(Letter sent May 9, 2016)
okay um hello fam! i just talked to you guys yesterday, which was super fun and im glad that everything is going well back home. it makes me happy!
so this week was good. sister peel and i are working hard. the work is slow, honestly, but we're just pushing on :)
weekly highlights:
1. corn hole: so the strawsers have a corn hole game which is like the best thing ever. mom and dad you have to get one!!!!!! so we played that with the elders this week and beat them. hashtag it's whatever.
2. fav holiday: so it was cinco de mayo this week. you all had better celebrated it. we had mexican food twice that day. lunch and dinner. life goalz. amirite. probs the best day of my entire life.
3. fav people: THE MOORES CAME TO VISIT! holy what. it was so great. i love them so much. we went to this pizza place and just talked and got caught up on lyfe, obvi. dennis (my rc) is still progressing so well, which makes me super happy. and the best part is that they brought us TWO QUARTS of lix. all the way from potosi. thats true love right there. it was the best day!
4. new car!!!: kinda. lolol so we switched cars with the elders! bc they didn't like their cruze and we didn't like the fusion so we swapped. and I LOVE THE CRUZE SO MUCH. it's so fun bc we feel like we have a new car now haha
teaching:
1. sherri: we read 1 nephi 8 with her. she liked it! it's the tree of life chapter, btw, which is such a good one! oh and miracle moment. so she said she would pray about the bom!!!!!! that night! that's such a miracle bc she refused to pray about it for the longest time. we talked about how she needs to get that knowledge for herself and how God wants her to know. go sherri!!!
2. stephanie: we picked her up this week! she is the sister of a recent convert, and she just turned 8 :) she is adorable and wants to be baptized so bad! so hopefully within the next few weeks, she will be baptized, which is exciting.
3. sister white: so she is a less active we've been working with. so anyway... another miracle! we had such a good lesson with her. she wants us to help her get active and to the temple. yay! so we're gonna give her small goals each week to do. so this week her goal was to read 1 nephi 3. im so pumped about her!
so overall, it was a great week! I've been studying the Christlike attribute of dilligence this week and it has been so good for me. something that has stood out to me is that in the work of salvation, God needs people on his team who are not only going to do work, but who are going to do work JOYFULLY and with a good attitude. so often we get consumed with our callings and day to day things that we fail to find the JOY in it. and im a big believer in having fun while serving the Lord. just ask my companion :) haha so this week, remember to have FUN while you are in the service of Heavenly Father.
i love you all!
