Dear Everyone,
I really am not sure what to write at the moment. This week was wonderful in so many small ways. We were able to do so much service for people we didn't even know and that felt so amazing.
This one family invited us to come help them haul a bunch of coal from their basement and then they fed us the best lunch I've had in months. That was a miracle. And then we helped a woman make food for her and her two kids. She's been sick for a really long time and needs help. And hope. Hope that everything is going to be OK in the end.
Serving other people is the most healing thing. There was a video I saw a few years ago called Lift. I think about it a lot because one person in it made this comment : when healing the body we need to focus inward, when healing the soul we must look out. Oh my goodness, honestly I get chills every time I listen to that. I know it's so true.
I've been reading the war chapters in The Book of Mormon these past few days and oh. my. goodness. Why do I love them this time around so much more than I ever have before?
I love in chapter 49 of Alma when Captain Moroni prepared his people so diligently and so well. I've been thinking to myself all this week, "what can I do to be preparing? How can I be a steady and prepared city or vessel so that when the enemy comes I cannot fall?"
I love you all with all the love that I have and I wish you the best week ever.
Love, Sister Call
We had zone conference this week and Sister Gilmour got her hair done (it looks fantastic by the way) and we found matching bucket hats so that's absolutely amazing. Also we painted rocks with our friend Jana which was very beautiful
