What a Wonderful Transfer

Can you believe it's been 6 months?! I CAN'T.  This has been the fastest six weeks of my life! We had transfer calls on Saturday and I am sad to say that I will be leaving Jamestown and my dearest Sister Burch :( 

I am headed to Louden Tennessee! To be with Hermana Hall!!! She is actually from the same town that Sheralyn and Mitchell had been living in until this week, so we have such a fun connection already! I am so excited for the great transfer ahead! 

I am so sorry I didn't email last week (LOL no I'm not), we had a beautiful Christmas zone conference and on the way home we stopped by a lady's home who we met a week or so ago, and she let us teach her about the restoration of the Church of Jesus Christ and the Spirit was POWERFUL. I am so grateful to have him as my companion in addition to the marvelous Starks and Burch. 

The ward also had their Christmas party last week and we were so blessed to witness the amazing Bishop Cook attempt a cartwheel. . . . Somewhat successfully, believe it or not. We also had a family of hillbillies move a couch into our apartment the same night. Needless to say, it was quite the day! 

Christmas was amazing!!!! Thank you to everyone who helped it feel so magical! I love my Savior and I thank my Heavenly Father every day for sending Him to save me. (<-if that didn't sound Baptist, I don’t know what does).

Sadly, we had to say goodbye to Sister Starks on Friday. She has completed her mission and headed home to Idaho to be with her family for New Years! 

This past transfer has been fantastic and the next transfer is set up to be fantabulous so life is GOOOOOD. 

I love everything! I am so grateful for my Savior, my companions, my family, my friends, the gospel, my trials, and the Atonement of Jesus Christ!!!
