February 13, 2012

This week was great but I cant believe that it was already the last
week of the transfer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Another transfer has come and
gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I dont want my mission to go this
fast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So i will tell you the results of what
this next transfer is going to be like at the end of the
email!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So this past week was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!! On
tuesday we had a mega surprise at our district meeting!!!!!!!! When we
got to the building i had to go to the bathroom really bad because I
drank a lot of water that morning so i was in the bathroom while the
rest of the district waited in the hall!!!!!!!!!!!!! Since i basically
run everywhere as soon as i got out of the bathroom I started running
down the hall and as soon as I got to the end of the hall and turned
the corner President Durrant was standing right there!!!!!!!!!! So i
immediately stopped and said hello to President Durrant and Sister
Durrant, it was a HUGE surprise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They came to join our
district meeting!!!!!!!!!!!!! It went great!!!!!!!!!! Then that night
we went on exchanges!!!!!!!!! I went over the Dallas 6th wards area
and it was GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love their area!!!!!!!!!!! They
have a bunch of high rise buildings and apartment buildings and they
are all so cool and high tech!!!!!!!!!!!! we met with some great
people and we got to go tracting in HUGE apartment buildings which I
LOVE doing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had to wake up early in the
morning though because we were supposed to go to seminary and we ended
up getting there at 6:30 and it ended up being canceled which i was
mad about so we just came home and started our day early which was
great!!!!!!!!! Then on thursday we got to meet with Marcus again (the
man who cant speak) which was so mega cool, he is doing great, we read
an ensign article with him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then we had
dinner with the moreno family which was great also!!!!!!!! They are a
part member family we have been working with and they are such nice
people!!!!!!! We wtached the Testaments with them after dinner which
was the best and the spirit was there so strong!!!!!!!!!! On friday we
spent the day in the little bit of dallas that we have in our area so
we could go and visit some people!!!!!!!!!!! we ended up knocking on
the wrong door in the apartment building and we went inside and taught
this man which was great!!!!!!!!! The man we were going to visit
smokes a lot so my companion told me to leave everything that i dont
want to smell like smoke by the bikes!!!!!!!!!!! so i was debating if
i should leave my jacket out there or not and for some reason there
was something that kept telling me i should!!!!!!!! I ended up leaving
my jacket there and when we got out to our bikes there was a note
there!!!!!!!!!! Theres a member that lives in the apartment building
that has been there for 6 months and doesnt know where church is and
she saw my name tag on my jacket and knew that we were missionaries
and she left a note for us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know the spirit told me
to leave my jacket out there by the bikes!!!!!!!!!!! On saturday we
had a great day and we got to teach some really great people that we
just found!!!!!!!!!!! it was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited to
start teaching one of the families!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And then saturday
night was transfer call night!!!!!!!!! We ended up getting a call from
President Durrant when we were in the middle of dinner at a members
house!!!!!!!!!!! they told us to call him back before we gave the
spiritual thought!!!!!!!!!!! and I found out that Elder Hedberg is
leaving me and im training this transfer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! can
you believe that?!?!?!?!!?!?!?! I am SOOOOOOOOO
nervous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i still feel like im a new missionary and now
im getting a brand new missionary straight from the mtc!!!!!!!!!!!! im
really excited but im also soooooo nervous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So on
sunday elder hedberg went to say goodbye to a lot of families which
was sad!!!!!!!!!!! Im gonna miss him a lot!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so
thankful for missionary work!!!!!!!!!!!!! We truly get to see miracles
everyday!!!!!!!!!!!!! and it is so much fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This next
transfer is going to be great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My new missionary is
going to be the best missionary in the Texas Dallas
Mission!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have a great week
everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
