I hit my month mark this week, which I know is not something huge, but I honestly cannot believe I have been out for a month! I do not think I have ever been happier or worked harder.
Happy things of this week!
1. I got in to the Business School at BYU! I am so incredibly grateful and know this is a huge blessing.
2. We have a shower! haha funny story. When I got here the shower was straight ice. So cold. Which will be nice in the summer, but right now its actually super cold! So we have been heating up water, pouring it in a bucket, and showering...haha #paraguay. But it is fixed now! Hot showers yay!
3. We have so many progressing investigators. I did not think I could ever love strangers more. The work here in Mariano is crazy and each day there is so much to do, so many people to visit, but it is good work and keeps us busy!
4.The Sociedad de Socorro put on a talent show this saturday which was so fun! There were so many people from the branch there, my comp and I did a musical number, and it was a lot of good company. I am so grateful for the branch here. They are so patient with me, truly are trying to get to know me, and they are so willing to help us out! We are fed every single day. Which is a huge blessing too.
This past week my comp shared with me a quote from Our Search For Happiness. It said, Adversity becomes an adventure in the service of the Lord. This quote obviously applies to the mission and my life right now, but I know that it applies to every single one of you. As we forget ourselves and do the work of the Lord, we will be more blessed and be happier than we could be on our own. Lean on the Lord and he will lift you up. I am so grateful for my knowledge of his plan for us and that each hard thing is another learning experience. I am so humbled to be serving the Lord. I hope yall have another great week! Good luck with school starting back!
