(Elder Slade)
To the best friends and family a person could hope for!
Hey everyone! This week was good! We had 3 exchanges this
week. One of them was in a spanish bilingual area. I don't know any Spanish! 😂
But in the morning I memorized my testimony in spanish, just in case I needed
to! So you could basically say I am completely fluent in spanish. We ended up
not having any lessons in spanish, but now I'm prepared for whenever I do. 😉
We got transfer news this morning, and Elder Thomas and I
will be staying together! He's a beast! Such a good missionary!
This week a few of the people we're teaching let us down. We
had about 8-10 people planned and confirmed to go to church, and then only 1
came. I really love these people, and I became really frustrated after that,
because I knew how much it would bless their lives. Then I had a sobering
experience. I had a clear thought that that's how God feels sometimes. He has
such infinite love for us, and we make so many mistakes that it's ridiculous.
Yet he continues to love us and have patience with us! This thougt helped me
gain a better perspective, and I have a desire to just love and be patient with
these people.
Love you all!
