Week 13

What a week. Hoo boy. And another short day at the library, with more to share about my week than I could in two hours... Let's see how I do with 23 minutes left. 

Tuesday was my last full day with Sister Richardson! And a lot of our appointments fell through, but hey, that's missionary life! Wednesday was transfer meeting. A super sweet member offered to drive us, even though she had never driven to the city before! She did great, although we were a little worried at first. 

Transfer meeting was a lot of fun, to see all the missionaries in one spot. Okay, not quite all the missionaries, but a lot of them. I met my new companion! She's Sister Reed, and she's from Oregon! Forest Grove. Basically Portland. We actually each know the same person from Camas! Which was fun. She's awesome. A little aggressive, which I like. And she's been out for almost 9 months, so she's been teaching me a lot as well. 

We had a great week. Taught some really wonderful lessons, with two people actually accepting the invitation to be baptized. Our next step is to help these people choose a date and get calendars set up! I'm really excited to be here, with Sister Reed. Sorry this email is going to be super short, I don't have like any time.... haha. 

I'm so excited for Christmas! I can't wait to see you! It's actually been a little distracting the last couple of days, thinking about that. No wonder we're only allowed to do it two times a year! Okay, I'm going to send this before I run out of time. 

Spiritual thought: For God so loved the world that He sent His Only Begotten Son. Remember the real meaning of Christmas! Hope everyone has a lovely one.
