Can't stomach any more pig intestine

Phew, this week was a, well a trip. 

Some highlights 

-tracting literally the nicest street on my mission. One person made a beelinetowards the door instead of away when she saw us in the window, many people thanked us for what we were doing, one sweet Methodist lady went upstairs and had a long conversation with her husband trying to find Us service opportunities, and when we were leaving she said: "we're the Normans by the way", another lady said she would take our card to a local plant nursery to see if they could use help, and another lady told us her life story, asked for a hug, cried, so we sang her a hymn, and while we were singing pulled us into each arm and said she would pray onto her rosary for us. I seriously thought I walked into a dream. None were interested in the gospel, but every last one was an amazing Christian, and it taught me so much about the power of kindness. 

-we had 3 exchanges, 2 back to back

-we picked up a Thai investigator, and introduced her to the idea of receiving answers to prayers

-one exchange was with sister mcgraws new companion, who is finally helping her truly enjoy her mission and said how well she is doing.... Makes a momma proud, 'yknow.

-made a new mission law: be ye not behemoth, but be thou svelte. 

-felt a 6.3 earthquake that lasted a good minute+ while we were in a Thai restaurant. That was funny

-ate dinner with a part member family (the curry's) that I worked with in FBX, that then worked with sister Dall, and one of the daughters had gotten baptized. :) 

-went to go have a lesson with some new move ins to our Ward, that the mom is from Myanmar. We walked in on her and her sister (who looks exactly identical to her) and their families eating Malaysian food. There was a Filipino man, a cute little lady from Indonesia, and the Burmese family. They said: do you want some food? And though I had eaten dinner a,ready and was STUFFED, said: yes? :) and proceeded to stuff myself with food. While what I thought was a mushroom was in my mouth, I had this really fun thought come to my head: "I really am enjoying what I am eating, but I am pretty sure it is not a mushroom.  I think it's a strange part of an animal" so I finished what was on my plate, and after asked what I had eaten. Pig intestines and tripe. And lemme tell you, they were good. 

-it was just an uplifting week. This week we have 2 exchanges, a zone meeting, mission leadership training, and trainer Trainee meeting, so it will be chalk full! I can't wait. :) 

I love the lord. He is so wonderful. 

Love, sister galli
