So like it's been another week? Also we had some goood things happen this week. We are still trying to help our friends Jen, Arthur, Lucky, Manaki, Assie and fam, Mark, and Kaudi please keep them in your prayers :) Highlights: - RUNNING!!! We got to go for a jog with a community group.. and I had too much fun :) - Testimony meeting was basically just hypping up the sisters time and it was good to hear people appreciated the things we do and that it was making a positive impact.. - CHRISTMAS ZONE CON aka played some fun games ate some good food and sang - Snack run / car wash (vaccumed and fragranced to smell like cherries...🍒 ) whooop whoop no more hand cleaning - LOST MY WALLET IN AUCKLAND.. crazyyy storrry but when we had to clean out our car somehow it ended up on top and then we drove a roundabout and little did I know that Itwas even gonee.. get a sus text on the morning of zone con and have to call them and race over there. Gave Ursula a signed copy of the BOM and realized it was the best gift we could give her. GOD truly does watch out for us!!!!! - BLUNT but really good MCM this week.. basically straight up was like our branches are struggling with things so we are gonna have a meeting later to chat about it - ATE AT chickenara again.. so so yummy - went to a hoedown 🤠👢 Lowlights: - my poor comp has fleas - our flat lights still don't work and we are now locked out of both chapels..?? I really don't know how that happened truly we already had to go through the window to make some copies adventures ahead - finally realizing just how important retention is with our friends and families because the work we put in can quickly be unravelled without the constant support of members... LOLights: - havvng the freaking longest recieft at New World we are badddd for eachother when it comes to shopping in all the best ways :) - Seeing Santa herd some cows.. - twas a lumberjack at service - Our BP has dementia..? - Sleepover with the sisters in Orewa!! “Our lives are made up of thousands of everyday choices. Over the years these little choices will be bundled together and show clearly what we value...The crucial test of life, I repeat, does not center in the choice between fame and obscurity, nor between wealth and poverty. The greatest decision of life is between good and evil” These 18months just about every choice I'm dedicating to the Lord (besides what's for breakfast hahah) and all these little things will help as I go through the rest of my life and still put God first. Make sure your choices this week show what you VALUE THE MOST!! Scripture.. Jacob 1:8 this is Jacob speaking trying to help people come unto Christ "that all men would believe in Christ, and view his death, and suffer his cross and bear the shame of the world" As a Christian, and as a missionary I've come to quickly learn that when we truly follow Christ there are still going to be hard things that follow but we are still better off for it because we have His help. I truly need His help every second of every hour of every day... The sisters we flatted with shared this song with us you have to watch it because it's actually so so beautiful.. A Beautiful Rendition of I Need Thee Every Hour https://mediasrv.churchofjesuschrist.org/vod/stream/1241706627001/6359255150112.m3u8 https://photos.app.goo.gl/btkDY6hNfKPBTj3Y6 Love you all so so much xx Sister Talbot
