So these past few days have been busy, but extremely fun. On day 1, I went out with Erin, and in the very first house there were 2 girls who were about my age. They kept smiling at me and laughing and talking to each other. It was hilarious. They invited me to go sit next to them on the mat, and I did. They felt my hair, and I laughed and they laughed. It was a great time. Then, on day 2 of sharing the gospel, everyone finished early, so Taylor, Evan, Roman and me played tons of games with the kids. They taught us their games and we taught them some of ours. I loved hanging out with the little girls because you don’t even need to speak their language, because a smile is their language. There was one little girl in particular that liked me the best. I don’t remember her name, but she was probably about 6 or 7. She was the one who kept teaching me games and urging me to play with them. She was so cute. Then, on day 3, I went out with Marie and met another little girl. She was in 4th grade. While we were talking, she kept winking at me. I thought it was so funny, so I winked back. She made me laugh and I made her laugh. I liked her too. Then, on day 4, there was a girl who was in 9th grade too, and she winked at me while we were at her house too. I wonder what it means. My favorite part of my trip so far is definitely all of the young girls. They’re the best.

A heartwarming blessed description of how a smile speaks a thousand words when spreading the gospel to others, especially showing kindness of Jesus.
