Hello Family!
Man! it was so good to talk you all yesterday! I cannot get over how much of a chatter box Rachel is or how much Christopher's voice has changed.I loved hearing what everyone was up to. It seems like everyone it really happy and loving life, which makes me really happy.  
 
This past week was really good. Sister Draney and I have been ROCKING the Des Moines area. We have a sweet new investigator who we both love! She is from Honduras and has been here in the United States for about 12 years. We are excited to see how much she progresses (she already has been, a lot).
 
Being a missionary is the best! I feel like being a missionary you get to talk so much. We go to Walmart and I love to talk to anyone I can. I love going up to Hispanics and just busting out a conversation with them and seeing there reaction... i mean a blond American girl speaking Spanish?! WHAT!?! It is so fun! haha! This past week I just ate up because it is really fun to be a missionary! Yeah, it is hard work and you get discouraged sometimes, but by the end of the day you are laughing about it. There were a lot of moments like that this past week. None that specifically come to mind, but i really do enjoying meeting people. OH! ok, this past week we met with one of our less-actives and we planned a good little lesson to share with her and she was like "No tengo mucho tiempo" (translation: I dont have much time) and Hermana Draney and I were so.... flustered, for lack of a better word. and so Magdelina just grabbed our scriptures from us opened them to a random page, read it and then applied it to us. haha! We left her house and we couldnt believe what had just happened. Ok, maybe that doesnt seem as funny to you... but it was great!
 
Another plus of being a missionary is that you get to see people change first hand. there are so many people in our little branch that i have seen changed so much ever since i have been here! It is by far one of the most rewarding thing of missionary work! Seriously, if you are considering going on a mission- DO IT! You will not regret it. It is the best investment of your time you could possibly invest in. I love being a missionary! BEST TIME EVER!!!!! :)
 
I sure do love you all! Thank you for all of your letters and support. I hope you all have the BEST WEEK EVER!!! :) Sending you love from DES MOINES!!!!! 
 
Love,
Hermana Wadsworth
