Got the nicest compliment this weekend.
I am fairly close to a majority of my congregation. With those I am NOT as close with I'm working to get to know them better.
I especially endeavor to reach out to the bible studies so that they genuinely feel welcomed.
There is one sister who is actually the only youth in my immediate age range. A lot has been going on in the last year and unfortunately this sister's husband is no longer w her, additionally she has taken back her maiden name.
At the convention this weekend this sister asked if I would like to come when she returns to Honduras and pioneer w/ her =D
Things have a way of changing so quickly but, I don't mind.
I am seriously considering it and I let the sister know that.
Of course she needs to officially return to her country, get situated w/ housing, get reestablished back in her congregation there.
There's time to make a final decision, in that time I'll continue to work on my goals HERE =D
Obviously there is ZERO doubt in my mind about the joy & innumerable blessings, and wonderful experiences that result in this kind of service.
I'm very flattered that she valued me so much ESPECIALLY after my only being part of the congregation for a little more than a year this summer. I'm SO EXCITED!!!
sweetie thatt's amazing!!! what part of honduras does she live in?
Wow, that's awesome! We're actually going to Honduras in (probably)February. My brother and his wife are in Danli. (They were there for a year, then came back to work for a year and just went back again this past week) This time they will be there for about two years pioneering.
When we go, we will visit my sister-in-law's brother (him and his wife are missionaries) in Roatan...then go to Danli for a couple days.
Pretty exciting. You should def do it.
A brother i used to know from Honduras used to be loud so i asked if he was born in a barn and he said yes he was......
I'm not sure which part of Honduras the sister is from, def have to ask.
Jahanna that's so awesome about your family serving there. Honest to goodness I'm seriously considering it =D
It'd be the ULTIMATE way to simplify and then with lower cost of living, be much more focused and much more effective in the use of my time.
