Nancy summed up my week by her response to
conference, "I'm in love". I'm in love with my mission. I'm in love
with the gospel. I'm in love with the savior. I am so happy and so blessed to
be here in Boston. This week we have transfers but unfortunately we won't find
out until Tuesday evening if we will be leaving or not. Praying I get to stay
in the blessed land of Boston ❤
Well, I hope you all enjoyed conference as
much as I did. It was very empowering and a great reminder to trust in the Lord
and in his plan. Life has taken a lot of hard and unexpected turns lately but
I'm grateful for the reassurance and knowledge that God will always make things
work together for our good and all he asks is that we trust in him. How simple
is that?
Nothing too crazy happened this week, had 2
more exchanges with the lovely sisters, Sister Lima and Sister Woolley. It was
so fun being with both of them. As always, we worked hard, laughed, and
loved.
Few quick updates on the work, Jeff and Ky
are doing fabulous!! This week in our lesson they had so many questions we were
able to answer. They watched conference and had a lot of great things stick out
to them. I sure love them.
Sadly, we were teaching Elsie the other day
and she was telling us about how her brother in law has been sick and when we
were there with her she received a call saying that he had just passed away. It
was so tragic to hear but we know God has a plan.
Got to cook with Some Brazilians this week
and that was fun, I love being out here because we are surrounded by so many
different cultures and we get to learn about so many of them.
Signing off today with a quote from
conference, Michelle Craig was talking about a verse in Nephi and she pointed
this out "Nephi says "A way" not "The way"".
God's plan for YOU is perfect. It may not be
what you expect but it will always be what you need. Trusting in God and his
plan is never easy but I testify that His way is always the path that leads to
happiness.
It was a pretty casual and simple week so not
much of an update. Hope you all had the opportunity to feel of Christ's love
this weekend as you watched His Holy Prophet speak to us. Always remember him
in all that you do. Time to run off to the city, catch ya later! Love you all💓
