Hello!
This week has been good.
Some random things...
1-we started going to the gym! We got permission from president to wake up a
little earlier and we go take a exercise class with all the hermanas. I have never felt better in the mission. My mind and heart have been way more
receptive to the Spirit and I have been learning a lot better and easier! (we have always exercised btw but now we have
permission to do it for an hour instead of 30 minutes and we have the gym now
and it makes a huge difference!) It’s been great therapy for my knee that has
been starting to have a few problems.
2-We made Haitian food with John Miracle this week with all
the other missionaries.
3-As weird as it sounds we knocked doors in the pouring rain
for 4 hours and nobody let us in, but it FELT SO GOOD!!! I mean its sad nobody let us in, but it felt
good. hahah I love the mission!
Anyway, it’s been a great week and I keep learning a
TON!! Honestly, we need to study the
scriptures EVERY day. There are sooo
many things we can learn from them and so many blessings we can receive!! This week I have learned once again that you
can serve wherever you are. Most
importantly, those in your home. I love
this quote from conference, “What good does it do to save the world if we
neglect the needs of those closest to us and those whom we love the most? How
much value is there in fixing the world if the people around us are falling
apart and we don’t notice? Heavenly Father may have placed those who need us
closest to us, knowing that we are best suited to meet their needs.”
Keep loving and keep serving each other!! I love you all so
much!!! You’re always in my prayers!!!
