This week as always went by way to fast! It was a very interesting week for sure with all the transfers and changes! But i know this is going to be the best transfer!
We had Sister Jeppson our Sister Training Leader with us on Tuesday due to her companion being transferred! So we got to see her off! Then we had a wonderful lunch at our favorite place La Belle Patate with a wonderful member Brother Lott! Then got to see 2 of our recent converts and see some of the YSA recent converts and then at the end of the day we got to spend time with Karli! She is doing so well! She stopped drinking coffee and smoking and seriously can't wait to be baptized on the 14th of November! She is the most golden investigator i have ever met! She has had some amazing witnesses of truth and has a great desire to do good and have the spirit in her life!
Karli is our only progressing investigator right now! We have a few that are eternal investigators but are just waiting to make a decision about things that are holding them back like smoking or living with their boyfriend so we are not seeing them a lot but enough to let them know we love them and are here for them when they make the decision! But we have a bunch of appointments set up with new people we have this week so we are excited to increase our teaching pool and find more of Heavenly Fathers children that are prepared and ready for the gospel!
Then Sister Magleby left me at 9 am on Wednesday morning after a long night of helping her get all her stuff packed! After that, Sister Jeppson and i were companions for the day and were in charge of getting all the sisters to their new areas and to the ferry on time! So we took a Sister to the ferry at 1 and had her companion with us until 2:30 when her companion came in then we had a dinner appointment we went to since our companions were suppose to come in at 4:30 but missed their ferry by 2 minutes so we got them at 6:30 except we got a little lost on some round about (5 in a row) and a side road that was really pretty but finally got our companions! It was an adventurous day!
My new companion is Sister Bell! She is amazing and is such an amazing missionary! We have set so many goals for the transfer and really want to work really hard and make sure we make this transfer a transfer of miracles! We already have seen so many miracles with the short time we have been together, making me so excited for the rest of the transfer! She is so full of desire and loves to work, so it has been a really good change! She is determined to help me finish my mission strong which is exactly what i need! She has so many good ideas and really wants to help our investigators progress!
Our Bishop here, Bishop Nohr had all the missionaries stand up in sacrament because each companionship in the ward had a new missionary and announced that we want to come to members homes and they don't have to feed us just let us in their homes so that we could feel of their spirit and we could share an uplifting message to build their testimonies and faith! It was amazing and we already got a call from a member wanting us to come and see them! It is going to be amazing! And with my goal of making sure i leave the area better than i found it we will for sure be working hard and being as exactly obedient and i know we will help the area progress even more!
I love you all and hope you have an amazing week! Can't wait to talk to you next week and hear all about how your Halloween was! :)
Love,
Sister Heaton

We got matching shirts and had an amazing brunch before she left
