Oh Stella!

Week 2... I think.

This week has gone by fast and it has been hectic (new word in my vocab thanks to sister puckett). And even crazier the elders and I leave on Monday for Rancho Cucamonga!!!!! Everyone else has to wait till Wednesday to leave, so that's sad cause my sister's and I will be separated :(.

I can't remember what I said last week but I think I forgot to mention that because of Sister Water's sweet spirit and friendly manner we were made STLs. And we were given a cute little flip phone named stella to communicate with the branch president, hence the subject. But It was super fun yesterday cause we welcomed 35 new missionaries to our zone, which is three different districts, so yeah that kept us busy. Also we were hosts yesterday! It was so fun to carry 80 pound bags up the stairs to welcome missionaries! And now I don't have to work out the rest of the week, according to Sister Waters :) so fine by me!

Hide and seek in the bins

They found us, not the best place to hide apparently.

Also this morning we cleaned the temple, we ripped up carpet and stuff cause they are rennovating it, so thats fun. I also want to give a shout out to my mom cause they said my vacuuming the carpet was fabulous, all because she took me to vacuum the temple once. 

My district is pretty boss at beach volley ball... cause that's about all we can do without a gym. Also I taught them slammo, and that was quite the experience. I love my district so much! And life is great!

Teaching is coming slowly but surely, I don't think I'm ready to go into the field but ready or not hear it comes. 

In our TRC we are teaching the cutest girl! She is from Australia and her name is Bree, she moved here to stay with some cousins going to BYU and decided to meet with us. She is so enthusiastic and so caring! She keeps saying how kind and devoted mormons are. She is trying to figure out what she believes and if she wants God in her life. And so we are trying to help her figure it out. She is so funny and our district is super jealous that we get her as an investigator. But when we met with her yesterday the spirit was so strong! And she just burst into tears about how she wants to be as devoted to God as we are. And how she wants to figure  out where He is in her life. The spirit was so strong when we explained how He answers our questions and how He cares for us.

I know this church is true! And I know that God loves each one of us. He loves us so much that He sent His only begotten son. I am so grateful for the atonement, and my Savior. I love you all and hope to hear from all of you! I'm just one email away. 

Love ya'll
