Greetings and salutation young and old, bond and free, fat
and skinny, kiwis and yanks!
Well, this week was another week on the mission. I keep
getting comments about my positive attitude in my weekly emails home. Thanks
for that, it's pretty cool to hear that. But I would like to be clear - I am
not happy 100% of the time. For those of you that know me, I am an easily
frustrated, quick-to-be-irritated person. Oh, and a bad habit I've picked up is
interrupting people to the MAX. My poor companion. Everybody pray for Sister
Woodbury ;) Luckily we have Jesus Christ, who can wipe away our mistakes and
allow us to progress.
Okay, now that that is out of the way, I love being a
missionary, everyone. It's almost like it tastes good. I just want to savor
every moment of this. We had interviews with President this weekend, and he
asked us to teach him the gospel. Um, intimidating much? I don't even have my
companion there to pick up the slack! But the spirit was so strong - i know the
gospel is true, or no one would listen to us missionaries. Seriously. I am so
grateful that the spirit is with us, that He will teach the people the lesson
they really need to know. Because sometimes we feel like we don't know what
we're doing haha!
Tamara is doing great after her baptism :) we have been
visiting her this week and she's doing great. Love her!!!! She's getting
started on her own family history, which, in her own words, "Motivates her
to keep going," so she can get to the temple. Aaaah! God's plan is
perfect. Temples help us endure to the end, it's so cool! Also, i think family
history work is SO COOL!! ALso, what are some good bands that she can listen to
that are 100% clean? i apparently only have long-term memory, because i can
only remember the bands i listened to in 7th grade, and not at university.
PLEASE EMAIL ME WITH THESE!! She is desperate.
also, what is "temperance" to all of you? I'm
studying it, and not getting much. thanks!
love you all! Hope you enjoyed this really random, not properly
thought out email!
