Okay so prepare for a long one lol. A LOT happened this week. It was crazy!
So first we had zone conference on Tuesday! It was great I loved it. There were lots of great teachings and I love getting to hang out with other missionaries so thats fun. It was in Florida so a 2 hour drive there and a 2 hour drive home so that was fun... kinda... lol I love long drives but lately its been making my body ache. Which is annoying. And my companion doesn't have her driving privileges so I drive everywhere, all the time. But I love it. I'd much rather drive than ride. Anyway I loved that.
On Wednesday we had a temple day! Holy cow one of my favorite days on my mission so far. I absolutely love the temple and getting to go with our recent convert Selah was so amazing. It was so wonderful that we got to go. She was able to be baptised for her mom, and one of the Elders did the baptism for her dad. It was so great. The spirit there was so strong. We also got to take our less active friend Sister Byrd. She is the cutest. I love her. She can be a bit much but while we were in the temple I could feel her ancestors there with her and I could feel their love for her. They love her so much and are so thankful that she is doing their work. Its so wonderful to see. I LOVE THE TEMPLE!! Anyway... that was a 5 hour drive there and back so lots of driving...
Okay so the rest of the week was kind weird, sad, and crazy. So we focused a lot this week on getting our area ready for a new missionary. Because we knew I would be getting a new companion since Sister Jensen leaves this Friday to go to her original assignment! Montevideo, Uruguay! I'm so excited for her it will be such a grand adventure!! She's going to love it! She is nervous but I know she is going to do great! I am so sad to have her leave.. I cried a lot about it this week. I am so nervous to get a new companion. But anyway so we worked on preparing for that this week. We said lots of goodbyes to friends and ward members.
Oh I guess I should mention who my new companion is going to be! *drum roll* Sister Webb! She is going to be joining me here in Saraland and she us going to be an STL (sister training leader)! Basically she is over the sisters for 2 zones. So we will be doing lots of exchanges! I'm super excited for that! It'll be fun! And she only have 2 transfers left before she goes home so I'll probably be with her until then. I'm nervous but excited. I think it'll be good. And she is super experienced so I think I am going to learn a lot!!
Anyway I love yall and how you are having a good week! I'll talk to you next week!
