TRANSFERS!!

Hi!
 
So, this week was transfers. I stayed here in Porter/New Caney area, and I have a new companion.

Her name is Sis Kempton, she graduated from BYU in humanities in 2012, been out on the mission for 9 months and is from Rexburg, Idaho. Definitely a huge change from Sis Smith. Like totally different. So, it's been a challenge to adjust, but I'm trying! I attached a pic of sis smith and my last p-day together!
 
Such an awesome week! Bob (my fav who Sis Smith and I have been meeting with for like 2 months) came to our ward social on Friday, church on Sunday, and is preparing to be baptized on Sept 7th!!!! He is such a miracle story to me. The way we met him, as well as the change I have seen in him is a testimony to me that people can change and that Heavenly Father knows and loves us each. So- the way we met him: Sis Smith and I had planned to go on this street to go find people, but we got lost (neither of us can really follow a map - I just bought myself a GPS this week) but anyways we just decided to drive down this one road that didn't have a street sign and was back in the sketchy part of Porter. After talking to a few people we were about to head back to the car and then we saw bob outside. He looked a bit sketchy, so Sis Smith started walking the other way. My body started walking towards him, I really didn't have much control over it. I found myself talking to him, and he was much nicer and a gentleman which you would not expect seeing his environment. We ended up chatting for a while. Anyways..so later - like a week later - we found out we ended up on the street we had planned on going to! So cool! He came so prepared to hear about the gospel. Friends have been telling him that they see a change in him! So cool! I've seen it to! I don't feel like we did anything. He is awesome. I attached a pic of us at church yesterday!
 
Life is wonderful! I miss you all! Miracles happen! You just need to look for them!
 
Love you! xoxoxoxo
