Can you all believe it is December?! How was Thanksgiving and the party?! Thank you for the letters and píctures!!! I love them, everyone looks them same.. but older! And it sounds like everything was great! And yeah!!! That is so good to hear that you have finished reading the Book of Mormon as a family and are going to start again!
Wow where to start... well this week has been a little rought. As we started out the week we were not making any of our metas or anything and we felt pretty down. I remember thinking oh no, this isn't good, I gotta keep being happy so that she (my companion) can enjoy the mission. So I was thinking to myself what I could change or what I could do better, praying and then after I just sat there in bed thinking because I couldn't sleep. As I sat there I had some impressions come to mind, that I needed to focus less on the numbers but more on the people, and teach people and not lessons. I mean they are obvious things but sometimes I just get in the habit of teaching.. So the next day I was really praying for charity and to talk with the people getting to know them and not just teaching a lesson, and it went so much better!! We felt alot happier and the people were more open. We as missionaries need to be aware of that. We cannot become complacent or think we are fine we always need to try to change and help the people and not fall into the trap of forgetting that these are GODS CHILDREN we are teaching. OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS.
I know Heavenly Father knows our potential, we just need to do his will and we can become who he wants us to be.
My companion is doing great! She is always teaching me new things.
That is about everything that is happening.. oh wait. Yesterday we were teaching a less active and her husband that is evangelico and he was saying some very weird things.... he was saying the Eve was tempted by satan and they slept together and that was the great sin. Her chastity. BUT NO. Everyone needs to read Jesus the Christ! It explains in there but that is the farthest thing, how could anyone think it was her Chastity... and also he was like so who was Adams first son.. Cain? haha the answer moses 5. Wow my companion killed it, but it was time to get out of that lesson, because we cannot be bashing.
Thank you all for everything I love you all so much and pray always for you all!!! Thank you for being the best family!
Love,
Hermana Louder
