Transfer 11 Week 3

Hey everyone!

This week was good! It felt very busy and very quick though. We went
on exchanges on Tuesday and again on Saturday. It is such a great
learning experience to work with other sisters. I am constantly
impressed with these younger missionaries coming out. They are super
fantastic! They have such devotion to following the call of god. So
many of their stories include the phrase, I knew it is what I needed
to do at the time. More often than not they were in the middle of
something, either dating or school or some other opportunity that by
the worlds standards is a do not miss that opportunity. But they set
it all aside to serve The Lord in this way for a year and a half. They
are amazing. I have learned much about following the spirit and
teaching by the spirit. Listening is key in all aspects of life. We
need to listen to the spirit so we can listen to god, we need to
listen to those around us so that we may be aware of what is going on
in their life's and we need to listen to our church leaders that we
may listen to those things we should do be and to be prepared.
The women's broadcast was phenomenal! I loved it! My companion made
the remark that it was pretty much a musical that we had the pleasure
of attending! I thought it was awesome! Thoughts and lines that stood
out to me are: "speak serene peace", what are my hands doing? Are they
an example of what Christ would do?, help wanted, sacrifice is a gift,
becoming more complete and laying aside the things of the world. Those
were things that really stuck out to me and hit home with my heart. I
loved the emphasis on keeping covenants. It was a beautiful day. I
love you!
