Hey everyone! The time has really been flying by here in Brooklyn. It has been a good time so far, lots of good and also hard experiences. But honestly I am enjoying it, a lot of growth and learning right now! I am going to be staying in Brooklyn for my last transfer. And I picked up a brand new missionary to train my last transfer so everything with that has been going good, staying busy! I am really going to miss being a missionary, I really do love the people of New York City even though there is lots of crazy people.

Being a missionary and serving a mission has been a life changing experience, it has not always been easy but it has totally been worth it! Something that I have been learning so far these past 2 years is that however hard life gets, you just have to keep moving forward. Here is a quote that I love from one of the first talks I listened to in my very first transfer of my mission.

"We can also keep moving. Only the Lord can compare crosses, but all crosses are easier to carry when we keep moving. Men finally climbed Mount Everest, not by standing at its base in consuming awe, but by shouldering their packs and by placing one foot in front of another. Feet are made to move forward—not backward!"

Keep moving forward. Never give up! I love you all excited to see everyone in about 5 weeks!
