Hey again!
We can't believe it's Monday already. I don't even
know where the week has gone. How are things at home? I really
can't believe we're nearing the end of March. Insane. It's gonna be
a short email again...sorry! I have to create a mormon.org profile and it's Sister Clegg's bday so
we need to go do something fun!
We had another week of finding! wahoo! But we
did find quite a few potentials that seem really good! Here's one
story: We left a dinner appointment and we were going to go chapping in a
different area, but there were some elders here from Ireland (here for a few
days) and they were going to find in our area, so we went with them to show
them where to go. We then decided to do some street contacting nearby
even though it wasn't our original plan. So of we went. We were
walking by a bus stop and a bus stopped (surprise, surprise haha) and this guy
got off. We were already walking past him, but I sort of just turned
around and started talking to him right as he got off the bus. haha He was
probably a little taken aback. Anyway, we got talking to him and he is so
very prepared. His name is Gary. He met with elders about a year
ago and even came to church. This past week he started looking things up
online and reading about the Book of Mormon and stuff. He said he was
kind of blown away that we were standing there talking to him. He's been
through a lot, but he said that's how God found him...through his
struggles. He said he feels really good and happy when he talks with us
and with the elders and when he's at church. (spirit!) He's excited
to start learning again and we're excited to teach him!
Did I ever tell you I love serving in Edinburgh? It's
the coolest city ever. And I LOVE being so close to the mission
home. I never got to see President or anyone before, but now I can see
them all the time! (well sort of) Sister Clegg and Sister Larsen are
doing really well. It's hard, and it always will be, but we're all trying
to be our best. We had a really good district meeting this week that
reminded me why I came on a mission and how I need to work hard until the
end. I'm going to try to make these next 3 months (!!!!!!!!???) the best
of my mission.
Okay I love you! Have a good week! I hope it's
sunny for you. Send some our way, por favor. :)
love,
Sister Rindlisbacher
ps...pray for my piano skills on Tuesday. We're having
an all scotland conference and an Elder in my district is singing the musical
number and guess who gets to play for him? I do. I hardly even play
the piano. haha. Especially now. Ach well. It'll be grand.
