Week 29 & 30 : Aruku Valley and wonderful people






Hey All,
I am sorry for not emailing last week. Got caught up. 
So yeah, last week we for a fun Zone Activity to Aruku Valley, its a hill station in Vishakhapatnam and is a beautiful place. I am attaching some pictures from that day :))
Also, this past week we got to meet such amazing people! We met 3 women of such a strong character that have inspired us a lot. Venu, she is a college student here in Vizag but is actually from Orissa. She belongs to a Hindu family but loves to attend church because it gives peace to her. She is super talkative which makes meetings with her all the more fun. Then there's Priyanka(a girl we just met in an auto going to visit a family) and Prem (a friend she got with her to meet with us). They shared with us how they have been praying since they were kids and how that has blessed their life so much. We all shared our testimonies with each other that day and the spirit was so strong in the room that evening. We all could feel it inspiring us and strengthening our testimonies and our faith in the Savior and His Atonement. We also met Parvathi (the girl in the picture). She is a person that's full of love!! We love meeting her! Last week we talked with her about the Book of Mormon and she was really keen on knowing more about it and knowing for herself if the book was true or not. She even read the book on her own and then shared with us how it made her feel good and comforted when she read it. She just makes our weeks so much better every time we meet her. 

Getting transferred has taught me one thing for sure, it does not matter where we are, the lord has prepared people to be reached out to and there's people every where who are ready to know the truth. And i feel really privileged to take that truth of the Gospel to these people. 
I know for a surety that this is the work of the Lord and he has Chosen me to be His servant for these few months. I sure miss you all but i am happy here doing what i do. You are all always in my prayers and i love you all so much!!

Week 28: Getting all my cousins

Image
Hey all, I received my new companion, Sister Chadda. She is also from Delhi and is adorable adorable adorable! she is tiny and very sweet. She makes me smile a lot :)) She has a very strong testimony and it has been strengthening mine since she came.  With her, i got Sister Beesa in my apartment too!!!! it is super crazy how my cousins always end up being around me on the mission. It amazes me to see her on a mission and how good of a missionary she already is. We have been laughing continuously since they came. It's fun. They're both tiny and Sister Kongu and I are not so we feel like big aunties in front of them. hehe  This last week we had an appointment that I will probably never forget. We were teaching the Restoration and Sister Chadda shared her testimony n Hindi, when I looked at sister Kongu to say that I will translate it in English and then she can do it in Telugu, she said she that she got it and she went on and translated the whole thing in Telugu! It

Heyy We reached safely! It turned out to be longer than we expected. The whole journey was really funny haha people were getting lost but we managed to find everyone and gather them all in one place and make I to the hotel. Okay yeah, funny story! so when we got to Bangkok we were supposed to meet up with other missionaries who were gonna join us from Bangalore. We got there, went through security and thought that the most sensible thing would be to wait in the waiting area before boarding. Half an hour passed by, then an hour and there was no sign of these missionaries. We kept scanning the whole area for them but no luck. said prayers but haha nothing seemed to be working. And then right before we boarded we saw the sisters coming down the escalator without the Elders xD then we waited for another 10 minutes for the elders and finally boarded the flight. When we asked them where they'd been they said,"Wee were out looking for you guys" what even!! haha we all had
