Hello all!
I love you! This email will be short because. um. No time? How is there never any time?
Anyways, this week has been amazing.
Bullet list:
-We unwittingly helped a woman come back to church for the first
time in 25 years. We knocked into her this week and didn't even realize
it until we found out that she had called our bishop and requested us to
come back. And she came to church on Sunday! It was. Amazing. One of
the most tender and beautiful things I've seen.
-We helped two English ladies from Australia break into their car with a hanger
-We ate tri-tip
-I petted the Herrera's cats again!!!
-In church the ward choir sang "Where Can I Turn For Peace" on top of "Be Still My Soul". It was beautiful!
Oh man, that's sort of the highlight only not really? So much
happens in a week, it's tough to fully explain it all. But rest assured
that the work continues on. This area is very difficult as far as
knocking doors or getting people to teach. Other areas you might have 20
lessons in a week. I'd say we might have had 20 lessons in the past 4
weeks, cumulative. It's tough. But the thing is we still get out every
single day and knock as many doors and talk to as many people as we
possibly can. And because we're working hard, Heavenly Father blesses us
with miracles. Like people coming in to church while we're playing
basketball and asking to be taught (that happened this week). Or people
coming back to church for the first time in 25 years. Or petting cats.
Miracles. All miracles. So, all you missionaries out there reading this:
if you work hard, even when it feels like you aren't getting anywhere,
the Lord will bless you for your efforts.
I love you all. I want to invite each and every one of you to church this sunday! You can go on lds.org
and type in your address and find out what's closest to you. If you are
wondering why I'm out here or what I do or talk about all day, that's
the best and easiest way to find out.
I promise pictures next week.
I love you all. I've only got two weeks left in Frisco! OMG.
Love love love,
Elder Christman
