We had a good week this week, especially in the Visitors' Center! A lot of people came in on Saturday who were looking to strengthen their relationship with Jesus Christ! Here are a few experiences that we had:
Noah and Carlin- Noah and Carlin were a couple that came
in who were both Jewish! They had SO many AMAZING questions about our faith!
They approached us and it was so great to take them around the Visitors' Center! We ended up spending three hours with them! They
were great examples to me!
Two Catholic girls- So two Catholic girls living here in
DC came into the VC and they said that they had to come and check out the
temple because they drive past it every day! They said that they had a lot of
friends out serving missions right now and that they wanted to learn more! One
of the girls said that she really looked up to one of her friends out serving a
mission! I thought this was the coolest thing! They had such great questions and it was so fun taking
them around!
Laura and her daughter- This sweet lady named Laura came
into the VC and told us how her daughter had to do a research paper about our
religion! We told them that they came to the PERFECT place! We took them around
and shared our beliefs with them and GUESS WHAT? They gladly agreed to learning
more and for us to keep in touch! The whole time the mom was saying, "This
is so interesting!" She was very spiritually sensitive and loved the spirt
that was present at the Visitors' Center!
Mark Lusvardi- So Mark Lusvardi is in charge of all of the
Visitors' Centers around the world! We had the wonderful opportunity
this morning to hear from him! He gave wonderful insights on how we can better
use Visitors' Centers! We also got to see the sneak peak of the new Christmas
Videos the Church is putting out this year! They are SO GOOD! I cant wait for
you all to see them! :)
In our area this week we had a little tender mercy from
our Heavenly Father! We were out having
a crazy night contacting. We were handing out pictures of Jesus Christ
and we came across this lady named Jessica! She is from Brazil and she loved
what we were sharing! She was interested in learning more! She said she was
really open to learning more about Jesus Christ! YAY! We are meeting with her
tomorrow!
Yesterday our mission President and his wife came and
spoke at our ward! It was the BEST! I love them so much! The whole Sunday was
centered on Missionary Work and how we can better follow the example of Jesus
Christ! It was amazing! We loved it! It was the best Sunday ever.
Here is my spiritual thought to finish up: "Satan
wants us to be perfect by ourselves. God wants us to be perfect through Jesus
Christ." I LOVE this quote! I know that it is through Jesus Christ
that we can become better! As we strive to follow the example of Jesus Christ,
we will become what ever we want to become!
Love you all!Sister Megan Freeman
Sister Hugely (an AMAZING lady in our ward) took us out to dinner!
She is the BEST and is like another grandma to us!:)
Haha, Sister Haertling and I were twins for Halloween!
Our ward trunk or treat was super fun
Our Gospel Principles class!!:)
GUESS WHAT!? Bernice went through the temple for the first time and the missionary
that taught her when she was younger came down for it! It was so neat!:)!
