41°C TBM is so fire

สวัสดี​ค่ะ​ทุกๆคน

อาทิตย์​นี้​ This week went very fast. This transfer is just going really fast aaaaaaah! I can finally say I kind of figured out how to get to places here in ปทุมธานี​ or here in our area. We still use taxis a lot but I feel like I'm more familiar now. We usually Taxis mostly because we don't want to be late to our appointments but using public transpo is really great to be able to talk with more people. This week, about three taxi drivers were interested in our message. One of them agreed to meet with us. We're visiting him and his family on Wednesday morning which is really great❣️

Alright, I'll try to remember this week. Last Monday, ซิสเตอร์​โรส, a member here in Rangsit went to Ayutthaya with us. It's like Thailand's Ancient City with cool and super old temples. It was super cool. So many tourists too. Sister Rose is so good at taking our photos and literally wanted us to take photos at every angle haha it was so funny she's 60 but is super duper fun to be with. She drove us there so we had a long time to get to know each other! 😅 Love her! It was less tiring and more fun. ❤️❤️❤️

For Tuesday, we split English class into 3 classes. That meant me and sister Lor had to teach a class by ourselves. It's been a while. So in Rangsit, we have 3 sets of missionaries haha us sisters usually just assist which is more สบาย​ 😅 but then Last week we had to teach. It's way fun. I miss it! We thought it was a great idea to split classes so we can focus more on the needs of the students. There are more students in our English classes now and that's because of the new Facebook advertisement that they put up which is wayyyyyyy helpful because we don't use English cards anymore. People can just  ง่ายๆ​ see the advertisement and get some free vouchers or something to bring to English class and bammm they can เรียน​ or learn free English with us! We actually have a new program which stretches to about 12 weeks. Then, they can get a completion certificate after that. Our students are very diversed too. A lot are from Cambodia, Vietnam, and of course, mostly Thai ppl. Love them!


Also... คลาริน​ passed her Baptismal interview! Yay💕 that means she's getting baptized on the 6th of next month! So excited for her because she's way ready and prepared. แม่​ นุช​ is getting interviewed on Wednesday too. That's exciting! Aaah I love these people and I'm so lucky and blessed for the opportunity to teach and share with them.

Something weird and awesome that's happened this week is that A LOT of people think I'm from the Philippines 🇵🇭 when they first saw me. That is quite rare so I'm just so happy that people are starting to see me for who I really am.... Haha just kidding! It's just really surprising though like it's really hard to tell. Usually, people think I'm from the South like I do or Malay,sometimes Cambodian or Vietnamese. They said it's because my face is round lol. Most ppl think I'm Indian too because of my eyes and nose. So you can't really tell. Honestly, I'm just glad to represent Asia. 😅❤️ Or United Nations  ก็ได้​555

It's really a great week. Yesterday, we had our zone conference. Woke up early and headed to Chaengwatthana โบสถ์. Talked about the miracles that we saw for this month's #MiracleMarch and how to keep seeking for miracles. Definitely saw a lot of miracles here in Rangsit. I remember just starting from no people to teach to ค่อย​ๆ​ having some great referrals and progressing people to teach. Not a lot but they are awesome. ❤️

Before I go, I just want to tell all of you that we indeed have a Father in Heaven. He loves us and He knows us. He wants us to be like Him so we can be happy with our families too. Most people here do not know that - that The Mighty and Supreme Creator of this universe and this earth that we live in is our Heavenly Father. I know for sure it's essential to have a knowledge and testimony of our Father to be able to know ourselves more and to be able to really progress. I love my Savior Jesus Christ and I know that Heavenly Father sent Him to us that we may feel His love for us and that we may be able to come back in His presence.

So... My challenge for you this week is to PRAY. pray to our Heavenly Father to know if He's really there!!! I know that you will receive an answer because I did. I know that the Holy Ghost will testify in our hearts that He is really there. And that is one of the most basic things that we can hold on to to see miracles, to overcome challenges in this world, and to know who we are. Aaaaah! Love you all! And if you have time, you can read this talk too!

