So we got our transfer news on Saturday and I AM DYING IN VICTORIA! And getting a different companion named Sister Bell. She has only been out for 3 months so she is still a baby but it will be great! I can't wait to see what these next few weeks have in store for me and all the amazing last minute miracles i get to experience while i am still a full time missionary! When we got the news i was really sad that I wasn't going to end my mission with Sister Magleby! We have gotten so close in just a short amount of time! We have had so many amazing and fun experiences these past few weeks that i will never forget! I are almost the same person! I like to call our companionship a "twinpanionship" because we say the same thing at the same time all the time and are thinking the same thing all the time and like so many of the same things it is crazy! She is amazing and i can't wait to hear how the rest of her mission is especially as she goes to Kelowna with my MTC companion Sister Tingson to pink wash!
This week went by so fast.Time is seriously going by in fast forward! We leave in the morning and then somehow it is night again and we are pulling in for the night! I don't know how it happens!
We were also able to have a great Sunday this past week! Karli came to all 3 hours of church and loved it and can't wait to meet again on Tuesday! She is understanding everything and we had an interesting gospel principles class all about the second coming and thankfully we had taught her about the plan of salvation and answered a lot of the questions that came up in class so she knew exaclty what was going on so that was really cool! Also me and my companion and another Sister got to sing in Sacrament! We sang Nearer My God To Thee! It was amazing! We got a lot of compliments and a lot of people were crying so it was really good! Then on Sunday night we got to go to a Stake MTC for all the leaders in each of the wards in Victoria and President Burt came so we got to see him and hear from him! It was all about how we just need to start conversations and just open our mouths! It was very inspiring and very uplifting!
I love the gospel and sharing it with others and helping other people understand how it applies to them and how it can help them in their lives just like it has helped me in mine! I am excited to really rededicate these last 7 weeks of my mission to make sure i do everything i can for the Lord and his work before its over! This gospel is something that has changed my life and i know can change anyone that is willing to know for themselves if it is true but it all starts with desire and faith! It is only then that the Lord will be willing to give us what he knows we willing to do what we can to act on our answer and apply it! One of the best ways to get answers is from the Book of Mormon! It answers all the questions of the soul and will never lead us in the wrong direction! I love you all and can't wait to talk to you next week! :)
Love,
Sister Heaton

We went tracting and were able to see some seals and I took a picture of my comp in a funny hat from the gift shop.
We also made some fun stuff at a paint your own stuff that we found. I made a bowl and my comp made a piggy bank.
Not to mention a lot of great pictures of the view while we go out contacting!
