St. Augustine downtown

This last Monday close to the end of P-Day we went to downtown and it was wonderful. So old and it made me feel like I was in a very old town (which is true I guess because it claims to be the oldest town in the US)
 
This is the first week that I have been able to actually stay in my area all week. It was interesting, then we got a text from President asking if we would come to the priesthood leadership meeting, it was my first priesthood meeting ever and the brothers kept asking if we were lost. It was interesting. President wanted us to be there because he wanted to do role plays--or real plays as he likes to call them--with all the leaders to help them understand the power. He always says, "It is like that saying, when the student is ready the teacher will appear, I like to do it the other way as well, then the teacher is ready the student will appear." It was fun, I only wish there were more leaders from our ward to role play with.
 
I think I need to become more of a teacher so that more students will appear, but we are building our teaching pool and I know there are many things that we can continue to work on here.
 
A member passed away recently. He was a recent convert and I was just able to meet him before he passed. He will be missed.
 
There have been many struggles and many things to work for, but there have been happy times and joyous times as well. Mission life is so strange.
 
I love ya'll and I pray for you! Stay amazing! Oh, Katie, thank you so much for emailing me those amazing pictures I love them soo much. (I took a picture of them with my camera so I will always have them with me!)
 
picture 1: The Bridge of Lions is behind me (I'm trying to point to it, but it looks like thumbs up. . .)
pic 2: Yes. That is a pirate ship. They also have a fort that was built to defend against pirates. The University and light house are also very close. So amazing, yet just out of my area so we can only go on P-days
