Monday-
We had an indoor snowball fight! A member family invited us over for
dinner and FHE. Reminded me of "Who's the duck?" and dog piles after the
prayer.
Tuesday- My favorite lesson of the day was
reenacting the Book of Mormon stories with a part member family. I also
had my last dermatologist appointment here in Tennessee!
Wednesday-
Exchange in Christiana! I was in a trio for the day. They are a party,
but it can be tricky to teach in unity. We went to a Book of Mormon
class that another ward in the area puts on. The room was full!!! The
number of new converts, returning members, and investigators was
astounding!
Thursday- Our morning was quite the adventure! We
rode on the "rover" which is Murfreesboro City bus system. My days in
London working the Underground proved to be handy and miraculously we
didn't get lost! We volunteered at a community help center and got to
know some of the more colorful characters of Murfreesboro. We also had
an incredible lesson about the Plan of Salvation with a lady named
Angel. She is so ready for the gospel!
Friday- We kicked off the 40 Day Fast for the ward
today! Despite the hot temps and biking as our transportation, we
survived! Incredible to see how the Lord will strengthen us over and
over again. That night we met a part member family who had a library in
their house!!! It was so beautiful to see all of those books so neatly
organized! Apparently the mission didn't squash the nerd out of me.
Saturday- What started as a perfectly planned day,
ended up as the day where the Lord wanted us to be. We had members come
out with us, a less active commit to stop smoking for a month, an
investigator at a baptism, and reviewing fasting with a lot of new
members!
Sunday- Angel came to church!!!! After much prayer
and overcoming obstacles, she came! She only stayed for half of
sacrament meeting (she thought her boys were too active), but she came!!
It was Heath Spear's baptism (nephew to the Malta Merediths) and we
were able to attend! And I was able to see some Malta-ites!! Love that
little taste of home!
It was really such a wonderful week! My heart is
full of the tender mercies of the Lord and the incredible things I get
to witness His children doing. Being surrounded by the gospel changes
you.
My PMG study was rushed, but the section on
accountability was a good reminder that we all have to face
accountability one day. So we can use it to bless us or condemn us.
Agency!
Sorry for my jumbled email! It is a reflection of my life right now!
WILL YOU continue to pray for our baptism this transfer and specifically pray for Angel and Sammy by name?
God bless you!
Love Sister Neener (:
