I am really sad to leave Bowling Green, It will always have a huge place in my heart! On the other hand, I am really excited to move on and serve wherever the Lord needs me! Don't have a lot time to email because we have a million things to do before tomorrow!
This week was an awesome week in Bowling Green! We found 8 new investigators, which is a miracle in and of itself! We had some truly amazing lessons. There are people who are searching in part of the world! One of the big successes this week is that we had a hugely successful group "noche de hogar" (FHE) in the house of a less active family! We casually mentioned to several people to bring something to share cause it was potluck. We were a little worried as potlucks can be sketchy, but we had more than enough food for about 50 people who showed up! Lesson learned: Latin potlucks don't disappoint. The theme was Jesus Christ, and it was a wonderful!
Another highlight this week is that we had a worldwide missionary broadcast! They changed up a lot with our schedule and key indicators and we have a lot more freedom/agency! Our mission had already been living the changes for a while so it wasn't anything too crazy!
Sacrament Meeting was amazing yesterday. A convert to the church spoke of his long conversion story, and he talked about how he learned one truth from the Book of Mormon that has changed his whole approach to the gospel. He quoted in Alma 41:10, "Wickedness never was happiness." It made me think about one of my favorite conference talks by Neal A. Maxwell. It says, "Only by aligning our wills with God’s is full happiness to be found. Anything less results in a lesser portion."
I hope y'all have a great week, I'm going to brush up on my southern talk!
Con amor!
