Running

So I've got a hoot and a holler worth of an email for y'all. You will never ever guess what has happened to me this past week. #crazy

I have been released from being a Sister Training Leader. (I've been one for 9 and 1/2 months!) President called and released me and he asked me to say the best and hardest thing about being a Sister Training Leader and well, I've grown so much in this assignment there was so much to tell but to sum it up the best part about being a Sister Training Leader is this: the opportunity to watch and work with all these sisters from a distance but the hardest part is to know what these sisters need and know what will help them the most and then have to watch them figure it out themselves. I've watched it over and over again with each sister I've worked with. It has been an ABSOLUTE privilege to be a leader in this mission and to have these experiences with them.

TRANSFER DOCTRINE: I am heading up to Cross Lanes, West Virginia to be with Sister Coombs! She has been out for 3 months and she is darling! <3

A sister ran and since then I've been in a trip ship since Monday night. We had a sister in the zone RUN AWAY. Literally. So she got sent home....now if that wasnt bad enough, she was training another sister. So Sister Coombs has spent the week with us. But I had the prompting to tell my mission president to send me up there with her. (It's only half an hour away) But I kinda backed down and wasn't going to because I didn't want to mess with the Lord's plans, but then Sister Coombs wanted to call him about some stuff and after they were all done talking, he asked me and my comp what we thought about transfers and stuff and I was thinking "well if this isnt god telling you to tell him what is?" So I told him what I thought about me going up there and how we could get that area up and going again and he said that is a good idea, Ill take it to the lord and see what he says. Then when he called to release me from being a sister training leader, he told us that he had had a really spiritual experience with us and with transfers. So he asked us to ask him tomorrow at transfers if we can talk and he can tell us the story.

So much to say, so little time. When the zone leaders called on Saturday to tell me I was leaving, I started going around to everyone saying goodbye, only to find out that I am still covering this ward in cross lanes. I will be covering the Charleston 1st ward (the ward im currently in), the Charleston 2nd ward and the Teays Valley ward.

I got a plant from one of our investigators. :)

I don't even know what to say in this email except that its been one of the FUNNEST weeks of my whole mission. Being in a trip ship is really fun! <3

We picked up six new investigators this week! I LOVE BEING A MISSIONARY!!!!

We went on exchanges with Teays Valley as a trip ship. I was with Sister Condie and Sister Coombs and it was soooo fun! We saw many miracles and we had a truly amazing spiritual moment. We were definitely blessed this past exchance. And props to Sister Condie for being a true friend and telling me that "if the savior were here teaching today, I feel like he would teach like you" #bestfriend

So...I don't really want to write anymore, but I AM JUST SO HAPPY TO BE A MISSIONARY FOR THE LORD. He sends me where he needs me. That is for sure. :)

I LOVE YOU ALL TO THE MOON AND BACK!
