So San Jose is really small, like half the size of Loma Linda. It's really nice too because the house is super close to everything! Also it only takes about 5 minutes to walk to church instead of 45! I'm also living in the same house as Hermana Monson again. I really like having Hermana Moreno as my companion (again). I'm having some serious flashbacks with the two of them. It's really fun to be with them! We had a ton of people in church this week, and we have people that are really progressing. I still feel like I'm only here for one day, but I really like this area.
I was reading Jacob in the Book of Mormon this week, and it was talking about how it was physically hard for the prophets to write the Book of Mormon, but how writing was something that gave them joy, because they were leaving something that would help their descendents come unto Christ. I'm so grateful for the Book of Mormon! I know that this book is true and that through reading and putting the principles in practice in our lives, we can become closer to God. The Book of Mormon is evidence to me that Heavenly Father's love doesn't have limits. He loved the people in times of old wherever they were, and Heavenly Father loves everyone today, wherever they are. I encourage everyone to read the Book of Mormon and if they don't that it is true, to read, ponder, and pray to know if it is true.
I love y'all!
