Looks like we meet again. Hi everyone! Another week, another email. This week was really good. Imma only talk about some things for the sake of the length of the email. First things first, on Wednesday we had two major miracles. First one, was our lesson with our friend Chris. He invited us in and the lesson went so good. And later in the week we saw him again. And then the second miracle of Wednesday was we had dinner with our friends Matt and Abi. If you've forgotten, they had us over for dinner a couple of weeks ago, they are a young couple with two young kids, and the nicest people. The time we spent with them was amazing, but not gonna lie, being in a family environment like that made me pretty homesick. But don't get me wrong, I absolutely loved it and it was so good. They asked us questions trying to stump us, but we'd use the Bible and they'd admit that our point made sense. They said next time they'll bring their cousin and we'll bring a member, and basically I think it'll be like a big Bible bash. We'll see though. They're still the nicest people ever.
Another amazing thing that happened was we had exchanges. Elder Mafi came to TTG with me. Man do I love that Togan. Our exchange was so fun and worked us half to death. We grinded the work. And miracle numero two of that day was after the exchange, Elder Shum and I went and had a lesson with our Aboriginal friends! Holy crap was I so happy. Definitely don't have favorites;)(ha, says every lying parent ever). Their names are Frank, Judy, and Rosemary. And the lesson went amazing and they loved the things we had to teach. We also got to teach using an Aboriginal art book that explains the lessons. Probably one of my favorite mission memories.
Some other side things that happened: we visited a member in this care places, he's been lonely so we pushed him in his wheelchair and he gave us a tour. (He's the one I have the Santa Clause picture with) Then to cheer him up we played a game of air-hockey which he absolutely loved. So that made us happy to see him happy. Something else that happened was Thanksgiving! And what did we do... got KFC. Because that's a bird. We went to the plaza to get it not realizing that it's Black Friday week! It was chaotic. So most people were shopping when we door knocked later. Hopefully the sale is still on because I have a money spending problem. Just kidding of course haha.
A little thought I have is who is Christ to us? The Savior asked his disciples of who people say he is. Who is he to us? Just a question I absolutely love asking people.
With Thanksgiving passing, I just wanted to say how thankful I am for all of you. Definitely couldn't be out here living my dream without all the love and support I get. So thank you so much. I love you all, and hope you have the most joyful and stellar week!
