Buenas tardes! Okay, this week we had MLC down in Yakima, which is always fun! The meeting was super good too. I learned a ton! President and Sister Lewis talked about coming closer to Jesus Christ and the different ways we can do that as missionaries. It's pretty cool. We have the opportunity to do literally what Jesus Christ did himself. Obviously not everything, but to an extent. It is such a blessing. Something an Elder shared at the meeting was this: apparently somewhere, someone did a study where they looked at a bunch of people's brains and stuff. Then they had half of them go and perform a bunch of charitable and compassionate acts. Then they all came back and they tested their brains again. They found the ones who performed the acts, had a part of their brain that literally grew. It's crazy to think about how when we do Christlike things, it changes us. Not just spiritually, but physically. That blew my mind. Well I am out of time. I'll talk to ya'll later! Love you! Elder Zev Harman

Buenos dias a todos! So this week was good! We have been doing lots of tracting trying to find new investigators, so there have been lots of interesting interactions with people. I love tracting because that is where all the random weird stuff happens! And when you hear a story about somebody's mission it usually starts with, "One day my companion and I were tracting and..." So yeah, tracting is the best! It has been super hot this week so we have spent lots of time talking to people while we stand there drenched in sweat. It gives us some extra motivation to get in the door with people. Which has been pretty successful as of late. Also, we keep our apartment at a nice 65 degrees or less so that when we come home we can cool off. We get spoiled in the states. #blessed We are getting pretty good at foosball. Well, at least we think we are. We think it would be funny to play someone who is a pro and then that would tell us if we are good or not. But, progress has been made nonetheless. This week I have realized how many miracles you get to see happen everyday as a missionary. I mean, tons and tons of miracles happen in everybody's lives but it's even more as a missionary! I have been trying to be better at recognizing the Lord's hand in my life. Usually what happens is I will realized after the fact. Which is fine. But this week I was able to notice things as they were happening right in front of me. It was cool. I talk more about it in my recording. So last week we went hiking in Leavenworth. It was sweet! On the hike there was an old mine tunnel cave thing that we walked through. It was fun. I'll send some pics! That's the update. Oh btw, I am an uncle again, its pretty sick. Love you all!
