Hello Soosday!
So another week of
being a missionary!! Wooh hoo! I can't believe I’ve almost been gone for six
months! Crazy! Let's see what happened this week... let me tell you I am so
pumped about Christmas. Christmas music all the time and we've been teaching
about Christ's birth every chance we get. So so fun. It's actually so fantastic
to be in a country where Christmas isn't a thing. No one except for church
members celebrate Christmas. This is the first Christmas season where I've
really just been excited about the true meaning of Christmas. The Savior!! His
Birth. His Life. His Love! It's so awesome. I have felt so close to Him. And we
all can too.
We have
pretty awesome new investigators. Last Sunday I saw this neakming (woman) who I
swear I knew. I thought "in Steung Mean Chey" or "did we contact
her?" Finally I figured out that she had come to English class! Anyways
she came again to church this Sunday. I sat by her and she said, "I want
to join." How awesome is that. She
found it through a simple little English class flyer. Anyways I'm excited for
her. This Sunday we had six of our investigators come to church! So
awesome!
I just want to tell
everyone right now reading this email that Heavenly Father answers prayers!
This week was pretty hard for me. It’s easy to feel alone, stressed, not good
enough. So I decided to pray and tell my Heavenly Father all my feelings. Those
were some of the most sincere, heartfelt prayers I have ever offered. He is our
Father. We are His children. He is proud of us. He sees in us potential that we
cannot. He wants to hear our voice. And He loves us. So pray to your Father in
Heaven! I promise He will listen, give you an answer, help and extra! So happy
week this week!
Happy Holidays! Enjoy
the snow, I will be sweating.
Much love and luck
and prayers,
Sister Mortell
