So it has been cold
everywhere I think because we have been freezing here, although it never got
below 48. :) But it was that type of rain that is just a constant drizzle for
days and bites your skin and is SUPER windy. Yes I may or may not have worn my
running pants, then my tights, then running shorts, THEN my skirt and I may or
may not have worn TWO skirts to church yesterday. I will neither confirm nor
deny the previous statements. But it was funny because yesterday Elder Cullen
just looks at me with a face of disgust and says Sister Giles, are you really
wearing two skirts? LAY OFF ME I'M FREEZING! But today is a balmy 60 so I'm
back to just a skirt and shirt. Goodbye Texas Winter, hello summer!
Yesterday we had a great day
at church. The English and Spanish wards switched so that was weird to get use
to but it was great because we had an awesome guy at church yesterday named JJ.
He wore a suit and slippers. It was AWESOME! He is a really cool guy we met on
Saturday and he is super interested. Apparently in priesthood meeting yesterday
he got up and said how much he liked our church and that he knew the BOM is
true and that the church he was going to just made him confused but here he
felt like he got all his answers. SUPER COOL!
Sorry my email is going to
be short today because I emailed David. I'm still figuring it out how to do
both because if I say I am going to handwrite either one of you, we all know
things come up and I never get around to it. But today I will because I know I
won't have time to write everything I want to.
Mom-Thanks for your quotes
and scriptures, I love them and they provide a lot of really great support for
me. Times have been a little rough lately but we’re working on it. I'll write
you more in a letter.
I love you all so much and I
want you to know that I know this church is true. Some many missionaries spend
their days trying to convince people that the church is true and that the Book
of Mormon is true. The truth is, we don't have to do that. The Book of Mormon
testifies of itself. It proves itself every single time. All we have to do is
read it and declare of its truth and let the Spirit testify. What a powerful
tool we have!
