Week 50

Hello everyone. Another week gone. We are slowly getting back to some normal activities.

We got to have sisters p day last Monday so we got together with all the sisters in our zone to play some games and eat food. It was quite a time. 

We did a lot of fun things this week to keep us sane. We had a picnic at the park and it was so warm and so pretty and I'm just trying to get tan. So yeah. 

Also, the other night we came home and there were fireflies EVERYWHERE. So we went firefly hunting and caught a bunch of them. I'll attach a video of it. 

We played tennis volleyball which is just volleyball over a tennis net. Surprisingly it is a lot harder than normal volleyball. And we also played some fun games this week. Just trying to stay sane over here. 

We haven't been able to teach our friend David very much but we were finally able to get ahold of him this week. He told us he didnt want us to come to his house ro reach him because of the virus. But when we called this last time, he said he lost his Book of Mormon and he said that we could come to his house to give him a new one! So we went over and got to finally meet him and his family! They are the cutest little African family. We hope to start teaching him at his house soon.

This week I've been studying a lot about obedience. And I came across this quote that I loved. "We must give up our freedom voluntarily in order to know the freedom that only Christ can give." The longer I'm on my mission the more I realize how commandments are not restrictive. They are freeing. The more we submit our wills with Heavenly Father's, the happier we become. How blessed we are to have a Father in Heaven that loves us enough to give us commandments. "A God who is asking nothing of us, is making nothing of us."

I hope y'all have a wonderful week!

Also, opinions on elders being able to wear blue shirts and no ties?? I think it's pretty fun.
