Hey!
so.. this letter is going to be quick, im sorry! we have an appt soon..
this week we saw a lot of miracles, ill try to give just a brief summary.
tuesday. i think one of the hottest most miserable days of my life! every appt of the day failed, and so did all the back up plans! that never happens! we were inviting all day in the intense heat, by 4:00 we both thought we were going to pass out and we still had 5 more hours! we finally got one appt at night. the whole day we had no success with anyone! it was so hard. i woke up wed morning really discouraged and just thought to myself "there is no way i can keep doing more days like yesterday." but wed and thurs we ended up getting a lot of potential and new investigators! and we set a bap date already with one! it was the calm before the storm. the area is about up to where i expected it to be. sisters are back dominating the zone:) we are still doing a lot of inviting, but it is during much better hours, which leads me to my next thing. our hours are changed for a 3 month trial period due to heat related health problems, and no one being out in the afternoon. we wake up at 6 (not the most fun waking up when its dark) exercise and leave the house by 730. work until 130, and then begin our studies. its hard starting the day without scripture reading, immediately inviting the spirit into the day, but i guess this will just make me work harder to have the spirit with me all day. we leave the house again at 4 until 830, and then to bed at 10. its nice to beat the deathly heat during the day, though the house isnt much better, but atleast we have fans!
then on friday we found a less active that was assigned to us a few months ago, but no one has been able to find her. we were about to give her name back to the branch president and ask for a new one because we thought there was no way of finding her, members or the branch prez didnt know who she was. we stumbled apon her with the help of Heavenly Father!!!!! it was a miracle! now we have work set out for us to bring her back into the fold, she has been found! im excited, i love a challenge:)
ive been teaching a lot of piano lessons to members and also to some investigators, it is a good tool and also will benefit the church in the future because hardly anyone plays (it is an issue when the one player doesnt come to church and there isnt a missionary that can play)
we learned in the investigator sunday school that there is only one way to fold your arms when praying to heavenly father, each thumb on the inside of your elbow. she talked about it for like 10 min. oh the things we have to reteach and clarify to our converts and investigators because of those classes! hah i love thailand.. oh man so much to write, but were going to be late. much more to come next week.
i love you!
miss you
love, sister young
ps.. i still havent heard how to get grease out of skirts????!!!! help!! :)
