Week 16: The one with Fire & Ice

Friends!!!

Another week has slowly but surely passed - haha!

This week I got my new cutie companion! Her name is Sister Hair and she is my TWIN in every aspect of the word! She arrived Tuesday and we hit the ground running. I have already seen so much progress in this area, I am so excited for these next 5 weeks!

Floranna came to CHURCH!!!!!!!!!

Guys I was so happy when we picked her up yesterday morning and she was ready to go with no doubts or feeling anxious, she just came! When we sat in the sacrament meeting she was looking all around. I asked if she had any questions and she was like "nope, just observing" she smiled at all the little kids that walked by and after we sang "I Stand All Amazed" she read over the lyrics again. It made my heart so so happy! I could definitely tell that God was teaching and touching her heart! We had to leave to to to the Young women's class but she went to relief society with two sisters from our ward. When church was over Floranna said that she really liked it! So so happy and grateful for this ward, they are so missionary minded and totally enveloped Floranna!

We had a lesson with Crystal saturday! It's been a long time since we last had one. We started the first week in Come Follow Me with her and Crystal was socking it all up! We also had Sister Watson come with us and boy oh boy that was the cherry on top! They are two peas in a pod! Sister Watson is already so easy to become friends with but I think Crystal understood a lot more of the lesson because of the things Sister Watson shared.

I love this GOSPEL!!

We have done a lot of tracking and talking to people on the streets this week. It's been so so fun talking to people and also so scary! I have learned that God doesn't like comfort zones because comfort zones don't mix with learning and growing!

So the title of my email kind of goes with pictures...I was wearing a white shirt and Sister Hair was wearing a red shirt and I said "oh my gosh we are partners in crime, fire and ice!" So now we are fire and ice...watch out ;)

I love this area and I couldn't be more excited to be here in Forest Grove!

Well that's pretty much it for this week. Read your scriptures, do come follow me you won't regret it! Trust in God and his servants!

Love you all!
