Family, 

Sheesh. Time is going too quickly. I feel like I was just here typing you an email last week. I feel like I tell you the same thing over and over again. O well. Here it goes for this week. We were in a trio for a day. We went on a little exchange. Whenever Sister Aisa comes, we go get free Mickey D's thanks to our wonderful members up here. I promise I am being healthy...

We are teaching some really cool people right now. The Lord has blessed us with a really cool family. The mom is a member, but the two teenagers are not. They finally accepted a date and will be getting baptized this Sunday. It has been a LONG time in the making. We are so very grateful to be a part of it. They are awesome. They live in the country part of our area, so we are spending a bit of time out there. This is what it looks like. I thought Dad would appreciate this.  HAPPY FATHER'S DAY, DAD. ​There were BIG fish swimming in there.

Our recent convert, Adelina, is doing so well. We were in Gospel Principles with her, and she was answering all the question. We were astounded. Her daughter told us that Adelina had come to her on Saturday and said, "The teacher told us that we should read the lesson. Let's sit down and read it together." AAAAHHHH!! She is so cool. I am so grateful to be a part of families coming closer together. It is so cool. Also, Adelina's little grandson calls us the "mishimawies." It's so mean to not let us hold kids. I love that little man. 

Also, we have been hanging out with a lot of people from Jamaica lately. A little lady let us try a fruit that is native of Jamaica. It is called sour sap. The meat on the inside is the texture of a banana, but it tastes like guava. So weird and yummy. I would never have thought to pick this off a treat and eat it. 

Anyways, that's about it over here. We are heading into the rainy season. It dumps and is a little scary for about an hour every day. Life in Florida is always an adventure. Anyways, I better go. I love you all. I pray for you all by name every day. God loves you all so much. I know it.
