Short but Sweet !

hi family, I've done it again, waited until the end of my email time to email the family, aahhh! I'm the worst sister!! and i promised myself that i would be a better sister and write a really good email, dang it. but this week has been a really really good one. just the last couple of days have been really stellar. church was great, people gave very powerful testimonies, and we have had some very good lessons. also, remember how i was getting all worried about goals and everything and how our mission had a goal? our president sent out a new letter, I'm attaching it. it made me feel so much better, like a huge weight had been lifted. instead of working hard and getting really good numbers, we can work hard and find good people who will progress and help the church. I'm really glad he sent that before the end of my mission, i feel like there is a completely different tone to missionary work, and it is very nice.

we are teaching this guy, lazaias. he is really good. the only problem, he is a pelupa. in other words, very easy for him to forget. he didn't come to church because he forgot, and went to this other place. that sounds bad, but it is true, he really does forget. he is really funny, and really good. trying really hard to quit smoking. he used to smoke almost thirty a day, and now he is down to eight! he has to quit by the sixteenth and come to church, and then i can be here for his baptism! we'll see. he's so cool, he wants to bring his grandpa to church next week. we taught him earlier today because he couldn't meet any other day, and then he came with us to the shoe store, when we left he was telling us we should have given the shop girls pamphlets. he is really good. missionary work is so fun sometimes! love you family,

sister Harrison
