Genk Exchanges and Sacrament Meeting Singing

Geachte familie and vrienden,

We're still making progress! It's slow, as always, but we are getting Heerlen and surrounding areas taken care of. We had exchanges this week with Genk. I was with Zr. I. from Westminster, CO who is a swimmer (small world, huh?), Zr. N. was with Zr. B., who was in the MTC at the same time as me. We got a lot done, so it was awesome.

We've got some way exciting appointments set up for this week and the ward has been way helpful and supportive. It was a bit of a slow week in terms of lessons: only one. We haven't seen or heard from another investigator since Sunday, so we're disappointed about that. But we've got some awesome potentials/formers on the schedule for this week, so it'll be way cool.

You read that title right, we (Zr. N, Zr. S., and I) sang in sacrament meeting yesterday. Be Still, My Soul in Dutch. It actually sounded really good -- the Zr. S. is an awesome singer.

Thought for the week: I can testify and promise that there is no impossible mission or calling. Difficult, yes. Of course. Impossible, never. If you do your best, your mission/calling will be fulfilled exactly the way the Lord expects and wants. He will fit the task to your abilities, and He will also fit your abilities to the task. He will hasten your learning, He will heighten your capacity. We might not fulfill it in the way we want or expect, but He knew what He was doing when He called you. He will make everything possible that He has called you to do. This is His work, and He will make sure it gets done. So don't worry! Do your part, and He'll take care of all the rest.

Hope all is well,
Liefde,
Zuster Stevens
