Oh how much i love all of you! Mom you are the best! you answered all my questions (well at lest the one you knew the answers to) So It's September! How did that happen? Time is quick! Time is weird though. Days are long weeks are fast and the months don't even exist! :) well This week has been good. I am a little tired. For the first time we didn't go running. It's weird i think I'm more tired if i don't go running. HA that's a good thing. sister Stiles has been feeling under then weather all week so that's unfortunate but she has worked really hard! This week we had a lot of crazy things happen. I think this week i am going to give a play by play :)
Monday- P-day Spent with Sister Zenger and Sister Little I love sister Zenger nd miss her so it was good. We saw all these amazing flowers in center and ate yunny Mexican food! we then went to FHE with cute little member
Tuesday- The L'viv Sister came to our apartment at 5:30 because Sister Kekauoha is going to Bulgaria. Little sleep but it was okay. Then sister carpenter went on a hunt for my lost Ukrainian outfit that ws specially handmade for me and ws 100 dollars that the sister left it on their bus. We called the taxi nd went to the buses and never found it. I m super bummed. The worse part is the member hand made it for 3 months. Then we had meetings it was good. Then that night we went on exchanges with the RS president and this sister that is from cherkasii and got set apart and needed to be with sister because she was going to the mtc the next morning. So I went with the RS pres and it ws incredible we really bonded and she was great with this member that got baptised with the first members of the church 20 years ago but is inactive. It was a great lesson nd evening. Then we went home with our new companion and got things ready for her then at 3 in the morning we Had to help her out and get her to her taxi. It was really hard going back to bed after that.
So Wednesday we worked hard and didn't feel very successful. We were a little tired.
Thursday the sisters came back ad we were on exchanges till their train left t night but their plane got delayed so Sister Whitney and Carpenter were with us. Sister Whitney and I were together and she TOTALLY trunked me out. Ugh but I got over it just took day boooo to trunky topics. then Sister Kekauoha came back and we spent ll evening finding less actives. It was good to talk to her. I think she is struggling in L'viv little. It makes me sad for her and sister Carpenter I just love them both so much.
Friday was good we weekly planned forever!
Saturday We were bust finding more lost sheep but found a family that wants to practice English. BOOO to English but hopefully we can get them into the gospel.
Sunday was GREAT! So out random investigator Helen who has been in America showed up to church. Our other investigator Alexandra passed her baptismal interview and is getting baptised Saturday. Then we Had great lesson with her to get her excited and strengthened for the temptation that is coming before baptism. We then found a skirt for a less active that didn't have one and she was SO excited to dress nice for church. It's perfect her birthday is next Sunday so she will look all nice and pretty for Church nd her birthday. So the highlight of the week and the day was in Relief Society. The President Who is intense and never says anything nice especially about the missionaries because and I quote "She couldn't ENDURE the missionary lessons with the sisters" But I have been working SO hard to get in with her and it has been working. Well this week she stood up and told all the sister how great we were and ll the work we were doing. She encouraged all sisters to find time to come out and wi\ork with us that it strengthened her testimony by being with us and helping your sisters come back. She was great I almost cried. It was amazing. I am so grateful for her. I love her!!! I love working her It has been intense but I feel like we are really gaining the trust of the members for missionaries to come! What great work! What missionary work are you doing? Are you doing your visiting teaching and home teaching? Are you helping the missionaries recacivate less actives? Are you living as an example so that non members see your light? We live what we preach so get out and start preaching through your actions! You are amazing! I love you and heavenly father loves you even more!
