All I want for thanksgiving is to make #thankfulweek a trend. You can take the girl off of social media but you can't take the social media out of the girl. Am I right? Maybe I need to be more focused and consecrated? Probably.
BUT GUYS!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
And there is so much to be thankful for! Namely that we found 3 AWESOME new investigators again this week. I am thankful for Gerardo, Maria, and Omar. They are some really cool children of God. Also, I am thankful that I got to try and "Awful Awful" this week! What is an Awful Awful you might ask? Think frosty bust like 20 more flavors. And it's a RI unique creation. I love that. I had the ChocONutter flavor and Mm Mmm Mm! So good! Also, I am grateful that our member who usually serves us mountains of rice let us serve ourselves last night. It's the little things, my friends. My goal before I leave this area is to let that lady know that missionaries don't want or need that much rice. This is a crusade. This is real.
More grateful moments: Felipe received the gift of the Holy Ghost on Sunday! Woot woot! Also, we set up our Christmas tree this morning! Weeeeeeee! Guys, I just love the holidays. I love decorations and the happy holiday spirit. I am grateful for the Book of Mormon and miracles and the restored gospel. I am grateful for socks and boots, and sewing new buttons on clothing. I'm grateful for tostones (double fried plantains), member-present lessons, and happy missionaries. I am grateful fro good health, the missionary schedule that allows me to get 8 hours of sleep every night, and running in the morning. I am grateful to be serving in the Massachusetts Boston Mission in Providence, RI. I am grateful for my family and friends that write me and make me feel loved and appreciated. I am grateful for all the faith-building experiences I've had this week. I'm grateful for sticky notes and pass along cards. I'm grateful for the knowledge that God is my loving Heavenly Father and that He knows and loves me. I am grateful for my companion, twinkling lights, and cinnamon. I'm grateful for life.
I love you all!
Love,
Hermana Frei
