Boy this week FLEW by! And OH BOY I got stories!
A cool story:
Earlier this week we got talking to this really smart and intellectual guy about religion. He has studied religion a ton and he was telling us some neat things. Then we asked what he has learned about our church. He said, "There's something different about Mormons" and for many reasons. For starters He talked about how the Mormon church is different in religious studies because it is the only American christian church, so that makes it stand out but also the people. He said that studies have shown Mormons to be generally happier. He also said that there is something different about how Mormons look (I found this super interesting). He said that Mormons have a certain happy glow and he attributed that to the fact that we don't drink coffee or alcohol or do drugs (Word of Wisdom) but really it's because we have the light of Christ! Our countenances have that light that comes from following Him! Who knew that talking to an atheist would strengthen my beliefs!
Funny Story:
SO Sister Campos and I are in a competition for who can scare the other more... so the other day I was being so sneaky and I hid around a corner so that I could scare her but this random guy came around the corner instead! So I scared him on accident! And what's better, I got it on video! It was so embarrassing!
Big news:
YA'LL there are NEW BOOK OF MORMON videos coming out and the first one came out on Friday and it is so good!
Also, S/O to Anna for her Birthday today! Happy Happy Birthday!
Joshua 1:9
"Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee withersoever thou goest."
It is so easy to get caught up in the world these days but if we have courage and trust in God, He will be with us wherever we go! It takes courage to live this gospel and to maybe stand out but think about it, you stand out as a light! "There's something different about Mormons" and that's a good thing! Others can be drawn closer to Christ because of our light! So be strong and of good courage and remember that God is with you! I love you all!
Love, Sister Freeman

*Just to clarify, after I scared him, he said 'no it's ok' and he was laughing and we talked to him later and he was super chill haha he thought it was funny.
5-6 This is a funny story from a couple weeks ago that happened with one of our investigators and I don't think I shared it with ya'll but I took pictures of how Sister Campos told the story haha!
