Hello!! Our pday is on a Tuesday this week!
This will be a quick one.
This week we had a lesson with one of our friends and one of my besties Sister Cummings from the MTC and her comp taught with us! Oh my gosh it was so fun and the spirit was STRONG and this friend is just going to receive the best sisters!!!
(Shout out District Joy, I miss you all for real all of you don't forget I love you)
This week one of our friends told us she shared the Book of Mormon with another friend!!! It was so cute, she said that she didn't want her friends to be scared and wanted them to have Jesus Christ and be able to have prayer. It was so sweet, and the next lesson that friend was there too and told us all about Joseph Smith's experience!! Gahhhh so amazing!!! This is the friend on date((:
Another friend said he wanted to be baptized!! This is a part member family we are working with, and so we haven't set a date, but we are going to teach him everything, yesssss
Also amazing miracle. This week we called some Chinese elders in arcadia to give them a referral and the they had one for us too!!!! Ah what that is so amazing!! 🙏🙏🙏
And then just want to end with a question a super awesome amazing friend of mine asked: How has your testimony and your hope been?
So. Starting out quarantine, we were so happy (we being me and Sister shay) we were teaching a ton, finding, and helping the missionaries in our zone. Now we are halfway through transfer 2. Starting this transfer, our finding slowly started decreasing and the number of lesson we taught did too and some of our friends weren't progressing as much. Although we were still busy, I wondered a lot why I sometimes had a hard time fulfilling my purpose, why some of our friends who had progressed before seemed to not know how to make that next step towards baptism. And I feel like that's when my testimony started really going. Although I still had hope in God that He would help us continue help find people, I was a little discouraged. Haha just being super real here. I was still happy, but sometimes I was like ah God, this is hard. But our mission president taught us something. He told us, get on your knees. Get on your knees and pray. Pray for miracles, and pray to thank for miracles you receive. And so I started doing that with Sister shay. Every single thing is a miracle now. I learned this week that faith is a gift from God. Even the act that I can exercise faith is a miracle from God!!
I just really love this work. There is no greater work on this whole entire planet. I just love it so much ah being a missionary is such a blessing. Anyways, love you all!!! Also shoutout to all my missionary friends I get emails from. I never tell all of you but all of you inspire me so much!!!
