A grape week!

 







I had my first opportunity to teach in person!! It was a great experience because I was super nervous beforehand, but then I received peace that I was simply going to help my friend come closer to God. I then went into the lesson feeling joyful:)


Service is basically our only opportunity to get out of our apartment. A member said that we could pick grapes in his backyard to give to the people we are teaching. We are not allowed to drop food off at the houses of people we are teaching, but we said yes anyways because we were desperate to get outside. So then we had we had three grocery bags of grapes in our house. They also happened to be the best grapes ever, so I ate three grocery bags of grapes this week and my digestive system is wrecked. Totally worth it.

I finished my first complete transfer out in the field! My companion and I are staying together and I am really happy about that! I am mostly happy that I don't have to move.

Our mission had a zoom devotional with Elder Rasband and the spirit was strong. Also, he is lowkey a savage?? One elder asked, "what are good activities to fill 12pm to 6pm because it usually is a dead time?" And Elder Rasband flamed him. It was funny. 

While answering the questions of a very faithful, devoted, amazing Catholic woman,  I was like "oh my gosh this church better be true if I am going to tell this women that SHE needs this gospel. She has so much faith and she has such a close relationship God, is what I have to offer really necessary?" That's when my best friend the Holy Spirit moved me to tears. The spirit is everything. I know this is Jesus Christ's restored church. 

HAVE A GREAT WEEEEEEEK

Miracles

  We had miracles on Sunday  People that we are teaching went to church like CRAZY. The most amazing instance was when a girl who is at her dad's house in another city 50% of the time went to the ward over there. Big win because her dad doesn't like the church. She is 13 and making these decisions on HER OWN!  On Friday, we drove to a guy's house that told us we could stop by anytime. But when we stopped by he wasn't home. But as we were driving away we saw him in the far off distance in his backyard. SO we yelled his name from the other side of the yard and climbed down the retaining wall and started teaching him  Less than 10 days. I am going to soak this all up. Love you Sister Hall

Hello, Well I was sitting on the plane just relishing in my last moments of no expectations. I thought to myself, "enjoy this while you can, because it is going to be non-stop work, obedience and strict schedules for the next fifteen months." Hahaaaa what a joke. Expectations met reality and it hurt a little. I'm in a trio with two Samoan sisters serving in the Samoan area. We are stationed in West jordan and the area we cover is bigger than my actual mission! Sister Tofaeono is my trainer and my other comp's name is Sister Mariner. Sister T is very understanding, chill and extremely genuine. I love that about her. She is so chill in fact that when i ask for guidance or about the rules, she says, "do what ever you want." And sister mariner is beautiful and mellow. They are both from Samoa and they speak Samoan as their first language. They speak it to each other a lot so i am kinda in my own world A lot of the time. One thing that is weird for me is that the...
