NEXT! Transfers are Wednesday.. :( Sister Ison, my other Trainer is now going home. So sad both my trainers are home. I LOVED them and getting to learn from them. I will get a new comp. on Wednesday and will stay in Asheville thank goodness!!
Monday- Productive day. Got things done all day and just cleaned and such. It was good and needed. Dinner was at a members the Davies, he is the Stake Patriarch. They are great. Dinner was very good. Had FHE at the Taylors and it was on Gratitude. Fran came which was awesome and Lisa and Ryan. Good lesson and great day.
Tuesday- Taught Fran :) She loved church and we are very excited about the future with her! She is great. No baptismal date yet.. But hopefully soon. Had lunch at 12 bones with Sis. Gardner. Taught Lisa and Leah about the Restoration to make sure Lisa really understands the Priesthood Authority. Met with Janet and taught the Restoration. She seemed to love it because she hadn't heard of it ever. Set up a return appointment so that is awesome. Met with Ryan :) What a crack up he is hahah. Talked about life on earth and he always has good questions. Met with Nicole and she wasn't there :( So the member took us to get ice cream instead ha.
Wednesday- Rex and Adam's lesson went great, they are do great! Kathy and Kiel are awesome and we had a really good lesson with them! They had some questions about the Priesthood. Sadly Dan wasn't there but hopefully soon. Taught Jeff and he was a little sad and not motivated so it was a pump up lesson. Had a lesson with Javier. POWERFUL! We taught the Restoration and I recited the First vision, very spiritual experience and testimony builder to me of the restored gospel. It was awesome.
Thursday- Thanksgiving :) Let's just say I have never eaten so much in my life. We went to 5 families and had food at 4! Pecan Cheescake, Pecan and Pumpkin pie. Turkey. Rolls. Mashed potatoes. It was very good and filling. I thought I was going to die haha. But it was good being with fun big families and learning and seeing all of there traditions. It was awesome. I am so thankful to have such wonderful people here in Asheville to love me and take care of me.
Friday- Sad but good day! It was our last district meeting and man do I love my district! :( I am so sad things will be changing but excited at the same time. They are all great! We met with a Recent Convert who is doing great and always asks awesome questions, Wiliam. Met for the last time with Lisa because she is moving. I was so sad to say bye but I know the missionaries will be great with her over there. Met with Mary Ellen and she asked tons of questions about Temples and everything that happens in there. Sister Ison said that I answered the questions very simply, and powerfully and did awesome so that was good to hear :) Helped another Recent Convert put up her Christmas tree and had a lesson. Listened to music and it was just so great to be in the Christmas cheer.
Saturday- Rough day. We had the whole day planned. Every lesson cancelled!!! We did like 3 hours of finding. found lots of good potentials. So I learned yet again, that Heavenly Father knows where and when we need to be somewhere and that it will not always go as we planned :)
Sunday- I had to give a short talk/testimony. Sister Ison said I did well and it was a huge change from my first time giving my testimony until now. I felt like it was pretty good so I am happy to see that I am chaning. Also I had hardly anything written down and I always write like the whole talk out so that was cool. All of our appointment cancelled and we went on a road trip.. Not really but we went to see a referral and man it took us out to the boonies! We got lost and it was crazy. We ended the night with Connor and Savannah. My favorites :) I love them! They are awesome haha.
It was a great week. I am noticing as I reflect all the things that change with out me noticing and how grateful I am that I am on a mission teaching others. It is amazing. Thanks for the letters and support as always.
Love you all!!!
