February 3, 2014 Coos Bay, OR



Feb 3, 2014
Things are going great here. My new Companion is Sister Crosgrove from Utah. She is just so great I love her. We are a lot alike and that has it’s up and down sides and I have only seen good So hopefully it will be a great transfer with her. I know it will.  I am excited to have her as my companion. She is very hard working and we are doing some great work. It’s hard when transfers happen and companions come in and out of an area because the people have a hard time letting go of the old one so the work has been a little bit of a rough transition but we are going strong and going to do all we can to share the Gospel with all and help them work towards baptism. Sister Crosgrove is doing great with the transition and is on top of knowing the area and the people and the ward.
We had a baptism on Saturday so that was great! We had a great time and it was very special for her.
Nothing too crazy has happened I will say. We had a few people really get mad for us knocking at their door and it was a bit of a shock of how they treated us but it is normal for missionaries to have moments like that. We do have a one eyed cat who follows us around our apartment. I strongly dislike cats so I am always running away from it and it tries to catch me haha it’s funny but yet creepy...
Our ward has made a lot of changes with different presidency and such so we have a great new ward lined up for us. We also got a new ward mission leader. He just moved into the ward so it will be great to get to know him. He is awesome though. President Young challenged the whole mission starting now to study on the atonement of Christ and his life on earth till Easter Sunday. Then to write a 15 minute talk about what we learned and studied and send it to him. I think it’s because He is getting released this summer and wants something from all the missionaries so that will be nice to give him. I challenge all to do this though by Easter. I think it will be great to prepare for Easter to learn about our Savior and all that He has done for us and to get to know him better and understand him more clearly. It will be great to do this challenge I know that by doing this each of us will gain a personal witness that He is our Savior and have a growing personal relationship with Him. . I miss everyone so much!
LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH! HAVE A GREAT WEEK! :)
LOVE
