July 25,2011


People in Oregon Love my Black Shiny Shoes, I get Compliments on them Everywhere I go. I should have worn them more at home, Maybe people would have liked my feet more.
So this week was nuts. We got word on Monday that we would need to be in Eugene on Wednesday all day for training. Its a 3 hour drive each way, So We would drive up, train and drive home. Anyone Who has ever been on a mission knows you may or may not feel useless by the end of a day like that. We weren't able to talk to anyone along the way about the gospel. But the training was awesome. We were instructed by President Young and the Assistants. It was pretty awesome. The things he taught that day will stay will me this whole mission.
Friday we were able to go to the temple for a Recent Converts Sealing. That is something I have never Witnessed before. We were able to do a session with them before, and it was what I needed. I love the temple. I love the calmness, peace, love, and joy I feel while in the temple. Its amazing. I found out that night that my new companion was going to be Sister Kaufusi. She was staying with us that night cause they came down for the temple, and it was to late to go back. She is awesome, and although she will go home after 6 weeks I am still very excited for her to follow up train me.
Sister losee leaves this week. It has been a crazy week trying to get things ready for her to go and me take over the area. I have been able to feel the peace and comfort knowing the Lord is aware of me and my situation and will guide me in what I need to do.
We are teaching some amazing People. I cannot grasp or describe the love I feel for our investigators. We were able to set baptismal dates with 2 more investigators and it is the best feeling in the world. Knowing that they are taking that step towards making a commitment to make promises to God is amazing.
The mission is Changing a ton! Almost every Companionship has been affected this transfer, it is so amazing to know we have a new president who is inspired to change everything. I am excited to see how all the change helps these area's grow and prosper. I love Central Point and Gold hill. I love the people and I want them to have this gospel bless there lives, and I know these changes will do that.
We had a district meeting today to say goodbye to the district that will not be after wednesday. I just cannot say enough good things. I am so blessed to serve with such amazing Missionaries. I never imagined I would be around Elders and Sisters that had the testimonies of Prophets, and who knew the gospel so strong! They Build and stregnthen my testimony daily. I love that this is a gospel of growing and learning everyday!
I would Love to hear how you all are doing! I miss you all a ton and Think about you all the time. Thank you for all the love and support and Prayers. They help and I can feel it all the way out here in this small tiny town!
Peace and Blessings
