Bună Bună!!!
Had a train today and don't have a ton of time so here's just an overall summary of the week:
- English Class!! Our friend Marius brought snacks because it was his saint day (cool Orthdox tradition) and we decided to plan a wedding!!!! Twas lit!
-Miracle!!! Went tramvai finding and ended up running into a girl I have been messaging on Facebook for a few months now!! We're gonna meet up this week!! Let's gooo!
- District Activity!!!! Did some service at our branch President's house, had a fire District council in a park in a random small town over some ice cream, stale bread, pizza and with the company of stray dogs. We had a fire meal (probably one of my favorite member meals yet) and then of course throw in a few rickety trains and there you have a successful day!!
-Solid flower finding and block knocking sessions on Friday. Can't complain too much!
-Miracle again!! Saturday we had people at games night!!! The Lord's hand in the work is real. So games night consisted of:
-us 4 missionaries (normal)
- 1 friend whose been coming for a bit we haven't talked much about the gospel
- A lady who stopped us on the street about a month ago and her son, both open to talking about religion
-our member family the Ions (who have said every weekend since I've been here that they will come to Games Night but this is the first time the have succeeded in coming)
We were able to basically have three gospel lessons at once. Us, Sora Elena and the Lady were able to talk together with Sora Elena popping off sharing her fire testimony. Sorin playing ping pong with her son, bearing his small, simple, but nonetheless powerful testimony as much as he could. And then with everyone else occupied the Elders were able to have conversation with our other friend able the gospel as well. It ended with some Books of Mormon handed out and hopefully more conversations!!
In the middle of activity I just sat there completely overcome by the spirit. As I looked around I just knew that God's hand had been in this work. He put these people in our path to be there at this exact moment. Out here it can be really easy to think that the work isn't progressing, that no one will listen, that maybe there really isn't anyone prepared for our message. It can be tiring and discouraging. But this night I knew that these people were prepared to be there, that the work we are doing here really isn't all for nothing. And even if these people don't progress in the gospel this was testament to me that the work I'm doing is important, and God is working through me. I am so thankful for this experience.
Gând Spiritual:
Romans 8:28
28) And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
Vă iubesc!!