Knowing the Godhead


P. S. 41°C this week. 🔥😅❤️

Rangist Referralssss

สวัสดี​ทุกคน​💐

How are y'all? This week has been fast. Let's just say I'm tired every day which is good 😅 We've seen so many miracles here in รังสิต​ Rangsit - found new people to teach and got some awesome referrals! ✋

Fun week of inviting. Last Monday night, we planned to invite at ตลาด​ Jumbo where there's a lot of food stands and people too. We went earlier so then there would be less people and they would actually have some time to talk with us too. My companion asked me " So, how do you do this? How do we invite? Where are we going to start?" The thing is... I don't really know. I always don't know how to start inviting or WHO is prepared to accept the gospel. 😅 BUT something that I learned is to just talk with everyone. So I told her to just start talking with someone and then pointed to this lady who is sitting alone at the ตลาด.​ Turned out that lady was interested and one more thing is that she is actually not alone but is with her daughter and 2 grandkids. We were able to share about prayer with them and prayed with the daughter too. Right there and then. It was an awesome miracle. Who would have thought? We're going to meet them this week again!

Also got some solid referrals this week. Visited one of them last Saturday. Her name is แอฟ. She was first interested in the Bible so we shared about restoration and read verses from the Bible and Book of Mormon. Also downloaded the gospel library on her phone so she can read anytime and anywhere 📱❤️

Last Saturday, we went to this stake Relief Society Activity with our investigator mom. She is really awesome. She wore Thai skirt too and participated. Even though she started working at like 3am, she still went to the activity. I love her. She is doing her best to quit coffee right now. Of all the things from this mission, this one is one of my favorites - to see people try, to see them try to change their lives. And that's because they want to follow God's commandments.

If there's another miracle I can share, that'll be Losing Weight. Hahaha I lost weight! Maybe like 3 kgs which is awesomeeeee anyway... Been running everyday so that's fun.

I just love this week. I feel like it's fast and slow. Love it💕

Have a great week ahead! 💖💖💖

RANGSIT FOR 2

Hello, everyone!

A new transfer again🙏🏻 So blessed because I'm staying in Rangsit. My Companion is leaving and is getting a follow up trainer. She's been really sick here in the city so the province will probably be the best for her health right now. It's been a great Transfer with her. 💖

Last Tuesday, I got a call from President and told me I'm training again! Waaaah! Now I'm companions with sister Lor. She's from Wisconsin! She's Hmong and is super cute!!! We had a great week. She is way good! She speaks and reads very well too. Aaaaah! Love her and I'm so excited for this transfer. We are helping two awesome ladies for baptism this transfer and I'm so excited for that.

I don't really have that much to say right now but if you email or Facebook message me today until 6pm TH time, I can definitely reply! Love y'all. ♥️♥️♥️

Northern Thailand ❤️

สวัสดี​ค่ะ​ everyone!

It has been such a great and productive week! But before anything else, let me just say that we can now call our families every Pday! Videocall too!!!
Isn't that weird??? It is! But also, it is so exciting❤️❤️❤️ I believe that every revelation has its purpose and I have a feeling this would be a blessing to every missionary and our families too. With that being said, I know my parents are thrilled to videocall or voicecall me because um.. I know they miss me so much!!! Their most beautiful daughter 😂😂😂 hahaha *brothers roll their eyes* yeah so that announcement for us just changed the whole game!

This week, we weren't really in our area that much. We left Tuesday night to go to Chiang Mai(north of Thailand) for switch offs. The travel wasn't that bad. 555 Chiang Mai is so beautiful, btw. Truly a tourist area. At one point, I thought I was in another country because there's a ton of tourists. Aaah! I missed biking a lot. We just biked the whole day and visited the STL's investigators. They have a lot! 555 but yeah their area was way inspiring and I can envision Rangsit to be like that too. Haha #werk I was with Sister Haycock for a day and she is just so awesome! I like how she is so ตรง​ or bold. Bold with love. In that way, your investies are not เฉยๆ​ but they are solid and they know our purpose 💪🏼
Also, had the chance to eat the famous Northern food ข้าวซอย. I don't really know how to spell it lol but it was way good. It's still Chilly up north too. Got back Last Thursday and worked ต่อไป.

If there's a miracle this week, that would be... Clarin. She's our best investigator right now. Met her last Monday and taught her the Restoration. She had way awesome questions and it's just super พอดี​ or perfect with the lesson. She is SO prepared. We called her Wednesday night to follow up on Prayer and after a while, she asked us what baptism is *over the phone * and we explained it to her even though we are in a bus. Gave her a date right at that moment too. She is awesome. She also came to church yesterday which is so AWESOMMEEEE. She wanted to stay so we were able to teach her with some members too. ❤️

Our stake president came to visit our ward yesterday and talk with us missionaries too. So... There's another challenge for us. Hahaha we need to have 150 members at church! Haha so we're going to plan about that this week.

Living the work here... All is well! Thanks for your prayers. I don't really have a challenge for this week so just stay awesome, everyone! Love ya!
