Kindness Matters

This week we were walking and there was an older lady in a wheelchair, sweeping in the street with one arm. My heart about broke and we went to help her. She starts almost yelling at us .. No! No! No!  We just helped her anyways.  She starts telling us all about her life and how much she hates things looking messy, but she’s 92 and can’t walk anymore, so it is hard for her to keep it clean.  We cleaned up the whole front yard. She looks at us with tears in her eyes and says, “Thank you!  Thank you!  My family always leaves me here by myself.  I really want to give you both a Christmas hug.” It was the best!  

This should be one of our goals in 2015!
We should also go about doing service .. every single day!

Frozen in Mexico

So Frozen moment of the week ... On Monday we had other missionaries with us.  Well, Hermana Johnston barely speaks Spanish and her companion doesn’t have the most patience with her.  She was looking pretty alone all day.  I learned we have a Frozen connection!  

That night, I wrote her a letter with a sweet Frozen analogy about Ana trying to understand Elsa and how love and persistency are the keys and it was so great!  I put the letter and the Frozen play pack mom sent in her suitcase and she had no idea.  I was saving that Frozen play pack, but I found someone who really needed it more than me!
