LIKE WHOA!!!!
I just have a short spiritual thought today. :) from the Bible, John 14:18. "I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you." I love this simple scripture, it is so powerful. I think sometimes the short and sweet verses are the ones we can really relate to most. I know that Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father will not ever leave us
comfortless. Christ suffered for us so that He could understand what we feel, whether it be physical, spiritual, or emotional pain. We all have different struggles,
but He has felt them ALL! So He knows what we need, we just have to allow Him to heal us. He is waiting:)
We did some service this week! Yay!!!! Service is the best! :) we went to the Utah Food Bank to do some stuff there (we rationed dog food haha...) and also we volunteered for a little bit at the animal shelter another day. We played with this little chihuahua dog... I know it wasn't all chihuahua haha.. But yeah! It was cool! One day I will definitely adopt a dog from a shelter. ;) We had a zone meeting out in Hurricane this week, and when it was time for the role play, our mission Pres, President Center, said "we want to role play with you, sister Crane and sister Lau!" Can you say SCARY. I think I almost died... Not really, but I was nervous! We taught the restoration, focusing on the First Vision and how we can help people
understand without telling them outright that they are feeling the Spirit. So like how to help them recognize it on their own. :) Madi is scheduled for baptism on the
20th, AH that's next weekend!!!! and we had a lesson with her, she said she wanted to have lessons every day this week and then said she just wants to hang out with us
every day, and sister Lau was like "we can teach you Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday... And then you can be baptized on Wednesday!" And it was a "you had to be there" moment... But Madi was dying because she thought it was so funny haha! She is progressing really well though. :) We had another lesson with Colleen on Friday! It's only the second lesson... It's killing me because she's amazing but we can only meet with her every other weekend! So we'd appreciate prayers on Colleen's behalf. :) gracias hermanos y hermanas;) but
she said she wants to be baptized! We will pray about a date for her and see how that goes next lesson!! We text her a scripture to read from the Book of Mormon
every day and she loves it! I will definitely keep in contact with her for... Ever haha.
Sister Lau's birthday was on Saturday! She's 20! We didn't do anything crazy, but she said it was a good birthday. Oh and Happy Chinese New Year haha!
Today has been a super crazy pday! We had a hike with the zone at 11, and then did service for like 30 minutes, lunch, grocery shopping, car wash, and now emails. Doesn't sound busy but it was! Ummm and we et transfer calls this weekend! So next week I will know what life will be like for the next 6 weeks haha. I think that's about it... The weather is warming up, today was 60 degrees! PERFECT WEATHER!!!! Be safe everybody!
:) love y'all!
Oh and here's some pics:) All from the zone hike today
