Transfers! And Happy Fourth! July 4, 2016

Transfers are upon us! I am staying in Medford and am getting Sister
Peterson for my companion! Sister Connelly is going to Springfield for
her last six weeks. She is excited! I am sad to see her leave, but I
know she will great things in Springfield. I can't wait to see what
Sister Peterson and I will be able to accomplish here in Medford! 😎

Today, we have to go into our apartments early tonight to get out of
the fray of crazy Oregonians. 😏 😬 ✌️

This week we had lots of lessons set up! Mike Fehely is doing great,
he's older, so he doesn't retain as well and it hard for him to focus,
but we taught him the beginning section of the Book of Mormon. I
invited him to baptism, but he said no. But maybe, in the future, he
will accept!

We are also teaching Kayden, she is getting baptized next week, but it
will be a child of record baptism. She is so cool, I love her so much!
She is progressing well.

Christine is a recent convert and we taught her a really good lesson on trials and
how they make us stronger. In fact, she helped answer my prayers- we
were talking about faith and how it sustains us. She said: "You know,
the faith was always there. All I had to do was trust in the faith,
trust in the feeling that was already there." Wow. So profound! Our
answers are already inside of us, all we have to do is trust in the
knowledge that God has already given us!

Yesterday, we finally got a lesson with Tommy. He awesome and African American.
His kids remind me of JeKobe...hahaha. We retaught the restoration
with him, he was a little confused with the priesthood and of
prophets, but as we talked of the Atonement, the spirit was so strong,
it was just a warmth that filled the room. He agreed to read the Book
of Mormon and to pray about it. 😊

Food for thought: The Atonement is real. Trust in the knowledge you
have received, hold on, don't jump ship.  God will always be there,
His love is always there. Keep praying, keep trusting, and one day,

you will receive more blessings  than you can comprehend.
