A flower field we went to today
funnies:
yeah we were on our way back from Roi-et and there was just some elephant walking down the street! So wild! Definitely a woah I'm actually in Thailand moment
a funny thai culture thing is that they put everything in the fridge, I mean everything. from pasta (like the dried pasta noodles lol) to sugar, oats, and just everything. The other day I opened the fridge and found bbq chips there. so funny
This really really old man at church who is probably 3/4 blind at this point randomly had this rubber snake in his pocket and he was so proud of it, He kept scaring kids with it...so cute.

Random Tidbits:
Elder Anderson unfortunately was unable to come to Roi-et. His wife was really sick so they had to go home early :(. We all still had a great time there though! we did zone conference and watched his talk from when he spoke in Bangkok! I also got to see a bunch of people from the mtc so it was super awesome.
district reunion!
I finally got my christmas present that Zach's mom Leah sent me at the end of october!!
We went to go volunteer at a school with kids that have special needs and they were sooo cute. funny story though, we thought we were just going there and playing with them, colouring and stuff like that in their normal classes, but when we got there they got all the kids and brought them into this like auditorium thing and had us lead activities for an hour!! We were totally not prepared lol, the elders planned this one so i shouldn't really be that surprised aha. Ity was overall a really cool and good experience!
At the school!
we did a service project taking tape off plastic bags for 3 and a half hours \! super fun! we had the Laos elders there too so it was awesome.
Us with the Laos elders
we got to see a dance competition to support an interested person and some members! It was sooo cool.

Spiritual Thought:
Elder anderson talked about how in order to stand strong in times of trial we need to love christ, and have christ deep within us. It is not enough to love the church, or love the members, we need to love Christ. He is the most important. And if we can trust in Him, have a relationship with HIm, have faith in Him, and love Him, then we can overcome everything through Him.
I love you all! Have a great week :)
Love Sister Clement
