Transfers AGAIN!

Hello hello!

I cannot believe it is transfers AGAIN! Yes, this transfer was only 5 weeks because of Christmas next week, but it FLEW! My mission is going so fast! I cannot believe I haven't seen any of you lovely people for 7 months! Crazy. Anyways, I am staying in my area and I will get a new comp tomorrow!

This has been such a wonderful week. We had Christmas Conference with the whole mission. It was so great. I loved seeing everyone and hearing all of the music. I loved it all! I love this time of year! We have been caroling instead of knocking on doors! So fun! Yes, a few doors awkwardly shut while we were singing and we have been chewed out by many Jehovah Witnesses about how this time of year isn't even when Christ was born..but we met some wonderful people! We are teaching so many wonderful people right now. Oh goodness I love serving a mission and focusing on bringing others to Christ. It is the best thing ever. 

Okay, well I love all of you! I hope you all have a wonderful week! Good luck on finals to all those at school! And congrats to those graduating! So exciting!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

She said she that she knew Heavenly Father heard her prayer


Hi!
 
I am so excited its December! Time to sing Christmas songs:) (I've been singing Christmas songs since October, but now its official).Yay!  
 
What a week. Its been hectic. One of my sweet companions went home! She had back problems. So sad. We miss her! Hopefully she'll be back soon. And Thanksgiving was the weirdest event of my life. We had all day Prep-day and we got so bored by like 10am. We went to a batting cage for like 5 minutes. That was pretty fun. And we played soccer in skirts. And then we were with a couple sets of elders for a while and ya. One decided to bury a dead squirrel. I probably shouldn't have mentioned that. It was so weird. There are times on the mission that I feel really old. Enough said... Hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I was thinking of all of you!
 
I am really beginning to love this area. I love the people we are teaching so much! As they are putting
forth effort to come closer to Christ, I can see the change in them. Its amazing. I love being on a mission! Yesterday the mom of a family we are teaching prayed for the first time with us. She said she that she knew Heavenly Father heard her prayer. She felt it. It was so sweet. Oh goodness I love that family!
 
I love you all! Hope you have a wonderful week!
Love,
Sis Walton
