oh how lovelyFriday was like one of the best days of my mission. We had a lesson with a young dude Luis and taught the restoration and he opened up how his brother had died last year. We testified of eternal families and gave him a book of mormon and he was so delighted!!!
We also started teaching Nora who was a referral from our branch mission leader and she was just FULL of the spirit. Our branch mish leader had prayed for a missionary opportunity and Nora an old friend of his walked into his office and he challenged her to start taking the lessons with us and taught her a lil bit- she loveeed the idea that angel Moroni could appear to Jospeh Smith. She knows he had to be a good man appointed as a prophet by God to be able to see an angel (wait till she knows he saw God and Jesus Christ too
) anywho she also came to church on sunday and went up and bore a beautiful testimony.

A quote I really liked from a BYU devo called "a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord" by Jeff R Holly is when hes talking about how God will allow us to go through trials if its ultimately for our good.
"So, when you are being hammered on the anvil of adversity, when your soul is being refined with severe lessons that perhaps cannot be learned in any other way, don’t cut and run. Don’t jump ship. Don’t shake your fist at your bishop or your mission president or God. Please stay with the only help and strength that can aid you in that painful time. When you stumble in the race of life, don’t crawl away from the very Physician who is unfailingly there to treat your injuries, lift you to your feet, and help you finish the course."
Hugs and loves
