"This has been a really successful week for our Zone. The entire Zone was balanced! This is the second time. It happened in Don Mueang as well. President Senior was surprised and super excited to hear about it. We were in constant prayer for this to happen and never lost faith even to the last minute."
"I was able to meet with Aunt Wan and Uncle Jeff, or should I call him Uncle Art. haha I also found out that mom's Thai name is "mem", which is funny as well. We got to spend a couple hours with them and they took Elder Black and I out to eat. I realize that my family are such Thai people; always taking pictures and making little jokes. It is really funny. They won't be able to talk about me anymore because I can understand them now. We are going to start teaching Aunt Wan's sister's family. We will try to meet with them next Tuesday. They are really cool people and I'm hoping that they will be interested in coming unto Christ."
"On Monday, I got my feet eaten by fish! It is a certain type of massage and it tickled a lot. haha I also went on switch-offs with the APs last Thursday. The APs are both Thai and have past girlfriends in our ward. haha I was with Elder Kris and we were friends before, so it was a totally great switch-off. When we got to the church to have BOM class, there were all these past girlfriends who came all dressed up to see them. haha Elder Tannawat almost got hugged by one of his RCs that likes him and it was really funny. He said that he learned a lot from the switch-off, so apparently I hope it was something good. I also hope they don't make me an AP because they travel a lot more and get no sleep. I just want to die here in Chiang Mai."
"Thank you for all the family pictures. I made my family history book and it looks really good. It is helping the RCs to want to do theirs as well. Thank you for all your help. I love you so much!"
