Twas a good week.
We went on three exchanges, all of which were wonderful. I
learn so much from the sisters that I serve.
We also had zone conference in Virginia Beach this week. The
theme was Doctrine and Covenants 6:36: "Look unto me in every though;
doubt not, fear not." For the first half of the day we received trainings
on how to care for our physical, mental, and emotional health. It was really
great. They taught us about simple meditation techniques and about the
importance of a balanced diet and exercise. Because missionary life is
STRESSFUL!
After lunch President and Sister Baker gave trainings on
replacing fear with faith and talking with everyone. It was so powerful.
We are teaching some great people right now, all from very
different religious backgrounds...
One was raised Muslim, but is now agnostic.
A non-denominational Christian.
A Presbyterian.
A Christian girl raised by atheistic parents. Her teenage
"rebellion" was going to church.
And a few others.
So much good life experience! I am learning a lot.
Have a great week!
Love,
Hermana Bennett
