Hello All!
Hope everything is going super good. Things are going. Going fast
actually. I can't believe this transfer is half way over! Crazayzyyy.
Can't believe it. Pretty much, I love this area, even though I feel
like all of our investigators dropped off the earth or something. But
we have started teaching active members the lessons, them pretending
to be investigators. That has been so cool, haha and the feedback is
even better. I'm glad i get to be a missionary in English for a while
before Português.. I love it, and being a Facebook missionary is
getting better, and I can literally feel the Holy Ghost throughout our
lessons. (Not that I couldn't before, but it's just so much stronger)
With that, I feel like lately I have been able to recognize spiritual
prompting a lot better. I had this cool experience this week. We were
coming home from a dinner appointment, and I just thought, "You know,
we should visit Alex." (One of our investigators who we hadn't seen in
weeks.) So we stopped by JUST as he was getting home! He answered the
door with a huge smile and told us how he had gone back to work and
was so overwhelmed with bills and things but that he missed us! And
wants to come back to church! It was so awesome to be able to talk
with him and let him know that Heavenly Father is mindful of him. So
cool! Also recently, I have been having feelings of like DONT GO TO
THAT HOUSE. A lot in one night, I have heard stories of missionaries
feeling this and couldn't wait to actually recognize a prompting that
could keep me from danger! Haha who knows what would've happened if we
would've gone to these houses, but I'm glad we didn't.
Yesterday, we had a linger longer and church, and I brought my
FAVORITE. Fruit salad for a crowd. Yum. I love food, can I just say?
Haha. Oh and that reminds me of this talk I read this week.. Called, "
Sanctity of the Body" SUCH a good talk! Made me never want to eat junk
again, because our bodies truly are gifts! This talk just hit me. In
my gut. That has gotten huge while on this mission. Not really but it
didn't mean a lot to me. Hahaha. Read it!
Line of the week:
(We were in district meeting, talking about how unrealistic our zones
goals were haha)
Elder: we should call the zone leaders, right now. Tell them I just
dropped kicked my iPad so change the goals!
Maybe that isn't as funny to you as it was haahha. You all are so
awesome. Read your scriptures. And really ponder them, and ask for
revelation! I've learned SO so much from he Book of Mormon these past
6 months, so awesome. This week we have a zone conference and
exchanges with some hermanas! So excited.
