Cough drops & more Cebuano

What a week!!!! I don't even know where to begin, but I guess I can start with how the Lord truly knows each and every one of us! On Tuesday we had a devotional per usual, and our zone always sings in the choir, so we were asked to move to the second row for the choir, and then they announced that Gary E. Stevenson from the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles was there!!! WHAT?!?! We got to sing a missionary medley for him and for the first time as we were singing called to serve, I realized for the first time that I am the missionary that has been called to serve!!! His testimony was so strong and he testified that we were supposed to be sitting there on that day, at that time, listening to that message, and preparing to serve in a specific place that has been chosen by the Lord. How cool is that!

In our lessons and TRC's this week I realized how lucky I am to be sharing something that means so much to me! This Gospel truly brings peace and happiness, and I feel so lucky  to be here learning how to be a better instrument in the Lord's hands.

 This week we got new Elders in our zone! but kind of sad because we didn't get any new Sisters. But we did start praying with all the Sisters in our zone every night and I feel so close to them. They are all such inspirations and worked so hard or sacrificed so much to get here and they always laugh at my minnie mouse onesie.

 Also our district is all getting sick so now we aren't allowed to touch anyone or anything haha. Also we are all still just wearing our Philippines attire even though the temperatures are dropping so fast, so now we are getting everyone to run between classes!!!



I was reading in Mosiah 26 this week and I love verses 18 and 19: "blessed is this people who are 
willing to bear my name; for in my name shall they be called and they are mine. Thou art my servant... go forth in my name... and gather together my sheep." I love this Gospel I love my Savior I love Cebuano and I love the Philippines!!!! Have the best week and thank you for the prayers!!!! 

Love you all,
Sister Miller
