Transfer 2 in Country!


This week has definitely been a doozy. After traveling to Bangkok, I picked up a terrible cold and about a billion mosquito bites...so I've been pretty sick. But luckily my new companion Sister Weed has been taking very good care of me. I've learned so much from her already in terms of different ways to learn and improve in the language, and new techniques when it comes to contacting. On Saturday we were able to contact for a bit, and even with me being sick, we were able to see a ton of success and had new investigators at church!

This week I also had the opportunity to study about meekness and humility. I learned that Meekness=godfearing, righteous, humble, teachable, patient under suffering, calm, docile, tolerant, and submissive. Being Meek means behaving with goodness and kindness, showing strength, serenity, healthy self-worth, and self-control. The Humble are teachable, recognize how dependent they are on God, and desire to be subject to His will.

I feel like this has been something I have always struggled with. But since being in Thailand and serving the people here, they have taught me a lot about these principles. Even when they have so little, the Thai people exemplify these attributes of Meekness and Humility. Hopefully I can improve in these areas as well!

Sorry kind of a short email this week! Love and miss you all!

Farewell, Sister Orchard!

Sister Bee and her family helped us get all of Sister Orchard's stuff to the bus station. Sister Bee rode Sister Orchard's bike and followed us in the car! soooo crazy

Some of the members came to see us off at the bus station :)
