Hello!
HAHA. You know, there are some really funny and crazy things that happen to missionaries. It was around 8:00 at night, and sister Urbina and I were walking back to our car after a lesson. We decided to street contact a man who was just sitting on his porch. Before sister Urbina or I could say anything he goes "Not interested, shouldn't you girls be at home with your husbands??" The sassiness in me came out and I replied "No, because we don't have husbands. But thanks!" Afterwards, we got in the car and just laughed about it. So random.
Anyways, this week was good and bad. But we all have those weeks right? We had a lot of lessons is week, which was great! I love teaching people, especially about the gospel.
Something that I've really been trying to work on is street contacting. It's hard, sometimes to just go up to a random stranger and ask them if they would like to hear a message or talk to us. But I've noticed that every time I talk to someone I feel better, and every time I let that one person pass me I feel HORRIBLE. I'm just trying to open my mouth at all times!
This week, I'm thankful for my Ward family, family, and friends. Well, I'm thankful for y'all all the time but this week especially. I'm thankful for the constant love, and support. It really helps, especially in the toughest of times.
I went on exchanges with my STL (sister training leader) this week and she told me she really likes how I show love for everyone I talk to. Which is really nice to hear because that's what I've been working on lately. It's so important to love everyone, even when it's hard. It's hard to have that Christlike love for EVERYONE, but I think it's something that everyone should strive to do. Plus, you're more happy when you have love in your heart rather than hate or anger. Nobody is ever going to be perfect at it (besides Christ haha) but it's something that we need to try and do. I promise that is we show love to everyone we meet, we will not only be happier but our testimonies will grow!
Love you all.
