(NOTE: Received May 10, 20100
Helloooooo family! Long time no talk, eh? I loved talking to you yesterday! That was so good. It gave me a lot more motivation to work harder, that's for sure. I got a blessing last week, and in it was promised that my family will be taken care of and blessed as I serve the Lord down here. I know that's true, and right now, I am working hard not for me, but for you. Each and every one of you. Blessings come every day. The big ones take time to come, but keep pressing forward conitnually, as the people holding the iron rod did. Remember, those who continually held the rod got to the fruit, despite being laughed at and tempted to let go.
On another note, I was going to tell you all something about the cars here. I know I've talked about it before, but now i see it more as I am out every day. So, there are a ton of trashy cars here. Somehow, though I don't know how, none of the cars have dents! They are just old, rusty, and beaten to death. Mostly volkswagens. Volkswagon beatles, volkswagon hippie vans. TONS of those!
As for other goings on...I'm going to try to send pictures today. They will be from the CTM, and then probably one of me and my comp, Sister Frame. Ahhhh I love being a missionary!
I am working hard, doing what I'm supposed to, and I will enjoy it. Right now I'm struggling trying to learn the language, and how to be a missionary, but all is well. I am supposed to be here...not sure exactly why. But at least I know I'm where I need to be, and where God needs me to be.
Much love and tons of prayers for you,
Karen
