My Samoan companion, love her
Cupcake turkeys with Sis Hartely her first week here
HEY,
I am so sorry if my e-mails seem to bore you now a days... I have a hard time sitting at a computer for an hour.... I'm just in go, go, go mode all the time!
This past week was a
long one for me. I haven't been feeling the best physically and I'm also
emotionally worn out. I had to do some "me" time and reconnect. It got to
the point that is was difficult for me to serve others the way the
needed to be served because I wasn't taking care of what I needed to. I
also got a priesthood blessing and that offered me a lot of comfort.
We went to a RS activity all
about cooking! It was nice to get to know the members better and I know
my new companion appreciated that because she is feeling overwhelmed with
having to take over when I leave. We also take out a lot of young women
with us and I love seeing their lives change as they feel the joy that
comes from missionary work! I've gained a lot of friends and loved ones
in the time that have been out here! It will be hard to leave all of
them!
I've been making goals but its
been some what challenging because there's a lot of things that I still
don't know about. I'm trying to pick specific things to work toward but I
feel like general things keep coming up.
If
anything, I want all of you to know that I am doing well, I am happy, I
am growing, and I am grateful for all that I have! We have to dinner
apts for Thanksgiving Day. We will see how that works out! I am looking
forward to a new week! It's going to be great! Well family I love you and
pray for you always! I hope you can feel the love that I have for you! Enjoy your busy week and I will talk to you soon!
xoxo sis johnson
