Happy P-Day my family and friends!!! I hope your week has been great! My week has been BUSY! We had the opportunity to find some new people to teach and visit families in both of our wards this week!
To start, on Tuesday my district had district council and it is always super fun to get together to talk about our areas! After, we had our regular lunch together and this week we went to a place called Waffle house. There is about one every ten minutes away. (there are so many here) Its nothing too special, BUT it is apart of the southern experience, so i gotta check that off the list:)
On Wednesday a lesson canceled on us so we decided for dinner to get some ice-cream and walk around a park. While walking around we practiced our Spanish with some people we saw. Some people were having a good time talking with us, others...were not lol. We met one lady and she was so sweet. She explained how some of her extended family is members of the Church in Mexico. We mentioned how we teach English classes and she said that she would love to talk to us about Christ and classes!
One thing that we have found this week is that there are 2 AMAZING places that work the best for us to find people to teach about Christ and English classes. 1 is the Park (as stated above) and 2 is the International Market near us! We walk down the Hispanic isle and get to talk to people its a lot of fun! We also found 2 new people to teach English to teach in the store!
Tomorrow my Mission is having a Zone tour (one of the seventy of the Church) is coming to see the mission and give us training) We received a lot of pre-work to help us be prepared. One of the things we are asked to read is 2 Peter chapter 1. When I read this verse 2 really stood out to me.
"Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord"
I love this because we all want grace and peace in our lives and this tells us how we can. Through God and Jesus Christ! I know that there will never be a point in this life where we say okay I learned everything about Christ I am done. I know that strengthening our knowledge is a life long process and we should never stop. I want to invite you all to make time apart of your day to strengthen your knowledge of God and Jesus Christ by reading the scriptures. I know that if you do you will be blessed with grace and peace! I love you all and hope that you can take time to strengthen your knowledge this week:)
