Hello everyone!
This week has definitely been better with getting more adjusted and all the Facebook stuff we have to do at transfers has died down.
The title of this email is a quote from our friend Shane who got baptized last month. We've been doing the recent convert lessons with him and he told us that ever since his baptism he has felt like there is a "righteous fire" burning inside of him and we were able to testify that it is the Gift of the Holy Ghost that he has been feeling! So cool!
We've been having lots of member lessons as that has been a focus in our mission recently. The goal is to build strong relationships and have a weekly lesson with as many members as possible so that they will trust us and give us their friends to teach.
Last night we had a super spiritual chapel tour with someone we are teaching (Travis), our recent convert (Shane), and their friend (Gordon). Travis is the most logical person I've ever met and we are struggling to help him feel the Spirit. Sister Rosa and I did a musical number and then we had a mini testimony meeting and... I cried. It was so spiritual! The bummer is that Travis didn't seem to be phased by any of it so we don't know what to do next. We will keep trying though! He told us that if he could get a confirmation that God exists and that the gospel is true, he would be baptized so that's good.
Today we had a fun district activity playing sand volleyball at a park. My district is the best!!! We also napped (like we do every P-day haha) because my companion and I have both been exhausted all week.
I don't remember if I said this last week but Sister Rosa likes to run with me! So we've been going on some beautiful runs around the lake by our apartment complex in the mornings which has been so nice.
