Week # 72 Happy Birthday Mom, and Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

First off HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOTHER!! 
I hope you enjoy it and know that I love you! Thank you for your love and support! 

Well the life down here in Costa Rica is going great! I am loving my area, and we are seeing many blessings! This last week we received the call that in about a week we will be splitting the area and there will be sister missionaries here as well! I am so happy to see the area growing and to know that the branch will be receiving more help to increase our growth and help us reach our goals! This last week we were able to finalize the details on the wedding and baptism that we will have this coming week and so the whole branch is super excited to see a baptism after several months. This last week has been a very successful week and we owe it all to our Heavenly Father and I truly am enjoying my time down  here. I love you all and I hope that each of us can remember what it is that we have, and be more grateful for it. Costa Rica is a wonderful country and I love it dearly but the great blessing that we all have of living in the United states and having the lifestyle that we have is a true blessing. I am so grateful for the gospel in the lives of my family, friends and in my own  life, These last 17 months have given me a much deeper perspective of the need for the gospel in our lives. Many people accept the gospel and later leave the church for a short period and later realize the great difference and return. I thank my heavenly father daily that I am able to learn those same lessons and never have to distance myself from the blessings of the gospel. This church is true, I know it. Our savior lives, I have felt his love and presence, and once we all receive that same testimony we all have a duty to share it and bless others. For these things I am grateful this year.
