Hey everyone!
I don't have much time to write today! But I am so
thankful for the opportunity to serve a mission! I am truly learning more about
the love of our Heavenly Father más y más cada día. I am thankful for all of
you!
I get my cast off tomorrow!!!!

"My God hath been my support; he hath led me through mine afflictions in the wilderness; and he hath preserved me upon the waters of the great deep."

Abigail didn't say what this was but it looks like a
coyote just walking down the road!
Questions from Mom
Cast off
tomorrow? :D :D :D
Yes, FINALLY!
Do you know if they are going to
transfer you closer to a place that you can do PT? You mentioned Casa Grande
being where you had to go but that is quite a distance to travel. Do you get more miles than the average missionaries since you are so far away from things?
They actually don't think
they're going to transfer me... they said I would just have to make a trip to
Tempe (2 hours away) every week :( We
get more miles than the rest of the mission because we're so far away.. we get
3,000, but we would don't get more to go to Tempe, so we just have to use them
wisely
When do transfers happen?
The transfer started Oct
26th, and it goes for 6 weeks! But training takes 12 weeks, so I'll probably be
here in Gila Bend and Ajo for another 8ish weeks
Don’t tell your companions but
we’d like to put a little something in your box for them for Christmas. Any
ideas? Favorite candy? Favorite anything else?
They both LOVE Reese
Cups! I'll find some more things they like this week!
Is the person that you challenged
to baptism still on track for an upcoming date? :)
She actually has
unofficially dropped us. Each time we come up to her house, she sees us, grabs
her grandson, throws out her cigarette, runs inside, and slams the door. Then
she pretends she isn't home even though she knows we saw her... but it's fine
haha
What the best thing about your
area?
The
stake president lives in Ajo, and he is a transporter for a huge ice cream
business. He has dozens and dozens of ice cream pints in freezers outside his
house that he saves for us! So on Saturdays (our final day in Ajo during the
week), we go grab a bunch of ice cream!
I was thinking about how small your branch is and it
reminded me that you have had an experience with a small branch when we were
called to attend Monticello for 14 months when it was an hour and 45 minutes
one way to get there!
I told my companions about
that, and they were in shock! Hey are both from big parts of Utah, and have
never heard of branches before they came to the field!
What was the best experience of
your week?
I got to go on exchanges
with another Hermana to Casa Grande which is an only Spanish area! I spoke in
Spanish the whole day! It was really scary, but I loved it so much!
Tell us 2 awesome things about
each of your companions, Sister Edmondson and Sister Chavez!
Sister
Edmondson- she is so funny! She has a huge love for the people and just wants
to serve! She hit her year mark about 2 weeks ago!
