Happy Anniversary mom and dad! 34 Years, you guys are my
heroes!
And happy actual wedding day for Charis and Jared! The
pictures looked so nice, and Charis looked like a Disney Princess!
Congrats!
We have had an awesome week with Patrice, a recent
convert doing temple baptisms for the first time! One of the people she was
baptized for was her great grandmother, and another member was baptized for one
of her grandfathers,which was super cool for her to experience! She loved it
and is excited to go again. Also, I don't know if I mentioned, but
both Sister Snell and Patrice got their Patriarchal blessings last Sunday,
which is super cool! They are both doing so well.
The weeks seem to fly by and sometimes it feels like there
is not enough time to accomplish everything we would like to. We have decided
to drop some of our investigators this upcoming week if we still can't set
appointments with them to help them progress. It is time for a fresh start and
to pick up some new investigators who will be ready to progress right now. We
are continually striving to do all we can to follow the spirit and help our
area reach the potential Heavenly Father has planned for it.
We also did trade-offs with the Dapto sisters this week,
this time with Sister Chan form Malaysia. She is so fun! We came out together
and have been serving in the same zone for 4 transfers now, so we had a lot of
fun together.
Yesterday, in sacrament meeting, us four missionaries sang
the musical number. We sang "I am a child of God" and did the last
verse in Samoan, with the help of Sister Parungo and Elder Slade, who both
speak Samoan. A lot of members in the branch yesterday were commenting on how
natural I look and seem in the branch now. I take this as evidence that
I will definitely be transferred soon because I am too comfortable
here. Which is sad because I love this branch and area so so much! We still
have two weeks left in the transfer so I want to do everything I can to
leave the area better than I found it.
We were finally able to have a lesson with our investigator,
Ingrid yesterday, and it went well, so hopefully we can help her to start
progressing and keeping commitments.
Love,
Sister Pace
