Wow so hears the news, Soeur Tenney is heading to South America!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! woohooo I"m gonna be on the south american continent! no longer an islander!! wow I'm so excited, i love going to new areas and I"ve been in this area a really long time now so this is amazing! You know I"ve always just had this feeling i would serve on south america, even before i got my mission call, but i thought I would speak french.. and what do you know! it happenned!!!! im so excited! it is going to be such an adventure the people are so huinble there and I'm gonna try and pick up some portaguese!! woo woooooo!! but anyways, im just pumped! I cant believe im leaving this place. I've made some real eternal friends and I'm super stoked for them all of my members investigators and less active ive been working with. Its been a real pleasure.
So this week was AWESOME!! conference! the best!! but some highlights of my week include visiting a less active and he made us crepes! He and I have a love hate relationship! haha I tell him all the time hes gotta come back to church and I annoy him, so in my soup he gave me the crab with the claws cus I'm vicious! I just cant accept no! and neither can the Lord! He's awesome though, nows the time i know the Lord wants and needs him back!
Then we colored eggs with this amazing member family that catches a stop to church every week.. SO FAITHFUL!!!! i love them! theyre so wonderful! man oh man she is so sad im leaving but it was really fun to bring them that tradition. and also, after little samuely was like 'its like jesus! he was ressurected like the eggs got a new color!' so fun!!
My favorite investigator right now has gotta be Lindsay. shes 13. she LOVES us! and she really wants to come to church! her dad has come twice and she keeps begging him to come. We called her and she said 'i really really want to come to your church but my dad had something come up and that really bugs me everytime i cant come!' im excited for her future. so she didnt come! but when we came to her lesson she brought 3 OF HER FRIENDS! already a missioanry :) i love her!
And then there was conference. wow. so much family and marriage! Sunday morning and saturday i was just OVERWHELMED with gratitude for my life. I literally know what these prophets are talking about because family has brought me the most happiness! and i am so happy for my two siblings who are MARRIED! way to go guys! your doing what they said! I literally just shed tears of joy for my blessing and happiness for my family! i love you so much! i cant really say what talk was my favorite but i just really got the message about family and marriage! i could just feel these apostles battling satan with their words! How blessed are we to have prophets on the earth! I love them and am so grateful for them!
I am so blessed. i love my family! im so grateful I can repay the Lord by serving a mission right now and helping others have the same blessings i have :) THE CHURCH IS TRUE! its so simple! im so sad that people who get tricked by satan but im here in martinique to help! and soon to be guyane! SO EXCITED!
je vous aime tous!
