As always we are workin´ hard and learning a lot.
   I had an interview with President Tanner on monday where he shared some simple words that helped me a lot. He said that the image of churched leadership can be summed up in one picture. The picture of Christ cleaning the feet of the apostles.
   Ever since I got this call I have been obsessed with my image. Having the best area as an example, having the best numbers, being an example of obedience. I am finally realizing that I had a big case of the ´´me, me, me`` disorder. This has left me not as happy as I used to be, it has lefted me drained, and often annoyed with myself my my lack of success.
    I am doing exchanges with Elder Fa right now, he is at my side emailing his family. Yesterday I was so impressed with him. How he knew the elders in his zone, how he tried to understand them and help them by being their friend. He is a great example of service and love.
  I feel like I got caught up into the big comotion of trying to be something else as an assistant that I lost those ideals, those principles of Christ-like love that make a powerful missionary. Instead I turned into a machine, just pumping out the same stuff, without that love and spirit.
   I am not on a pity parade, I am just realizing that I have a long way to go. Maybe I super-hard on myself, but this are the thoughts that are going through my head these days.
    Also, the mission will change a lot next transfer. Elder Christensen won´t be one of the new assistants, because they will only have two instead of four, and I might be released as assistant to be zone leader in a new zone that we be assemled this upcoming transfer. Whatever happens I know that it will be God´s will and I will be more that happy to do it.
  It was good to talk to you on Mothers day. I hope everyone is doing well.
     Please avoid talk of me coming home in letters and emails, that is far far away and it is something that I don´t want to think about right now. Please pray for me and pray that we might find the Lord´s elect and that they might feel the truthfulness of the restored gospel.
  I love you all and I hope that you all have a great week.
