I hope you all had a great week and that the first week of summer will be great!!
This week was good and fast! It's always amazing how fast time goes. Last Monday we were contacting on our way to the church for Family Home Evening and we talked to this one lady and halfway through the conversation she asked if one of us was Brūnere and I was confused for a minute because I didn't know how she knew my name because my hair had been covering my tag but turns out she is Jadviga's daughter!! It was super crazy haha, what a small world!!
Tuesday we had so much rain!! It was fun but made it a little harder to contact because not as many people were out, but new missionaries arrived that day and I got to go with one of the new Lithuanian sisters out contacting and she worked magic! People started talking to us and in the short time we were contacting we found 3 people and people interested in Sports night so it was super awesome!! Also, on Tuesday Sister Loo and I were out and heading back to our apartment when our bus stop came, but I had looked at saw it said the street before ours so I didn't get off thinking I had still had another stop and then I looked around and couldn't find my companion! Turns out that was our stop and I just didn't realize it haha. So I got off at the next one and we met up again!
This week I had been focusing on faith and overcoming doubt and trusting in the Lord and I fasted to find more people to meet with. Well the second I ended my fast with a delicious pastry haha we talked to this one girl and it was one of the best contacts and we set up a meeting for the next day! She ended up not coming, but it was still the coolest experience and testimony builder that God does answer our prayers and we just need to have faith. A lot of times it's not in the way we want or think, but it's always in the way we need to. This week we didn't find as many people, but I learned a lot about faith and how no matter what we need to keep our faith high in the Lord and trust in His timing and will. These are His children and He has a plan for each of them and when they will accept the gospel. And it makes it all worth it knowing everything has its purpose.
Thursday we had a lesson with Anita! It was the best. I love her. After she didn't have any plans so we went to dinner with her and then she came to English class with us!! I could be with her all day. She's so fun and it was great to eat with her and get to know her better. She also came to sports night and showed us her cheerleading moves!
Another day this week, another rainy day haha, we were contacting and not many people were out so we decided to do some drop-bys to our returning members and so we got into Gundega's!! We haven't seen her for a while and it was such a miracle to talk with her and catch up.
Saturday we had another meeting with a returning member and we met at a bakery and halfway through Sister Loo realized she didn't know where her phone was. Turns out she left it on the bus and so after the lesson I called her phone and the bus driver had it and so we met him at one stop and got it back. Another miracle!!
Sunday we got to teach primary! It was so fun! Those kids are funny and sassy and made the lesson super fun. We talked about missionary work and they all want to serve missions! We had one non-member in there and she wants to even serve a mission! It was the best!!
We also started running a minute of stairs for every referral we don't ask for because we want to do better. And we did! This week we only had to run like a total of 7 minutes wahoo!!!
Thank you for the love and support!! Have a great week!
Love,
Masa Brunere
