It is crazy to think that it is Monday again and I don't really have anything to write.  It was a good week.  We went with one of the families that we have been teaching and we finally got started on their paperwork so that they can get married - that will be great.  We just need to help them progress a little bit more so that they can get baptized this month.  This week we went to a meeting with President Fortuna and I loved it.  They are the best meetings; they are all so spiritual.  On Friday we had our Zone meeting.  It was a real awesome meeting.  We all felt the spirit really strongly and everyone left the meeting excited to work and put baptism dates.  Then we started a fast on Saturday.  It was an awesome fast.  I think it was one of the most spiritual fasts that I have ever done in my life.  As we were sitting in the church on Sunday right before we ended our fast I was thinking about everything that God does for us everyday of our lives and how grateful we should be for him.  I really have come to learn and understand the importance of the sacrament.  It is the most important thing that we do in the church every week!  We are able to go and renew the covenants that we have made with God and we are able to start over again.  That is just how loving God is; he knows that we are all imperfect but his perfect plan allows us every week to start a clean sheet and try to be better.  No one else really understands that - only us as members of the church.  We are all so blessed.
