Last week on P-Day Sister Herrmann and I went to the Zoo :) Haha... there is a really funny tiny zoo here in Sisaket. It is so beautiful. Honestly one of the most stunning places that I've ever been. There are some fun pictures from that that I'll attach.
Right now... we have a lot of different investigators that we're working with. And they are awesome. Really really awesome. A lot of them have specific struggles. Several (it feels like MANY) of them with family members. For me... that is one of the most difficult problems to resolve. But... we're trying to do all we can to focus on the Spirit and do the things that God would have us to do. God is the one who knows how to open the effectual door. It's really cool to see how our teaching is changing as we really really focus on how to teach as the Savior would. I still have a long way to go, but I honestly feel like I'm receiving some great training from my companion :) She is so good and teaches me a lot. I don't know what they need. But God knows. I don't know how to do it. But God knows.
This week. I had the opportunity to
attend a missionary leadership conference in Bangkok. It was a long
cold sleepless bus ride, but it was a really needed and instructive
time. We were taught by Elder Funk and Elder Allen and very much so by
the spirit. We learned a lot about what we can do to serve the Lord
would have us serve. I think my head is still spinning because I've not
yet absorbed and understood all of the things that we were taught. I
feel a tiny bit like the people after listening to the Savior speak.
Christ told them to ..."go ye unto your homes, and ponder
upon the things which I have said, and ask of the Father, in my name,
that ye may understand, and prepare your minds for the morrow..." So
much to absorb. But I know that revelation is real. And that God will
help us to accomplish His purposes, and also that He speaks very
directly to those who seek and have the keys to preside.
This Sunday. We were extremely blessed.
Just a few miracles that happened.
This woman that I have been visiting since I got here. Finally came to church. She is less active and it made me so happy to see her there dressed beautiful, and then to see her daughter playing with other kids after church. A miracle indeed.

Brother Muu came for the first time in a white shirt and tie. He also brought his wife.
He
also brought 8 little kids. The whole neighborhood came to church. :)
I can't tell you what a glorious sight it was to see them sitting
there. Haha... for some reason they sat in their own row. I was a
little nervous watching them from the stand. But they were even good in
the sacrament. Afterward they brought us all of the pictures they've
ever colored in our lessons, as well as ones they drew of the church
that say "Jesus's house" on them. I don't know who told them that...
but they have stolen my heart.
Our 99 year old
investigator made it to church with her daughter. Which earlier this
week was kind of an improbable thing because of some challenges.
There were several other investigators. Aom, and Oom that came as well! Their faith and desires are wonderful.
Oh man. I love this work. I love it so much. I also love these people. The Thai people and specifically these people that I get to know and serve with. They are wonderful.
I love you guys! I hope your week is wonderful.
