Hello! Remember when April was almost over? Yikes.
Monday
we had Family Home Evening with the Schnieder family and their cute
little girls-- we talked about how God is our loving, Heavenly
Father--it's true! He loves us.
I
went to Barrie on exchanges! I went with a sister and we talked about
wonderful things that opened my eyes to the importance of
sharing experiences to strengthen others
having complete trust in the Lord and the happiness THAT brings
doing the right things for the right reasons
not being afraid to dream big and becoming the best we can
I also got to be companions with my best friend for a day, aka Sister Coleman. No big deal. The most blessed day.
We've
also been visiting a less-active, Ruth. She is special. She has such a
strong testimony! She just needs to come to church and partake of the
sacrament so that she can be cleansed and start each week fresh! She
will come back after she gets out of the hospital. And her husband,
Matt, whom we are teaching, has been praying for her to get better,
which means he has been praying, and that's good!
While
at the hospital, there was this little old woman. We got to sing to her
and a little while after, she said, "Who are those two boys by the
door?" There was no one by the door...she must've seen angels. :) I know
they're real.
We
met with Muriel! She was this woman we found while tracting around her
house. When we knocked on her door, she answered and said she had been
watching us and told herself that if we came to her door, then we must
have a message to deliver to her from God... and boy, do we!! We taught
her about the restoration of the gospel and she understands it all and
is praying about whether the book of Mormon is true and if she should be
baptized! Exciting.
We
also visited an old woman in our ward to help her clean out her closet
and she ended up giving us sooo many of her old clothes... Now I don't
have to go shopping, so that's helpful!!
We
are also teaching us this woman from Hungary who got baptized two years
ago and the member she is staying with is the grandmother of one of the
sisters that taught her back home in Hungary! CRAZY. She is so excited
to improve her english and do family history and go to the Temple!
That's the life.
Brother
Newall also taught Priesthood yesterday! He even had to cancel some
appointments with us to prepare. He is doing so awesome.
Things are great here in Bramladesh. (Brampton has a lot of Indian people, we love it. #turbans>touques
