Continuing to Pray for the people of Uruguay!
Hey fam! (I thought I would change it up to some ingles!)
Well this week went very well.....it was another normal one but full of spiritual learning experiences. I am always amazed at all the Lord continues to teach me even when I think I know whats going on. I know this is one of the biggest blessings of serving a mission. Hey before I forget....I need to mention something.....Mothers Day is in two weeks! I was wondering if you all wanted to Skype again? Ill assume that you are all saying yes.....so listen up. This time there is a little bardering going on.....I will trade a phone call on Skype....for more photos of the family. Let me know if you think its worth the trade and remember thanks for doing business with Elder Bowden Inc. (HAHA, but seriously its not a joke) We should be able to get every thing in order and Ill let you know next week what time and all that good stuff. I am so grateful that I have an amazing and supportive family who prays for those area even where I am not serving. I am sure that Heavenly Father understands and will bless us all accordingly. I dont have a lot to tell about this week....its getting stinkin cold! I have offically busted out all the stuff for winter. I am excited to finally for the first time in my whole mission to have my suits dry cleaned! There is a huge store ( the Uruguayan version of a Wal-Mart) that has one really close to our area. We are going there today and we are also going to play pool! The first pool table I have found in this country thats not in a bar! We are still working hard and we really hope to see some baptisms in the near future. Time is going by really fast and I hope I can just keep up! We have a ward activity this week and its my comps birthday on the 5th of May! Its kind of wierd cause he is older than me but has less time in the mission. He will be turning 21 and I still have one of the cakes left that you sent for my B-Day so we are totally making it! Im sorry it was a kind of short and pretty boring email but I love you all! I know that this church is true and the Chirst is at the head of it. I know it is the only church on the earth today that has the authority from God. I know that we have a living prophet who recieves revelation for us. I know that Christ lives and without any doubts He gave His life for us. I know that as we strive to keep the commandments and repent we are healed by His atoning sacrifice. I know because I have felt this amazing power in my own life. I know there isnt anything in our life that cant be healed, cleansed, fixed, or change through faith in Him and His atonement. I know that as we sincerly pray, with real intent, we can improve our relationship with our Father in Heaven and recieve answers to our prayers. I know what matters to us also matters to Him and in His time and His way He will bless us. I know that families can be together forever. I know that the Book of Mormon is true and strengthens us personally and as a family when we dilligently study it! I love and miss you all! Until next week!
CON AMOR
Elder Bowden
