Hey guys! This week has been wild, fun and full of packages!
On Monday, we had so much fun! The zls has everyone over for a bbq and it was a blast! We sat outside in the sun, I got a little red. We played Uno no mercy and it is so fun! We ate hamburgers and hotdogs and all sorts of snacks. We then went to district council.
Tuesday was interesting but good! We had interviews with President. My parents had sent some packages to the mission office so they brought them down to me. It was fun to get them! My interview with President was good. Nothing crazy. In Sister Linares interview, President told her that I'm going to be transfered next transfer. So I have 4 weeks left here in Klamath. During interviews, Sister Cornelius and Sister Petersen did a whole waffle bar, which was fun. Then we went to lunch with the sisters at a thai place. It was good! We had an early dinner with a sweet member. We went over to the church to prepare for the restoration devotional. Overall the devotional went well! The musical number I did went really good!
Wednesday was good except that Sister Linares was sick. I also got another package from my older sister! She sent me some healthy snacks and some other random things. I love her so much! It really was so kind of her. We contacted a bunch and had a few lessons.
Thursday was awesome! All our original plans fell through but we were able to set up a bunch of lessons. We also met with our new ward mission leader and talked through a bunch of stuff. We went to volleyball and had a ton of fun! Also, a random package appeared for me with mini junior mints. I found out they were from my parents but I had no clue all week!
Friday was fun! We went to this neighborhood about 10 miles out of town and parked our car. The weather was so nice! We visited a ton of contacts we had. We had a couple lessons, then went over to the church for this ward dinner. We helped set up, then we got to eat. It was a dessert auction to raise money for the young mens and young womens programs. People were buying plates of cookies for like $75. It was crazy! This one really rich family in the ward bought a plate of cookies, then gave it to us. Then another family did that, then another! So we had three plates of cookies. It was so kind of the members!
Saturday was fun too! We had a lesson with a new member, then went over to this birthday party for a friend. She is the sweetest person! We had such a good time! I think she really appreciated us coming. We did some weekly planning at the lake. It was so pretty! Very windy and a little cold.
Sunday was good. We had church, then we went and visited some people. It has been windy and cooler, which has been so nice since our apartment has no AC. We had a really good member dinner.
This week will be busy! We will be in Medford on Wednesday and Thursday. We are staying the night with some sisters there. We have zone conference on Wednesday with Gary B Sabin and MLC on Thursday. We have to be at zone conference at 8 and it ends at 4:30. I hope they feed us lunch and we have a couple breaks. If not, I might die!! Should be awesome though to hear from Elder Sabin! I love his talk he gave in October 2023, Hallmarks of Happiness. I would highly recommend you give it a read! One of my favorite quotes from it is “In God’s eyes, kindness is synonymous with greatness.”
I hope you have a fantastic week! Don't forget how important being kind is!! Love you all!
Love,
Sister O'Barr
