My subject is how you say Hi in Thai!
(defs not how you spell it but...)
Anyway, this week has been great! My new
comp is from Thailand! Sadly she can't cook thai food but, she is still
amazing! We have been working hard and have been quite busy but it feels so
good to be busy. It is the best feeling coming home each night feeling like you
did everything you could for the Lord that day. I am happy and too busy to even
feel homesick! hah its been great.
Heavenly Father is blessing us so much and we have been able
to see so many miracles. We visited by a less active this week who hasn’t been
to church for a while and she came on Sunday! And 2 recent converts got up in Sacrament
Meeting to bear their testimonies! One of them brought a friend to church and
we had actually met her on the bus a couple weeks ago, but she said she is
ready to learn more now! So we will be teaching her this week :) Because it was
fast Sunday we fasted with one of our investigators who we were finally able to
set a date for his baptism. He has been investigating for over 6 months so this
is a miracle! He said when he fasted he felt so much closer to Heavenly Father
and he knows he is making the right choice. We will continue to work with him
so he will be ready!
ALSO... I SAW ELDER NORTON!!!!!!!! He
was coming to our chapel to get his new companion so we got to shake hands (lol)
and get a pic (we couldn’t touch) but its okay :) It was good to see him and
chat for like 2 minutes. He got moved further away from me but he is needed
elsewhere!
This week I have felt the stress of a
lot of things, first time leading the area, first time with a new companion,
and navigating everywhere. It has been quite the experience, but I am learning
so much and really working on how I can help others around me. Life can be
stressful at times but we need to remember what the most important thing is and
that is our Savior Jesus Christ.
I am so thankful to know about this
truth! And I feel so lucky to be able to share it with people in Leeds! It’s
amazing how God puts people in our path that are ready to hear the gospel. We
see it everyday, so many little miracles testifying that Heavenly Father is
really there and He loves us so much.
Thank you for all the love and support!
love you all!
