Dearest Family,

It was sooooooo (o's x a million) good to see you this morning and talk and laugh and cry I just love you all! It was the best thing to wake up to. I loved hearing Tyler's lines from the play. I hope your collar bone heals quickly. I never knew you were such a bully on the field. Be nice. And write me a letter. Jessica you were so quiet! I hope you got the birthday card that I sent you! Your hair is so long and you are a beautiful young woman. I want to hear all about camp. Write me a letter. Dad, thank you for coordinating such wonderful technological support with the internet speed and all that jazz. I'm so grateful there were no problems. Also, don't you just love this 'lil internet cafe? And I actually realized there is a little Buddha thing with the incense here. They're everywhere. I love all of your stories that you've shared about memories of you mission. To you and Mom, thanks for the letters I love the support. Mom, Happy Mother's Day!! Thank you for being the most wonderful example to me! I am grateful for all that you've taught me. You are an amazing teacher, I admire you so much! Thank you for showing me how to love and serve others. There are so many things about being a missionary that are simple and natural to do because of the way that you have raised me and taught me by your example. I love you all so much!! 

I love Thailand!! May 10th was my One Month in Country Anniversary! To celebrate, I ate an ice cream sandwich - literally ice cream scoops sandwiched between some bread. So Asian. So delicious. You should all try it. They sell it outside the 7-11 in this cute little card. You can do anything at 7-11.

Have I ever told you about our experience teaching English? It is so fun! Every Tuesday at 6:30 we have 5 different English classes at the church. It's actually gotten a lot bigger. There was a facebook add made that got a bajillion hits in a week or some crazy statistic like that. It's been a good finding tool. Last week, we tried to tell a joke...that was super rough. It was the first one listed in the English book and we just used it without really considering how random and hard to understand it was...What has two humps and is found in the North Pole? A lost Camel!! Worst joke right? I was pretty embarrassed, but I drew a camel on the board to help clarify. That made it a lil better. It was a really cute camel. I wish I could send you a picture. I'll work on getting the camera stuff sorted out.

Our investigator May is so cute! She came with us to a baptism on Saturday and she was so happy. There were some talks given about repentance and enduring to the end. She understands repentance so well! I'm so excited to keep teaching her! We are going to invite her to be baptized at the end of this month.

I can't believe I keep forgetting to tell you this! Elder Neil L. Anderson of the 12 apostles is coming this weekend with Elder Whitney L. Clayton of the 70! There will be special meetings all day Saturday for the missionaries and the members, and then another meeting on Sunday. I am so excited! They are coming to see if Thailand is ready for a temple!!! AHH!!! Thailand needs that so much! Yesterday there were some youth at the church rehearsing a musical number for the meetings this weekend, Jesus Once of Humble Birth and Search, Ponder, and Pray. The spirit was so strong. I know that this church is true! These youth are so strong! IT was amazing to look at them and see a glimpse of the future of the church in Thailand. I love being a part of this work. There really is nothing better.

This was wonderful! I feel like the faith in our companionship has been strengthened. I am so grateful for Preach my Gospel and the training that I've been able to do. This week in my personal study, I read in Mosiah 14:3 and the part that talks about how Christ was a man of sorrows really stuck out to me. I have often thought about the sacrifices that Jesus has made for me and all of us, but I always imagined that he was happy as He went about serving. I feel so silly having thought that. He suffered the pains of the word. Surely He was a man of sorrows. I know that He willingly suffered because He loves each of us but it was still a hard thing for Him. How did He so perfectly endure all of these things? He definitely experienced hardships and rejections but through it all, He continually trusted in the Lord. He gave all his might, mind, and heart to God. He never complained. This week I want to improve on enduring well the trials that I'm facing. I am so grateful for the Atonement and the opportunity I have to repent and become better each day. 

I love you all! Have a wonderful week!

Love, Love, 

Sister Sahagun
