M&Ms = Member Missionaries

Dear family and friends,

Okay, so it's been way fun being with Elder Fowler! We like working in the car area this transfer. We are really trying to go out with members as much as possible which is awesome. And if our original appointments fall through, we have lots of good backups planned instead. It’s great. It’s been really good to give our investigators and potentials the opportunity to meet members. Also it’s way fun for us to be able to spend time with the members. Win, win.
 This one 55 year old Cambodian man up north is willing to come out with us a lot. His name is Puu Chhay and he has been a huge help. He really just loves the missionaries. One day this week, we asked if we could use the restroom. He said, "Sothia, of course you can come in and use the bathroom. If you ever have to go to the bathroom you be sure to come to Puu's house. You guys are like my own kids. My house is your house...etc "  He’s great.  He went out with us for like four hours one day.   Some things he says are a bit interesting, like how we are all Jesus, but he has a lot of really good things to say too. We just love him.  He has great intentions and it adds to his good character which we love.  
We have so many awesome members. I just have to say how amazing Sunraa is again. She came out with us several times this week as well. She is my favorite person ever. She remains me a lot of you mom. I really think I'm going to miss many of the people here when it comes time for me to leave this area.
Okay we gotta run. It's a short session today since everyone has to use the family history center computers due to the holiday. Hope everybody has a great week!  I love this work.
