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.
