WE GOT A NEW
BISHOPBRIC???? :( What a huge change for
our ward! But how exciting that there
are changes and the Lord is a part of them all! Make sure you are patient with Bishop Halling because without a doubt,
things are going to be different. But I
am so excited for him, oh and the ward!! CRAZY CHANGES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND... yeah how
crazy that my comp`s boyfriend and Derek
were companions!!! HOW IS HE LIKE??? I want to hear the good stuff! hahaha It
really is a small world!!
Okay my week was AWESOME!!!!!!!!! We have a brand new house, which is honestly
really nice and we have loved making it our own! We live right next to our old house so it isn`t
any difference in walking but so much difference in the look! I didn`t take any pictures but just imagine,
and maybe next week I can send some for you! My companion is hilarious; she has a crazy
mind on her head but I love her so much! You really get to know someone when you are
with them 24/7 but you also learn a lot about yourself also! When you think about the mission (worldly) it
really is something strange. You leave
everything you loved and go to a different country and live with a stranger and
eat crazy food and walk ALL day long
to teach people that usually don`t want to listen to you... AND YOU GROW!!! AND YOU BECOME BETTER!!!!! AND YOU FIND OUT WHAT REALLY IS IMPORTANT IN
LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW AMAZING IS THIS
OPPORTUNITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We had a really
great experience this week, actually yesterday! Because our church is at 12:30 we leave right
from church to go eat with the members. But
we forgot to plan time to help cook the food with the members and we had
another lesson right after. None the
less we were late to the other lesson and running like crazy to get there and
teach a little bit of something and put another cita. After that lesson we had yet another which was
all the way across town, so off we went running once again to find out that
they weren`t in their house.... Of
course right?? hahaha A little disappointed we thought, okay - fine
we can go and contact a reference that lives close to them so off we went.
We knocked on the
door of the apartment building and someone yelled out “Quien es??” and we yelled.... “Las misioneras!!!!” hahahahaha Then there was a short pause and then yelling
really really excited “HAY VOY HAY VOY
HAY VOY!!!!!!!!!” (meaning they are
coming!) And wow, we had such a
surprise! There lives 3 hermanas who all
are so excited to learn and change their lives. They had talked to the missionaries before
when they lived in another city, but they were searching for something that
could help them! I wish I could explain
how excited they are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It
was such a blessing!!! But the amazing
thing was they were headed off to work so we only had 10 minutes to visit with
them and put another cita! Perfect or
what????
From this
experience I learned that our timing is not perfect! If everything hadn`t happened the way it did,
we wouldn’t have found them there! TRUST
IN THE LORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE
KNOWS HIS CHILDREN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This work is
amazing and definitely lead by the One who knows it all! I know this is the true church of our savior
Jesus Christ!
I love you with
all my heart and soul!!!!!!!
Your Hermana Sutton! (the favorite daughter)
