Hey Family!
So our mission has just started implementing random Car fasts
(cannot use car) on random days and we get the opportunity to walk and
appreciate our cars..:) It's great.
So this last time we just decided to walk the city of Laurel in a
loop and talk to every person in the path. It was really fun and we
found too really awesome prepared people (people that are looking for
the Gospel and you are put in their path and they tell you that they had
been waiting for you). Oscar and Edwin! They both also came to church!
And they understand the scriptures!!! It makes the lessons so much
stronger when they have that desire and understand what we are sharing
with them.
Also we ran into this Blue and White house that had a cute little
old man out front cutting his grass. So we walked up to him and turned
out that he was very Greek and declared he was athiest.. so we offered
to cut his grass and he said no, he is athiest. It was just really funny
because he is Greek and lives in a very Greek house and we walked away
smiling. YAY car fasts!!!
So we also both got really sick this last week and Sister Aldridge
is still sick. So we stayed home from going to the visitor center and
she slept while I watched movies (Together Forever, and God's Plan-the
80's one with the guy on a horse talking about the plan of
salvation...classic). Then we wrote a song together, in our delirious
state, about the visitor center. Apparently it is good and I get to play
it for the new sisters coming in this next transfer. so that is fun!
Transfers are next week!!! ahh... I know where I want to go but I'm
trying hard not to think about it and enjoying this last week with
Sister Aldridge. She's so good and I have never worked so hard! She also
likes running so we run the nearby lake every P-day. :)
Good things are happening and every once in a while I look back and
realize how much I have grown and how much the Lord is a part of our
everyday life. I truly am realizing that my role here in the visitor
center is different than a lot of other missions and we get to teach
people that come from all over. I know that the majority of the people I
teach, I may never see again but I wouldn't trade those
tours/calls/chats for anything. The Gospel truly changes the lives of
those that apply and love it. I love you all and I hope all is well!
ALSO congrats on the theatre!!!! I'm so excited!!! :) hasta luego!
