Heyo! Hope you are all happy and healthy!
This week has been lots of fun!
>There was one morning this week where a couple random fun things happened right off the bat and we just got a distinct feeling "Today's gonna be a good day" and then it WAS! Attitude is everything!
>Training a new sister has been a wonderful excuse to binge watch the District and wholly moly it is so good!
>We did a flip and point in the Book of Mormon with one of our friends and the verse we got was SO random but we kinda just tried to explain it a bit to her and didn't super know how to apply it to her question but then she just went off on how it answered her question! God knows His children and EXACTLY what THEY SPECIFICALLY need!
>We made cookies for our neighbors since we just moved in and we ding dong ditched all three of them at the same time! Haha triple ding dong ditch!
>Church this week was lovely as always but... Okay so we keep all the doors in the building open so nobody has to touch any surfaces to walk in... Well this week a BEE wanted to join us! Okay not gonna lie it was reaaaally funny to watch this bee go from person to person and people like see it and are surprised and scared and shew it away-- it literally felt like something that should be in a movie! ANYWAY it came over by us so it caught our eye and then it flew away but I was still kinda watching it and it flew and landed right on this sweet old lady's finger! I literally had a heart attack right there! But she didn't notice so this lady is just sitting there with a bee on her finger! Anyway another lady in the ward also was watching this whole thing and she nudges the lady and points at her hand and she gasps "oh!" and moves her hands and then the bee flew away! Miracle it didn't sting her I guess! Wow it was really funny! Thanks Corona!
Haha ok so some other funny stories:
> We made a video this week about baptism that involved us throwing food at one of the elders while he walked backwards so that he ends up really dirty at the end and then we put the video in reverse and all the food comes off --super dope. We rehearsed this video several times before adding the food... Then we did the final shot and threw food and holy cow it was CHAOS lol! It didn't go as planned at all and poor Elder Bloomquist couldn't even open his eyes! He got WRECKED BUT the video still turned out SO GOOD!! Kinda helped me see that even when things don't go "to plan" God can still make them work out for our good! And maybe even better than we thought. (*pictures at the end and be looking for the video on our Karen page*)
>Okay so the other funny story also has to do with Elder Bloomquist. Poor guy just got wrecked this week I guess haha! Anyway we were at volleyball and E. Morris had a bug on his shirt and E. Bloomquist was like, "Is that a bug?" And E. Morris was like "nah" but picked it up and then E. Bloomquist was like "oh ya that's not a bu-" and right as he said that the bug flew into his mouth so he started gagging and laughing at the same time! Wholly moly it was so funny I was just standing there watching the whole thing go down haha --good memories...
Well anyway! It has been a fun week!
One of the lady's in our ward on Sunday bore her testimony and it really hit me hard! She talked about how hard this time has been for some and how much things have changed in all aspects of her life and then she quoted one if my favorite hymns, Be Still My Soul where it says,
"In every change, He faithful will remain." Jesus Christ is with us through out this time and at every unexpected turn! And He is a source of comfort and peace to be able to keep going! I am so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father and for our Savior Jesus Christ! "All of these experiences, every single one, good and bad, is part of out earthly experience so enjoy the ride!" That's what another person bore testimony about on Sunday! This life is good and it's so good because God has a plan for us! So turn to Him to see the good when it gets hard!
Love you all! Have a great week!
Love, Sister Freeman ဖီပြံဝါ
