Hey friends:) Another weeks has flown by and I don't have too much to report on again BUT I do have some exciting news! We are gonna wait until the end for it tho...so stay tuned!
Tuesday we spent the day with Sister Morris saying goodbye to friends and members in our ward. It's so cute to see just how much people love us and miss us when we leave.
Wednesday rolls around and we take Sister Morris and Sister Mills to the transfer lot...sad day. Saying goodbye was the worst. It's nice to grow so close to people so fast. I've loved every second with her! Sister Morris taught me so much. I miss her and her funny personality everyday.
So now we are left with just me and my girl Sister Burch. She is so hilarious. Nothing but laughs and good times here in SF. We work hard but this week has been rough. Most of our lessons fell through and no one answered our calls. What's new tho? Normal missionary stuff. It makes you realllllllllllly grateful when someone does answer. That being saiddddddd. We have this friend, Juanito. Super cool guy. He loves Jesus and God. He's been getting taught by the missionaries for the past 5 ish months...we put him on date this week!! November 28 :))) We are so excited for him. I love being able to see people make changes in their life to come closer to our Savior. How special is it to have a front row seat?! Wow. I'm lucky.
Oooooooh here's a cool story. A little while ago, I was driving down Mission Street. As we were driving this car pulled out right in front of us and slammed into the car directly in front of us! We pulled over, obviously. I got out to go ask if everyone was okay. The man that hit the car was pretty shaken up but okay. Then the other car, 3 women got out...and they only speak Spanish. We translated to help them exchange information and help them understand each other. It was so wild. We gave them both our numbers just in case they needed more help. It was so wild that these women happen to only speak Spanish and that we just happen to speak Spanish. Crazy. And if you're wondering, the car that the ladies were driving was completely wrecked. The doors ripped like tin foil. Holes in the door. It was probably totaled.
I've been studying the atonement of Jesus Christ this past week. The coolest subject EVER. D+C 58:42. Read it. It's a good one for sure. What a relief it is to know that we can make so many mistakes and if we repent of them everything is okay! Because Jesus Christ died for us we don't have to carry guilt. And He will never love us less. No matter what we do wrong (and we will make mistakes. We are human after all) He will ALWAYS want us. We are ALWAYS worth it to Him.
I hope you're all staying safe in this world!!
Love,
