Hello errrbody,
Welp, the first transfer where I knew I was
changing companions... And the winner is?? Sister Guevara! Don't worry, I don't
really know who she is either, so you don't have to feel like you are being
left out. But, I have run into her about two times and she is super nice and
she will be great for me. Also, the Lord picked us to be companions, so I'm not
too worried. She'll come on Wednesday when I take Sister Ryser back to
Montreal.
Look who it is! My
cousin/not cousin or whatever! Haha Sister Dick is super sweet. (Sister Dick is Mo's cousin's daughter's daughter. Figure that out! But we finally met up). |
This week was a good one. Nice and crazy and
stressful like always. But we had some sweet miracles and it was just good. It
was crazy because we have been running around trying to say goodbye to everyone
that Sister Ryser wanted to say goodbye to. Pretty much I spent most of my week
saying, "but don't worry, I will still b
e here with another missionary,
and we are coming to see you." I was kind of worried that a lot of people
would stop seeing us since Sister Ryser is going (she has been here 11 months
afterall), but then I realized that if that does happen, it won't be because of
me, unless I make it because of me. So I will have to work at keeping the area
up. But the companion that I am getting is super sweet I hear, and I think that
people will love her so it will all go well. She can speak Spanish too, so
that will be nice with some of the people we work with that like to speak
Spanish too. I am just really excited for a change. I am glad I am staying in
Longueuil though, I love it here. But you know, out with the old and in with
the new. I have been wanting to get better at some things, and I think that it
will help having a new companion. I think there are just some bad habits that
we have developed, and it has been hard for us to change them. But with a new
companion it can be like a #freshstart. Or something. We'll see how it goes. I
don't want to make any excuses for myself, because if something needs to be
changed you should just fix it, and not wait for a new companion, because in
real life we don't get new companions every six weeks. So my bad habits should
have just been fixed right away, but sadly I did't always have the motivation.
But luckily, now I do! So get ready for some mega sweet changes. Jk, it's
mostly stuff you won't even notice. Just like my day to day things.
We have some progressing investigators right
now. It's tough because with some of them, they just fear man more than God. It
is just a bummer because when it's like that and stays like that, they'll stand
before God one day and probably just say, "dang it." So we are trying
to help people see and feel the importance of the gospel in their lives. We
just have to be patient. But actually, here is something else super sweet! Did
I ever tell you about the guy Christopher we met? He was a huge miracle, that
sadly spoke English. But! Good thing we have the Greenfield Parc elders who we
referred Christopher to. Anyway, long story short, the elders started teaching
him, and they called us yesterday to tell us that after Sunday school,
Christopher told them that he wanted to be baptized! Woohoo! Result! Heavenly
Father seriously prepared Christopher, and I am so thankful that we ran into
him and were just at the right place at the right time. Things are just pretty
normal is all that I can really say. Maybe my self improvement will bring a
more interesting email for next time. But for now, just know that I love you
all and I'll write to ya next week!
Well, I love you all! I will try this week to find a family
that will let us skype on Christmas. I was kind of waiting for my new comp to
get all of that worked out. But yeah, we should get it done. I was wondering if
maybe you wanted to try making a skype account for me, and then I could call
you or something? I'll be honest though, I have never used skype, so I don't
even know how it works... We'll be in touch!
Happy Christmas Harry!
Love,
Soeur Kinghorn
Nasty blister. We're working hard. |
