| Sister Fialho and Haws - May 2013 |
Hey ya'll! May
27th 2013
I hope this week finds
everyone well! It has been a very busy and fast paced week but it has been
great! We had 2 exchanges this week with some of our sisters and they both went
great! But my companion and I didn't realize how tiring exchanges can be. You
are normally always tired but exchanges just wipe you out but it is the best
kind of tired to be! We love being able to train the sisters and help them in
any way we can. We normally call their District leader to see what they want us
to work on with them and we also work with the things that the Mission
President wants us to make sure they are doing correct and then we ask them 3
things they really want to work on and improve on and so you have a lot to keep
in mind and you are supposed to set an example and talk to everyone and follow
the spirit! I think it just takes a lot of brain power to concentrate on all
that! But I truly love serving the sisters and being able to serve in this
calling!
We had kind of a slow week when it came to the
work itself. We had a couple investigators that didn't want to take the lessons
anymore and a couple of them that we had to drop because we never can reach
them and that was hard to see some of the rejecting the truth. But we know that
when 1 leaves, the Lord will place someone else in our path! We are ready to
see some miracles this week and excited to see what will happen. We have really
been struggling getting investigators to church. We have a lot of people say
that they will come but then they don't and it’s just disappointing! But you just keep moving forward and know that
we have to do all we can to help them make the right choice and then they have
their agency. It can be hard sometimes and honestly, my companion and I were a
little disappointed but we just know that the Lord will help us to overcome
this obstacle. It can be trying but that is when you grow.
I feel that my
testimony of the Restored Gospel has grown so much over this last week and
especially my appreciation for the Gift of the Holy Ghost. There was a couple
of times in a couple of situations that I couldn't feel it and then when I
could, It was so amazing and I am so
grateful for the comfort and guidance that it brings into my life. We have
another busy week this week with 2 more exchanges to do and a lot of work to
get done in our own area. And we are excited to be here! My companion goes back to temple square in 2
weeks and that will be hard to see her leave. It has been a great 2 transfers and I just
love her to death. I love you all and am so grateful for the support and love from
each of you ! Thank you! Sister Haws
