Hello world!
It is Sister Guilott, and yes, I am STILL ALIVE: In spite of a HEATWAVE for the past like... 6 weeks? BUT ALL IS WELL.
This week has been wonderful! I got my new companion... She is
Sister Rose (it is very fitting name for her) and she is from UTAH!!! :D :D
HOORAY! ANOTHER UTAH FRIEND!! She is amazing, I love her so much. She is
new to the mission field, straight from the MTC, but it seems like she has already been
serving for months. I am not training her, it is more like "immersing
her in the work." This week I have to admit was pretty crazy and
stressful. We now cover two of the biggest wards in the area. But... WE
GET A CAR... BLESSINGS. We still bike as much as possible, but we
are going everywhere in our area, because the Lord has blessed us with
SO MUCH WORK!!
So something really cool happened. Sister Rose and I were made
companions Tuesday. The Elders from the other ward gave us their
area book and their car. We looked inside the area book, and it said we
have an appointment with a woman with her two daughters (all
investigators) at 7 p.m. WHAT?!?!?! MIRACLES!! She we went over and she
saw us. She let us in. They were holding Book of Mormons and they said they were reading it. We didn't know what to teach. And this was
Sister Rose's first time... BUT SHE WAS SO INSPIRED and did so well. We talked to them
about how Christ can help them in their lives. And how they can be
comforted in knowing that He knows exactly that they going through. We
read with them from the Book of Mormon of how He can help us. The whole
room was in tears. The spirit was so strong and they invited us to come
back again!! We felt so excited about them! We love them so much, and
they said, "it was God that sent sister missionaries" to our area. I am so grateful for the work we are doing. Even though it is
stressful going everywhere, it is all worth it.
I was reading today in the Book of Mormon in Alma chapter 38 verse
10 that said: "And now, as ye have begun to teach the word even so I
would that ye should continue to teach; and I would that ye would be
diligent and temperate in all things." I am forever going to teach and
be an example to others. You can find so many blessings in our lives as
you follow the example of our Savior Jesus Christ. I love my mission so
much. I love you all! Thanks for reading this blog and supporting me, I know it can be
really random with my ramblings! But I can promise you that you will be blessed by reading
missionary's blogs. ;)
LOVE,
Sister Guilott
