I want to talk about Miracles!



so the "l" key and the ")" key don't really work. (just imagine me pounding the keyboard every time... if you need a funny image in your head to stay motivated to keep reading.)

this week... i'll probably keep it short. 
i just want to talk about miracles! 
about the person that walked in yesterday (because sister remington talked to her over a month ago...) timing. it's all timing. 
we also met with an "ex"-monk. maybe. pretty sure he's still VERY buddhist. but he likes meeting with us. and he's always got really cute like comments like, "love is giving" and gives a little bag full of two apples, two bananas, two cookies and two breath mints. pretty much the cutest thing ever! 
sister remington and i survived the hottest somtam i've eaten in our lives. (mine... maybe not.) but the lady was from the easan... so she doesn't know the meaning of "not spicy". i also did a crazy thing and got a crab in mine. (i can see you wrinkle your nose...) it was actually ok! i'm not convinced in it every time though.... the best part of the whole meal was watching sister remington pull out a few pieces of papaya... then wash them off with water. :) 
and our investigators brought their friends to church! it's the best thing. to see when they see what blessings they see from the gospel... and wanting to share it with others! (or maybe just being afraid to come to church alone...) but it still gets them there! and i know they are able to feel something different. 

other weird parts of the week. 
watching "acro-yoga" in the part. trying to figure out WHAT it actually was... to quote the guy we asked, "you just come, have fun, do a little acro-yoga and just do... whatever."
strange. 

this week for our book of mormon class, we had the class build a boat in the middle of the gym. (i would send a pic... a member liked it so much she asked to borrow my memory card...) lets just say... reenacting anything with this district... is always a hoot. 

one thing that really impressed me this week was the thought: 
we got through really hard things so that we can help someone else. 
i don't know if i've necessarily gone through REALLY hard things... but i do know of someone that did. jesus christ suffered all things so that he could help us. and if we really want to follow him, we will use our trials as a way to grow, so that one day we can help other people to see their potential, and to see past their current circumstance.

i love you all! 
keep enduring! (is this spoken more to myself? i can't tell...)

this gospel is true! and i love it with all my heart. 
see yaaaaaaa!
