A whole new world 🌌

Hello everybody!!

I hope you've all had a great week!! We have! It's been a week full of
meetings and finding. Lots and lots of finding. We had been finding
all week and hadn't seen a lot of success. Lots of people yelling at
us, and telling us we are wasting our time, the normal stuff. We just
couldn't figure out what we were doing wrong, or what we supposed to
learn. Then on Saturday night one of the Elders shared a scripture
with us... 2 Timothy 1:7 "For God hath not given us the spirit of
fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind." We recognised
that we have been called by God. And His spirit is one of power and of
love and of a sound mind. If we have those things we are doing what he
wants us to do. We are doing his work in his way. So we prayed a lot
then went out on Sunday and "hit the streets" (aka tracked for like 4+
hours.) I'll be honest, it was hot, it was long, and we were hungry
(fast Sunday probs) but we were so HAPPY. We were able to find two
people who wanted to learn more and one of them has 10 siblings....
PLUS WE HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO SEE HER WHOLE FAMILY. God is so good.
He loves you and he loves me. He will ALWAYS provide a way... But if
not, we will remain faithful.

Wednesday we had MLC. I LOVE THAT MEETING!! We received a great
training that we were able to give in Zone Training Meeting on how to
use our technology more effectively. We are encouraged to connect with
people on Facebook and to teach people over Skype and Facebook
messenger when they have busy schedules. Basically we are in a whole
new world out here. But we are so excited. Elder Bednar gave a
training to mission presidents that talked about this and how right
now we are doing a lot with technology, but it is only a small
trickle... And we need to turn this trickle into a flood. How
powerful!!

We had a great Zone Training meeting on Friday and were able to teach what we learned on Wednesday!

I love you all so much!!! I love being a missionary and I love serving alongside the Lord. I love serving these cute sisters that we are over and learning about each of them, their passions, their families, and their strengths. They make me want to be better and to do more. I love the Book of Mormon! Every morning when I read it I want to shout for joy because we are SO LUCKY!!! I am so grateful for the sacrament and the chance it gives us to start over.
May we all feel the spirit of power, love, and a sound mind this week and we earnestly and diligently seek the Lord.
I love you!!!
Your favourite missionary,
Sister Wright

Ps eat some ice cream for me this week. 😘🍦
