Hola mi madre,
 
This week was a good week. It was once again filled with lot's of service and opportunities for us to share the gospel with people face to face. And our days are getting busier and busier the longer I am in the area. I am starting to understand the members and they are trusting us more and more to do service for their friends. We have also become more effective missionaries by visiting people that are around one area we may have service at or a dinner. We are also getting out into the community more, so people can see the missionaries and who we are. 


The big things of the week was a potato activity on Thursday night and services. There are a couple families in the Oywhee ward that farm together and every year they have this big get together from the harvest and give out potatoes to the community and have a giant potluck as well. This year there was no potluck but they still gave out potatoes. We came to get to know more members and people in the Owyhee area as well. It was a lot of fun to just talk and get to know people we have not seen before. We also took some of the potatoes home and put an ad on Facebook. That was the other way we got out and met different people.
 

We did service for two non-member families. They were both set up by the members. It is so amazing to see their desire to help others and the love of Christ they have. The first service we did was just some yard work such as mowing and house washing. It was lots of fun. The other service we did was a bunch of farm work like moving barb wire.
 
So going back to the title of lime juice. While we were at the food pantry they gave us a gallon of 100% lime juice. So we are going to make limeades or have lime water. But on Sunday when I had to do call in's my companion started to just drink it straight and then got me to do it was well.


 
This weekend is the General Conference and I am so excited to hear the prophet and apostles. We have been listening to so many talks in the last week to prepare and all of them are just so wonderful and give me so much hope. I invite you to listen with questions and they will be answered. 
 
Love Elder Cormack
