เฮลโล Hello!
Hey y'all! How goes the going? Good? Great! We had a pretty fun, if not mostly uneventful, week! Just a few of the highlights?
ชั้นเรียนภาษาอังกฤษ (English Class)
English Class!!! We started out our English classes for Thai people in the Seattle area this week! We've only been able to set up and teach one lesson so far, but the response has been so much better than anything we've done up to this point!! We've had a tough time finding Thai people to teach around here, but were finally breaking through at least a little bit. It's the best. And I'll tell you what, I've been typing more in Thai than in English this week haha. It's great practice! But anyways, here's a video we posted for a little teaser:
IM FREE IM FREE... DANG IT
So y'all know how California and the entire west coast are being smitten for their abominations, right? The entire west coast is on fire. And the sky is nothing but smoke. Great. So you know what that means? Quarantine one more time? Correctomundo. We've had to cancel a bunch of service projects and the past few days that probably would've busy have been a little slower. But that's ok, because that's where Elder Stradling's game stash comes in ;)
SPIRITUAL THOUGHT
This week I've been working harder on keeping a good study journal to really get the most out of my personal study. This week one of the questions I asked myself was how I'd better hear the voice of the Lord. I got the impression that I need to work on making having prayers get from just being a habit to being a pattern. In D&C 52:12 it says, "And again, I will give unto you a pattern in all things, that ye may not be deceived; for Satan is abroad in the land, and he goeth forth deceiving the nations" there are so many times where I just dont feel like praying, or especially having meaningful prayers. While praying often is just a habit, that makes it really easy for me to say "just not this time" when it's an inconvenient time or place. But if I can make that a pattern, then it won't take a second thought to say my prayers in the morning, before meals, before and after studies, etc. So that's my goal and my challenge! What should you be doing that's just dangling by the label of a habit that needs to become a pattern? Fix it!
