This week was transfers!!! And I am area
training. It is my 3rd transfer which means I am done with being
trained! AAhh!! Scary. This is a good and bad thing for sure. I am so
happy that I made it through my first 2 transfers (Hna Marsh would
always say that they are the hardest transfers.) But now I am a
little.... I mean a lot nervous to area train!!! My new companion is named
Hermana Whiting and she is from Mapleton, Utah. She has been on the
mission for 11 months.. so she's pretty experienced.. haha.. but I am
the one who has lived in my area for the last 2 transfers.. so I am in
charge of teaching about the area and the people and so forth. THIS
WILL BE INTERESTING. I am scared to death but I know that I will be
very good for me. I already miss Hermana Finch SO MUCH. But I am
excited to get to know Hermana Whiting!
This
last week I couldn't help but miss my family considering Gabi turned 18,
Noah graduated high school (WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!), Allie turned 22 and
Jared turned 15!!!! I miss you guys and hope everybody had a great
week!!!! OKAY I'M DONE BEING TRUNKY. maybe. haha jk. I loved seeing all
of the pics you guys sent me from this last week!!! St. George sounds
like it had lots of festivities with my cool fam. Love ya'll.
Spanish.
Spanish is hard, but it's comin. It's crazy to actually understand a
lot of things people say. Especially when I thought I would NEVER learn
it. It's not all there, but it's coming!!!! ¿Solo necesito fe y
paciencia, verdad? Anyway, I am excited for this next transfer to
improve.. I'm excited to work even harder than I have.
Yesterday
was full of visits with members, saying goodbyes, eating a lot of food,
(ps strawberries with condensed milk is incredible) and lots and lots
of pictures. It was fun going around so Hermana Finch could say goodbye
to everyone. I'm glad that I am staying because all of the members are
so incredible and loving!!!
Okay last thing,
I've been really thinking how incredible missions are. I've never loved
praying and reading my scriptures so much. I love learning about this
gospel. I love having opportunities to learn and grow. I am so grateful
for the spirit that can help guide me and comfort me on a daily basis.
I've been needing a lot of help from my Father in Heaven lately and he
has definitely shown how blessed I am.
This week's challenge
is to share with anybody your thoughts on The Book of Mormon. Why it is
important to you and how you're able to know that it is the word of
God. READY. GO. DO IT.
Love you lots!!!!
Thanks for all your prayers and support!! I am beyond grateful for the
love from home. Have an incredible week.
p.s. I just realized that THIS TRANSFER I WILL BE TURNING 20. ew gross can I please be 19 forever?
OKay bye,
Hermana Berry!!!
