Ina got baptized and confirmed this weekend! And her family came to support her! It was really cool to see the whole family taking up the first row.
Love works miracles. So I'm learning how to be a good member by Sister Beck. She just moved her (side note: i often drop the e off the end of english words or write the ë if it doesn't make a sound oops), she and her husband work in the american embassy here. Anyway so she doesn't speak albanian right? We took her to visit one of our returned less active members and her daughter. Her daughter is deaf, mute, and can't see very well. So here's the connection. Sister Beck was there with us and she was able to communicate with signing. She said hey listen we are the same. You and I-we can't understand what they are saying, we can't read with them, and we can't speak with them. Do not feel like you are alone. Simple. But she made a connection. I feel so much love from her and see how she shows it to everyone. She loves being here. She loves the people. And they know it. This is how we have to be. Make people feel wanted. Not alone. (side note: she is from Chile!)
