Transfers 😭🤠🫨

Well this week was crazy and felt so long. It was transfers so on Tuesday we had our last district council. That was so sad because it really was like a family. We were all SO close. We found out that I am staying in Theodore and Sister Hunt got sent far far away. Elder Ostler also left and my friend Sister Ady. And we also had someone going home. So lots of change. I'm trying to embrace the change.  Shawn is doing so so good! She came to church and is so excited to be baptized!! She met lots of members and it was awesome. 



On Monday we went to Top Golf which was so fun. We also had a member meal at the Esqueda's! We love them so much!


On Tuesday I had this fun little friend who I thought had flown away but when we went to a store to use the bathroom I saw him there still hahah so that was funny.


We like to play at parks hahah. Just to stay sane sometimes.


My BESTIESSSS




We had a "funeral" for Elder Espina who is going home. It was so funny



Then... TRANSFER DAY...

This day was horrible hahha. We were SO sad. We had a member meal with the Elders and it was so sad to say bye. But I am so lucky to have people I have grown so close to here. The Elders would sing a song from a play and so I would hear that song all day and it made me so sad haha.


Luckily the next day we got to do some service. So that always makes life better. I really love service sooo much!!

Luckily I got to spend the day with Sister Bentley!! She is so cute and so nice. We both had our trainers leaving us and were waiting for our new comps to come. We hope we can serve together one day!



My new comp is Sister Chidester and she is so sweet. We are gonna have lots of fun!



We got to do some service again!



There was also supposed to be a really big tropical storm passing through Alabama so on Saturday we couldn't go out. We did lots of call lessons and we fasted that day. Luckily the storm wasn't as bad as predicted. We had lots of tornado warnings go off on our radar but we barely got any rain. 


On Sunday us and the Elders were able to meet with someone in our mission presidency named President Salmon. It was so special. He shared things that were exactly what I needed to hear. 

This week was really hard and lots of new things. It's been hard as adjust to the change but I can already see myself growing and becoming a better disciple of Christ. I notice little changes in me and it's so cool. I am so thankful for the friends I am able to make and the people here who are so special. Hard times are always going to come but Jesus Christ had already suffered what we will go through. It's amazing we can turn to him in those times. I love my Savior and I know he loves each of you. Have a blessed week. Love yall!

Well, my bad I didn't write last week. I really didn't have much to report and had no pictures. I also was sick on Monday so I was not feeling it hahah.  This is all I have to report from last week. Had an awesome lunch with a member Sister Champagne. It was so fun and delicious. We also filmed for our social media page and then got Chic-fil-a! Then we also got Zaxby's Chicken Bacon Ranch Loaded Fries. That was spectacular! I had been talking about it my whole mish and so finally having it was wonderful. So thankful for Lucie introducing that one to me. Wow pretty much looks like all we do here is eat. Lastly, we played some fun games on p-day. But that night I started to really feel like I was getting real sick.  So this was me Tuesday at the end of the day. I was perishing. Probably my hardest day so far. We had district council and then we got Panda and Boba. We were rushing all day to get where we needed to and to all our lessons. We visited some members and then Sister...

Okay it's been a while since I've written one of these. My bad. Lots has happened tho! We had zone conference and got a new mission president!! Oh my I love them so much. They are an answer to all of my prayers with the revelation they have for this mission already. They are SO FUN!!! We had a meet and greet with them and it was awesome. They are young and so cool. So that's pretty exciting. Zone conference was good. We said bye to the Chibota's which was sad. We will miss them too!  Lowkey these past weeks have been pretty hard but I've learned to rely on Heavenly Father more than I ever have. I had only Him to pray and talk to and sometimes I would just sit there with Him and I could feel that I was loved. Some days I didn't know how I could get through the long day but I prayed in my head and I know He gives us strength. I also appreciate every one of you who sends prayers to missionaries. It is felt!!  This week we had an all day service on Monday and we hel...

Exchanges!!

Image
This week was pretty good. We had 5 of our Haitian friends come to church!! They drove 40 minutes to get there!! We put 2 people on baptismal date and we had a lot of good lessons. We have been finding a lot and that has been helpful! Our new mission president is changing a lot of things and it is so good! We now can use our apartment gyms and we are all going on a 3 week social media fast. This next week is transfers and I'm so scared haha. I am curious to see what he will do and if he switches things up.  We had exchanges this week and I got to see my best friend Sister Ady!! ❤️👯🏼‍♀️ Yayayayay!! I love her and it brought me so much joy. I am so lucky with the friends God has blessed me with from serving a mission. I've met some lifelong friends. Sister Ady is leaving so it was our last exchange ever. Next time we are together we will be partying it up in good ole Utah. I hadn't laughed as much as I did with her in a whileee.  We had the funniest member meal too. They we...
