Week 50 - One of Those Weeks

Hey hey hey! 

So its been quite an interesting week! Usually people are just so willing and excited to listen to us, but this week was a completely 180 flip haha. Sometimes me and Sister Burt play a game to see who can invite the most people to listen to the gospel message we have in one day and its usually super effective, BUT this week people literally just rolled their eyes at us when we said good morning and some people would just laugh or yell out rude things to us which was a good experience, because obviously everyday can't be smiles and rainbows haha. It really pushed us to work harder and give our all even though it was super super hot and I literally had sweat just streaming down my face into my eyes (thats a pretty picture huh? haha) . But you know what? Even though it was a tougher week we still managed to get 23 new investigators and we felt peace knowing we worked hard and did our best. Sometimes the Lord tries us to see how far our faith in him will go. Plus, we really have been truly blessed the entire month of March and April with so many amazing investigators and now recent converts!! :) 

Hajie came out with us Saturday to our appointments and worked with us and Mhae took us to her grandma's house and her cousins house so that we can share the gospel massage with them as well! I'm just so proud of them and the changes they've both made in their lives, gotta love those two! Plus me and Sister Burt are trying to play matchmaker with them because hey would be so cute together haha. This week we found this new investigator named PJ. He is 18 years old and just moved here from the middle east, but he's Filipino. The thing that's funny about PJ is that he speaks fluent english! In fact he prefers english more than tagalog! I had such a hard time teaching him in english haha I'm just so so used to speaking non stop tagalog... it's weird haha 
But other than that life is good and I actually got to play basketball this morning at the mission home because it's P-Day and we live so close! I totally schooled the AP's it was awesome! (probably just because I'm so much taller than them haha) But I love you all and pray for you all the time and hope you are safe and well! Mahal ko kayo!
Love,

Sister Lowe
