Kia Ora 朋友和家庭！
This week was interesting! I have less time to write today, but here is a little bit:
Ups:
- So many kind and cute dogs
- Exchanges with the STLS- I was with Sister Rich and Sister Miller. We were able to have a little taste of how life is in the English program in Glen Innes (East Auckland). The Islanders are so receptive to the gospel! It was very interesting.
- And again, I am so grateful for my nice flat.
- I've had so many days where I've contacted people, who might not necessarily be interested in hearing more at this time, but I felt like we had a nice connection and I really felt a Christ-like love for them
- We have the opportunity this week to participate in multiple musical numbers: Folofola (Folofola Mai ʻa Sīsū, Hymn #27 in the Tongan Hymnal) for Zone conference, Carol of the Bells, and What Child Is this? for our Branch's Christmas activity.
- One of the other Sisters' friends accepted baptism! It was beautiful to see how excited and happy she was.
- We made 3 different desserts for that baptism about 20 minutes before bed. It was wild how much we were zooming around our little kitchen.
- We contact people and I'm able to use a little Japanese and Spanish on the street. Usually I just stick with saying "Church of Jesus Christ..." in their language and give them our website, but I love it so much.
Downs: I just always feel busy! There is now downtime. But it's also really fulfilling and joyful, so I think I just need to mentally organize myself better.
Simple Truth:
We continue progressing after this life Alma 11:
42 Now, there is a death which is called a temporal death; and the death of Christ shall loose the bands of this temporal death, that all shall be raised from this temporal death.
43 The spirit and the body shall be reunited again in its perfect form; both limb and joint shall be restored to its proper frame, even as we now are at this time; and we shall be brought to stand before God, knowing even as we know now, and have a bright recollection of all our guilt.
44 Now, this restoration shall come to all, both old and young, both bond and free, both male and female, both the wicked and the righteous; and even there shall not so much as a hair of their heads be lost; but every thing shall be restored to its perfect frame, as it is now, or in the body, and shall be brought and be arraigned before the bar of Christ the Son, and God the Father, and the Holy Spirit, which is one Eternal God, to be judged according to their works, whether they be good or whether they be evil.
Much love!43 The spirit and the body shall be reunited again in its perfect form; both limb and joint shall be restored to its proper frame, even as we now are at this time; and we shall be brought to stand before God, knowing even as we know now, and have a bright recollection of all our guilt.
