WHATS UP!!!
it's been too long!!
happy Wednesday pday haha it's still wack!! my missionary week doesn't make any sense haha but hey we are getting more and more use to it!!
well there's a bit of catch up to play haha it's been 5 ish weeks into this new transfer haha and it's been a WILD one!!
some of y'all may not know yet!! but this transfer I was split from my kid and became an stl!! stl means a zone leader but for the sisters haha and funny story!! I knew I was going to be stl it told me on transfer news BUT NO ONE TOLD ME I WAS STL over two zones!!! WACK!! it was a big surprise!!
ANYWAYS if you have questions about stl haha don't ask me because i don't Even know what they do !! haha it's been an adventure to say the least!! I've gotten to explore alittle outside of Cypress in Tomball with some of the sisters we are over. we have been doing some awesome ministering calls and sister Steadman is making turtles for all the sisters :)) We have had literally a ball getting to know everyone and I love the side of having sisters to chat with and minister to and hype up but exchanges or when you do splits and go with other companions in other areas for 24 hours isn't exactly my fav to sleep in other peoples beds and shower in their showers not my fav but HEY the lord provides and it's been a blast to be with these sisters!!
we are over some amazing hermanas but that means that we had to be in Spanish lessons and even though I have a 34 day streak on duolingo that don't mean NOTHIN but I do my best haha we've had a blast getting to laugh and meet these families!! I have loved chatting with the little kids and playing with them as the hermanas do their thing and teach these amazing people! this last one I literally brought some stickers and played with the 2 littles while they taught haha best place to be!!
the last literally FOREVER has been awesome !! some huge highlights have been getting to give a talk in one of my wards I am over!! that was awesome!! and truly has too many miracles to share but im gonna anyways haha!! while thinking of who to invite I have a family in Towne lake I cannot help but just love on!! they are my favorite people ever!! last minute decision I invited them!! I thought maybe mom and dad and a daughter would come because they are a big family BUT NO!! ALL 13 CAME TO SUPPORT ME!! seriously such an amazing family!! another highlight was getting to do a zone training with Sister Steadman at zone conference!! we both dont know how it went for anyone else but we learned and loved it so thats all that matters!! CRAZY CRAZY story from our zone conference day was as we were planning and preping for this training and praying because this was my first and sister Steadman hates them haha we get a call 2 hours before zone conference is going to start!! and the stls tell us a sister needs to be emergsncy transfered out of college Station for safety and so we need to go pick her up!! zone conference isn't like an hour and done meetings its like a whole day thing !! and so we are like we have a lot to do today but want to help and so we plan on doing our long zone conference meeting and than were going to drive to College Station to help with this et obviously whole up there we chatted to some missionaries sadly not-sister morrell-and did some sight seeing and of course hitting up bucees on the way back haha!! and the most exciting one is definetly getting a refferal from a guy named Jack!! he is AWESOME!!
we gave him a text when we recieved his request and let him know who we were and that we were excited to visit with him!! he responded SO QUICKLY!! and was SO HYPED!! but said he was out of town at lacrosse state and I remember one of our members also being at a lacrosse state this weekend and so I scan the youths Facebook and find out it's the same team and ALL OF A SUDDEN all yhe pieces fall together in my brain why I am where I am and so we explain we know someone he coaches and we text the youth SO PROUD OF HIM!! and now the rest is history!! he got a book of Mormon before we could get him one. already was connecting the book of mormon and Bible and has some amazing questions!!! its literally such a blessing to know him and get to teach him!! he is amazing!!
with the change of pday and the proximity to the temple we get to go to the temple any week we want !! which is AMAZING so I've gotten to be in the house of the lord 3 out of these 5 last weeks!! it's honestly the best feeling ever and has my whole heart and soul. one of these weeks we did a sisters pday and went to the temple and were able to just sit with then and I was seriously in awe at what amazing sisters i was called to minister too!! they all have taught me so much and i can seriously feel the lord's hand in giving me the biggest heart to love them all so deeply and so individually
God is so good!!
God is so good!! I know we've had a million other tiny miracles like this but i promised these emails would be hype so i won't take all your time on it haha but we have had so many awesome times and miracles this transfer and now we are at the close of our mission presidents mission and so it's going to be a CRAZY last transfer with him. I got my last transfer news that I am staying in Cypress another round haha CRAZY!! I love this place I am offically the cypress missionary haha nothing but Cypress for me!! it's about to be the bomb.com Sister Steadman and I are about to go sickomode on our area!! so send up some prayers we are about to make some miracles happen
