Hello and Namaste to everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How is everyone????I hope everybody is happy,great and shinny.

Well Right now i am soaked coz we biked in rain and i dont have any rain coat.But ya we made it church building coz thats where we email from our family history center and its about 3 miles. So biking is not so fun and my bikes dont have fenders so the dirt water is all over me.

But except for that all is well.We are teaching great investigators , we are gonna have baptism at the end of MAy.So we are really really excited about it.

We are having awesome time for sure.This week again one other person stop us and said " we are going to hell".But anyway let me tell y'all a miracle happen this week to us.

So we got this referral from other missionaries to go to the children hospital and give a blessing to a kid.So we got there but we didnt have all the information for this kid so we were not able to meet them .We were sad about that and sat down on lobby to figure out what to do next and as we were sitting we heard "Elders". We saw this sister in front of us and we thought may be thats the mother of that kid.So we started talking with her and found out she is not the person we thought but she is a member from a different ward.She told us that she just had baby 2 months ago and the baby is in ICU.And she said she always wanted a blessing for her baby but missionaries from her ward was not able to come so she asked us if we can bless the baby we said absolutely yes.We went with her and saw this tiny baby and gave the baby blessing and when the blessing was given the mother was on tears and she was relived. 

She knew that her daughter was gonna be fine when we gave the blessing.

Its the great hope that we get from our savior Jesus Christ.Like in Moroni 7:41 it says "And what is it that ye shall hope for? Behold I say unto you that ye shall have hope through the atonement of Christ and the power of his resurrection, to be raised unto life eternal, and this because of your faith in him according to the promise. and that is the great promise and blessing we all have . This message changes people to do the will of God and i knw these things are true. I bear my testimony of the truthfulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the blessings it brings in everybody's life.I love u all and grateful for your love and kindness.

Hello and Namaste to everybody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HAppy Mothers day to everybody.

So How was everybody's Mothers day. I hope y'all had a great time with your mother. Mother are really a great gift to all of us.Like a deacon said yesterday in our sacrament meeting they have unconditional love for there children.

We had a great and awesome week.We bike everyday and we are getting better at biking. We love to bike , it is so fun.Its fun but by the end of the day i am like dead tired.Someday i feel like i slept tired and i am waking up tired.But when we go through our day and we dont even remember that we were tired as we do the Lords work. We know that he is watching us and giving us strength all that time.It like the promise we can read on Alma 26:27"Now when our hearts were depressed, and we were about to turn back, behold, the Lord comforted us, and said: Go amongst thy brethren, the Lamanites, and bear with patience thine afflictions, and I will give unto you success." That is what we are blessed.

We had a whole family come to church yesterday and it was a great joy to see them at church.We always are happy whenever we can bring people to church.

We love sharing message of restoration with everybody and sharing Book of Mormon too. Recently One  investigator said "since the time i picked up Book of Mormon i have seen blessing in my life" and i know that to be true .Let us all share Book of Mormon when ever we have those opportunities. It will bless everybody.One of the scripture that i like from book of Mormon is

from Jacob 3:1 " But behold, I, Jacob, would speak unto you that are pure in heart. Look unto God with firmness of mind, and pray unto him with exceeding faith, and he will console you in your afflictions".

I love u all and thank u so much for all you do.y'all are the best!!!!!

Hello and Namaste to everybody

How is everybody? I hope everybody is doing GREAT!!!!!!!!!

We are also doing great. We are having some good days here and biking is so fun.I think everybody should bike. Everybody bikes here in summer coz its so great here to bike. I had to fix my bikes couple time this week. My brakes didnt work so i had take it in and fix it and i thought good enough then next day my bike got puncture by this big nail on the street. So i fixed it by myself and its good to go now.I am thankful for my good old bike which takes me all around this place.

We had a great week this week coz we had our Stake conference and seventies came to re organize the stake. So that was a neat experience for me. We were also invited in leadership meeting and that was pretty intense. 

So this week we had blast with our president. President came out with us to teach.So president Clements calls and asks us hey elders can i come teach with u? We were kinda out of our breath when he said that  but we gather our breath together and said sure. And he came to teach with us and we went to teach our investigators. And we had a great great lesson. Man he was super bold and we did learn a lot from him. One of our lesson we did some acting with kids of our investigator and it was awesome. Kids are crazy.So president came to our apartment and looked at it and said i wanna see inside of your apartment so we said ok and he came and looked and said elders looks like you are not living in safe place and he was so scared to be in our area that he asked us if we can come down and drop him of to his car.He was scared out of his mind.It was super funny.And sounds like we are getting moved coz we live in a Ghetto. I also decided this week that i will not have any pets. Being in Minnesota and seeing everybody and dog or cat and some had snakes, rabbit, rat , mouse,lizard , and many weird looking animals which i know not why people have it. It just made me go crazy. So i said to myself "NO Animals".

