Gooooood morning America. Last pday we visited an Orthodox Cathedral and if you know me, you know that I'm a major fan of giant churches (jk I don't think I've told anyone that but it's true). While I was there I was wishing that America had more churches like that, and I think the Spirit was like "are you kidding me" and hit me with the thought of Temples. We are blessed to have those beautiful houses of the Lord all over the world.
Speaking of temples, we had interviews this week and Sister Dudfield talked to us about reflecting on our temple experiences and so that tied in nicely! It was President Dudfield's birthday that day so shout out to him (also my Dad's birthday the day before so shout out to him as well). I taught Elder Anbesse what the acronym GOAT meant and told him to use it in his interview, and President and I had a nice laugh about it.
He shared with me something I'd love to share with you all. The Savior ministered to the one, and we can to! As we pray to have someone put in our path, and as we follow spiritual promptings, we can be the Lord's hands each and every day!
We found some awesome new people this week. Matay is a LENGTHY Sudanese man who has been coming to the church for WiFi but wanted us to teach him. During our second lesson he asked how he could join the church, so he's lowkey on date for baptism but he didn't come to church so we don't know how serious he actually is. But Solomon and Dula came and they are both very interested. Robel and Estefanos are doing well, but we can't setup a time to teach them or get them to church. We have another man named Kasahun who is doing well too but we have the same problems with him. That is the fat struggle here but there's a lot of promise. Pray for all of them!
Quick funny story: the Hawassa Elders sent us the number for a member visiting up here. So we called him and invited him to come see the church in Megenagna but my goodness the man was crazy. He claimed all religions were true and that they worked together. He read us a verse from the Quran and then told us that masks were God's way of preventing the spread of heresy. He tried to take so many books from the Chapel and asked us to bless his water. That's not all of it, but it's the highlights.
Hope it's been a good week! Have fun and stay positive homies.
እግዚአብሔር ፍቅር ነው።
