NYOB ZOO TSEV NEEG UAS KUV HLUB TIAG TIAG! [Dear Family I Love You Truly!]
Things
are going really well here in Fresno, Pioneer Park East. We just had
president interviews this last week and they were awesome. Its great
getting 1-on-1 time with President. You get correction, inspiration,
love, everything...just in one big package! He's the best! Our area is
doing really well too! We've been finding a lot of people to teach and
just getting ready for baptisms so its REAL good.
We have been teaching the Hmong class and we've been
doing a lot more tracting. We haven't seen the results from the Hmong
class yet, but we have been working hard in our finding efforts.
This last Sunday, we had epic fail translating
moments! It was pretty funny. We were translating for Sunday School and
it was just bad. The teacher kept asking us (missionaries) questions and
I'm translating...."So she's now asking us a question and we don't
really understand her." (Note: questions about Zedekiah and Brother of
Jared's name.....I'm saying WHAT?! right?) Hahaha. Yeah, still working
on the Hmong.
Answers to Mom's Questions:
So
yeah, we run every day still. Nope Hmong is still hard to learn even
with a native speaker. Also, we didn't get to see the devotional. The
stake decided not to broadcast :( Also, I'll let you know about the
calling at Christmas stuff. We will be receiving instructions in the next 2 weeks.
Spiritual Thought
Also, I had a
really cool experience this week. We had just got done teaching a family
and it was dark outside. As we were walking to the car, I got chastised
by the spirit about "TALKING TO EVERYONE." As missionaries, God
prepares people for us to find and teach. However, because we don't
always know who those people are we have to talk to everyone. By talking
to everyone you can find the prepared people. However, as Hmong
missionaries we sometimes shy away from talking to people other than
Hmong. In my heart I realized, I was wrong for not talking to ALL PEOPLE
that crossed our paths. Therefore, I said in my heart: "Father, I'm
sorry I haven't been talking to everyone. Please forgive me for this.
Please give me someone right now and I will talk to them, NO MATTER
WHAT." Now remember its dark outside and nobody is around. But right
when I said this silent prayer in my heart, a garage door opened and a
man walked out. Then, as I had promised, I went and talked with him. He
was willing to let missionaries come back and I knew that it was
no coincidence he came outside at that very moment. I know that God
answers our prayers. He hears us! He loves us! He is literally our
Father and He is concerned with the details of our lives. So for anyone
that may not know this or may have forgotten; GO TRY IT! Ask Him if He's
really there. Promise Him you will act when He gives you an answer.
Then JUST DO IT (NIKE)!
Love you all! Hope you are all doing well.
LOVE
