Transfers are again upon us, and tomorrow night I'll be shipping out for somewhere else... at least that's what President said in interviews. He said he'd be sending me up to Montana, so we'll see! We've been waiting for the call all day and it's not come yet soo... I guess we'll find out! So that's exciting!! I'm pretty excited to get up into Montana if it happens! All the missionaries that have served in this mission say that their Montana areas were their favorite areas... let's goo!! We'll get on the transfer van tomorrow night and drive up, then start on Wednesday! Wow! I'll be going home to Temple Square in the middle of this transfer, so it will only be about a 4 week transfer for me before I go back home to Salt Lake!
1. Treva is getting baptized today! Her original date was this weekend, but when we told her about the transfer last week she decided she wanted to push it up so that we could be there. So we're grateful and excited! We didn't want her to move her date on our account, but she said she's ready and excited and wants us there. So we weren't about to argue ;) We're both super excited for Treva to make this covenant with God and be able to start feeling the effects of having the gift of the Holy Ghost. We love her!!!
2. We have been spending a lot of this week getting our area ready for us to leave it! We're both being doubled out, at least that what we think/what President's told us, so we've been visiting a lot of families and setting appointments and writing up notes for the new Sisters that will come in and take over. It's hard saying goodbye! Neither of us realized how much we really love Sheridan and Ranchester until President told us we were leaving! Something I love is that no matter where we go the Gospel of Jesus Christ is the same. The lessons we're taught in primary and the attributes of Christ that we try to develop as members of the Restored Church of Jesus Christ are the same no matter where on this earth we are. Our Heavenly Father is ever mindful of His children, and He knows who we are and where we are in every moment. He knows where we are physically, and He knows where we are spiritually, and He knows exactly where He wants us to be. I have faith that God has a plan for His children, and that His ultimate goal is for our return to our heavenly home.
I hope you all have a great week!!! I'll let anyone who wants to know my new address know next week... since right now, I do not have it. And who knows, maybe next week will come and we'll still be here in Wyoming :)
Love you!
