Picking Up The Green Beans


Hello everyone!! 

Ok it's that time again so here are transfer updates.  I will be staying in North Shore 2nd Ward and Sister Hansen will be going to back to Morgan Park where she came from.  As for my new companion…. drum roll please.....  I will be training once again. Whoot! Whoot! This will probably be the last one so I'm super excited this will be number four haha :)  Even crazier than that, starting this Tuesday I will be the oldest English sister in the mission, oldest meaning being out the longest.  It's so weird to think that I'm on the home stretch. 

Ok enough of that I don't have a ton of time today because I’m going down to get the new sisters from the airport with the APs and show them around the city, and give then thier first opportunity to contact as a missionary.  It's always an adventure. 

This week was pretty usual.  Not a whole lot of stories. So I'll share a few updates

Jimmy and Chloe: doing great as always. They have been looking for a house so that's been taking up a lot of time. Jimmy parents are coming in a few weeks from China so they can meet Chloe and hopefully give their approval so they will get married. This weekend their offer got accepted so hopefully we can get back to our regular schedule. 

Rory: is fervently reading the Book of Mormon he has some trouble believing in Joseph Smith and he took the line if the  Book of Mormon is true then Joseph Smith has to be a Prophet of God to heart. Which is Awesome!! 


Tyler (the guy that walked into the church wanting to get baptized right then): Well he got baptized this weekend and it was awesome!!  There were about 30 RMs that came. They all work summer sales and that is how Tyler got interested, working with these kids. He really had no chance!  30 missionaries right out of the field against 1 Tyler haha it was great!! #membermissionarywork  It was really fun to be a part of and the spirit was so strong!!  At the end he shared his thoughts and feelings and it brought an overwhelming spirit!   It was awesome!

Sunny: we talked with her late last night at presidents home and she has been reading the Book of Mormon everyday!!   Here is a little bit of what she said and the translation




We finally got her in touch with a member that lives in China and the closest church to her is 7 hours away.  That's after the fact that she goes to Hong Kong to get baptized.  So there is still a very long road ahead but it's been an amazing journey to be on and to help her!!   We're going to figure it out one way or another!! 

Everyone else is pretty much at the same place not a whole lot, like I said :) 

Well I'm excited to embark on the adventure ahead of me! Goodbye May, Hello June!! Firefly season is right around the corner.  I'm so excited!!  
Ok that's all for today folks. Thanks for everything!! 

Love ya 
Keep smilin
