Beef Chop to go Please



Hello. All is well here! Fun fact it rains sideways here. It's the best because your umbrella somehow gets wet on the inside! Also I let this member borrow my umbrella but I have a feeling I'll never see it again so I found one in our apartment that us red so when I walk down the streets I have a red coat, red umbrella, and red backpack. It's the best!

This week lots of people canceled on us or went out of town but we still had some good times. We had a first lesson with two sisters, the food first off was delicious, and it was incredible to see the way they responded to the restoration, they loved it, it felt familiar and right. This to me is such a testimony of the truth of this message. We were even able to discuss the step we would ask them to take once they know which was baptism. It was helpful to talk about this in the first lesson to establish why we were here and help them realize the importance of keeping their commitments.
This week I worked on making more mistakes! I had a few of the most uncomfortable contacts of my life but also some good ones as well! Haha I think one lady I talked to thought I was immigration services or something. It was not my best. Buuuuuuuuut... I'm learning
I am learning that submission is a part of humility. Sometimes you just have to get over yourself and do it, this is really difficult but I did a little better this week at talking with others, being patient and sacrificing my will a bit!
Fun story, we have this investigator Rosa, she is a hoot! She has spent her life just absorbing every religion possible and worldy ideas as well and is like a Buddhist catholic free spirit. She loves to talk and has some pretty fun views of the world, fortunately she loves Jesus. We have been working on teaching the plan of salvation but she has so many questions it takes awhile. So she comes to church, yay. Haha and we walk into gospel principles and the topic is the milenium. HahahahahahahabababahahHahahahahahaha it was the weirdest craziest Sunday school class I've been in. Here is what Rosa learned from class Sunday in a nutshell, 1) Satan is real, 2) something bout special underwear, 3) don't worry, there is such thing as temple divorce. Ya, it was insane. We will have to clear things up for probably the next month. But she came to church so Yay.

I feel pretty lucky to be here at Christmas. We have a great branch, chapel, missionaries, and the cutest senior couple ever who really want to make Christmas special. Plus we are thinking about Jesus alllllllll the tiiiiiiimmmme so it's the best!

Hope you all have a fantastic week and do something to share your testimony of Christ. What a blessing it is to know we have someone who knows us and loves us perfectly. Through him we can find strength we could never on our own.
Love you,
