HAY? Wanna Hear the Gospel?

Hey Everyone!!

This week has been so fun! We got our transfer calls this morning, and we will be staying together here in Sheradin! Neither of us are super surprised about it, we're happy!

1. Sister Gherkins and I have kind of been switching off with being sick - when I got here, she was sick, and then she transferred it to me, and now I'm sick. But it's good! We've been living off of Tylenol and cough drops, but we're happy! 

2. I'm starting to really love the look and feel of life in Wyoming. There is A LOT of hay - it's just everywhere. There's also a lot of corn! A member works on a ranch here in the area and he let us go out into his fields and pick corn - so fun! I can now say that I know the difference between feed corn and sweet corn - it's an important difference haha. Most everyone here smokes, but most everyone here is also really kind. There are a lot of sweet people that say hello and wave to us on the streets or in our car. Not many of them are super interested in the restored gospel, but at least they're nice about it. 

3. My companion and I decided recently that we wanted to make some changes in our lives to become more consecrated as missionaries so that we could receive more of the Lord's power into our lives and our teaching. As we've made really small changes that make us more obedient, I can really testify that we've been blessed and I've certainly seen and felt that the Lord recognizes our efforts and is blessing us for them. We found this week 2 really great potential investigators - Matthew and Jamison. Matthew we found when we went to see a member, the member was exceedingly inebriated, and Matthew was standing outside with him. He's a really sweet guy and we really have hopes that he'll accept the gospel. Jamison is married to a member and has been coming to church recently! We're excited to start teaching her. 

Other than that, not much is new! We've been loving this place and loving the people, and our God has certainly been showing His love for us. We have been so blessed in this area, and we're excited to see what happens with this next transfer. I love you all and I hope you have a great week!
