So glad I survived transfers!
Especially after all the miracles that happen this week, I would have been so
upset if I had gotten transferred. Sister Nelson is my new companion, and I
love her!
So, Thursday was the last day I had
with Sister Romney! We were both bawling! Because I probably won't see her
again until we get off our mission's, I'll most likely be getting my visa this
transfer. :( So sad. But I seriously love Sister Nelson. She's gluten free, so I
decided I would join her. I'm excited. This transfer is going to be awesome! I
can't wait!
I don't even know where to begin!
Church yesterday was SO GOOD. We had 8 investigators show up, and Sacrament
Meeting was so good! We felt the spirit SO strongly! This one little girl with Down syndrome got up to bear her testimony and from the minute I saw her walking
up to the podium, until she sat down I was bawling! She had such a sweet spirit
about her! And her testimony was awesome! Also, Joan and Clarice, finally met
each other. We teach both of them and they live on the same street, but have
never met! When they did at church yesterday they were just hugging each other
and would not stop talking! I was like ahhhh, this is so great! They're both
set for baptism this month and I'm seriously so excited! Then we have two of
our other investigators set for baptism on the 24th of this month come to
church yesterday and we were so happy to see them! Grant and Morgan are their
names, I think I've mentioned them before. They're mom is a less active, and
we've been working with them lately. They're great!
So the last area Sister Nelson was in was Woodbridge, so we drove up
there for a baptism they were having and it was seriously the coolest
experience! The people being baptized were deaf. So the talks, the prayers and
the baptismal ordinance was signed. I was in tears. The spirit was so strong.
It was the coolest thing I've ever witnessed!
I feel like all of these miracles
are happening and all we're doing is being obedient! Obedience brings blessings
but exact obedience brings miracles. I have SUCH a testimony of that
quote! We've been exactly obedient this week and look at all the blessings we've
received! We have four people on date to be baptized and we should have another
tomorrow! All of these people are amazing and I love them so much. I'm so happy
that they've made the wonderful decision to enter into the waters of baptism
and receive the Holy Ghost. I can't tell you how happy it makes me. I KNOW this
gospel brings blessings and reading the Book of Mormon and going to church does
as well. I am so grateful to be on a mission right now. Seriously. Sister
Nelson and I talk about it all the time, we just LOVE it here. What we're doing
right now, spreading the word about this amazing gospel, sharing it with
everyone we come in contact with is so awesome! The Gospel of Jesus
Christ is literally the most important thing they will ever hear. I am so
grateful that I have this wonderful opportunity to serve a mission. I just want
everyone to hear about the gospel and I want everyone to serve a mission. I
love it here so much. The church is true! I love you all!
Tchau,
Sister Hallmark
