This
week has been pretty crazy we had Leadership Conference on Tuesday and
another Training Progress Conference on Friday with All of the new
missionaries that are in training...The rest of the days we were working
on transfers...haha but we were still able to work a little bit more in
our area...
On
Monday we had an amazing 4th of July...All of the Office Elders were
invited to go over to the Mission Home for the whole afternoon...haha We
made hamburgers and hot dogs, made homemade ice cream, and sang
Patriotic Hymns haha it was by far the best 4th of July on the
Mission...It was great...I will attach some pictures...As time passes I
ponder and marvel on how great the United States is and how important it
was and is in the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ...I am so
glad to have been born in such a great country...I hope and pray
everyday that God keeps blessing us as a country so that we may be able
to keep on helping others in the world. We have so much to be grateful
for indeed...
Once
again during this past week we had to make the Transfers in the
Mission...And once again I was reassured that everything that happens in
this Church is by Revelation...Every transfer was made with lots of
prayer and thought...Last transfer as I have commented, I felt strongly
that we should finally send Sister missionaries to a little town outside
of Hermsillo where not one Sister Missionary had been...ever...This
time it was a similar experience...Agua Prieta has been an Elder Only
Zone for about 5 years...for many reasons...however this week we all
felt that we should send the first sister missionaries there again...It
is kind of weird to think that Sister missionaries will now be in Agua
Prieta...but I know that God wants them there at this time. We felt a
reassurance everytime we prayed. When making a transfer, I felt very
strongly the hand of the Lord helping us, giving us ideas and talking
about them...At the end of this week...I know the 98 missionaries we
changed are going to the place where they are needed and with the
companion that can either help them or they can help their companion...
The
hardest transfer decision to make was mine...It is very weird making
your own transfers but in a group effort...everyone chimed in expressing
their thoughts...As everyone expressed their thoughts I felt the Holy
Ghost testifying of where I needed to go...In this moment I reflected to
all of my mission,every transfer, where I was and who was I with and
then I thought of every other assistant there had been and both of the
Mission Presidents I have had, and when they are making the
transfers...talking about me and my needs...and then with the Spirit..
They have all sent me Exactly where I needed to be and who I needed to
be with..I am so grateful for all of my Leaders that have followed the
Spirits Guide as they have made my transfers...I have strived to do the
same...
So
I have been transfered to go to a little town called Imuris, it is
about 30 minutes away from Magdalena, where I was about 10 months
ago...I will be working in the Branch Presidency and will be opening
area there haha...So in my whole mission the only time I will have not
opened area on a transfer is when I got into the offices haha..this is
very unusual...but every time I have had the opportunity to grow...so
this will be my 7th time having this opportunity haha...
I love you all and hope to talk to you soon...My P Day will now change back to Monday as I leave the offices...
Love Elder Child
