All, but two of the sisters serving in the Florida Jacksonville Mission
This week was transfers, I wasn't transferred, but Sister Mathis went home and Sister K is a Sister leader so we went to the leadership meeting afterwards. There were twenty new missionaries coming in! It was good to go, I always feel strange though when the departing missionaries give their departing speeches, it makes me feel like I might be up there one day, but Sister K and I have decided that we are never going home, that way we don't have to think about those things, here in the FJM they talk about how we are disciples NOW and FOREVER so we will never stop being missionaries, we will only be transferred. I like that.
I have been working on focusing on trying to talk to everyone, we were also told that tracking works in this area, but every door that we were going to was not happy to see us, until I was walking and thinking, Heavenly Father if this is what you want us to be doing right now I need to have something happy happen, and the next house we went to was super nice and she gave us three referrals! I know that I am out here to help people see the Lord's influence in their lives. The Lord is drawing us to him as stated in 3 Nephi and the only why for us not to be drawn is to fight it, we are always inviting people, but those who are willing are the only ones who will come. I got the feeling this week that as a full time missionary I am here to teach those who are looking. I know the Lord will help inspire the members here and help us to be lead to those elect.
Ricky is still working to be baptised on 9/9/12 and we have another working for the 9/23/12! This ward is also fabulous! So exciting! I love it!!
I love you all too!!!
Stay amazing! :D
