Oi tudos!
I'm sorry that this post will be so brief. I have a very busy day and want to get everything done this P-Day that I can to prepare for Brazil!!
I think I've worn my yellow Mormon Helping Hands shirt this last week more than I have white shirts and ties. We have been assigned to help with flood relief. We spent all weekend helping clean one home in Berthoud. When the missionaries first got there, the basement was flooded with up to 9 feet of water and mud. After emptying that out bucket by bucket, we disposed of everything. Drywall, carpet, valuables. You could tell it was a really nice home by the layout. It is such a tragedy to see all the people who have been affected and how so many people have lost everything. It's certainly humbling to be here right now and helps me realize how important it is to serve God and His children. I hope that this helps the people of Colorado to turn to what's truly important here on this Earth and to know that Heavenly Father is right there to bring happiness in this life.
Next time you'll hear from me, I'll be in Rio de Janiero! I can't believe the time is coming, and so fast. I almost don't want to leave... I am going to miss Colorado and the people here so much. But regardless, I am happy to serve the Lord where, how, and when He wants me.
How great is my calling!
