We had a cool lesson with Sue and Eh Hser. Sue has still been coming to church and everything. Eh Hser still hasn’t been coming to church because of all of her extracurricular stuff. We had a lesson on doing the basic things. Church, Praying, and Reading scriptures - CPR. We read the story in the Bible about the manna from heaven and how our spirits need spiritual food just like our bodies need food. Some things I really like from the Bible story - They have to collect the manna each day, they couldn’t store more than they needed. Just like how we need to feed our spirits every day. We can’t just read a ton of scriptures one day and call it good for a week. Another thing, on Saturdays, they were to gather enough for themselves for that day and Sunday. Everyone is different and just like we all eat different amounts of food, we each have different things going on in our life and need different amounts of spiritual nourishment. Some people only have time to read a few verses of the scriptures each day, and that’s okay. They will be blessed for making that effort. Sue and Eh Hser really liked the lesson and Sue committed to pray more, and Eh Hser committed to come to church. (Sadly neither one of them came to church yesterday haha) but we were able to promise Eh Hser some really cool blessings. We promised that if she will make the effort to come to church and do the things God asks of us, she will have help in school and all of her extracurricular stuff. I know that when we make God our number one priority, he will bless us in every aspect of our life.
Something super cool this week, there was a bunch of super famous Karen singers from Myanmar in Minnesota for the last couple months, and we’ve met them a few times around town. So last Friday, the elders were tracting and tracted into the house where they were staying and they invited us to a party that night because they were leaving the next day. We went that night and it was so fun! They were just all making and eating food and singing songs about God. It was such a cool night. We basically got a private concert! Super sick.
Anyway, gotta go! Love you all!
The ties we made the elders out of Karen material for Christmas! Cheesiest district.
Saw Black and I. Super famous Karen singer. He's so talented! I asked Brooklyn if he's the Karen version of Justin Beiber and she said, "Probably! They're super famous and it was sooooo cool!" haha
District picture because Elder Evans is leaving the area to train a new Karen Elder this week.
Someone else posted this picture on FB of them with one of the famous singers from Burma.
Brooklyn made her famous caramel brownies for Elder Evan's birthday! I'm sure he enjoyed them!
One more picture that was taken at the concert. They all sat in a big circle with lots of food in the middle. Brooklyn sent a video of the concert. It was really fun to see them all eating and enjoying the music together. She said they sang lots of songs about God--missionary appropriate!
