April 2, 2012 Sunday General Conference weekend :)


My new companion is Sister C! I don't know my new address but I go to the office every week basically so just send mail to the office. 
The area is huge its two area that are put together but we're trying to get enough ppl in both to split it again so its huge. 
We have the smallest apartment I guess in the whole mission and its just Sis. C y yo.
Ya we were able to watch conference! at one point I tried to watch in Spanish and I got so distracted because it would start in English then 
the Spanish would come so my brain was ahhh! So I stopped and went back to English.

Thank you so much for your testimony mom! I actually wanted to ask everyone that this week,
How did you receive your testimony of Joseph Smith and the book of Mormon and the truthfulness of the gospel and the restored church of Christ?
I know as I listen this weekend I just was like wow, can I just take these and have this be the lesson for our investigators? Please! 
I am so grateful for the blessings of learning and inspiration and well there was peace that only God can give as I listened.

Well I have a huge area with my companion.
And Sis C. is great, she and I have a lot of work to do. Its great getting this area working again and getting the members more aware of what 
we are here to do help them and to help them help us. We are so blessed!

Sis C. is the sweetest she reminds me a lot of you and E, like really good at cute-sy stuff.
She likes to cook and she likes too communicate. And just kind of a confirmation that  I am suppose to be here -she knew I was coming? 
She thought about my name even though I didn't know her -she and I met for like 5 seconds once. 
She was just praying for me and such, because she didn't realize her companion was going to get transferred, BUT ya blessings. 
She  has 4 months more then me -so her and I combined, equals one of sisters!  
We just had as jr companion's 4months so we're young together, its pretty intense! 
But she is great -lots of power and we're already working on supporting each other.

Other then that oh ya... my second night here we planned in the bathroom because of tornado winds and being cautious next to the windows. 
It was great, we sweated a lot and well we were safe. The next day we went and cleaned up the glass at ppl's houses and it is just crazy 
how some ppl got affected and others were like huh what happened last night? But ya everyone is safe and good :-D
Then conference was just great!
Love you all!!! I am going to try and get some letters written today :-)
I love you mom!
I love you all family and friends! I am listing you all in my head and I hope you feel the love!
