Before I forget- there's
actually a sister in my zone right now who is in the hospital, really sick, so
if you could, please keep Hermana Juarez in your prayers!!
I don't have a ton to
say, because I just barely talked to my family yesterday! But I do have a few
interesting things I can share!
Skyping with my family!
I had to hang up and call back, and when
the Skype call connected, THIS was my view!
I just love my crazy sisters!!!
I went to the doctor Tuesday for
my hip, and it turns out I pulled a muscle, and I had to get an anti-inflammatory
shot! It was the last thing I was expecting. I thought maybe an x-ray, or
physical therapy or something but not a shot! But it did actually help quite a bit,
so that's good. I've found that if I stay really active and don't sit too much
and let it get stiff, it's a lot better.
My favorite Hna.
Marble quote this week: "I love you, you're amazing, sorry I'm a butthead,
now gimme some chocolate!" (I got some Ghirardelli dark chocolate squares
from my dad for my birthday last week.)
Something really cool that
happened on Wednesday was we got a text from Aaron (Tyler’s friend) that said
" I really want to meet up with you guys, I have some questions. Are you
available next week?" That NEVER happens! It is really exciting teaching
him, he is so prepared!
YESTERDAY I ATE
CHEESECAKE. I just really love cheesecake! Thank you Sis. Curtis!
On Tuesday we had
Zone Training Meeting, and it was actually super motivating and encouraging. It
got me really pumped up to go out and talk to everyone. One thing we focused on
is what our fears are about talking to the people we see. Then we talked about
how there really is no excuse! Why not talk to everyone? What's the worst thing
that could happen? You get rejected? They are a stranger, and you'll probably
move in a couple of months anyways, so who cares? It's very freeing and
liberating when you think about it that way.
After ZTM some members
showed up at the church and surprised us by taking all 18 of us in the zone out
for lunch!! It was delicious! We went to this pizza place in Hood River.
Mount Hood
I get to go to the temple Thursday!!! Since we do not have a temple in our mission, I haven't been able to go since I was at the MTC. But we got special permission to go to the Columbia River Temple as a zone and with President and Sister Lewis. I'm so excited!
Something really cool
that I realized this week, while studying about the Plan of Salvation (more on
that later) is that to be damned really means to not live up to your divine
potential. It's like eternal regret.
Some of my favorite
verses this week:
1 Ne 17:13
2 Ne 2:11 <-
what doesn't kill you makes you stronger!
All of Isaiah chapter
29. SO COOL.
Remember who you are
and what you believe in. SUPERAR
Our car was getting SO DIRTY and there are no car washes here!
We said, the only thing we can do is pray for rain!! Then the next day it poured!
Making Mothers Day Cards!
