Jujuy!

I am really sorry about not writing last week. It pained me, but we could not find a cyber that was not filled last Monday. I wanted to write you so bad!!! I always feel inspired by your letters!!

To conclude about last the last translado(transfer)… it was amazing! Elder Philpot will always be my friend and example!! I feel Like I have grown so much with his example for me!!

Now I am out of small town Pichanal and into the big city of Jujuy!!!!! :) I am super excited for my area and I know that we will have a lot of success! I am so excited to see what I can give to the people here!!

I want to say how much I love you guys and how much you guys are my ejemplos(examples). This week I am still reading about the missionary work and the sons of Mosiah. What great examples they are of men who were OBEDIENT AND DILIGENT. I am working hard to develop these attributes of Christ!

And It looks like this translado (transfer) will be a trying one. Despite this I am inspired by my God. I know that I need to love and help my companion because the missionary work can’t be done solo!!  I will pray and fast for him and try to get him excited to go out and serve with total diligencia (diligence)! 

I love you all and I am thankful for all of your prayers for me! I am thankful for this gospel I will pray for you all I know that my God is with me!!

I will update you later with more information about my amazing time that I have been having! 

Love you,

Elder Sandberg 

And Kaden, A tip for you Is try imagining that your Father in Heaven is right in front of you. Reading the scriptures everyday will also help and meditating about the answers. Read the Book of Mormon and pray to know if it Is true! I love you so much Kaden words cannot describe!! (This was a response to Kaden asking how he could make his prayers more meaningful)

Let there be a wedding! February 2nd's Message

¿Hola como estáis vosotros? To answer your questions Mom about if people think we look alike, yes there are some people that ask if we are brothers. And yes I have an accent and also my grammar is not that good at times. My compañion can speak very well and people always say ok your companion’s grammar is good but you “falt” a little bit. (Faltar is the Spanish verb meaning to lack. Falt is the americanized missionary slang meaning to lack or lacking) But that doesn’t bother me because I know that in time I will study and master the language. I am praying for the gift of tongues everyday!

It sounds like everything at home is going well!! I am doing well out here just always trying to improve and to be more focused in the work!! I know that the difficult times will pass. I am trying to pray and trust in the Lord to guide me and at the same time take responsabilidad. Also I am trying to learn how to let go and have fun more.

I am not going to lie today I am pretty tired and I feel a little bit mas o menos. But I know the Lord will help me through these times. 

But this week was really good. We had lots of miracles happen and for this I am very grateful. Including a family who is very prepared we love them lots and this week they were able to get married so now they can be baptized!!

I love you so much Mom and Dad I hope you guys have the best week!

Your son
