Rain and Miracles

Went to a Buddhist temple for P-day

This week seriously feels like a blur...I just remember...it rained A LOT...and that I'm really out of shape with all this biking we do here.

But we saw miracles!!! So one day, we were contacting at Big C (aka the walmart of thailand) and I contacted this guy who conveniently forgot his phone number....so I'm thinking..ok moving on, he obviously doesn't wanna learn. But the guy goes on to say "but this is your number right? ok I'll call it for sure." And being a missionary...we kinda hear that a lot. So I went away thinking it was just a more polite rejection....but guess what....HE CALLED!!! He called that very same day asking when and where he could learn more about our church!!! MIRACLE!!! And he now has a date for baptism this Sunday! His name is Brother ทอป (Top) and he literally has just been so prepared! He came for all 3 hours of church yesterday and showed up 45 minutes early just in case haha, AND he let us teach him for half an our after church! I've never seen anyone so ready and willing to learn! So make sure to keep him in your prayers! Updates to come for sure!

Our P-day group...yup the elders just love us ;)

We volunteer at the hospital pharmacy on Fridays (thought you'd be proud dad haha)

Spiritual note for this week, "The most cherished and sacred moments of our lives are those filled with the spirit of love. The greater the measure of our love, the greater is our joy. In the end, the development of such love is the true measure of success in life." (Joseph B. Wirthlin)

I love this quote! The longer I've been out here in Thailand, the more I've learned that this work is all about loving others. Because when we truly love others, then do they feel God's love for them. And it is sometimes really really hard to love people, when they make dumb choices, reject you, or just look down upon you and make you feel small or insignificant. But I promise that the moments when we reach out and love others by serving them in any way we can are really when we come closer to God ourselves!

A member had us over for dinner and FHE..she tried to make us American food ahhahaa

Love you all! Hope you all had an amazing conference weekend! I'm looking forward to watching them all this week!
