Hola mi familia!
How is all? I'm missing you so much and I want you to know how much I love and pray for you every day.
We
ate at a member's home this week, and the wife made hot chocolate. When
I went to take a sip of mine, she said "Sister Moreland, you might
recognize this hot chocolate!" I took a sip and sure enough, it was
Mama's Hot Chocolate! I was so happy to have that delicious stuff in my
tummy again. Thanks Mom, it was a wonderful way to feel at home :)
I
wish I remembered a lot about this week but the truth is I don't. I
didn't write in my journal at all so, as a result, my memory has been
wiped clean of all that happened before Monday.
MONDAY.
Monday we had a mission tour! It's where someone cool comes and speaks
in the mission. And by "cool" I mean a general authority!! Elder Martino
and his wife came and spoke to us and it was amaaaazing! Oh and by the
way, they are from Denton, Texas, and they know Grandma Jeanette and
Papa Joe! Apparently they've known her for 40-some odd-years. What a
small world! Anyway, it was SO inspiring and so encouraging. I got so
many ideas of how I can be doing better at missionary work. For one,
I've decided to commit to praying more. Just more communication with my
Heavenly Father throughout the day. And better quality prayers, too.
Sometimes a prayer at 10:29 when you're about to pass out just doesn't
cut it. Good-quality communication is the key to any good relationship,
right? So it's gotta be the same way with God, too. I'll let you know
how that commitment goes and how it improves my relationship with Him.
Also I've made a goal not to get fat. But that's kind of
hard when members are feeding you every stinkin' night. So we'll see
where that goes as well.
