Monday:
It wasn't our p-day because we had the temple trip the next day, so I
think I already updated you on what happened last Monday in an email on
Tuesday..
Tuesday: We got to go to the Meridian temple again! It was so great 😊
Wednesday:
We went on exchanges with Sisters Tuku and Saunders, and, because
Sister Tuku just got her appendix out this past Tuesday, I stayed in
with her as she healed.. it was a restful day 😊👍
Thursday:
We had a great district meeting and then afterwards had the thought to
go to our lesson with Betty half an hour early, so (unsure why) we did.
Then, when we pulled up, a member that lives across the street was
angrily sorting things into bins outside in the hot sun alone. So, we
walked up and asked if she needed help and she said she was moving and
the people who promised to help her never showed up so she'd been
packing alone all day and we were able to help her and she calmed down
as she talked with us and we shared a message about how He's aware of
her and she started crying and said we were an answer to her
prayers. 😊💛 Tender mercy to be used to bless His children
unexpectedly! Then, we had a really good lesson with Betty right after!
Friday:
We had exchanges with the Hermanas and I got to go to their area, and
pretty much just sat there as all of the Spanish lessons were being
given, lol. But it was super funny because one of the families in their
ward was moving the next day so they went to say goodbye to them and the
family (the other Sisters came back over to say goodbye, too, so Sister
Sanders and I were together again during the hour), although they know a
bit of English, didn't want to talk to us in it, so instead they just
made fun of us the whole time in Spanish (naturally) and we had no idea
what they were saying. They were funny though. 😂 Then, when we
exchanged back, we got a text from Sister Tuku asking if we could get
something from Walmart for her and, although it wasn't Monday, we wanted
to help her so we went. While there, we were approached by a man who
said he was a recent convert to the church and he had been trying to
contact his bishop because he had questions that were unsettling to him
about some things he'd heard and we were able to go to the Burger King
that was attached to the Walmart and say a prayer with him and answer
his questions as guided by the Spirit, and it was cool to see how the
Lord guided us to him as we were just seeking to help people in whatever
way we could. He inspired our thoughts and guided our path to help His
other children we didn't even realize would be there or be in need!
Saturday:
We made cookies and dropped them off at people's houses to contact them
and it was a lot of fun, and at one house we've been trying to contact
for a while a huge black man opened the door on the third knock and said
quickly in a really low voice, "My name's Clyde." We both jumped
because we didn't think anyone would answer. It was funny. He was cool
though, so that was good.
Sunday: We had church
all day long again and everyone just kept giving us granola bars until
we felt sick (because we were starving and that was all the food they
had). Then, we had another good lesson with Deanna, our new investigator
from last Sunday who we're studying the Book of Mormon with.
I
know that the Lord knows us all and He knows what we're all going
through and what we need, and He does provide- especially when we ask in
faith- because His work and His glory is to bring to pass our immortality and eternal life. Our Heavenly Father and His Son Jesus Christ love you so much! Don't forget it!
Have a great week!
Sister Wilcox 😁✌💛
