Hey everyone! This week was so good!!
On Tuesday, we finished planning out our week, then had a lesson with Michelle, our friend who got baptized this week! We showed her the font and found a jumpsuit for her! Then we got some awesome pizza from this cute little shop called Bluebird pizza. It was so good! We contacted a bunch of people, then had dinner with a part member family.
We went on exchanges on Wednesday! Sister Bills came with me and we had so much fun! She's so sweet and has just been struggling a lot so we just decided to work hard and have fun. She helped me make a bunch of homemade applesauce. Its so good! We also visited with some people, had some lessons and a dinner. We went to young womens and played mafia with them. It was a blast!
Thursday was so good! We got up and helped rip out some blackberries for a member. Then we had to do all of Sister Bills studies, spanish study, new missionary training stuff. We were supposed to have a lesson but the member canceled because she forgot she was doing a famers market. So we decided to go and check it out since its in my area. It was so small and cute! We ended up talking with this one lady who sells soap. I was gonna buy a thing of soap and she tells me I don't need to pay her and she let Sister Bills pick out a soap too. It was so kind of her! We exchanged back, contacted a bunch of people and went to dinner with some awesome members.
Friday was a bit more relaxed but good. We spent the morning making cookies to bring to people. Then we had a lesson with one of our friends and we put him on date for baptism! And his aunt that we are also teaching is thinking about being baptized as well! It was such a good lesson! We visited with a bunch of ladies in the ward and had dinner with a fun couple.
Saturday was amazing!! Michelle got baptized! It was so cool to see her finally make that commitment to God! Elder Mortensen of the Seventy said that recieving the Holy Ghost is one of the most precious gifts you can recieve! We then went out to Olalla and Camas Valley and went on the prettiest drive ever! The fall leaves were so bright! We visited with some people and were put there for a while. We went to the adult session of stake conference. Elder Mark A Mortensen spoke and we heard some good stuff from him.
Sunday was pretty chill. We got up and went to a session for ysa of stake conference, then the general session. Elder Mortensen is a cool guy! He talked a ton about missionary work. We came home and planned. And we got transfer news!! I'm leaving and I'm on a bike! I hope that goes well! I'm headed to Central Point!
I love you all lots and I'm excited for my next area. I'm down to 3 transfers, which is wild!! Its gonna go by so fast!
Hope you have a great week!!
Love,
Sister O'Barr
