Highlights from this weeeeek... other than the cockroaches.... just kidding.
So
my companion had the stomach flu! Our week was mainly spent dying
without food in our house. With lots of throw up. What blessings right?
But actually it was awesome because I got to read the Liahona! I read
ALL of the past general conference in one day and was chomping at the
bit to go tell people about what I had learned. We also gave talks about
obedience in the branch Sunday. That's the problem with... I mean
BLESSING of branches- you get to speak like once a month! I told about
when Jessica Andrew Josh and I went camping and Jessica got stuck in
that bush. How you told us we couldn't leave sight of the camp, but we
did it anyway. I talked about how God gives us commandments because he
knows better than us. Just like parents with children, he is OUR father.
So I brought it back together talking about how we need to trust that
our Father has more perspective than us. And if we cant see the danger
on the other side of creek, it doesn't mean its not there! Obviously
everyone loved it, and afterward I received a ton of parenting advice!
HAAAAA.
Also this week our branch called a
branch mission leader! The good news is that he has been returning to
church after 10 years of inactivity? The bad news is he was inactive
after like 3 months of membership so we get to field questions like- for
the baptism you need 3 priesthood members... could it be women?!
HAHAHAHA.
But we love him so much and he is really excited. We´ll just have to
start a weekly apostasy list of things that happen. You are gonna LOVE
ITTTT!
Also we saw a TON of miracles this week
with one investigator asking - But how can I KNOW which church has the
authority of God?! GOLDENNNN.
Also I know I
always have to include a good story about men trying to kiss me. So this
time Ill tell you about a man that stopped on his bike and almost fell
over trying to kiss me on the lips? The good news is that he said he´ll
go to church Sunday! HAAAAA. Also, he wants to marry me, which here is
like 300 dollars. So at least he isn't super poor? You always knew I was a
gold digger!
But in all seriousness. I know
that God loves us. I know that he wants us to return to live with him. I
know the purpose of this world is to have families and seal them
together for eternities to have eternal happiness and joy in the life to
come. I know that without this the world would be utterly wasted, and
for this I am here sharing that message with the world.
LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU!
