So this week was good guys! We found this awesome family of eight who we're now teaching, they're super cool and they love to ask us about God and who he is and how he can help us. Some great questions to even ask ourselves and they were asking us about this and we were blessed to have that great conversation guided by the spirit. I can tell God is important to them and I'm excited to continue these discussions.
We got to have a great community service project where we got to help one of our members here needed help to clean his yard. He lost his leg a while ago from diabetes and so his huge yard was like way to hard for him to clean, especially him being alone at his house. So we got to take out some trees which is exactly what a bunch of 18-21 yr old's need haha.
Anyway this week I really felt time just fly by the more I think about how to help these people and not about myself. I find that time not only goes faster but you find more of the good in people. I just want to share my testimony with you all. I have only been here for almost 2 years but I feel a big difference in my and hopefully other's lives. Since being here I have had to humble down, gain more confidence, love people that are hard to love, and learn how to serve in all situations. I have found that everything has a purpose and reason for why things happen. I have come to know that we aren't alone either, when we fall or fail we can get back up with a loving hand stretched out to help us. We do get 2nd chances, in-fact we get unlimited chances as long as we're doing our best. We are children of God who has a plan for each and everyone of us. He loves us and wants the best for us, that's why we have hardships in life so we can grow and that he can help us. I know I am loved and so are we all, and one day after this life I can be with my family again and I leave all my testimony with you all in Jesus's name amen.
Love you all and I'll see ya all in 3-ish months, kita-kita tayo doon sa amin bahay ha
