Hi Family!
Well, Transfers are here and Sister
Davenport is heading out to Fort Yargo to white wash train!!! She's
getting a brand new missionary on Wednesday
and is going to her area blind!! I'm super excited for her though!
She's awesome and confident and I know she's going to do amazing things
there in Fort Yargo.
My new companion is going
to be Sister Pi (Said like Sister Bee). I believe she is from Taiwan,
but I'm excited because I got to come with her to the mission back in
December and I hung out with her on the Marta. She's super sweet and
really awesome and I'm excited to get to know her more. I'm not quite
sure how much her English has improved. We will see :) But I'm really
excited about it!!
Anything exciting?? Hmm... well we have an appointment on Tuesday
which is Super exciting! We met this man a little while ago and have
been going over to his house a couple of times just to see how he was
doing and if he wanted to learn more. And he actually asked a lot of
sincere questions and went to the right websites. And he said that we
could come back and teach him more so we're really excited about that!
Other than that, we've just been building relationships with the members
and it has been so wonderful to get to know the people here.
Ohhh
goodness. Okay, total craziness this weekend. So, do you ever get that
feeling that everything just seems to happen all at once? Well, that's
been happening with me and Sister Davenport this week. Haha! So,
basically she found out the news that she was white wash training which
is super stressful in and of itself. She also found out that her family
is more than likely going to be moving to Tennessee due to her dad
trying to find a job (all this while she's out in the field. Which is
insane) We also found out that we were going to be getting our carpets
replaced the exact same day as our P-Day when we want to be able to pack
and get things ready for transfers right? Well, we had to get
EVERYTHING off of our carpets and move it onto the tiles. (Everything,
tables, desks, our mattresses.... ridiculous. Therefore, no packing
until carpeting is done...) Not to mention my doctor appointments which
were happening also on the same day. And Sister Davenport really wanted
to be able to get pictures with everyone and be able to say goodbye of
course since she's been here for six months now. And then come to find
out today, being P-day of course when all of this is going on :P, our
carpets aren't going to be replaced and that they have to reschedule. D:
Honestly, when I found out about that, I just laughed and laughed. It
was So ridiculous!! So we'll have to get all of our furniture back in
place and then scramble to get everything packed and ready to go for
transfers. I tell you what! Sometimes you really feel like you're just
being pecked to death by a duck!! But, today had a lot of tender mercies
and little miracles that we've just been able to laugh and have a good
time even though all of these crazy things are happening. I figure, the
Lord has a plan, and everything works out in the end. He's helping
things to move forward smoothly. Sometimes life just gets a little
hecktic and all you can do is laugh :) .
Well,
I hope that everyone is doing well! I'm excited about the reunion and
that you get to go and visit Dallas and Helen soon!! Send pictures :D
I'm glad the kiddos are doing well! I love them so much and I love
y'all!! Have a blessed week!
Just Believe,
Sister Petersen
