Sorry for being such a slacker the last couple of weeks! I will repent and be sure to write every week for the rest of my mission. haha. ;)
I don't even know where to start. The last
couple of weeks have been pretty hard. My comp is still sick and there is a
good chance that she will be going home soon. It has been emotionally
exhausting trying to help her, but I know that the Lord has helped me to know
what to say and do. It's definitely been a lot harder for her though so I have
no right to complain. I've just been talking it one day at a time. I'm good
though. Things are starting to get a little better again.
So I have no idea where we left off so I will
just write whatever comes to mind.
On Saturday we had the Mountain View ward annual chili cook-off. We
were the official judges so we got to sample all of the chili! I almost killed
over with a couple of them though. Apparently it tastes good to have your
tastes buds seared off by peppers. haha. I do like spicy but some of the guys
got a little crazy with it. My poor comp about passed out haha.
On Thursday I went on exchanges with Sister
Van Heel from Minnesota .
It was especially fun because I got to go back to Chino Hills! Ah, it was just
what I needed. I didn't get to go to Diamond Bar but I at least got to go back
to where we spent most of our P-days. I forgot how hilly that place is! I met
so many wonderful people and I left just feeling so inspired. I'm so grateful
for my STL's and how in tune with the Spirit they really are. It was the first
time I wasn't in charge for like 8 months so it was kind of nice haha.
Things with investigators have been kinda
slow. Our baptismal dates got moved back again:( But we've done all we could
for now. The work must go on! Stinken Satan keeps getting in the way! What the
meow.
I have been learning so much the last couple
of weeks about selfless service and just how important it is to serve despite
inconvenience or circumstances. Christ wasn't lying when He said that we need
to have unconditional; love and self less service. In fact, when it's the most
inconvenient or hardest is the time when it matters the most. So I challenge
you all to go and do one act of service a day, despite inconvenience or
personal gain. Got it? cool.
I have to go but I just wanted to let you all
know I wasn't dead. Keep being wonderful! and know that I love you.
