Hello family and friends!!
Happy Easter to all :) I hope that the Easter Bunny treats you well! This time of year is a great opportunity to remember the life of Jesus Christ and what He has done for us. I defiantly be the person I am today without Him!! I am so grateful for Him in my life and for the opportunity that I have to see Him work in other peoples lives. Missionaries have a front row seat to the greatest work of all!! :)
This week we went and visited a less-active that we have never visited before. I don't know if you have ever heard of the PA ramble but it is a real thing! We were there for like 21/2 hours. She defiantly needed someone to visit with her though. She is such a sweet lady! We tried to share a video with her and she was talking through the whole thing and when it was over she looked at it and said "Oh! I think the video is over." Hahaha it was so funny!!! :) She was so good at smooth transitions. She talked about how when she was a little girl they grew all their food and butchered their own animals on the kitchen table. It was fun! She even came to church on Sunday!! On Saturday we were able to help out at the pinewood derby. It was fun! We were the "judges." :)
I have a feeling that I might be leaving Butler, not positive though.. It is sad to think about leaving this area, I love it so much!! Butler is truly and amazing area, even though we see a lot of crazy things happen! Its so much fun :) We have done a lot of service and I always love being able to do serve. It is a time where I truly forget myself and focus completely on someone else and help them in any way! I always ask people if they need anything and I love when they say that they would love to have our help because that helps me get to know them more and be able to have a better relationship with people! I just love service so much and Butler has defiantly given me the chance to serve others a lot! I love the people here so much too!!! The members are so welcoming and make you feel at home, its the best :) Even though we haven't had a lot of people to teach I truly do see the light of Christ in people. I have learned how important it is to see someone to their full potential, in their temple whites. Butler has opened my eyes to this concept because we see many different people with A LOT of problems but it just amazes me of how much Christ truly loves His flock. Some people I would be scared to talk to our look at but Christ has softened my heart and through lots of prayer I get to see a little glimpse of who people are through Gods eyes. I know that God loves all of us and if we pray for His help He will be there! Butler is just amazing! I love being able to serve with Sister Jex, she is amazing!!! I love her so much :) We have had so much fun together! I am sure going to miss her when she goes home... I never thought that I would get the chance to serve with her, it truly has been a blessing! We have learned and grown so much from each other, at least I have of her. She is a great missionary!!
I love you all and hope that you have a great week :):) To the moon and back!!
Love, Sister Wadsworth
