Adventuretime!

Sorry, today we're on a P-day adventure cuz we're traveling to Chiang Rai to ride ostriches and elephants!!! It's one of my last p-days so we're really trying to make them as fun-filled as possible :) I'll be sure to send pictures next week! And all the pictures attached for this week were from our p-day excursion last week :) so enjoy!

This week, was our first and our last FULL week of work here in Chiang Mai. We have SOOO MANY MEETINGS this transfer its ridiculous. But it was fun to just get down to work. We were supposed to actually have a baptism this weekend too...but sadly, we were told she needs to wait until next month. But instead of being disappointed, Sister ออ้ย has been nothing but more faithful even! She knows that her waiting these next few weeks will be a time for her to strengthen her faith in Christ even more, so that when she is actually baptized in April, she will more fully understand the covenants she will be making with our Heavenly Father. She has just been an amazing example of faith to me because I feel like I was honestly more upset about her having to wait than she was. haha.

This week is going to be chaos, because me and the zone leaders have to plan everything for our Zone conference this weekend, which happens to be the same weekend as our District conference (aka stake conference)....so ya....we'll be working really hard trying to plan everything before President and Sister Senior get here!! wish us luck!!!!!

"Therefore, o ye that embark in the service of God; see that ye serve Him with all of your heart, might, mind and strength, that ye may stand blameless before God at the last day."

This scripture from D&C 4 is the youth theme for this year, as well as I think EVERY missionaries theme. We recite all of D&C 4 every morning here on the mission, and it has just helped me understand our purpose not only as missionaries but as disciples of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I encourage all of you, not only those of you who are preparing to serve a mission, but ALL of you to study this chapter, and see what you can do to improve your service to God. :) I know that studying this section has helped me so much understand how I can better serve my God!

"Therefore, if ye have desires to serve God you called to the work!"

The Lord has called ALL OF US to help in the hastening the work of salvation!!!!

Love you guys!!! 
Ever upwards,

Sister Lam
