Transfers!

 This week felt a little long, haha! We had transfers on Thursday! My companion Sis. Peterson went home so me and Sis. Osborne got a new one! Her name is Sister Lee and she is amazing! She's a great missionary! 


Not much happened this week. A lot of our friends we've been working with haven't been progressing :( Eric said he wants to take a break from meeting with us, which was really sad! We found 6 new people who are interested this last week though! 
We got to visit our friend Rose who is in the hospital recovering from her knee replacement surgery. She is doing good. She was way more open to us during that visit! She's still in pain so hopefully we can get her a priesthood blessing soon! Something really cool though; she told us she knows she's going to see her parents again after this life as a fact! And that made me so excited because that was something she doubted before. 

We got Rick to the temple!! That was such a special day! It was really busy since it's a night where all the missionaries in the mission can bring their friends who have been recently baptized to the temple. Rick didn't do baptisms because he didn't want to get wet haha but he got to watch others do baptisms for the dead and he did confirmations! I just love the temple and it was great to bring Rick there too! I saw Sister Flint and Sister Phillips there!! They were in my MTC District! 

Spiritual
->  Church was amazing! Everyone focused on the sermon on the mount and the beattitudes and it was so good! I learned that in some language (latin?) Mor means love and Mon means everlasting so the Book of Mormon is the book of everlasting love! The more I thought about that, I really saw the love of Heavenly Father in the book of Mormon!

Funny Moments
->  I was making meatballs and rice for dinner (my first time cooking on the mission!) I thought it would be pretty easy... it was not. The stove was being weird and heated the sauce way too hot and too fast! So I had to recruit Sis Osborne to help me haha. It was delicious by though!

->  I'm the designated driver this transfer and accidently left the car running for an hour when we were at a members house for dinner. Nobody noticed so we're just going to keep that on the down low haha!🤦‍♀️

->  James reached out to us and told us he is interested in learning more about the gospel! He said "considering we're talking about the gospel do yall want to meet at Chick-fil-A?" Haha!
