Water + Good Conversation = Happy Plants (week 56)

Hello Everyone!

First of all, so sorry about the weird dud email I sent earlier today. That was totally an accident! Oops.

Another awesome weeks for the books! Also, crazy fact: this week is the last full week of the transfer (mind blown!). 

Highlights!
- Sorella Finlinson and I got to do some service this week! We were introduced to this sweet lady in our neighborhood who needs some help watering her massive garden while she recovers from surgery. So now we get to water her garden every Wednesday!
- We got to meet a really awesome lady in our ward named Tish and her nonmember husband Alex! They fed us lunch and we got to know them! We are hoping to help them can some tomatoes next week. Shout out to my parents for teaching me how to can fruits and veggies as a kid!
- Chris and Sandra are doing well! We had a lesson with them last Monday evening and we were able to teach them about the First Vision and the Book of Mormon! The best part was when Chris said, "Wow. I really relate to Joseph Smith right now in my life. I'm looking for answers too." When he said that, we almost danced around the room! They are both so awesome and now we are working on having a Sunday Service with them!
- An awesome member in our ward made us some homemade artisan bread that we were able to drop off to our friends this Sunday! They looked great and they  tasted AMAZING! A huge thank you to the wonderful ward members here in East Sac!
- We were able to have a pass-a-long lesson with our friend Noa! Sister Golightly and Sister Ofa joined us! We were able to introduce him to the Plan of Salvation and he is so excited to learn more! While we will no longer be teaching him, I am so excited for him to keep learning about the restored gospel! He is in good hands!
- On Wednesday, we had Team-Ups with Sister Rew and Sister Hunt again! Since all of us love music and play different instruments (or sing), we decided to make a music video! If you go to my Facebook, you'll be able to watch it!

It was a great, Spirit filled week! I have loved being able to read Come Follow Me this week and learn about the stripling warriors!

20 And they were all young men, and they were exceedingly valiant for courage, and also for strength and activity; but behold, this was not all—they were men who were true at all times in whatsoever thing they were entrusted.

21 Yea, they were men of truth and soberness, for they had been taught to keep the commandments of God and to walk uprightly before him.

That comes from Alma chapter 53. May we all strive to be more like the stripling warriors and stand true for the Lord! I love how they could be trusted by both their military leaders and by God to always so the right thing. Such incredible young men!

I love you all so much! Have an absolutely amazing day and a great week! You are all in my thoughts and my prayers! Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you all!

Lots of love,
Sister Ferrin
