Week 56: Transfers!

Okay, Sister Feinga and I are both staying in Charles Town! We were both very surprised by this news because Sister Feinga has already been here for 3 transfers! That means she will spend at least 6 months in Charles Town. That is a long time to spend in any area so hopefully we will just be so busy that Sister Feinga doesn't even know what day it is! Haha, but in any case, I am excited to be working with her for another transfer! Last night after we found out about transfers, we visited an active family and the husband shared a story about some sisters in his mission and how they got a ton of work done. While he was talking, I felt so strongly that Sister Feinga and I are here to do amazing work together and with the Lord. I am so excited that she is still my companion! I love her so much and we are gonna DO WORK this transfer!!

Side note:  one companionship in our district is leaving the area and an Elder Lewis is coming here. Haha! Also, one of the elders from Woodstock is coming here to Charles Town! That probably means little to nothing to most of you haha but these are the little things that are exciting about transfers especially since I have only ever served around ONE missionary more than once!

Okay, SO THIS WEEK WAS AWESOME! Even with having to take a slow day because I was having migraines every day for about a week, we still had an awesome week. Sadly, we had to drop five of our investigators. Colleen will be ready one day as well as Dustin and Kiara. We can't teach Kenneth and Brady without permission from both of their parents and we are having a hard time getting that, so for the time being we won't be able to teach them.

BUT, things are going well with Nikki! She had strep throat last week so we brought her ice cream on Monday and we have been texting and calling every day so we have a really good relationship with her! She is feeling better now so we are going to see her in the next few days!

We also picked up a new investigator named Regina Hudson. She is older and wants us to call her Mrs. Hudson! She is so cute!! She loves learning about God and she really trusts us. She is so humble. She always talks about how you can learn something from everyone you meet, even if they are generations younger than you. She believes Joseph Smith is a prophet. We are just trying to help her realize what that really means! We know that once she does, she will come to church and be baptized! She is excited to start reading the Book of Mormon! Teaching her is going to be awesome! Also, she is super committed!!

Okay, I have one minute! I wanted to quickly bear my testimony that I know Heavenly Father loves us. I have recently realized that I have struggled for most of my life to feel worthy of His love. It is because of my own pride that I have felt this way. It has been hard and it has been a process, but I am finally learning how to let go of my pride and as I do, I FEEL HIS LOVE. We are His children. Think of it. We are His children.

Well , I'm out of time! These pictures are dedicated to my video game loving brother! Go Minecraft!
