 1st Nepali sister to be baptized here in Minnesota.
I don't know how much i am converted,but every time i feel like i am falling away i remember the words of President Uchtdorf
"If you define hypocrite as someone who fails to live up perfectly to what he or she believes, then we are all hypocrites. None of us is quite as Christlike as we know we should be. But we earnestly desire to overcome our faults and the tendency to sin. With our heart and soul we yearn to become better with the help of the Atonement of Jesus Christ."
I find joy and relief in the words of our PROPHETS and the receive my answers and strength through them and scriptures which i hold dearly to me. And in this mission i found out the meaning of this life , i found myself and what it means to be a child of GOD.I love u all and thankfull for each and everyone of you.

Hello and Namaste

How are u all?? hope all is well . 

With this season of thanksgiving may we all be thankful for everything we have.

We dont have lot of time to email today coz mission president has limited our time for today.but i am still thankful for whatever i have.

We had a crazy week this week. One of the crazy thing was .One of house we went the other day was on fire when we went by same place after an hour. We both were oh NOO..i hope that was not us . Pretty scary huh.

another thing is it was super super cold these last couple of day and we were knocking the doors and after an hour we felt everything was numb coz of cold.tracting in cold is very very cold , only thing we want to do is get inside a house as soon as we knock but it doesn't really happen that way. But i love it. Like many things in our life cold is also given to us by God so i have started to embrace the cold and i dont feel cold anymore.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL OF YOU.I HOPE EVERYBODY WILL HAVE FUN TIME WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS. 

i love u all and thank u for all u do.

Hello and Namaste to everyone.

 So it is kinda a chile outside today but there is a bright blue sun. Ohh i meant bright sun and blue sky. How r y'all? I hope and pray everything is going good. We had a very good sabbath day yesterday. One of the sister who is leaving for her mission gave her farewell talk and it was wonderful. the n looked back in my past trying to remember my talk . Well at first they dont call it farewell talk and i didnt even give a talk when i left.

But anyway there are so many time when they will just call u to give lesson in church and bear your testimony and its a exciting and awesome time.

My mission is going so so so so so so Well!!!!!!!!

I just love it and specially now when its getting colder. When we go out and knock doors to talk to people , our first hope is plz let us inside your home. Last time when i was here i was on my bike and i still remember my eyes froze while biking, i fell so many times but at the end it was the sweetest experience of ALL. I just love being missionary now.And to see many joyful things that our heavenly father has prepared for us. We are all blessed to have this wonderful time so let us rejoice it and fine relief in the love of our savior Jesus Christ. President Hinckley said " Life is not just to be Endured but to be enjoyed too!!!. I Juts want u all knw that I LOVE YOU and no matter what happens in our life its not gonna change. Thank u so much for your kindness and love for me without it i wouldn't have made this mission.

Hello and Namaste to everyone 

 I hope u all had a nice, warm and sunny day today. Its sunny here today but not warm here. 

Well its Minnesota we cant complain.

  It is such and wonderful week and the things we could learn in our mission conference. I really liked Elder Godoy and all the things that he taught us. He was very enthusiastic on everything he did. I just like it!!! he was an great example of that. One thing i noticed from him was he was so active , so energetic and so comfortable on what ever he did.

His energy reminded me that we all should have same energy and smiling while we teach people . Too often we slack on these things but if we have that energy with us, it will bring to pass great things. We can also see he was soo motivated on what he did and his attitude was always jolly good. I believe in being happy on everything we do. WE gotta love everyday of our mission. If u love the things u doo u will always see the success. and i think thats what Lord wants us to do too.ITs all about our attitude!!!
I had privilege of giving priesthood to brother Anthony yesterday and it was an wonderful experience for me. It was my first time giving priesthood to anybody. 

After i gave him priesthood he said it felt like someboy was speaking to him from heaven.It was a great blessing for me. I love my mission and i love doing all things here.

I love u and thnakfull for all the letter and emails u have sent me . thank u soo much .

