Selamat Pagi semuanya!
This week is good. I really
feel great things are going to happen in Jogja and, like usual, I witnessed
some pretty great miracles! I love being a missionary...It's so great :) And I
especially love Indonesia!!! Here's my week:
Senin: For P-day we went with
on of the members to a university campus and toured around. It was really neat
and lots of fun. We got to visit Obama's home when he lived here in Yogya!
Pretty neat. I also met with another bule on the bus and it was funny because I
tried speaking English with her but she didn't really understand me so I tried
Indonesian and she understood! She's from Ceko (Czech Republic).
She's here studying Indonesian for a year. It was really funny that we didn't
understand each other in English but in Indonesian it was just fine!
Selasa: After our weekly
meeting with the ward mission leader we stayed to practice the song we were
singing in Sacrament Meeting and then in walks in two amazing people, Eddy and
Hoa. They just moved from Jakarta and were looking for a church to go to when
they found ours. I guess they've come 2 times before but no one has been at the
church. They are also both deaf. So to communicate we wrote back and forth to
each other. It was humbling. Sister Toegono and I are teaching them and they
are just amazing people. They've already accepted the commitment to be
baptized. This was the big miracle for the week! I'm so excited to get to know
them further.
Rabu: We had a meeting with the
whole zone here in Jogja. It was really great to see the other missionaries
again and hear about how things are going. There are awesome things happening
in Indonesia, especially in Zone Jawa Tenggah! We're all working hard and
seeing wonderful blessings. The Lord is hastening His work and I am so grateful
to be apart of it. Especially here in Indonesia.
Kamis: Just a normal working
day here in Jogja. Nothing huge happened. But I got to work with Sister Toegono
which is always a blessing!
Jumat: Just another normal day. We met with Mama Hawk again (such a sweet name) and her sister Ibu Senang (Ibu Happy). Cool right?! They are great, faithful people. We also met again with an investigator who's husband is recovering from a stroke. It's been really hard on her because he doesn't have his memory. But she's been humbled and I hope ready for this gospel!

Sabtu: Another hard working
day! This is when we gave the commitment to Eddy and Hoa to be baptized. Ah,
such a great day!
Hari Minggu: we had 3
investigators come to church! And one of them I didn't expect to come AND he
brought a friend! SIIP! I may have done a small happy dance when that happened.
It was a good Sunday :)
Well today we want to go to the temple! ...a Buddhist temple
but still cool right? I'll be sure to take pictures. Thank you for your love,
support, prayers, letters, emails, everything!!! I love being a missionary and
serving in Indonesia. I know God lives and loves us all and Christ is our
Redeemer.
Have a great week everyone!
Have a great week everyone!
dengan Kasih,
Sister Sperry :)
