Ahhhh what in the world happened to all the time. Its the end of the transfer and I feel like it just started. I am heading up North to San Luis Obispo (SLO)!!!! I am so excited because I have wanted to serve up there for ever! Plus all of my favorite people have served up there! My new Comp will be Sister Ashworth and she is a doll! We are going to have the time of our lives teaching Vagibons and savin' souls.

This week God showed His mighty hand in very gentle ways. I asked for a blessing and it just so happened that it worked out perfectly because we were suppose to be at a baptism for a sweet lady named Jessie that the other sisters have been teaching. (I taught her last time I was here with sis snow so I was not going to miss it!) Our district did a 24 hour fast for her because she has really pour health. So we are all at the church ready and get the call that she is to sick to come.

As you can imagine we were all bummed and maybe a bit frustrated because we had fasted for her yet it didn't happen still. was it because we lacked in faith? No. We must do everything in our power then step back and know whatever happens in Gods will. We all had a little meeting and talked about what blessing we have see in each of our lives and areas while we were fasting for Jessie. We all learned that our fast was not wasted. In fact it was used as God intended ti to be. He will never waste our efforts, but He will magnify every ounce we give and give it back 100 fold. We have to look with spiritual eyes and listen with spiritual ears to see and hear His plan.

After our get together I was given the blessing. At this point I was feeling much better with everything. I am so grateful fro the Restoration and for all those worthy holders of the priesthood that make miracles like this possible. What I learned after the blessing is that blessings given to one person can be meant for someone else. Father taught me that whenever I follow promptings I will be blessed and be able to bring needed blessings to his other children.

Tony did not get baptized. this was really sad for all of us because he is SO ready. Some very unexpected things came up and so we have had to push it back quite a ways. But he is still smoke free and trusting in God.

Teresa is amazing! she is soaking up everything we feed her... everything the spirit feeds her! I love teaching her because she is so sensitive to the spirit!

Ventura is amazing! The work of God is better! I love being a missionary and serving anyone and everyone! Im glad they called me on a mission so I could preach and teach and love as missionaries do! #forevermissionary!
