So yesterday we had a "Labor for the Lord" so our P-day was changed to today!!! I have SOOOO much to tell everyone!!!!
Okay first!!! I am now in the Millcreek YSA Ward!!! I love it so much, I feel like I will have so much success here... It is in the same stake as I was in before, so that is pretty awesome since our area is over the entire stake!!! My companion is also so AMAZING! Her name is Sister Diehl she is from Lindon Utah and she went to BYU as well! Our lives are strangly twisted together. Recently they started a new "Assignment" to help sisters in the mission, they are called sister training leaders.... and well.... Sister Diehl and I are the STL's for this wonderful zone.... we will be in charge of training sisters and going on exchanges with them weekly. It's a lot to swallow but I trust that the Lord has a great plan for me and wants me to learn lots this transfer! It is so strange to be in a YSA ward... I feel a little apostate at times but that's okay :)
We have had some amazing miracles and we are working so hard! Sister Diehl is probably one of the best missionaries I know and I feel it to be such a privledge to be working with her. I know we will be friends for a long time, God is so kind to me!
The other day we were driving down the street and we saw a young women walking down the street, we kept driving past and then we decided that we needed to turn around and go and talk to her... so we did. We parked down a street and got out and started to follow her (you wonder why return missionaries are such good stalkers... Pay good attention) we didn't know how we would get the opportunity to talk to her but we just kept walking behind her.... We got to cross walk and we were able to start a conversation. We gave her a book of mormon and set up a time to meet her again, we will be seeing her tonight and I am so so so excited to teach her. Missionary work makes me so happy. I can be having a horrible day but the second we are able to go out and talk to people about Jesus Christ everything changes. This gospel brings me so much joy and I want everyone to recieve it!
It is so strange to me that I am not going back to school right now... This is the first time since I was 5 that I will not be going to school in the fall. I miss home but I am so happy to be here. in fact I don't know if I will be able to come home :) (just kidding I will come home when my time is over)
I know this church is true, so true! There is no doubt in my mind. I hope ya'll can feel the love that God has for each of us! Keep being amazing!
Well my dearly beloved, I wish I had more time to converse with ya'll but president only gives us an hour.... :(
I love you!!! So much!
