¡Hola Y'all!
Bonita Park is beautiful and sunny California still has my heart. There wasn't a ton going on this week, but we had some good moments for sure:)
Since Hermana Romney only has about 2 weeks left on her mission, we made a bucket list to keep things exciting, and we crossed a ton of stuf off of it this week. We talked to over 100 people, met people from 11 different countries, carved pumpkins on Halloween, heart-attacked someone, had a chapel tour, and did a service project! The chapel tour was super sweet and the spirit was so strong there with our sweet friend Eder, but our service project was kind of a joke hahah but it was fun! We just went to a Lutheran church and made a bunch of phone calls asking people for their emails, but like half of them didn't have email bc they didn't know how to work their computers hahah cutie pies.
Halloween was honestly one of my favorite days ever bc first of all, I love Halloween and second of all, little kids in their little costumes makes my heart MELT. And the people here really go all out with their decorations and it reminds me so much of my cute parents and all of their crazy decorations :') But we couldn't be out past 6pm or dress up, so that kind of rained on my Halloween-Spirit, but all truly is well.
Sunday was cute bc Tony officially got confirmed!! And also this CUTE little baby of our friend Diamela that we're teaching got blessed so that was exciting :) Sunday was also my sweet, amazing, beautiful mom's birthday! So everyone please give her big fat hugs for me!!
This week I've been reading a lot in John in the New Testament, and let me just say I love that guy. I loved chapter 15 so much, bc in it Jesus invites us all to abide in Him. I thought that was super interesting bc there's this hymn that I really love called "Abide With Me" and it's kind of like us asking Christ to stay with us all the time and never leave us, but here in the chapter he's asking us to do the same thing with him. He basically says that as we abide in him, we can do all things and so much goodness will come! He also calls us his friends in verse 14 and I love that.
But yeah I love all of you sooo so much and I hope everyone has a great week and remembers that Jesus is your friend! Thank you for everything!!
Con Amor,
Hermana Brayton:)
