I got to drive!! It was kind of nerve wracking since I haven't driven
in a good bit. You should be glad to know that I still remember how. I
got to drive because I went on an exchange with a sister who is waiting
for her visa to go to Brazil. Visa waiters aren't allowed to drive. I
forgot how much I enjoy driving...
2. You know how last week I told you I had never witnessed somebody
speak in tongues? Yep, can't say that anymore... That was creepy. We
were saying a prayer then he just started "speaking tongues" in the
middle of the prayer. I'd be okay if it didn't ever happen again...


5. One of my best friends named Amanda Barnhill moved to Conway... :(

We are going to Brookgreen Gardens today. It's a big park with a bunch
of awesome sculptures and animals. A nice man in our branch got us
tickets.
We have been searching for service opportunities a
lot this week. Knocking hasn't really been working out in regards to
finding people. We thought serving others might be a better way. And so
far it has worked! It's super neat to see the peoples' attitude change
when they realize we just want to help them, that we aren't going to
make them be baptized if we pull a weed or two. Then they are nice and
more open to conversation. If you are having any problem getting along
with anybody, or just aren't sure how to show someone you care, serve
them. I know it's cliche. But it really works. Everybody is dealing with
some sort of trial/adversity in their life and sometimes all it takes
is knowing somebody still cares enough to help. It also makes a
difference when they know you aren't expecting anything in return. I
just love helping people!
I love y'all. And I hope ya have a good week! Can't wait for mothers day :)
Love, Sister Broadbent
