Happy
New Year! This week has been a total flashback of the start of my
mission...Tuesday night I got a call saying instead of staying in my
area for a week, I was going to work in a trio in North Minneapolis aka
my very first area!! And one of the sisters serving there is Sister
Heiner, one of my MTC companions! So it's a double flashback! It's been
so fun to be back where I started, but I feel like a completely
different missionary since I actually know what I'm doing now! Well, for
the most part haha. The work is still going strong here- the ghetto is
flourishing with the gospel! Probably because it's too cold to deal
drugs until about May.
I'm
sad to not be in Eau Claire...I miss the 'gators and the ward to death
already! But I'm SO excited to be with Sister Winters next week and meet
all the sisters in the zone. And I'm SUPER excited to start going on
exchanges with them and getting to see how they work in their areas! STL
life! YSA life!
Shout
out to the amazing people back in LA who sent the cutest Christmas
package- minus the mini bottle of vodka (water? #hopefully) and a Cosmo
magazine. I'll just donate them to a less-active or something ;)
Since
this isn't really my area right now, I don't have much missionary work
to talk about since the investigators aren't mine! (They're the Lord's
anyway!). But we taught a restoration lesson in a homeless shelter to
the sister's investigator which was super sketch but actually really
cool! The gospel is for EVERYONE! I'm so thrilled for 2017...I can't
believe in just 4 months my missionary service will come to an end! But
until it does, best believe we'll be finding every soul we're meant to
teach!!!
