Hello and Namaste

How is everybody?I hope everything is going great.

WE are doing great in Minnesota.I think the rain here in Minnesota is breaking record from 1879 or something. Its all rain here.

But ya everything else is going great.Our Beloved President and Sister Clements is gone now and we have a new mission president.

They are President and Sister Forbes.We had a conference call with him yesterday and it was great.

We all are super excited to meet with him.We will be able to meet with him on Wednesday so we are looking forward to that.

President and Sister Clements made me think of how important it is for us to have mighty leaders.And it reminded me of scripture in Jarom 1:7

"And it came to pass that they came many times against us, the Nephites, to battle. But our kings and our leaders were mighty men in the faith of the Lord; and they taught the people the ways of the Lord; wherefore, we withstood the Lamanites and swept them away out of our lands, and began to fortify our cities, or whatsoever place of our inheritance."

They really were mighty leaders who taught us the ways of the Lord.We will miss them dearly.

My mission is still going fast and i am still staying strong and doing my best. Missionary work is the best work ever.

Thank you so much for you encouragement and your letter and emails.

I love u all.

Hello and Namaste to everybody

I hope everybody is doing super awesome.Thank u for y'all emails and letter , it always makes me happy to see them.

So this is a very sad week for all the missionaries here in Minnesota Minneapolis Mission. Our Mission President is leaving for his home next week.

He has served for 3 yrs now and he will be going  back. We are having a new Mission President. He is coming here on July 1st , i think his name is President Frobes from CO.

It gonna be a big great change for all of us.Our whole mission is doing super awesome right now.Everybody is working in super missionary mode right now and we are having lots of success in our mission.

I am loving this area right now. Its been a great change for me here in this area.I am constantly learning everyday.
We were able to get one of our investigator to church yesterday.At first she said no but we were persistence on getting her to and after couple of no's she finally agreed to come to church and she did come to church and she loved it and she said she will come again.That showed me the importance of being persistence.I have seen many miracles from being persistence and i know that this principle will help me rest of my life.

I love President Clements and he always reminded me of this scripture from Jarom 1:7"And it came to pass that they came many times against us, the Nephites, to battle. But our kings and our leaders were mighty men in the faith of the Lord; and they taught the people the ways of the Lord; wherefore, we withstood the Lamanites and swept them away out of our lands, and began to fortify our cities, or whatsoever place of our inheritance."

I love him dearly and he will be missed.

I love y'all to thanks for being such an great example to me.

Dear family and friends

Hello and Namaste!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope everybody is doing awesome and fantastic.

Well i am having a great time in my new area too.

So little bit about my new area. Its is absolutely different than my last area. Last time i was in heart of Minneapolis and there was so many things going on always and crazy things happening all around and it was ghetto.But i loved that place. Now i got transfer to this place called Maple Grove and it is straight suburb. This place is rich and big.There is big houses every where and no apartments.I kinda felt out of place for couple of days.But ya now i am adjusting and we have a car in this area so no more biking:(.I loved biking in my last area so hopefully we will be able to bike someday.

I am in process of learning the area , names and ward right now. Every time i go to mew area i feel like the name gets harder and harder.Learning how to say the names is a tough thing.Sp people here thought my name is too hard to say so they compared my name with a soda drink called Shasta. So they call me Shasta here.

I hope y'all have a nice and awesome day.Missionary work is the best work to do.I love u and thank u so much.

Hiiii and Namaste

So today is our transfer day and guess what....i got transferred.

So i am getting transferred to place called Maple Grove.Looks like its very very suburb. Hmmm its gonna be very  interesting for me to go from twin cities to suburb.So ya i had great time in this area and was able to learn so many things here.I will always cherish the things i have learned in my mission.

With this transfer getting over i only have 2 more transfer left in my mission.

Its going fast.Faster then i thought right now.

So today morning we were playing basketball and one of the elder who played football in high school nailed me to the ground.My left hand is hurt at wrist and i am typing with my right hand only right now.I don't think i broke it but it hurts pretty bad ,so its all wrapped in bandage.So i hope everything goes well.

Missionary work is going awesome  ,we are preparing a family to get baptize this month and couple of other people.I am sad that i will not be here for that.But i know Lord has better place for me to be at this time.I will send some pictures with my companion.I love u all and thanks for everything.

Love Elder Shrestha

Hello and Namaste to everybody

How is everybody?I hope and pray that everything is well with u guys!!

We are also having a great time here.It is always an excitement when u are a missionary.We have blessed with baptism of the sister we taught this week.

We were also filled with great joy this week by our baptism of sister Good Buffalo.Our baptism went great!!!!!!!!! We felt the spirit.She will be awesome member missionary.She is already inviting her family members to come to church.She will be great blessing to this ward and great example for all the Native members.

I will send you some pictures from baptism. I got a summer haircut this time so i may look very different in my pics.

It is our great privilege to work at this area right now.Heavenly father has always people prepared for us on all the things we do.I was reading Preach my gospel this week at Christ like attributes, i really felt the spirit and i pondered about what does it mean to have "pure love of Christ"?It does have a greater meaning in it.I felt like i can love anybody but to have pure love of Christ is different than just loving them.And that will be my goal for rest of my life to be able to have pure love of Christ for everyone.

I hope and pray that y'all will have increased charity for everybody and that u will be able to bless many peoples life.

I love u all and for everything you do.Thank u for your love.
