Hello everyone!
This week was great for the most part. We had a great lesson with our friend John, who we found at the laundry mat! We did a Bible study with him and talked about a variety of gospel subjects. We were supposed to meet with him again but we were exposed to Covid. That was the rough part.
We also found Shelia this week! She is pretty cool! The missionaries had done service for Sheila in the past so we went over to ask her if she needed any more help. She didn't but started talking about family history and how she had done some work but had lost all her progress... we told her we could help her recover what she lost with the help of some friends in our ward! (Family History Consultants!) She was excited and we were excited and the helpers were excited and than exposed to Covid.
The plans we made got wiped out. It was rough. The most frustrating part was we couldn't meet with our friends. But if you don't have hard times you can't become better. So this week we did a lot of walking around to find people and visiting people who previous missionaries have met with.
One of my favorite scriptures that I wanted to share this week is: "1 But now thus saith the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine." (Isaiah 43:1) No matter what trials you are having the Lord knows you. He knows what your name is. He has redeemed you. In other words He has saved you. He loves you so much and wants you to be happy. He can help you be happy if you turn to HIm and repent. If you change.
Love you all!
