Good to hear that you went to the temple before it closes! I really miss being able to go to the temple. Glad to hear Andrew is back from his mission. Time goes by so fast.
You are right about the mission being a mini lifetime. I have learned so much since I've been here and I know I will learn even more.
We had another great lesson with Vili. We talked about temples. Everything just clicked with her. Especially when we brought up eternal marriage. She said that everything that we do in the temple makes sense and she wants to prepare for the temple. Also, she mentioned about serving a mission again. She tole us how we as missionaries saved her (we know it was Heavenly Father) and she wants to save someone else. Vili is such a great example to me. I wish you can all meet her someday.
We decided to try something different this week and wnted to go contacting with some members in our branch. So we went out contacting with Vanya and Sedska on different days. It was so great having them come with us and testify! It was great that they could explain how they are members of the church and know that it is true. They invited everyone we talked with to church. They were so excited because everyone assured us they would come. Sunday came and none of the people showed. They were a little dissapointed but they told us how much they respect us for what we do everyday, and that it's hard work. They told us that they want to come with us again! So we will be contacting with them again. I love doing this because we are helping the members of the branch be missionaries.
We had a great young women's as always! We played some games and Neli (the non member who wants to be baptized but has to wait for parent approval) Told us how she wants to be a missionary after she is baptized! These young women are great!
Fast and testimony meeting was amazing! The spirit was so strong. Vili bore her testimony and so did Meri ( one of the YW). These people are so new in the church, and yet their testimonies are so strong.
We taught Relief Society yesterday. It was great. The topic was "The Worth os Souls" it was great having a conversation with the woman about how we are all God's children and we all are unique and special.
I really love these people here. I really wish that you all could meet and become acquainted with these marvelous people. I am so happy to be here right now to serve these people.
Thank you for all of your love, support and prayers. I am so blessed to have you in my life. I hope you all have a great week! Stay strong and read your scriptures!
Love,
Love,
Sister Farnsworth
