She send this picture and said 'The Elders got some hand-me-down bikes and needed to use our flat for safe keeping. Well we weren't in at the time so this is what we found when we came home. That is... my bed! XD...
Mom here: I thought that was a hoot! Is it bad of me as a mom and after laughing the first thing that came to my mind was... she didn't make her bed! I always say make your bed EVERYDAY!.... it helps begin your day great!
Hello all!
We're
headed off to St. Andrews today! :D hopefully we'll get a good amount
of time there. They have the oldest university and abbey over there so
were excited. I sent some pics of it once before but we were only there
for like 20min hopefully this will be more like an hour and then we can
go see the St. Andrews castle. C: (unless you have to pay, then we'll
just go get ice cream at one of the oldest gelato places ever! :D
So this week is our Presidents last e-mail to us as president!! This Saturday we will be meeting our new president in Edinburgh!
Things were good this week. Wednesday was a bit difficult as ALL of our 5
lessons fell through. SO it was an entire day of traveling places
finding people not in then going chapping or fishing, (mom here: chapping is tracking and fishing is street contacting) but it was ok
after that.We
were blessed with 2 new investigator friends this week! We
actually ended up having a lesson with a Seventh day Adventist who tried
to convince us that we were worshipping wrongly and breaking the
commandments because the Sabbath was on Saturday.... *sigh* lets just
say that patience really is a virtue when you're trying to bear your
testimony of the restored gospel and they're completely not paying
attention. haha so yeah he was nice enough, he was just trying to
convert us.
We're teaching a girl Emma, and her mom keeps saying 'oh well I can't
really see her joining the church because she's living with her partner,
she's not married and he doesn't like religion but she can always join
later in life and it's good for her to know what we're talking about.' She has forgotten the point of baptism. yes it
is to become a member, but ultimately it is the saving ordinance that we
need in order to gain salvation!
Sorry if I dodn't get to reply to everyone I don't have much time today but I love you all and have a great week!
Quick thought this week.. So many times in PMG (Preach My Gospel) it says to exercise spiritual power. I'm positive
that the morning work out for missionaries was also established to see
the effects of a physical work out and apply that spiritually. If we are
willing to work hard to maintain our bodies how much harder are we
going to be able to work to maintain and exercise our spiritual bodies?
It's awesome anyway... That's my random thought for the week... Love you all!!! GTG bye! GTG (means Got To Go.. sounds like she was in a hurry to get all of her writing in to head off for some fun!)
Sister McBride
Sorry, I'm not sure of the building she is standing in front of. She often times doesn't get enough time to tell me every time about the pictures. The computers take a bit longer to upload etc and it eats into her time so I know when I don't get a description she is short on time. But a neat building and cute girl none the less. :)