Hello and Namaste

It is such a wonderful cold day here. I am so amazed that Minnesota is so wonderfully COLD and beautiful. I think because of my last winter here in Minnesota i learn to love the weather here. Some Great Person said " We need to find joy even in time of our Affliction then we will b happy" and that is so true. I hope u all can find new hope and joy and happiness even in the hard times.We had our baptism last Saturday and it was awesome.It was a very happy moment for me and my companion.

We are Just trying make faces!!!!!!!!

But we see lots of blessings as we do hard work.

Since i have been in my mission i learned to work hard!!!

I knw what hard works means now. Someday i just feel so exhausted that just want to hit the bed but somehow i keep going till the end of the day.

And i knw it is only possible through some divine Help..

We are not perfect and nobody is. Only our savior Jesus Christ is.

Through him we will live again.

I love u all and thankful for all the things u doo.

Hello and Namaste to y'all

 

It is fun and exciting day today here at Minnesota because it had started snow from today.

It will be getting and colder colder everyday but one good thing is i am in a car area right now so we are in our car most of the time.But i hav to be in bike area once in a while for our missionary exchanges. As zone leader we need to exchange with all the missionary in our zone. But i love being with all the new missionary . Its fun. Our days here in Minnesota is getting shorter shorter . Its getting dark pretty soon. But we still go and teach everybody we can. Teaching is fun. We are always guided by the Holy spirit what we need to say and teach. To get that guidance is amazing. Our recent Convert is doing amazing and he is getting prepared for his priesthood and mean while we are also preparing his son to be baptize on nov 2  and he is also super excited for his baptism. We are receiving so many blessing to be able to teach so many people. We are really working for our Heavenly father. We went to primary yesterday with our investigators and it was AWESOME!

I think we sang head , shoulder , knees and toes . It was super fun.

I hope u all had some good experiences too. We look for miracles to happen everyday here in our mission but i think we also do the same in our everyday life. Look for miracles and u will find it!

I read in 1 Corinthians 1:27 "But God hath chosen the ^afoolishthings of the world to ^bconfound the wise; and God hath chosen the ^cweak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty"

And i knw its true. I love u all and pray for u. May God bless u with all things thats he had prepared for u.

And with my typing skill of Zero , i am taking more time.

Hello and Namaste

How are you all? Hope u all had a wonderful week and also wonderful time at the General Conference.

The messages were Great , wonderful and astonishing. Our Prophets and leader really are inspired from God to give all these messages. Great things are learned during this time but Great things come to pass as we do the things that we learned. We all need to act upon the counsel of our Leaders. We can see the blessings as we DO IT!

Our week was great and filled with lots of things going on. I got sick with Cold and i am still sick . Every time with this change in season i get Cold here in Minnesota. But its all good. I love cold weather now. We are already in our jackets and sweaters.

Our Investigator Bro A from Sudan is getting baptism on Oct 12 and we are super excited for that. Its gonna be awesome. He even brought a White Gown to be baptize. He said he wanted to dress like Jesus .

I will leave u with the scripture i read in bible John 6:68" Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. And i knw the Gospel of Jesus Christ have the Words of eternal life.

I love u all and thank u all for the love and care you have given me.

How is everyone doing?

Hope u had a wonderful week. 

I have the very exiciting week this past week .

Went for lots of exchanges with missionaries and had meet some fun intresting people. One of the interesting thing i did was i cooked a pigeon and ate it. Some Hmong people ( They are refugees from Thailand) gave Hmong missionaries pigeon and they didn't knw how to cook it .Even though i dont knw how to cook a pigeon i said lets cook it like a chicken and we did put some spices on it and threw down into the oven and after 30 min it was cooked  and it was good.If u haven't tried pigeon yet DO IT!!

I Read email from my home today and found out my Dear Dog "Tango" hav passed away in an accident.This had saddened my heart.We took him from street and loved him and gave him shelter but its unfortunate he died.

We are still looking for baptism in oct 12 and super excited for that. i am also excited for the General conference and hoping receive lots of revelation.

