I also got to go on exchanges with two special sisters this week, Sister Bobier and Sister Conde. It is such a great blessing to learn so much from them, and get to see their area, meet their special investigators and help them get more excited about the work. We saw the hand of the Lord.
I just want to testify about fasting real quick. We fasted on Saturday
for our investigators and were sad to see that only four came to
church. But then we realized that some of the members had brought their
investigators friends and family members! And then we had an amazing
branch council meeting, where EVERY auxiliary attended. That is a big
deal. And we thought, we have no rice at home, which is like saying "we
have no food " in the PHilippines. If you are out of rice you are in
trouble. But when we came home to break our fast, we saw our rice cooker
was FULL OF RICE, and we thought, where did this manna come from!? And
then we found that our neighbor who is a member just randomly gave us a
bunch of rice. Heavenly Father is so mindful. And fasting is real. If
you have a problem, question, or see someone else who does, Fast, and ye
shall receive. :) I love you all so much and I am sorry this is short. I
love this work and the Lord, and this is not a sacrifice at all to
serve, it is a privilege and honor.
Pagmamahal palagi,
Sister Andelin
