Love you more than...
REESES!
and TRAIL MIX! :)
Sorry
this email is late! What happened is that the internet shut down in the mission
home while I was writing the email so it was not able to send or save and until
now the internet at the mission home wont work! So don't worry, I'm alive and
all is well! Haha :)
SOooooo
hows it going? I love that you got to go to the homecoming and meet everyone!
How was the missionary/family's get together? And how fun to take a quick trip
up to Island Park aka heaven! :) I have been praying for you all soooo much
this week. Not sure why but this week more than ever I just really have been
thinking about us as a family. Even across the globe, I know we are still
eternally tied! And Heavenly Father is definitely keeping an eye out for each
of us.
Well
the highlights of the week were going to Medan on splits, making a music video
for fib and then an awesome lesson in Sunday school.
MEDAN!
It is so fun to get to see into another missionary's world for a minute and see
their work. I learn so much from these Sisters and their investigators! We also
met some wayyyy cool people on the plane and even gave away an English book of Mormon!
Sister Believe goes home soon so it was nice to catch up with her as well. I
went on splits with Sister Wigand and she is SOOO cool! She was at BYU-H before
the mish!
I also
loved that we made that Come Unto Christ music video (I assumed you saw it haha
mission moms and all) and it already has so many hits! Facebook is growing!
It's getting better and I'm starting to like it more which brings me to the
next highlight...
WE HAD
THE BEST-COMBINED LESSON YESTERDAY! The AP's taught the whole ward about how to
use social media to hasten the work and if you could felt the spirit in that
room... I think every ward in the world should have a lesson about it. During
that lesson we had all the members with their ipads and smart phones and they
were liking our pages and sharing it with friends and the talk from Elder
Bednar about Sweeping the earth as if a flood of goodness... SOOOO great! I
really enjoyed it!
We are
seeing some great things here in Jakarta! Our members are figuring out how to
be better missionaries and we are learning to be better with our time online!
SIster
Lely is still planning on being baptized next week but it will take a lot of
prayers. PLEASE pray for her! I couldn't bare to see this not go through. She
needs this and her family needs this. I think it's been a rough time for her
since she decided to be baptized, but man, the blessings are just going to
overflow when we can stick through to the end. :)
"The
great end of education is to discipline rather than to furnish the mind; to
train it to the use of its own powers, rather than fill it with the
accumulation of others." -Tryon Edwards
I think
at this point of my mission, I have gathered a lot of information. Lots of
things that I've figured out and yet I need to get DOING them. SO my goal for
the last few weeks is to be a DISCIPLined DISCIPLe :) I feel like sometimes you
get this testimony building experience and "level up" on one idea...
maybe prayer for example but then after a while you have to learn and grow more
with prayer. We are never done learning. Ya maybe we have already heard it all
before but now we are hearing it again and need to be better about the DOING.
PS I
just talked with Tasi, Auntie Amy's cousin, a few days ago! Smalll world :) But
anyways she says that they will be in Jakarta on December 10-20 if we wanted to
stay with them it would be best during that time.
I love
you so much and it kills me that I can't send a ton but I hope you have a
spritual "level-up" week. Pray for us here in Jakarta. Its a real
transition period and its gonna take some strength :)
Haha I
always want to end my emails like we end lessons... "ada tambahan lagi
atau pertanyaan yang mau disampaikan? Kalau tidak ada..."
LOVE
YOU! Make me proud! :) Brush your teeth! Take luck! Give everyone a hug for me!