As i was reading scriptures i came across i came on ACts where it talks about conversion of Saul. Where it says "Lord, ^awhat wilt thou have me to do?

When i read that verse i felt spirit strongly and asked myself that question and i am gonna ask that question everyday in my life.
And i know as i everyday ask that question to Lord he will lead me and guide me on everything.

I pray for u all . thank u so much for all your love and kindness.

Hello and Namaste to all my Dear one"s

 

How are u all??? Hope u  had a wonderful week and hope u will keep having wonderful week.

Our Week was amazing and its beautiful days here in minnesota now.I hit my year mark this week and its was a normal day for me.I Heard some missionary burn there ties in six weeks and burns there shirt in a year mark.But not me coz i only hav couple of those. i hav seen missionary who hav 50 ties and its crazy.

The more u r in misison u see crazy and hear many crazy stuff about misisonaries.But anyway I had a wonderful sabbath yesterday and hoping to hav a wonderful  p day today.we r hoping to do lots of crazy stuff.(Joking) But we definitely want to hav fun . We r having our ups and downs with our investigator but u know without those ups and downs , the missionary work will not be fun.I am trying to think about the things we did last week but cant remember any except we went to science museum of minnesota. It was awesome.Great things are there and i saw a skeleton of a dianosours for the frist time. It was big and looked dead.

As i have been pondering in scriptures , i hav really found many good things and many good ways to see things.It hav changed my view on many aspect of our life.

Life can be hard but u gotta work hard to make it awesome right.

Well let me knw if there is something out in the world thats awesome. I am thankfull for your email and letter.

I love u all .

How is everybody? Hope everybody is doing ok?

Minnesota is getting stormy these days.But i like storms and thunder and rain. That will be awesome.So i am having a fun time here in Saint paul .

People are fun our ward is fun too. Yesterday was a awesome day at church.
WE are teaching bro . A and he is from south Sudan he came to church for second time this week. He really likes church.And he believes that's Joseph smith was a prophet of God and Our church is true.We have set a date for the 12 of oct.And he said we b baptized.
As we were sitting on the sacrament meeting and listening to testimony and i felt prompted (like i was prompted with Rafael) to ask him if he wants to bear his testimony at first he said no and he says probably next time.So i explained that this only happens a month.So didn't say anything for a while and then he asked " so what do u say when u go up there?" So kinda explain him that he can simply say how he is feeling in church and testify of Jesus Christ and also can say how u feel about book of Mormon? and he says i wanna talk about how i feel about book of Mormon so i said i will go with u if u want to share your testimony.
Then next thing we know is we are bearing our testimony and he did bear wonderful testimony about book of Mormon.
So ya that was a wonderful experience we had.

So ya  hope all of u also hav a wonderful and amazing and exciting week. Look for miracles and u will get one.I am going to Zone leader conference this tuesday and hoping to receive wonderful counsels from our mission president. You all hav a great day.

So as u all know i am back at North St Paul . It was the place where i was wen i first came here in my mission. I love to be back here. Everybody is super excited that i am back again. Everybody gave me a big hug and welcomed me, I feel Super awesome.

How is everyone doing? Hope its going wonderful everday in your life.

Minnesota is getting beautiful everyday , its not very hot right now, its is JUST Beautiful beautiful days here.

So i am super exicited today , i mean i am exicited everyday a new day , new hope , new peoples , new learning everday. So our week was awesome it was a Busy busy week. we taught a lot of people and all of them were good lessons. When we were tracting couple of days ago we saw this girl with a baby n we went to talk to her as we were talking we found out it was her baby and see looked young to us, so we asked how old is she and the answer was 15 ,i could not say anything for a moment and i paused n thought what cud i say to this girl who is 15 and hav a 2 month old baby.It was a great momemt of silience. We asked her ,what does she whats for this kid now? and she said she wants her baby boy to be a good man who will not make another 15 year old girl pregnant. As she said these things we felt prompted to promise her the blessing of gospel in her life and also her baby life.We did promise her those things and taught her restoration of the gospel and it was wonderful lesson.She said she will read book of mormon and will come to church and she did felt the love of our heavenly father and she did have desire to follow Jesus christ.We are hoping to teach her again in this week too.

