Hey
guys,
It
has been an interesting week here in Freddytown. But good. Always good.
Sometimes
it's hard for me to even remember everything that has happened, it's all a blur
ha ha. Oh, 8 months today! That's exciting. Also crazy and a little bit sad.
Canada
Day was so so hot. Like 32 but the humidity is insane. It was good, they had
some sort of celebration downtown, but not as a big as America. There wasn't
even a parade. I guess Canadians are just too humble for that ha ha. An elderly
woman wanted us to go with her to this sketchy Chinese buffet and we watched
her practically choke on her food for like 20 minutes I was nervous I was gonna
have to whip out the Heimlich.
Oh,
also, we celebrated the 4th of July. Canadians are so cute, caring about other
countries besides themselves, aww. Kathy
had all of the missionaries over for a BBQ, here's a picture. We lit sparklers
and had fun.
Sister
Anderson is Canadian, but since I'm her trainer, I've been forcing her to listen
to "God Bless America" all day. She's not impressed, here's a video. <God Bless America.AVI>
So
yesterday we had a lesson with a family of Jehovah's Witnesses from Africa.
lol. The thing is, they didn't tell us they were JWs until we sat down. Also,
English is not their first language. I tried not to Bible bash too much. But I
walked away with an even stronger testimony and also it was pretty funny. The
Church is true, guys. It's literally the kingdom of God established on the
earth and anyone who sincerely desires to know that can know it by reading and
praying about the Book of Mormon. Everything hangs on that book. And it's true!
Also,
there's this convention going on in Fredericton and it's like ComicCon but its
called Animaritime and let's just say we handed out some lemonade to a wide
variety of people that day. It was great.
So
there's all the random bits, but at the end of the day, my mission is truly the
best decision I have ever made and I love it. I work so so hard and I know that
Heavenly Father will bless my efforts one way or another. Thank you for your
prayers, all of us missionaries appreciate them!
Sometimes
it can be challenging to not compare myself to other missions or missionaries,
and Heavenly Father is aware of that. He is helping me as I strive to be more
patient and it's something that we will work on together. That's a huge way we
can use the ultimate gift He has given us, the gift of His Son, Jesus Christ.
As we yolk ourselves to Him, we will become more like Him.
So
here's some pictures and stuff. Hope you like the really awkward one of us in
the car ft. my double chin. Happy Canada Day and 4th of July!!
Love
you!!
Sister Park
