So, it's been super weird being so close to my last
area! But I LOVE Olympia! It's been so fun being back. I have already
seen a few people I knew and I know I'll be seeing a lot more :) It's so
so fun being back.
Last night we had a fireside in Elma and
we got to carpool with the Oly 3rd sisters (my first area) and I got to
see the cottage and all the houses I knocked on and the beauties. Ah. So
fun. The only downfall I've seen so far is the spiders are back.. Not
super looking forward to that.
So anyway! It's also really
weird having 2 wards - we spend almost 6 hours at church on Sundays..
and twice as many people to learn but Heavenly Father is definitely
helping me. The work in both wards is really super slow right now.. We
are going to be doing a ton of finding this transfer but I have complete
faith that God really is preparing people and we are going to find
them! I love my new companion, Sister Tanner. She is kind of quiet but
so sweet and we have fun. Fun fact: she has worn yellow every single day
since she was 4. And literally she wears yellow every single day.
Yellow everything, in fact. Even her tweezers.
We had a
fireside last night and it was SO fun to see missionary friends - I got
to accompany 2 different musical numbers, which was super fun. One of
which I just kind of improv-ed from the hymn book, it was so great. I
really miss being able to play more often, but it just makes me
appreciate even more the times I do get to play! I LOVE firesides - they
are so special. New converts will tell their story and bear their
testimony and the missionaries do musical numbers and all of the
missionaries will sing "called to serve" and the EFY medley song
and "amazing grace" and the spirit is SO strong. I have never felt it so
strong as I do when all of us are singing. It is truly one of the most
amazing things I've ever felt. There is so much love and strength in
those meetings. I love it so much.
As is the usual, I'm on
computers in Oly again and have approzimately 25 seconds to finish this
before I'm logged out so I just will say I LOVE YOU ALL and I hope you
have the best week! This work is true! The spirit is real and God loves
you!!
