Perhe!
Well, it was a fun week, all of it pretty much spent
inside in the training program meetings and on the holiday but SO MUCH was
learned. Once again I feel that a big part of me training was for the purpose
of being at Interim with President Watson and the other missionaries so I could
really gather and learn what I need to do these last weeks. And Sister Nelson
is on fire, her greenie spirit gives me so much strength and she has such an
amazing desire to improve! Wow, I am amazed by the grace God gives me in every
aspect of my life.
We were able to go to the temple this week, eat WAY
too much food (totally worth it) and share in many wonderful testimony-strengthening
discussions.
I love the beauty of this gospel and how simple it is.
We focused a lot on charity and amongst talking about the Atonement, the
gospel, the Book of Mormon, Joseph Smith story, patience, planning, temple,
and many more discussions, the source was all the same: Our Heavenly Father
loves us and He wants us back. That is the purpose for everything. The purpose
for learning, the purpose for serving. He loves us so perfectly and has made a
plan so complete so that every person has the best possible opportunity to live
with Him again. I am so grateful for this knowledge. What else is more
important to know?
Juhannuspäivä went well, we deep clean our apartment
and it has made the biggest difference for the Spirit in our home! I never knew
that applied so much to missionaries haha, our apartments are usually a mess
but it was actually quite fun to clean things out. Besides that we are looking
forward to some packed weeks of great lessons and hard work! As far as songs to
sing for the homecoming, can i think about that and give you a sure answer next
week? I have a couple in mind of my favorites in Finnish but i want to make it
the best :) I don’t know what other missionaries are coming to my homecoming, I
only have 3 companions that are home now and one of them lives in Germany haha.
But because it would be hard to coordinate, were we thinking of having the
whole family or the trio (me, megan and rach) sing? I am excited for how it
will turn out!
I am so grateful to be here and see the miracles we
are able to see every day! I hope i answered all the questions i needed to... I
love you all!!! :)
