Hey everyone!
So I found out this morning that im being transfered to Keller, TX, family ward...and im so sad! :( I dont want to leave Arliington!!!! But I am excited for a new area, family ward is definitely going to be different thats for sure...but I guess thats where God needs me at this time. I find it comforting that our mission president prays for over 2 weeks for each of us on where we should go so I know it was done by the Spirit. Wish me LUCK!! I'll need it!!

Im just sooo sad!!!! Ahh! I cant handle it! No longer in the YSA ward...ive been there my whole life!! (mission style - its my life!) I just love the people here! This area was super hard..Super Hard!! I can definitely testify of that!! I loveeeee these people!!!! Absolutely love!! They are amazing! I love my Bishop here...he will be missed the most!!! All the members, less actives, and our two investigators. It's amazing how much love you can have for a specific person, or a group of people! Its my home!! But I am looking forward to seeing how different a family ward is. Looking forward to seeing kids!!! :) BTW's I miss my nieces and nephews!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And my new comps name is Sister Tuck, and Sister Fielding said shes cute and hard working soo....we'll see! :)
I am going to miss my companion Sister Fielding!!!! She has got to be the funniest person, happiest person EVER!!! We were called the loudest missionaries in the world cuz we laugh so much haha i cant tell if thats a compliment or not...i'll take it! :) This area is going to thrive though! She's gona do great! :)
Larissa, sorry your gona have to wait for your package a little longer...but dont worry! You'll get it before you come back from your mish ;)
I DONT KNOW HOW IM GOING TO PUT EVERYTHING IN MY SUITCASES!!!!!
ok. So this week was super awesome though. We didnt teach at all any of our investigators hardly less actives, but we did teach a lot of member lessons and they went awesome! We have some good potentials coming up soon in this area :) I'm excited to hear of the progress. The members are astounding! I love seeing the growth in their testimonys. Already I see it! :) Its awesome!
Ok. So theres this member, Waylon, that does this thing called Flyboarding. And i think its the coolest thing ever invented. Go check it out! Youtube it...its awesome!! And that was so random!!
Ok so no big deal, last week there was this creep that was talking to us at the library, ysa age, and we had seem him before but i was trying not to have him see he...although he sat right next to me...and sis f saw him and was like HEY WE KNOW YOU!! I was thinking to myself...oohhh great!!! So previously we prayed for a missionary opportunity at the library so sis f thought this was it..nope. He tried getting us to go to the bar with him. DUDE!! We are MISSIONARIES!! Apparently he has no clue what that means! Awkward...BUT after he left this guy Robert that was sitting next to him was like 'i dont think he knows what missionaries are'. He actualy had friends that went on missions too...and we asked him if he was interested in meeting with us and he said YES!!!! God works in mysterious ways I tell ya....
This week we also went to a Family History Fair to help out and we had our own missionary booth. It was sooo much fun! Our ZL's were with us and man oh man, do old people loveee to talk about their whole familly history with us. No big deal! We also had a guy teach us how to make rag dolls...see pic! Which the elders....bless their hearts...tried so hard to make them look good haha! The people that taught us how to make them werent members and reallly couldnt understand that missionaries are on strict rules and could hardly fathom that we didnt have iphones or any sort of technology...they came to the conclusion that we rode the short bus. What?!! Ohh peopleee :P haha missionary life!
Well I got to go! have a great week And I will too!
