哈嘍!!!
This week has been such a
good week! We visited about 6 different members, I absolutely love this
ward! The members are so sweet and always so welcoming!
We
visited our Relief Society President in a place called Su'Ao. Which is
this beautiful port city it was absolutely gorgeous! It was so fun to
sit and talk with her about who we can help in the ward and we could
really feel the love she has for all of these women.
We
also visited this cute mom and baby who also lives in Su'Ao. Getting to
her house was a little bit of an adventure, we walked on the side of a
highway and saw the Crayon Factory! When we got to her house, she shared
about how she helped her husband join the church. It was such a cute
story and her testimony was so sweet!
This
week has also been ridiculously HOT! We are sweating 24/7, I'm
definitely getting use to just being wet. I'm dying, but companion is
use to it because she lived in Hawaii. I am learning to love the
humidity
Sadly
this week we had to say goodbye to some friends we loved but weren't
willing to keep commitments. It was a little frustrating listen to why
they couldn't do what we were asking them to do. However, after thinking
about and some prayers I learned that right now isn't their time and
that's ok. My job as a missionary is to find those who are ready now,
and to do that I have to learn who isn't ready right now. It can be
heart breaking at time, but I have full faith that the Lord is in
control of His work and He will lead us to those prepared all we need to
do is keep searching!
I
love this gospel so much! My love for the Book of Mormon grows everyday!
I know God gave us this book to help us learn, grow and find answers! I
encourage all of you who aren't to start reading it everyday with the
intent to recieve answers to your questions. And if you do this I
promise you'll find answers!
愛你們!
