July 9,2018 Transfer Calls

This week was a good one. On Monday, we went fishing in St. Augustine. It was super fun and we caught a bunch of fish (pictures sent last week) we had a super time with Brother Mitte. He is super funny and was enjoyable to be around. On Tuesday, we did some service at a place that sells donations to make money for charity. We most of the time just sort through bags of nasty clothing and try to find clothes that aren't ruined. We have fun being together as a district though so it makes it worth it. On wednesday we had our district meeting which is always a joy. The new Preach my Gospel came out so lots of things are a little different than they were before which makes things hard because of how we are use to doing everything. On Thursday we got to visit with Grandpa Girard again. He came up and fed us breakfast. It was super fun to spend some time with him. We ate at Cracker Barrel. The next few days were just normal days with not much going on. On Saturday, we had transfer calls. Me and Elder Hansen were both wanting to stay in our area. We did end up staying together and were super greatful for that. Some of the other missionaries in our district are getting shut down and they are adding another set of sisters from a different district so we will now have 4 sisters and us. Its going to be interesting but we should make it out alive. Haha Sister Missionaires are awesome! 

The spiritual aspect of this week that I wanted to share was something someone shared in Sacrament Meeting. He shared how in an Orchestra one instrament will tune to a tuning box or something so they are perfectly in tune. After that one person sets the perfect tone and the rest of the Orchestra tunes all of their instraments to match. He shared how it is the same with Christ. He came and he set the perfect example for us to all tune our lives to. We all need to strive to keep our lives in tune with him so we may be the best instraments possible in the hands of our Heavenly Father. Something in our mission that has been a huge focus is the "Alter of Sacrifice." I would like you all to think of something this next week you can put on the Alter of Sacrifice and give up for the Lord and so we can be more in tune with his perfect example. I love you all and hope you have an amazing week! Strengthen your testimonies and then help others do the same! Have an aweosme week.
