What the Heck it's May!

Hi everyone!

This week... Not gunna lie was super exhausting. But so much fun and
challenging at the same time :) we had a lot of finding and lessons
with people in our ward and people that we tracted into on the street.
On Wednesday we did a district service project, we weeded someone's
entire yard and then helped someone move furniture into storage! And
then we went out for ice cream afterwards! On Thursday we were
supposed to have a meeting with Elder Holland. But sadly that didn't
happen... I guess he had difficulties with his plane and he just
wasn't able to make it to see all of us. But!! We got to hear from
Elder Lynn G. Robbins he's the president of the Quorum of the 70! I
guess a lot of people were disappointed they couldn't hear from elder
holland, but I thought elder Robbins discussion was so good!! We heard
him talk for 3 1/2 hours, and I learned so much in that amount of
time. He talked a lot about forgiveness and why it's so important to
forgive and love everyone. He said " when we are unable to forgive
others we separate ourselves from God. Heavenly Father forgives ALL of
his children" just think of how many times you have been unforgiving.
I know I have sometimes and I felt awful about it. Heavenly Father
loves all of his children and we need to forgive everyone, whether
it's someone who did something to you or its you needing to forgive
yourself. I loved that he talked about that because I feel like many
struggle with that, and we need to not only be loving to others but to
ourselves. You can choose to love.
On Friday we had sister special edition training. So, all of the
sisters in the mission got together for a session at the temple. Right
before we were able to hear from the president of the Phoenix AZ
temple and then after our session we heard from his wife. The Phoenix
temple is beautiful! It was my first time going to that temple, and I
loved every minute of it. I was able to see my old MTC companions and
see and meet all of the other sisters! I love them all!! After the
temple we had dinner and then a short meeting with sister griffin. She
is truly amazing and she helps all of us so much. One thing she said
was "Love yourself the way Heavenly Father loves you". We are all
children of our Heavenly Father and he loves us. :)
I love you all, have a great week!!
