Hi Everyone!
The beginning of the week was a little
rough, a lot of our appointments canceled and tracting was hard too.
The video I attached shows how excited Sister D and I were when some
actually answered the door :) But the end of the week was super
good.
On Thursday, we went to specialized
training (half the mission was there!) We learned about the
importance of Praying, Reading the scriptures, and Obeying the
commandments everyday. All of us got a ring the says PRO and on the
inside it says, "I promise to pray, read, and obey, everyday!"
Then we had 3 different training on how to make sure we, ourselves,
are always praying, reading, and obeying and how to encourage others
to do the same!
On Friday, we met a family who was a
referral that the Spanish Sisters had met. They are super excited to
learn more about coming closer to Christ! I am excited to meet with
them more! I was talking a lot to the mom and answering her
questions, and then Sister D looked right at her eleven year old son
and said directly to him, "This is for you too, Jesus loves
children and he wants you to do this along with your mom." He
looked so happy, and had teary eyes. I love moments when the Spirit
is there with us and everyone can feel it!
On Saturday, we got to go to the stake
center to watch the General Women's Conference! You can watch it at
gc.lds.org It was really good, all the speakers had such amazing
messages, and it was awesome to know that all the women of the church
were watching it all around the world at the same time!
On Sunday, T, who was baptized last
week, was welcomed as a new member of our ward. Our Bishop got
emotional talking about how much T had been a good influence in the
ward. Everyone loves T. :)
Elder Zivic (
https://www.lds.org/church/leader/claudio-d-zivic?lang=eng ) of the
seventy was at church in Plano 6th ward last Sunday visiting his
young married son (who is one of our awesome ward missionaries!!) My
companion and I sang with two elders during church and then Elder
Zivic got to end the meeting with his testimony. He shook our hands
and thanked us for all we do as missionaries, it was awesome!!
This morning I found this scripture I
really like when reading in 2 Corinthians:
“Not for that we have dominion over
your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.”
-2 Corinthians 2:24 I love
helping people find joy by adding to their faith in Christ!
It was transfer week and I am happy to
be staying in Plano with Sister D for another 6 weeks! I love being a
missionary!!!
Sincerely,
Sister D. Greenall
