TRANSFERS!!!!

November 18, 2013

WE got Transfer info!!! Im gonna be staying here in Pokey for the last 4 weeks of my mission. We are getting a third companion named sister Riding and she is a visa waiter. So we dont know how long she will be here but it will be good!

This week has been a little rough. But we are working hard and staying busy. We did ALOT of service this week! First we helped the lady who gives us rides every monday clean out her bottom apartment. I had the job of cleaning out the fridge and freezer. It reminded me of all the times as a kid my parents made me do that! lol but i did take some pics of me sitting in the completely clean fridge! lol. then the next day we did service helping clean out and reorganize a garage. IT was so DIRTY!!! lol and had dry deer blood everywhere from hunting season lol. had to take a couple trips to the dump to throw away all the clutter that hey had built up but after it look s REAL GOOD! Then the next day we helped Deb move out of her house to move back up to Rexburg. I was so sad to see her leave but right now thats whats best for her and her kids. It was a last min move and a last min service project but it went well and the elders came and helped. I did something to my arm though and for the last couple days its been getting better. I think i pulled a muscle but its ok now.

So on friday we did a mini Blitz in our area. Another set of sisters and the ZL can and we each took a street for an hour and just knocked doors! it was super fun and we met some really interesting people. lol but we also found 1 new family to teach and 1 new single person to teach! it was great! and i think we are gonna do it again this week. so pray for us and wish us luck!

Thigs for the most part are going great! I ahve coem to more fully understand this week about the power of the atonement. i know I cant fully comprehend it all but littel by little i get more and more of an understanding. I NEED it! you NEEd it! we all NEED it! and need to APPLY it! thats the tricky part though. learning how and remembering to apply it to yourself. Prayer plays a big part of that. I have been trying to really foucus on my prayers this week and its REALLY helped.I would encourage you all to do the same adn see how much more you can FEEL the power of Chirst Atonement in your life. I love you all!

Things here and good but hard. Story of everyones mission life right? I have learned that you cant please everyone! no matter how hard you try! lol but that's ok cuz I can only do my best. As long as I try my hardest and have to regrets I know I will have been successful. Hevenly Father will be happy with my efforts. PMG p10! He is so mindful of me and everything im going through. He has sent me so many little tender mercies that I KNOW He is watching over me right now. Things will continue to be hard but I know I can get through.  I keep working hard and plan on leaving with a BANG!! lol

It was my last halloween on the mission! it was so fun too!  We started off the morning with some zone service that ended with a dance off! lol too funny! and it ended with getting together as a zone and watching movies! we stared it off with a classic... SPACE JAM!!! lol and ended witha new movie at least to me its new Wreck it Ralph. wish was super cute!! lol

so the day after Halloween sis Gale and I were walking around and we walked past this shop that was all CHRISTMAS decorated! What the?! We just had halloween! lol but i must say that I was in  asuper sour mood a few days ago and listened to Christmas music to help cheer me up lol. But you still cant skip holidays!! lol COME ON!

So now that we are in november the month of Thanks sis Gale and i have desicded that whenever we have comp prayer we are only gonna say things we are thankful for! lol its been really interesting to hear me try and remember cuz i get all twisted up! Its fun thorugh to try and find away to ask with out asking! lol like saying "we are grateful for the energy this food will give us" lol but its been good to see all the blessings we have! lol So i would encourage you all to try it!

Well thats about all for me! lol I love you!
