Sorry it's been a few
weeks! It's been suuper crazy. So first of all, I got a new companion and
Sister Yanez went home (cries in Spanish 
). My new comps
name is Sister Darling and she's super awesome- she's served down in the valley
near the border and like every single day she tells me that I'm out of here
next transfer. Anyway, we have a lot of fun.

So first day of the
transfer I got the flu...and then this week I dislocated my knee hahaha so I've
been in a brace and crutches and stuff so that's fun. It's starting to feel a
lot better though so that's good. While we haven’t been at the doctor or
calling the mission nurse though, we've been teaching some really cool people
and working a ton with the members. We've taught tons and tons of people the
plan of salvation these past few weeks which is the BEST because it's just all
about how much God loves us and his plan for us.
One super cool miracle
that happened last week was that we were praying for a family of 5 to teach
like all day. And then, at like 7pm we get this call from a number in Ohio and
it’s this person from the mission office and he said he had a referral for
us...and it is a family of 5 Ahhhh!! They're on vacation right now so we haven’t
met them yet but were PUMPED.
I've been reading in
the Book of Mormon, in Mosiah, and I just love these verses about gratitude,
wow.
21 Yea, and in the
valley of Alma they poured out their thanks to God because he had been merciful
unto them, and eased their burdens, and had delivered them out of bondage; for
they were in bondage, and none could deliver them except it were the Lord their
God.
22 And they gave
thanks to God, yea, all their men and all their women and all their children
that could speak lifted their voices in the praises of their God.
Being grateful can
seriously change our entire perspectives on our lives. 10/10 would recommend
trying to be more grateful this year. When we focus on the good, the bad tends
to blur out and seem less important :)
Love y’all, have a
great week!
