Hey guess what!? I'm not getting transfered! Sister Diehl isn't either, she will have to diehl with me for at least another 6 weeks (did you get my pun? haha)
The residuals of last week left this week to be a hard one as well but things just have to start looking up for us this week :) I just know it!
Conference was so good- I am excited to get the printed version to be able to study it. I kept trying to find people I know in the audience, I felt oddly close to home. I miss home.
This week we aren't going to have a car becasue it's getting fixed, I imagine we will have pleanty of time to study up on everything! before I came into this area the boy scouts trailer hit the side of the car and put a huge gash into the door, they are going to get us a new door. The car we drive is red, I don't like the color very much.
In our zone we are getting another set of sisters so now we will be over 5 companionships, hopefully they aren't crazy :)
As of now (for the next 6 weeks) make sure to send any mail to
Sister Emily Barnett

So the weather is getting a little bit cooler at night here in the big GA. we aren't getting any snow though! I hear there is snow at home... Weird! Do ya'll still have leaves on the trees? Things are just begining to change color here... this last week I took off my shoes and I crunched (leaves don't get quite as crunchy here because it's a little bit more damp) in a few of the leaves, just like mom and I used to do :) it made me happy!
The other day we walked up kennesaw mountain (not a real mountain) with one of our investigators, we talked about the plan of salvation with him.... but then he tried to convince us to become unificationists, I told him I would read his book when I get home becasue we always ask people to read our book. Other religions facinate me, especially their view of the fall of Adam and Eve.
Grandma, thank you for the sweater you sent me! I wore it yesterday :)
I have come to the point in my mission where I feel like two realities are coliding together, Sister Barnett and Emily. It is a really interesting thing that I don't even know how to describe. At least these two people are starting to turn into one person- a very changed person. Change is good.
I really loved Elder Hollands talk that he gave in Conference, he spoke about depression- which hit home for me in a lot of aspects. I believe that one day we will all be perfected and those imbalances within our brains will go away, we will all rejoice- especially for those whom we love who will be made whole. I can't wait for that day.
Well my dear family, I love you all so much! Christmas is coming up in a transfer and a half- I can't wait to talk to ya'll :)
Macie... HAPPY BIRTHDAY this coming week :) I hope you have the best day ever! I will be thinking about you :)
okay, i think that is all I needed to say.
LOVE,
EMILY
