Hey!!!

So this week I complete 6 months, wow. That is 1st quarter and only three left. I cannot believe how fast the time passes by and how amazing this work is.

I hope that all is well for everyone and doing ok at home in the great country of America. Happy 4th of July everyone! Hope you all had a good one.

So we are working way hard and having little success and it is kinda draining. But this last week my DL did a work visit and I went to another area and in this area it is amazing. The people all want to hear our message and the people are really great. So we were on our way to a lesson and suddenly a woman came running at us and I didn’t see her until she had a hold of my arm. She wanted to go with us to her congregation to preach to them because we have the truth. So we talked to her for a bit like 10 min and this whole time she was begging for forgiveness and was holding my arm. I then looked her in the eye and told her she had to ask God for forgiveness and leave all her sins behind and then get baptized... :) ha ha all she said was I will do it, baptize me! Wow. So we set an appointment to meet with her. I had never told a person to get baptized in a contact before; it was a super weird but a cool experience. So I don’t know what happened with her because she is not in my area but it was interesting.

So that was my week for the most part I love the jungle and the mission is great! I love you all and hope to hear from you all soon thank you all for your support! Chaufa!!

Love Elder Jett Hudson

Hola!!

Somo estan todos? Espero que todos eten bien!!

So I am working my butt off here in the jungle, so so so gorgeous and so so cool!! So the work here is going ok we are struggling a bit this last week was a bit rough the numbers were not so great... So we are working through the hard times and changing our way of doing things and doing things the way the Lord would want to have them done. We have read through preach my gospel a bunch and we are starting to roll but we got to keep it going. My comp is awesome and we work so well together and teach well, united.

So after almost 6 months I am now starting to get tan a little bit but yeah I look pretty much the same... a little taller, I hope, and unfortunately a bit skinnier. Everything is going well here so I read in the Liahona this week the conference talks and the one by Elder L Tom Perry is awesome! Read it! So from this I have pulled three things really 4 that we really focus on when we teach.

We focus
1. on Jesus Christ and his atonement,
2. The Restoration of the gospel through Joseph Smith,
3. The Book of Mormon, and for us missionaries in the field Baptism and confirmation.
Missionaries need so much help from the members of the church like Elder Perry said they are Teachers and the members need to look for the people who are prepared for the message. Not critiquing anyone but what are you doing to help? Think about it. In the doctrine and Covenants it teaches to open our mouths and share what we have with our BROTHERS and SISTERS. These three things that Elder Perry has taught us are what we tell the people and share. This is the work of the Lord and no one is exempt from working in it. Always look for those people and do not be afraid. God is with unto the ends of the Earth. I love you all so so so much!!!!! Thank you for everything!
