Ok so I accidentally sent part of my email last night,
totally did not mean to. Sorry. Most of you were asleep anyway.
Ok this week was actually pretty good! Ups and downs, as
usual. Sister wall and are preparing for the next transfer by working as hard
as possible. We managed to see several people we have been trying to contact
for MONTHS. It's the greatest when you are able to teach an investigator who
you haven't seen since your first week in an area, just saying.
We saw a ton of older people this week. There is this 97
year old lady we see occasionally, and her name is Melba. She is a firecracker.
She is so funny and sarcastic, and her hearing is perfect. She can still get up
and walk around all on her own. She has great health. She plans on living until
she is 100. She has the strongest testimony of the gospel I have ever seen in
someone. I love her so much. It seems like in each of my areas there has been a
senior citizen who I have gotten close to. Melba is my hero and I wanna be like
her when I am old.
There is another older sister in the ward we see every
week, Sister Winn. I think she's 95. Anyway, she's going blind so we go over to
her house and read the ensign with her. We also sings hymns to her and I play
the piano for her.
Don't forget the widows in your area. They are amazing
and have the greatest stories to tell. Go take them food and listen to their
lives.
We were able to start teaching Danielle the new member
lessons. She is doing so well. She has started to recognize the Holy Ghost in
her life. She told us that she feels different now, and it's a good different.
She is awesome. I love her.
Sister wall and I have been accidentally matching outfits
almost every day this week. Our companionship unity is through the roof. I'm
gonna miss her so much.
Missionary work is awesome, let me tell you. I love being
able to preach the gospel to everyone. I encourage all of you to find joy in
the spirit of missionary work. Just be nice to people. Do what the savior would
do, and that is love everyone.
I am so glad I am a missionary in the California
Roseville mission.
This is the greatest mission in the world, and I have the
greatest mission president ever. Hands down. We win. Heavenly Father knew I
needed to be here, and I received my own confirmation this week that this is
where I need to be at this point in my life.
Transfers are hard, especially when people you love go
home. But, I know that these missionaries
were in my life for a reason. I'm gonna miss them and I will enjoy this
last week with some of them.
I love you all and I am so grateful for my savior. He is
my redeemer.
He loves me personally, just as he loves each and every
one of you.
Also it's Harry potters birthday today (the 31st).
I'm so grateful for all of you, you raise me up *cue josh

LOVE YALL