As i pondered in these things i felt how gospel of Jesus Christ help us in these things and thats why we as a missionary go and preach the gospel and bring all these people of the christ.I feel happy and blessing of heavenly father as we go and talk to people and share the fullness of gospel with everone.

We also had a very funny lesson yesterday. We r teaching a boy and we called for joint teacher but many cud not make it. but one of the member said if they had change of plans they will call n let us knw ,so we called another person as a joint teacher thinking they are not gonna make.So wen we reached for our appointment we had the entire family of 8 came there and also another person whom we called also came.It was 15 people in that house while we were teaching. It was great idea. i liked it the idea of bringing the whole family for teaching appointments . so we r gonna try couple of more times n see how its gonna work.

So ya that was my week and it was good fun week. i love my mission and i know gospel will only bring happiness in everybodys life. God is great!!!!!!!!

And ya on wednesday we r going to the TWINS games . this is my first baseball game i am gonna watch if my life so i am very very very exicited.will send u pics soon.

Since we hav been tracting i hav discoverd lots of new religion in the world, some of them are Ekankar , the Urancha book etc. I was amazed to knw there are so many people who is inventing religion now a days.Its always good to know whats comming in your ways in the near future.

And our sabbath day was awesome half of the ward is gone for vacation and remaning half was all with the small babies but it is wonderful spirit u feel wen u r around those tiny lil babies. i love them , love them all.

So our mission has announsed the new mission rules in our mission.So one of them is We cannot carry our bagpacks anymore and we need to carry a sidebag. WE need to apply that rule by end of the august so i need to find a side bag for me ASAP.And also we now can wear Khaki colour or light colour of slacks (which i dont hav any) but its a good for other missionaries. Well i thing there will b many many new mission rules soon.So i am ready for change.Thank u all for your letter and email i really appreciate it.

 

 Lots of love

Hello and NAmsate to everyone

 

How is everybody's doin??

I am doing super good. Eden prairie is a super nice place.

I am loving it here.WE had a awesome week . Every day we tracted and again wen our appointment fell through, we tracted more.

And tracting is super fun , all u do is knock lots of doors and talk to few people.We were tracting this week and we meet this old lady and i dont know why but she is super anti about our church she told we r not christian and blah blah blah yada yada. Well that what i listened wen she was talking to us. i asked her what makes anybody christian ? she said we need to believe in chirst and follow him. And i was like yaaa we do that , So we r christian right? and she was again no no no. but anyways

My dear family and friends i just wanna say u our church is true and we r christians. We follow Jesus Christ and teach the right doctrines.

Anyway i love reading your Letters and email.I feel closer to God everyday in my life and i pray for you all for same thing too.Thank u so much.

Hello and Namaste To everyone

How is everybody ?? Hope u had a awesome week .Its been a wonderful week.We are having wonderful tracting these days , we like it more when its not super Hot and Humid but its all good.  Well we didnt hav a great numbers to repot to our mission president this week  but i dont think we need to have a big numbers to hav a wonderful day or week . Its the joy and happiness that we get from preaching the gospel and that what makes it wonderful.m
We are Laura and she is fantastic. She is one of our greatest finding while tracting. We tracting an apartment and thats how we found her , i wanna tract apartments more but Elder Christensen doesnt wanna do that but anyway she has been super solid since we taught her. When we taught her Word of Wisdom and she had problems with drinking coffee and since we commited her she dropped the coffee like a ROCK. She is staying solid with that.She commited to live every commandment and she said she wanna be baptise on sep 14. We said thats Great ! so now we are trying to move up the date to aug 17 and we prayed about it and felt good. We are gonna have lesson with her today and we are hoping we will be able to move it. Our area is doing awesome too there so many good people here of different faith.
There is always up n down in misson and we remember the ups and move forward with great joy and love.

Thank u for writing me mail and letters. I love u all.
