Hello everyone :)
Well, I am proud to say I had my first piece of alligator meat last night. Yes, our branch president may or may not be a gator hunter...haha it is pretty much the greatest thing ever. Well not my favorite meat, tastes kinda fishy but I had to say I tried it!
We had some great training this week, and more emphasis put on helping members get profiles on mormon.org. It is so important and really helps people relate to the church in a more personal way.
I have met so many amazing people this week, the Lord has led us to them and I am learning so much from them. We met this young girl who is a teenager, she is amazing and has such a hunger to find the truth. We love her already, and can't wait to keep showing her the potential she has in this life.
We helped Jasmin set goals to get to the temple this month, and told her and another recent convert what to expect. They both are so excited to go, and I love bearing my testimony about the temple to them.
We helped another Senora plant a seed to "plant her faith" she believes a lot in faith and how it will help you understand God better in life. I have learned and realized so much from her, and have only been to her house three times. Her little girl just comes and hugs me 3-4 times every time we come over and asks when we are coming back. They can tell the difference of the Spirit, and we can testify to these people that they have more potential than they imagine- the Lord helps us see their potential as His missionaries, and I am so grateful for this. It is changing my view point on people in general, and on myself.
We are drawing lots of pictures for people, they are understanding more, and the spirit comes. Even though neither of us draw whatsoever haha. I love teaching, and the Lord is helping me listen more and more. It is so important, and then at the right moment he tells you what to say. I love this feeling. and I am realizing more and more that the Lord loves everyone and has so much in store for them.
We had a great day at church yesterday, lots of people came and during Sunday school a lot of the recent converts, and investigators shared their testimonies, and how their lives have changed since coming to church more and more, and their "process of conversion" how they have seen the help of the Lord in their life, and His help in helping them come to understand Him better. That is what life is about, because we need to want, desire and strive to become like Him. He will help :)
I love you all, hope you make it a great week!
