To start out I want to mention the scripture D&C 84:114. "Go to the city of New York... and also the city of Albuny." It mentions my area in the scriptures!!! ;) I thought that was pretty cool haha. Anyway, this week we've seen some progress. We've been receiving Head Quarter referrals for people who want to know about the gospel, so that's been a HUGE blessing. Hopefully we can meet them and start teaching soon!
We had another cool experience! We knocked on a lady's door named Rebecca. She let us in and we taught her about the Restoration. She received it well and was really curious about what we believe. She then told us that she felt like she knew us, that we seemed very familiar :) We were excited to hear that! :) She agree to read and pray, so we'll see what happens there! We also met a guy on the street named Alfonzo who might be interested too!
Oh yeah, someone that we talked to the other day told me that I look like I'm 14 years old... I wonder if I'll ever start to look older haha. I had another funny dream the other night. I was sitting in sacrament meeting and I started to get really hungry. So I started SHOVING my face with food hahaha. I was trying to hide my face, because I didn't want people to see that I was eating during the meeting. It was hilarious! I think I like food a little too much haha.
Sister Brown and I are getting to know each other more, but we still haven't completely connected yet. It's been brought to my knowledge that she has a "red" personality in the Color Code. That explains A LOT haha. It's a work in progress, but we'll get there! SO many members here have gone to school at USU :) It's really fun to be able to talk about Logan! I love the members!!
The other night we were listening to the talk called, "Finding Joy In the Journey" by President Monson. He mentioned a story about a father who was in prison or something in another country. He was allowed to write his family, but using only 25 words. So I thought about that and wondered what I would write to my current family or my future family if I only had 25 words. Here's what I came up with!
Cherish family. Be Christlike. Serve. Remember your worth. Faith. Keep covenants. Worthy mission. Pray. Laugh. Trials are blessings. Love deeply. Smile. Patience. Humility. Cherish moments.
What would all of you say??? ;) There's actually not much else to report about. It's been a good week though. Slow but steady things are going to pick up. I know this work is true and I'm grateful to be meeting people and helping them change their lives! I love our Savior and I'm grateful for the Atonement :)
I hope everyone back home is doing well! Love and miss you more than you know!!!
Love, Sister Hansen :)
