Friends & Family,
4 MONTHS SINCE MY JOURNEY BEGAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
WELL.. I am staying in Elizabeth city for another transfer :)
Well I just wrote out my whole letter then pushed a button and erased it.. I'm super annoyed!!!! haha but I'll try to write the same thing! But this week was crazy! It snowed about 7 inches! I MADE A REALLY CUTE SNOWMAN... :) haha and the neighbors helped me! So that was fun! But we were not allowed to drive for 2 days because of the snow... so I didn't really like that part. But we didn't really do much because ALL our appointments cancelled.. or everyone is sick. So this week we were stuck inside for most of one day then walking around in the snow.. and I guess my boots aren't good enough because I had water get in them and it felt like I was at Disneyland and I went on a water ride then had to walk around with water in my shoe. It was bad! But literally everything shuts down here! So everyone was running around going to the store to stock up on food.. I swear everyone was acting like the world was going to end! SCARY.. haha

I am
determined that I am officially allergic to milk, cheese, bananas.
That's all so far! I have been so sick this week. I threw up twice
because I ate cheese! So it is super interesting and frustrating cause I
have to eat it when I go to people's houses. So PRAY for me. haha! :)
But
this week was really slow! The other week some member gave us this
friend of hers to go visit so we did and we couldn't find the house. It
started to snow so we were going to go home but I felt very prompted to
go to this house. So we did and they invited us in and we taught them
the Plan Of Salvation. The lesson went SOO good! and they all seem so
great! But they are English so we have to give them to the Elders! So
that's kind of annoying but at least they are doing so well and
progressing! 2 of them have a baptismal date! WHICH IS AMAZING! but it
is so sad to give them to the Elders!! but I know they will do an
amazing job teaching them! That was such a cool experience!
Every night we would get home around 6:30 cause of the snow.. and we Sisters can't walk at night in our neighborhood. So we went to bed at like 8 for 3 nights in a row. which was really much needed!! :) So.. I am determined being on a mission has made me a GERM FREAK.... Every little thing is so gross to me.. haha walking around our house with shoes on... little weird things like that! haha!
We visited this less active member. And her husband is very active in the church! But she doesn't come to church! She is very nice but this last time we saw her she had really crazy weird questions and thought.. it was so weird!!! I love her because she is so loving and so nice!! I want her to come back to church so much! but she told us she doesn't even feel the Holy Spirit! When she told us that I almost cried! It broke my heart!!
I love being on am mission because I feel like Heavenly Father gives us a little love that he has for all these people and I can feel it!!! It is so crazy how much a I care and love people and I don't really know them!!! I seriously LOVE being a missionary. It is so hard sometimes but it is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I love you all and miss you guys!! Have a great week! :)
