Pro Garlic Chopper - Week 58

 Hello Everyone!

Another short but sweet email this week informing you that I am alive and well! 

Highlights!

- TRIO LIFE (pt.2) I now have two lovely companions: Sorella Finlinson and Sister Olsen! They are both the greatest and we have had a wonderful time. I've laughed so hard to the point of wheezing the past 5 nights in a row. They are both so sweet and I love working with them!

- New friend! We started teaching this cute girl named Sara this week! She is from a part member family in our ward. We had a lesson on praying to God even over the small things! We are excited to keep working with her!

- We helped pick tomatoes and can homemade tomato sauce with one of our part member families this week! That was a lot of fun and I have greatly improved my garlic chopping skills. We are hoping to start teaching the dad, Alex next week. They are a super cool family and they make us laugh!

- More awesome lessons with our amazing members! They gave us some fresh strawberries and homemade banana bread on Sunday. We honestly are so spoiled, it is humbling. I'm so grateful for the wonderful ward members here and all of their love and support!

- Sorella Finlinson, a girl in our ward who is about to leave on her mission, and I did a musical number for our ward's zoom Devotional this Sunday! We performed I Know That My Redeemer Lives and it was super special! 

Thank you all for all of the love and support! Before I go, I want to share a quote for a talk I read this week:

"As we become more like Him, we will feel at home in His house and He will feel at home in ours." 

- Elder L. Whitney Clayton (April 2020)

I love this quote so much! It's so important that we make the atmosphere of our homes (and even apartments) worthy of the presence of the Spirit. As we do this, our homes will become more like the house of the Lord, His Holy Temples!

I love you all so much! Have an absolutely amazing week and good luck to everyone who is starting school this week! 

Lots of love,

Sister Ferrin

Sorry, no pics this week. I'll do better next!
