Sorry this email will be kind of short cuz I'm low on time. But it's just been a week of running around traveling. We had Missionary Leadership Council (MLC) in Bangkok this week (which is about a 12 hour plus bus ride from ChiangMai), and from there we went to our zone's districts in all of Northern Thailand to do some follow-up training and some switch-offs (which meant an additional 15 hours on buses to visit our districts). So I feel like we haven't really been here in ChiangMai at all...kinda lame. But I guess as we all know, meetings are an important and frequent thing that happens in our church because it is how we receive and direct the counsel given to us from our Heavenly Father.
Did switchoff's with the sisters from Lampang!
This week I did a lot of studying on the Priesthood, and how every calling is a priesthood calling since we are all set apart by priesthood power! So in our training from President Senior, we learned a lot about our role and responsibility to take care of our investigators and recent converts, which includes keeping and maintaining our records of them. Because without records, these people cannot progress because the ward and missionaries do not know who they are to be looking after and how they can best assist their needs. It's something our mission has greatly been struggling, so I know that this training was inspiration from the Lord to help us all repent and get back on the right track and do all that we can to help our members and investigators! And as we know...18,19-20 year-olds, are not always the best organized, so it was a very good call to repentance for our missionaries here in Thailand I believe. :)
I hope I have more fun things to report to you guys next week! Sorry this is such a lame email!!
Love and miss you!
Ever upwards,
Sister Lam
Got to hold a porcupine :)
