Hey everybody! So this week has been interesting and not
interesting all at the same time! haha I was so excited to be coming
to this area to serve and to work with Sister Dilworth! Well if it
weren't for Sister Dilworth I would not be such a happy camper...This
is a very hard area to work in! But we have a lot of faith that we can
make this area stronger by finding more people to teach! The members
here go on vacation a lot and I feel like I am serving my mission in
Utah or something now. We drive down the streets and Sis Dilworth
points to the houses that have members living there and then other
streets that she has already tracted. Its hard with out referrals from
the ward members. I love it when people understand that our job as
missionaries is to teach the people that they find. I'm not saying that
we aren't going out and doing our part of finding but it will be a lot
better use of time if the ward found the people that are ready for the
Gospel. Ok, I will step off my soap box for a second. haha!

We have some people that we are working with and I am very
excited about them! There is a recent convert that we see quite often
and her husband and son and daughter are not members but will be soon
(fingers crossed)! I love working with their family! They are so ready
for the good change that the gospel brings to peoples lives! We are
also working with another recent convert who has VERY LOW self-esteem!
It hurts me to hear the things she says about herself and we have been
trying to think of ways that we can get her to know that she is good
at things. So we decided to try to get her in to family history. We
took her to the Family History Library in the stake center and she
LOVED it! She was able to find out things about her family that she
had no idea about and she was excited! Hopefully, she will go back
again and keep working on it and as a result know that she is doing
good for her family!
I love working with Sister Dilworth! She is so funny! We laugh
all the time and we both like to work hard! She is excited to have a
companion that hasn't been in this area before and that can work as
hard as she does. Its good to have a fresh perspective and be able to
help her as we both struggle in this area. This area is funny because
for some reason Sisters leave and then get sent back...For example:
Sister Dilworth came back, Sister Cooper, and Sister Lush all left and
returned to the area! I hope that I can knock this area out and not
have to worry about coming back! haha, I know that is terrible to say
but I feel like they could use a good kick in the booty and get some
Elders in here! Everything is speculation and transfers are still 4
weeks away so we shall see...
Something that I am SUPER excited about and gives me hope is
Sisters Training! I can't wait! Its on my birthday and we get to have
a sleep over at President and Sister Greer's house because we live so
far away! I just think about it and I want to jump up and down! haha!
So I love getting mail and I am so happy when I get it and I
am grateful to everyone that write me. I am very sorry to say that I
am terrible at writing back and I will try to get better at it.
Please don't stop writing just because I don't respond. I promise I
will write back (eventually)!

Anyways, I want to close with the simple statement that I know
that my Savior lives and He loves everyone of us more than anyone
could ever comprehend in this part of our journey! I love you all and
I hope time is passing for you as fast as it is passing for me! Have a
wonderful week and keep praying for opportunities to share the Gospel!
