Hiyah family and friends!
Well.... What to say about this week....
All of our baptismal dates have fallen through. One needs to move out of her boyfriend's house which she will hopefully be doing this month. Another doesn't "feel up to it." And the other two decided that they didn't want to continue learning; they thought we were Pentecostal... So there's that. And second week in a row that we didn't have anybody at sacrament meeting.
So all in all, a very long week. Everything that could go wrong, did. It was frustrating! But, that's what I get for praying for patience, right? :P hehe.
Thursday was awesome! We had three lessons (the most we've had all week combined), and we biked 14 ish miles. My thighs are still so sore, but it was awesome!
In other news, I'm a part of an Emergency transfer. They're taking my trainee away and I'm staying in this area. Which I have mixed feelings about. Hopefully my new companion will know the area more and teach me how to build it, which is exciting!
Also, my address is 3553 Victoria Manor Ln Apt 210 Lakeland, Fl 33805. So feel free to send me letters and things. I didn't send it out last week because my companion had decided to go home and I wasn't sure what was happening. Now, I'm staying here, for sure.
I read a really cool talk this week called the Fourth Missionary that I think can apply to everyone in every situation. One of my favorite parts is where it talks about how the only thing we can give Heavenly Father, the only thing He doesn't already have, is our will, our hearts and minds. And as a missionary, and I think for anybody, to show our love to Him, we need to give Him that. We need to turn everything over to Him and let Him take control. It was a really amazing talk.
Anyway, there are a lot of exciting things happening here. I talked with my Mission President earlier this week and he told me he wants me to build this area. So, be ready for some miracles in my emails
because it's happening!
I love you all!
