Dearest Familia!!! 

AHHHHH!! Can I tell you something very scary! Transfer Calls are Sunday and I have been in the same area with the same companion for 4 months!!  So chances are I'm probably getting transferred or getting a trainee!! which is a very scary thought for me!! I still feel like a greenie in so many ways.  I can still remember when I first came out here the reactions I would get when I told people that I had been out 4 days, 1 and a half weeks all the way up to a month.  It would just blow their minds!! Now when I say I've been out four months they are just like "oh, you still have a while then".   and I just think to myself "Really??". But I know that whom the Lord calls, the Lord qualifies!!  So if I do get called to train then the Lord will prepare a way for me to do it!! 

So I've attached three pictures, (Dad are you sooo proud of me for figuring that out or what?) so I'll tell a little about each one.

So in Virginia, the streets are a little different, not organized like streets in Utah,  Just random and curvy and long and non-connecting!! So one day me and Elder Kay walked all the way down this long road and tracted all of it out and when we got to the end we realized that we were going to have to walk all the way back out to get back to any other street!! So we were looking for any easier way, and we found this sweet bridge that took us to another street!! 



We are teaching a Part member family ( the Frederoffs) they are a way cool family they have two little boys Asher and Adrick.  Adrick has some form of aggressive down-syndrome but he is the sweetest cutest little kid in the world!! We are hoping to reactivate Brother Frederoff and baptize his wife and kids!! They are a way sweet family and would literally do ANYTHING for the missionaries!! 

The last one is one of me and my fearless Zone Leaders and my best friends!!! I love them to death!!! Elder Eyring in the middle (yes he is distantly related) and Elder Collie on the right.  They have helped me so much through these first tough months so you should befriend their mothers on facebook or something.

So when It comes down to it I am doing better every day. It is a struggle to find peace, but every time I do find it, it is through the Gospel of Jesus Christ!! and through the everlasting Atonement of our loving Lord and Savior!!  and I'm grateful to be out here in Virginia bringing the people of Colonial Heights that same peace that I have found through the restored church!!! I love you all (notice I didn't say y'all ;) ) so very much and I miss you every day and hope you have a incredible week!!! 

Love, Elder Sahagun
