To start the past week off on a really great note, we found out that Marcos and Bryan won't be going to Florida after all! Talk about a reason to rejoice! Hna Medeiros and I literally flipped out when we heard the news! We are so blessed to be able to work with these guys!
Spanish is still coming along slowly, but surely. It's pretty cool to see where I have come in eight months. Obviously, I have a lot to work on still, but the gift of tongues is a real thing! One of our investigators, Elizabeth, had to take her son to the dentist and asked if we would go with her. When we got there, the receptionist didn't speak Spanish, so I got to translate! After, the paperwork that Elizabeth had to fill out was all in English so again, I translated. I haven't ever had to really talk about dental things in Spanish, so there was a lot of acting involved too (I'm sure the people around LOVED that haha), but it is really cool to see how blessed I have been with learning the language!
On the day of love and friendship, we decided to do some heart attacking! Since we are missionaries and have rules to be at our house during the nighttime, we got to do it in broad daylight! It made it a little more of a challenge, but we accepted and had a great time!
This weekend was stake conference for this wonderful Spanish stake! Elder Dan Jones from the seventy came and spoke. It was AMAZING. One thing that really stood out to me during the Sunday and adult sessions was how much temples were talked about.
28 ¶Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meekand lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Feeling weighed down, stressed, or having a hard time with something? Go to the temple and your burden will be made light! Whatever it may be, attending the temple WILL help!
Love,
Hermana Rupp
