So. Another week has come and gone, and I
am once more sitting in front of a computer in an internet cafe trying
to remember what happened this week, hahaha. But seriously. The week's
are flying by so fast I can never remember what has happened!
The first part of this week was ROUGH. Appointments
fell through, we had trouble walking, the sun was incredibly strong, we
went all the way to San Pedro (a trip of 1.5 to 2 hours) for a
cancelled activity (we did not know it had been canceled), struggled to
reach our goals for the week, and were practically chased down by an
angry, drunk man who we think wanted money. BUT I have learned for
myself that the experience in Alma 26:27 can happen to anyone:
27 Now when our hearts were depressed, and we were about toaturn back, behold, the Lord bcomforted us, and said: Go amongst thy brethren, the Lamanites, and bear with cpatience thinedafflictio
Sunday
was incredible and worth every difficulty. Tiarra, the daughter of
Yolani, came to church!! AND SHE LOVED IT. We also saw other less
active members come, and Sacrament Meeting was simply incredible. I
know this church is true! Tiarra and her mom are on fire with love of
the gospel. Last night, we went to their house and watched "Together
Forever". When we finished and asked them how they felt, Hermana Yolani
looked at us and said, "I remember. I remember watching this video
with the elders, and I remember why I got baptized. And I am going to
be baptized again." They are golden, and I love them so very much. The
Lord has given us success, and I know He will always bless us for our
obedience.
Funny Story: Saturday we went to visit an
investigator and found out that they needed help carrying some wood to
their house. So we went with them to a field. Well, cows had come
directly where the wood was. As we were contemplating what to do, I let
out a "Mooooooo" and the cows moved!! Wow guys, the gift of tongues
exists! :)
Well, I love you all a whole bunch. :)
LOVE;
Hermana Grondel :)
