Hi everyone!!! Happy OCTOBER 12! I can't believe it's the MIDDLE of October! This week FLEWWWWW by!!
As for the title of this email...In our lesson with Victor out of NO WHERE he started laughing because he came up with a nickname for me. King Angel started last night and he thought it was a pretty good one hahaha
Here are a few highlights:
-we had some awesome lessons with our sweet recent converts :) they are AMAZING.
I had mission leadership council and it was SO GREAT. this past week has been FULL of trainings and meetings haha, I had a meeting or training EVERYDAY this week but it was so great and I have been learning OH SO MUCH!!!!
-miracle time! We had decided that we needed to drop (stop trying to teach) 3 people named Sandrix, Carolina and Rosalida and we visited all three of their house and THEY WEREN'T THERE. Super sad right? Well miracle #1 was that Rosalida's husband was home and was more than happy to get cookies from us haha, we got to talk with him and he wants us to come back to teach Rosalida AND HIM. Wow, right? Miracle #2 with Sandrix is that we called her after nobody answering the door at her house and she ANSWERED right away over the phone and we talked for 10 minutes about how shes interested in learning and all about her strong beliefs in our Savior. Miracle #3 is with Carolina! She hasnt answered us in WEEKS and we said a prayer before we called her to see if she answered and if not, we told God we were going to drop her. She ANSWERED and asked us for a lesson! HOLY COW. ammi right? This all happened within the same hour! SO CRAZY!
-We met the SWEETEST Peruvian lady named Melba and she has 4 kiddos that she wants to start bringing to church! She had a friend growing up that was a member of the church and she ALWAYS wondered about it. When she moved to the states from LIMA PERU (I cant believe it either
), she wanted to learn about it!! SHES THE BEST!!! We are so excited to start teaching her!!!!
-We are starting to really see FACEBOOK THRIVE. We had a few lessons with referral from Facebook and WOW. Facebook is the best door knocker I've ever seen. These people are ELECT and so ready for the gospel!!!! Wow!!! It is so crazy the way God continues to further His work!!! SO COOL!!!!!
This week was a great one to say the least!!! This upcoming week we have Zone Conference and BOY am I excited!!! Sister Hartshorn and I are giving a training and I have prayed everyday that'll itll go well haha! The Spirit always takes over and helps and WOW am I grateful for that!!!!
I wanted to share a quote with you all this week!! This is from Elder Holland from one of his talks in 2013 but it REALLY hit me this week.
"Above all, never lose faith in your Father in Heaven, who loves you more than you can comprehend. As President Monson said to the Relief Society sisters so movingly last Saturday evening: “That love never changes. … It is there for you when you are sad or happy, discouraged or hopeful. God’s love is there for you whether or not you feel you deserve [it]. It is simply always there."
This week I prayed more than ever to feel the love of my Heavenly Father. I struggle with so many things but if there's on thing my mission has ENGRAVED in my mind is how much God loves us and is SO WILLING to show us. I have spent a lot of time on my knees and I have felt the love of my Heavenly Father. We're not perfect. But we have access to the perfect love that our Father in Heaven has for us :) life is SO HARD, there's no question about that. Sometimes we struggle, sometimes we're down, sometimes we hit rock bottom. But something that never is a "sometimes" is the love of our Heavenly Father. I hope you ALL know how much love He has for each of you. As for the challenge this week, I invite you all to kneel down and pray, I mean really pray and ask your Father in Heaven if He loves you. I can promise you, without a doubt in my mind, He will answer it.
God loves you. Christ loves you. And Hermana King loves you:))
You all are the best friends a girl could ask for. Thank you for everything:) I LOVE YOU!!!
Love,
Hermana King:)
