Wow- So much to say. This week has been a
good one...very rainy and chilly, but I don't mind that kind of weather
at all:) IT's quite lovely and fallish, and Fall is my favorite
season:) So life is good!
CHristian's
baptism is this Thursday!!! WAhooooooo. We are really excited. HE is
doing so great and He's already had his baptismal interview and
everything...he is so ready for this and just has a heart of gold. He
works at Denny's and tells us to come by anytime we want for free
food:) So great. I have pics, but I'll send them with my memory card
in a letter this week. WEll hopefully...Hna Kohrman got her camera
stolen and doesn't have any pictures...so she wants a copy of all of
mine, but we are waiting to see what happens with transfers this
Saturday! Well transfers don't happen until next Tuesday, but we find
out on Saturday what is going to happen. LAst week I was feeling VERY
apprehensive about transfers and just having to start all over with a
new companion and it just seemed like soooo much work. And it will be.
But I really feel like Hna K and I are going to stay together here for
her last transfer. Which would be very unusual becuase PResident almost
never keeps greenies (me) with their trainers longer than 2 transfers.
But I am feeling at peace with whatever is going to happen...and that's
all I can ask for! So I'll have that news for you next week:)
We
are on the search for new investigators, because after this week we
have about 3 others...and none of them are progressing. WE did meet a
new family this week- LAura. We are going to see her tomorrow and it
looks like she has a lot of potential, so we are excited for that!!
Wanna
know what I ate this week? Anyone ever had Chapulines? If you have, I
am so very sorryyyyyy....so v rery sorry. Chapulines....or CRICKETS are
not the most savory dish. They are dried and flavored and they eat
them like candy or nuts out of a dish. LEt's just say I do not look
forward to repeating that meal at anytime in my mission! But- I
survived. ...without gagging even...quite the accomlpishment.
Yesterday
in District Meeting, the Zone leaders said they got some numbers from
PResident Cook about missionary applications. They said that normally
after General COnference, they have about 600 new applications for
missionaries. WAnna know how many they got after the big announcement??
7,500!!!!! SEVEN THOUSAND MORE than normal.. Pretty flippin sweet if
you ask me! Dad- I don't know where you got you numbers fromin your
email but. This is what we were told from PResident Cook.
Crazinnessss...but aweome.
The
Hendersons got called as mission Presidents!!!????That is so sweet!!!
Tell them to pray for Carlsbad CA-b/c pres cook is ge tting released
this next year, and that'll be the time that they will start their
calling. That would be so cool! And Sarah could go on her mish at 18.5
now..sweet. When does Malea leave? And dad- Abby cope is
married--she's not going on a mission soon...not sure who you are
thinking of...
