Akory izy io ra!
Well this week has gone by quicker than i can say Salama! the heat still rages on in madagascar with the weather and the roads turning into rivers...Thats always fun XD
Well here is my week for all of you...
-Tuesday We went and visited sisi and Tolotra. Poor Toltora needed a blessing because the side of his face got hit by a car and his face was very swollen on one side. I saw him at church the other day though and he said that he is doing better. After that we went and taught the kanto couple which are also doing really good. we couldnt see them the other day because they had some family business to attend to.
-Wednesday had us tracting for a few hours, but we had some fun while we were talking to some kids. They had a chamaeleon on the end of a stick and I took a picture of it which is attatched in this email. I twas super fun to see the kids laugh. We really didnt get the chance to teach anyone that day wchich was a bummer.
-Thursday we went and taught Nomery the law of chastity. This was kind of awkward because we had to ask her about her relationship with massoa, her boyfriend. It went well; though. We felt the spirit really strongly and we think that Nomery is getting more serious about baptism.
-Friday we taught the kantoc couple again about the last part of the plan of salvation. They are really devoted to another church but they are starting to get more accustomed to us, which is super good. We also did weekly planning that day.
-Saturday We went and taught an inactive member family about the restoration and how influential it is ino all of our lives. they had a daughter who hasnt heard from the missionaries yet, which was a great opportunity for us to get some teaching in!
And as all of you could expect, sunday was easter for us and because of that we were pretty slammed in our schedule. No sweat, though (ok there was sweat) we got through the day and I had a really great time playing the piano for the ward. Those sacrament meetings are so strong in the spirit!
My spiritual thought today comes from 2 nephi 26:25 which says that we should come and buy milk and honey without money and without price. At a first glance it looks a bit confusing but if you look closely at that scripture, it drectly relates to Isaiah 55:1. I will leave that up to you all to read but I just want to testify to you all that Jesus Christ is the Ultimate gift for us all because without him we are doomed. With him we will one day rise up from the grave and because of him if we are faithful we can live with him again in eternal splendor and felicity.
I love you all and hope that you all get a good week in!
Love from,
