Week 45- The one where we get transfer calls....

Friends!!

I hope you all had a wonderful week!

I will get transfers out of the way....I AM STAYING!! I am so happy and grateful to be staying another transfer in this beautiful place of Bend, OR that I've called home for 4 1/2 months. 4 transfers in each area seems to be the trend for me soooo we will see where I go next ;) but for now I am staying here!

I have to say, that on my mission I've learned a lot about my self and what I can improve on but also the strengths. My comp and my wonderful STL's have been helping me see my strengths and it has given me a new sense of love and gratitude for my Father in Heaven. We might not be able to see our strengths all the time and sometimes we don't want to....for some reason ;) but God wants us to so we can see how much we have grown.

We did SO MUCH service this week and I love it!! Lots of member service but then also people we have ran into on the streets have said yes to letting us come over!

Shout out to my zone! Everyone I have the best zone here! ♡ I am the luckiest missionary to be able to stand and work next to these missionaries.

We found a new person and he is a out of the box, hippy kind of guy but hey he is HUMBLE!! Pray that his desires and intents are good ;)

We have been doing hope messages and starting to reactivate people. I have loved teaching people, which is a blessing for me. It makes me know that I love this knowledge and I know its true.

I also got to go on exchanges with my OLDIE BUT GOODIE COMP, SISTER HAIR on Saturday! I love that girl!

*Some things I learned & want to share*

"Artist aren't artists, they are painters. Jesus Christ and God are artist because they created the world." -Nadine (Cascade Crest Ward, Bend)

Trails forge and refine faith.

Simplicity is key!

Everything denotes that their is a God

"Seldom will you receive a complete response all at once. It will come a piece at a time, in packets, so that you will grow in capacity."

-Richard G. Scott

Well my friends, 6 more weeks in this beautiful place and so many more things to learn. I love being a missionary, I love my Father and Mother in Heaven and my Savior Jesus Christ!

Have a wonderful week!

Love you!

Love,
