Dear Family, Another week 1 of another transfer down. Time is going by way to quickly! It feels like almost second nature now just to be in charge and to know everyone now that this is my 4th companion in the area. Sometimes I have to stop and try and remember what it's like to not know everyone or where everything is at. I am so grateful to be in this ward. By the end of the transfer I will have spent half of my mission in this area. I have learned quite a few things, but one thing that always makes me laugh is that I have been in more wards(6) in college than I have been on my mission(3) and I think I have been the happiest here because I know what I'm doing so I think I my have to stay in a ward for more than a semester when I go back to school if I really want to love where I'm at:) If I had to describe this transfer so far in one word it would be running. We have just been running from appointment to appointment yet trying to figure out how to use less miles haha:) There is so much work to be done here and the Lord is truly blessing us with great people to work with! This week we were blessed with free churros!! woohoo the best:) We went to go contact a super vague(we only got the cross streets with the description of they drove a white van) from a member so we decided to go check it out and see how "lucky" we were. Well before leaving the car I remember specifically praying to be guided by the spirit that we could find Adilyn(the referral) or whoever else God wanted us to find. Well, the first door we knocked on it wasn't her, but it was this girl Stefany who opened the door that was just visiting her friend's house! We started talking with her and by the end we were able to set up a return appointment and as we were leaving she mentioned that her younger sister had looked into the mormon church a little while ago and would be in town that week and would invite her to the lesson! Pretty cool experience because we have really been focusing on really harnessing Elder Ballard's promise and exhortation to draw down the powers of heaven in our work. The ward had a Father's Day activity at the park on Saturday that we went to for a little bit which was super fun. It was really weird to be at a park. Rough...my computer just froze for like 10 minutes...:( I love you all and hope you all have a great week! Nat, great work on the letters! haha:) Love, Hermana Ford
