Hello Everyone!
Well... another transfer has come and gone. I seriously can't believe it has been six weeks since Sorella Finlinson and I came to East Sac! We have had such an amazing time and seen so many miracles! We got transfer calls on Saturday night aaannnndddd...
I'm shotgun training in Stockton, Hmong speaking!
Just kidding.
Sorella Finlinson and I are both staying here in the Eastern Avenue ward! But... we are getting a new companion! TRIO LIFE! I'm super excited because our new companion is Sister Olsen (the same Sister Olsen I served with in Rancho)! She is awesome so stay tuned for some great stories and miracles this next transfer!
Highlights of the Week!
- Sor. Finlinson and I got to do a lot of awesome service this week! We were able to water plants again this week (twice!) We also went to a member's house and made homemade strawberry jam! It was so much fun getting to can again, it reminded me of all the time we canned at home!
- We had another awesome lesson with Chris and Sandra this week on Thursday! Our ward mission leader came with us which was so nice! We started teaching them about the Plan of Salvation and when we taught them about the Fall of Adam and Eve and how it was part of God's plan, Sandra got so excited! She kept saying, "That just makes sense! It makes sense!" It was AWESOME! We are trying to have a Sunday service with them so extra prayers would be greatly appreciated!
- NEW FRIEND! We made a new friend this week! His name is Zackie and he is super cool! He meet with missionaries before so when we called him, he was happy to meet up with us this week! We met him at the near by park and had a great conversation with him. He isn't originally from the USA and had some crazy stories. We introduced the Book of Mormon to him and we are meeting with him again next week to talk about it!
- Um... so if you haven't heard yet, California is basically on fire so that's exciting. Luckily there aren't any fires in the Sacramento area but the smoke and the air quality have been really bad this past week. Haha good thing we already all have masks! Prayers for all the firefighters and those working to put out the fires!
- Today marks 13 months since I entered the MTC. Holy cow time flies so fast!
Thank you for all of the love and support this past week and transfer! If I had to give this past transfer a theme it would probably be: missionary work is a joyful work! Sor. Finlinson and I have been having so much fun these past few weeks! Sure things are hard and we have our disappointment, but through Jesus Christ, even our trials can become treasures! I am so grateful to be a missionary here in Sacramento California and I am pumped for another transfer!!
Love you lots,
Sister Ferrin
