Another Letter

Dear Richard,(He is only apparently writing to me now since Tony is so horrible about writing to him!)
I just wrote you, but I only had a few minutes left to E-mail. I printed out pictures so I should get and send them on Wednesday.

Too bad my plaque has my old favorite scripture. My newest is D&C 11:20(Behold this is your work, to keep my commandments, yea, with all your might, mind and strength).

Elder Peterson is that same person my Mom spoke of. My strenghts are his weaknesses, and vice versa. I have learned in the past week patience and a lot of humility. There is so much hard work out here. I also learned it is OK to cry.

Since I have been out here I have found I love to teach. I also found out there are different kinds of missionaries. Ones who depend on packages from home and those that don't. I don't miss home. You notice the ones who depend on packages don't have that strong of a testimony.

I work hard everyday. I hope my companion will get in gear.

Oh! And thanks for writing me Tony!

Hearing from General Authorities in person is so powerful!

Living a life of a missionary is so amazing. It seems like the days are so long. When the Lord wants something done, He definitely provides a way. Even if that means lengthening the day.

Love,
Elder Sanchez

The girls or Sister Missionaries get cuter every day.
