Sorry I don't have much time today!
So last weekend (new years' weekend) we had a mission wide sisters' exchange! It was so so cool to see how each person was needed in each area for that weekend! I was with a sister from Australia named sister Arthur and she was so so sweet!
So while on exchanges, sister Arthur and I 전도ed together and we saw lots of miracles! we saw a group of ladies coming our way so we were going to say hi but then they just whizzed passed us and then we saw two ladies walking by so this time we didn't want to miss them so we just said hello as they walked by and one of them stopped. she looked really confused and asked us "it's really cold. like really really cold. why are you out here?" and then we talked to her for a minute and she spoke really good English too. so sister arthur had the chance to bear her beautiful testimony in English! she asked us "are you really happy?" and we explained that yes, we are really happy no matter what because of our Savior Jesus Christ. and then this sister said "well, i'm kinda lonely these days. and i feel like something is missing in my life. so i'd really like to visit your church sometime." sister Arthur and I were so so so excited! it was like a scene from "the district" dvds!! so we just met her today upon HER request through text! and she told us she's been looking for a way to gain faith for the past year and half and it was cool because we showed her the sacrament meeting room and she said "i've been to a lot of different churches for the past year and half and this feels different." wow. we are going to meet her every week on tuesday at 3:30! we are very excited!
This week I re-read an article by elder wirthlin and he said that "those who make happiness the chief objective of life are bound to fail, for happiness is a by-product rather than an end in itself. Happiness comes from doing one's duty and knowing that his life is in harmony with God and His commandments." So it's that simple. we just do what we are supposed to do as missionaries and we're good to go! I'm slowly learning line upon line throughout my mission that this is indeed true! yay for tender mercies :)
Anyway, we took lots of pictures at New Years' Conference but i'll attach them next week! love you all! 엄마 아빠 싸랑해요~ ^^