Yesterday was May day and we saw this huge parade right in front of our apartment.It was crazy .It looked like they just do what ever they want. I will send u some pictures to y'all.

well that was kinda my week.Thank u for all u do.Happy Mothers Day to everybody.I love u all.

Hello and Namaste to everyone

hope y'all have a great great week. we had a awesome Easter Sunday here.And best part of it was the weather which was 70 degrees. I havent felt such cool and warm weather for long long time.

We have awesome church meeting and we were able to bring 7 people to church Sunday that was awesome.It is just an awesome feeling wen you can bring people to church.Church is the best place to feel the spirit.

We are teaching a native american sister right now and she is gonna get baptize on 31st of  may. We are super duper excited about it.

We are so blessed to find so many people that have been prepared by our heavenly father. There is always somebody waiting for us and wanting to listen to us as we search diligently. We are always grateful for that.

i wanted to share this wonderful scripture with all of you. Its from Alma 36 :17-21.

17 And it came to pass that as I was thus ^aracked with torment, while I was ^bharrowed up by the ^cmemory of my many sins, behold, I ^dremembered also to have heard my father prophesy unto the people concerning the coming of one Jesus Christ, a Son of God, to atone for the sins of the world.

 18 Now, as my mind caught hold upon this thought, I cried within my heart: O Jesus, thou Son of God, ^ahave mercy on me, who am^bin the ^cgall of bitterness, and am encircled about by the everlasting ^dchains of ^edeath.

 19 And now, behold, when I thought this, I could remember my^apains ^bno more; yea, I was harrowed up by the memory of my sins no more.

 20 And oh, what ^ajoy, and what marvelous light I did behold; yea, my soul was filled with joy as exceeding as was my pain!

 21 Yea, I say unto you, my son, that there could be nothing so exquisite and so bitter as were my pains. Yea, and again I say unto you, my son, that on the other hand, there can be nothing so exquisite and sweet as was my joy.

And that is our great message of joy that all can have as they repent. I love love sharing this msg. Hope y'all also have opputunity share this wonderful msg. I love you all for your kindness and love . thank u so much.

Hello and Namaste to y'all

How are you? I hope everything is going good.
We had a great week. We are still filled with the spirit of General conference and the message is still ringing like a bell in our ears. We had a wonderful opportunity to bring our investigator to church yesterday. We had a mother with her six kids there and Native sister come to church. They were able to meet our bishop and lots of other members and had warm welcome.
i just got call from the 2nd counselor and he wanted to invite the kids for scout activity and asked us the mothers number. he said he will talk to her and get them there. Oh how joy it is to see a member being so proactive in missionary work. If everybody is like that , miracles will happen everywhere.

My mission is going like crazy. Many expected and many unexpected things have happened by now. Many miracles and many blessings we have seen.Many persecution and trials we went through.

But only things we remember is light we see in our investigators eyes and how gospel blessed there life. I have learn to love everybody in my mission. And without love there is no missionary work. Remember to give your to everybody.

I love you and thankful for your love and kindness.

Hello and Namaste

How is everybody doing? I hope y'all are spiritually pumped up by the General Conference. It was a great conference like always. 

We had a great and marvelous week of General Conference and it is our great privilege to hear from our dear prophet and apostles of our savior Jesus Christ. We had been spiritually uplifted, encouraged and given the proper guidance at conference and now its time for us to act upon those counsel that we received. Without the action all the counsel will be of no use.

Some guys yesterday came to us and told us that our church is false and we are following the false teaching. We didn't say much and we bore our testimony and he prayed for us that our eyes might be open. I was just amazed how people can hate us and persecute us for being Mormons. I concluded that they have harden their hearts . They are reading to much garbage in internet.

But i knw as we build our faith on our savior nothing go wrong.Like in Helaman 5:12 says " And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall.

And i knw this is true . Jesus Christ is our savior and redeemer and he loves us all. May we all have wonderful time and opportunity to share the message of conference to people we meet. I love u all and thankful for your loving kindness.
