Big Things Happening In H2!

I am only a week into the new transfer and I am already learning that it is going to be a very busy transfer for Sister Ko and I. We do not have enough hours in the day to get everything we need to done.


We were finally able to get in contact with Kawehi! His life has been crazy this past month and he just didn't have time to meet with us but luckily things have slowed down for him and we have been able to meet with him 3 times this week. We also have him back on date for April 29th! In his own words he is ready to get dunked and I am so excited for him!


Yesterday we got a call from one of the members in our ward telling us that her daughter wanted to be baptized! Some background for you, this family adopted 4 kid about 8 years ago. All 4 of them took lessons with the missionaries to get baptized but only 3 of them actually went through with it. Robyn, the girl that wants to be baptized, has still been going to church and seminary every week just wasn't ready to commit. But now she is and she wants to be baptized on April 7th!! So in less then 2 week! Sister Ko and I are kinda stressing out (me more then her) because we have general conference this weekend so we won't be able to meet with the ward council before her baptisim. It's OK thought, everything will work out:)


Each transfer we do something called exchanges where someone in the companionship will leave the area and go into the Sister Training Leaders area. It's normally a 24 hour exchange so you sleep at the other person's house. Basically you are switching companions for a day. I have been out on my mission for over 6 months and have never had to move houses. Until this week. I went on my first exchange that I would be staying somewhere other then Adolpho(the name of the house). It was really weird, I may have woken up a few times wondering where I was.


Highlights from the week
☆got so much free food from members and friends this week:)
☆one of the sisters serving here has this as her flag, I didn't know what county it was so I asked... they thought I was pretty dumb for not knowing, incase you don't know what it is, it is the South Korean flag
☆have 2 more potential area baptisms for next month
☆I have been eating poke this week and it is so good!
☆Sister Amrine and I are going to be ripped by the end of the transfer
☆We had another leak in one of our tires

First Week Of The Last Transfer

Image
This is the first week of my last transfer. I can't believe it! Where did the time go? Sister Drury and I are staying together as Visitors Center Trainers and I could not be more excited. It's going to be a great last 6 weeks. Highs/Lows of the week: ☆We had our first lesson with Kennedy this week and it went so so well. She is such a faithful person. Her boyfriend, who is a member, was telling us that she is always encouraging him to go to church. Kennedy was so cute and took notes throughout the whole lesson so she wouldn't forget anything ☆There was THE BIGGEST SPIDER I have ever seen at the Visitors Center. I am sure it could have eaten me if it was hungry enough. One of the senior Elders was so brave and killed it for us. He is a true life saver ☆We got a shipment in of the Book of Mormon in Navajo. 1st edition! I remember when I was about 9 months into my mission talking to a man who was helping them translate it while he was serving his mission. At that point they we...

Yummiest Taco Soup Ever!

Highs/Lows from the week: ☆I had interviews with President Bassett yesterday and it was great ☆we saw a spider tie up a fly then kill it. Kinda cool but it was inside our house so then we vacuumed them both up. RIP the fly ☆lots of exchanges ☆One of our members girlfriend wants to take the lessons so we are excited to start teaching her ☆everytime we cook we get a million flies in our house. I think there might be a hole in the window screen. ☆we gave a tour to a lady named Elizabeth at the visitors center and at the end of the tour she says "so is there a place I can go to learn more?" Why yes Elizabeth, there is a place you can go to learn more.:) She wasn't interested in staying in contact with us but we gave her a copy of the Book of Mormon and showed her the church's website. She was so interested in learning more! ☆my cousins had me and my companion over for dinner and they made the YUMMIEST taco soup. On Facebook I have been posting a series about different Chr...
