Training a new Sister!

I'm training! It's so good for me and it's a wonderful and fun experience. I love my companion her name is Sister Nan and I'm still not sure what her native language is but I think it's Chinese. She is way funny and wants to do her best and be obedient. Her attitude makes the training experience so worth it.

These past few days I've been studying in Ether in the Book of Mormon, and there's a verse I love in Ether chapter 6 verse 3:

"And thus the Lord caused stones to shine in darkness, to give light unto men, women, and children, that they might not cross the great waters in darkness."

The stones mentioned in this verse can be compared to many different things, but in this case I want to compare it to the gospel. The Lord has given us the gospel to help us cross the great waters of life with light, happiness, and hope. I know that the message of the gospel brings all of these things because I have experienced it for myself.

Sorry I'm way bad at writing lately but I do read all your letters and love them and if I had more than 5 minutes left on my computer time I would respond to you individually. Sending my best from Thailand!

Love,
Sister Smith
