Happy Thanksgiving!
It has been a great week! On Monday we had FHE and we had frog for dinner. It was pretty good except there wasn't really all that much to eat. The members here are so amazing though. They dont have very much food or money but try to make it an amazing dinner. I am so very grateful for dedicated Saints who are set on serving the Lord, following his commandments and trying to further his work.
On Tuesday night we went to a seminary class and taught about preparing for a mission. Many of the youth want to and are excited to serve. At the district meeting on Tuesday the senior couple brought some homemade chocolate chip cookies! I almost died...they were soooo good!
On Wednesday for lunch we ate the chicken reproductive system...it was rather gross and the texture was funny. Other then that it was just another day out in the field.
Thursday was great! I made spaghetti for our Thanksgiving dinner. It was pretty good if i do say so myself. I found some sausage looking things at the store so i decided to put those in the spaghetti haha and then we had some fresh rolls that a nanay made us. It was awesome and we were very grateful for our Thanksgiving dinner.
On Friday my companion was feeling sick so i pretty much had the whole day to do studying. It was really nice and i love just being able to sit down and really dive into the Book of Mormon. I feel like i am able to learn so much from it everyday as i take the time to sit down and ponder over the inspired words. I also just got a Book of Mormon manuel thing from the Branch President which has a lot of great quotes and insight about the BoM.
Saturday was a long day. We were punted from our first 3 lessons. So we spent a lot of time just doing service for people on the street, leaving a pamphlet with our contact info and a short message and testimony. We ended up going to a members house had a small snack and she gave us a referral to contact.
Sunday was a long day! It was fast sunday so i was more hungry then usual. It was a normal day of work and we got to have dinner at Presidents at the end. It was unfortunately fish though. Not my favorite but its better then nothing!
Our nanay that committed to be baptized isnt doing to well. She has missed our last two lessons. We do have another investigator though. A sister in the ward is having her bf investigate and he seems very interested and loves to learn and talk with us.
I love you all!
