Helluuuuur family!:) I LOVE getting your letters! Dad, I hope you had an amazing amazing Father's Day. I couldn't stop thinking about how grateful I am to have such an example to me in so many ways. Ally girls camp looked awesome! I am so glad you had fun. Cate, your hair looks amazing as always and I'm so happy you and Jared celebrated your anniversary at the greatest place in the world. Emily, you are just super cool too.
Currently there is a man farting next to me about every couple minutes. He has headphones in so I don't think he realizes it. Oh the blessings of public libraries;) Hahaha.
Wow, this week was so crazy busy! So first off, transfers are this Wednesday! This transfer was only 5 weeks since the Richard's are going home. Our new mission president comes next week! This next transfer will be 7 weeks. Sister Donehue my trainer is leaving and shotgunning in Westminster! I am getting another companion down here in Eldersburg :) It will be her last transfer I believe. I have a feeling I am going to be in Eldersburg for a while:) Sorry dad, but there are currently no football players in this ward! They moved closer to the city! Haha. But I got to see Amy Gadberry, the Bishop's daughter, from back in my BYU ward! It was so fun.
Tuesday we had district training and Wednesday we went down to Frederick for the new Trainer/Trainee meeting. I am so grateful that I got to come in May and be with the Richard's for a month. They truly are great people. We were able to have 785 social media splits this past Saturday! Isn't that crazy?! The goal was 600 for the last Saturday, but we made it 785. I love that the Lord is progressing His work using technology! Now if He could just send Maryland some iPads:)
Thursday we had exchanges and I got to be with Sister Robinson down here in Eldersburg. It was super fun. Apparently out stove/oven was making some carbon gas smell come up so we had to get that fixed. I am nervous that I lost one too many braincells...
We have an appointment with our investigator tomorrow that I am so excited for! We gave her a MoTab CD last week so hopefully she has been able listen to it :) We are still teaching the family from Haiti!
Mama got her temple recommend yesterday! I am SO PROUD of her! She is going to go every week with other sisters in the ward. We are also working with a recent convert to get her to the temple as well. You know this week we studied temples a lot. I am so grateful for the temple. I am grateful that it is a source of refuge, peace, and the closest that we will ever get to God. I'm grateful that I got to go every week back home because it is the best prep for anything we will ever do. Families truly are forever. I am grateful for covenants, and for faith. Faith truly does make us whole. This work is so good and so true. It is the ONLY thing that will bring us real and true happiness in this life. We were able to go see Meet the Mormons Saturday at the DC visitors center. I haven't been in 2 years so it was great getting to go again. Beautiful place.
I love and pray for you guys ALWAYS. Keep the faith and remember how loved you all are. I am indebted forever for your great examples. Have a great week! :)
Love you all,
