Week #41 - Transfers!!

Welll, to start off Beauty and the Beast was incredible holy cow!!!!!! I loved it so much:):) It was all in Russian but it was sooo great:):):) Ah I'm so grateful I got to see that and kinda take a break from everything:) Also last Monday we went inside St. Basil's Cathedrial! which was way cool:) I absolutely loved it!!! It was good that I enjoyed all of Moscow because guess what... I'm going to an outer city:):)!!!!!! I'm going to a place called Veronish:) It's right next to Ukraine.. haha but I heard it's an incredible place! Every missionary I talk to is like You are sooooo lucky!!!! So i'm way stoked!! Veronish is about 8 hours from Moscow.  I'm way stoked!! I got to serve right in the middle of Moscow, a little out side of Moscow and now I'm going to be completely out of Moscow!! it's going to be a party:) Can't wait!!!!! I'm going to be companions with a girl that just got Training. I don't really know much about her except her name and that:) Which her name is Sister Dutson:) Haha but yeah!! Sunday I had to say goodbye to everyone.. Saying goodbye to everyone though has been really hard.. especially Liana.. but it's ok because I know will still be friends and I will see her again:) But yeah things are going good. My new companion just got done training so that will be fun! I'm a little bummed because I thought I was going to train..? But that's ok:) Whatever the lord wants right!! As for Refina.. she's been really busy. couldn't see her last week! But miracles definitely happened this week which was way cool!! As for my going home date.. . I will be coming home on April 30th!!!

So on Sunday, I'm sitting down and all of a sudden they announce I was leaving. Everyone turns to me and was like WHAT??? And then they asked me to come up and bear my testimony.. Right when I stood up I started bawling!!! I couldn't even hold it together.. Haha and I could not talk haha When I looked out into the congregation my heart just hurt.. Knowing that I was going to leave my family. These people are the reason why I'm the person I am today. They are the ones that completely changed me. And it killed me having to say goodbye. I've served in Sokolniki for almost 6 months.. AH it's awful ha and it hurts. But I think it just showed me how much I truly Love these people with all my heart. I'll never forget this place.

Something I've been thinking about lately are the Christlike attributes in PMG. I've been trying my best to develop them my entire mission. Then on Monday we had the a district meeting. And something came to mind that I never really thought of. So when we pray we ask HF please help me to have more patience or to strengthen my faith or to be humble right? Well when you are asking him for help with that he's going to put you in situation where you are going to have to learn patience or he is going to test your faith or completely knock you down when you think you finally have something right. Something meg told me is to be specific in your prayers. So when you ask for him to give you patience he's going to give you a companion you don't get along with or an investigator that won't keep commitments. So when we pray we need to be specific and ask for more then just give me faith. That's my though for the week haha I would say more.. but.. Yeah:) Love you! have a great week!!!

But miracles definitely happened this week which was way cool!! As for my going home date.. My 18 month mark falls right in the middle of the transfer dates. And I actually thought about it a lot of what I needed to do and I prayed about it and talked to president and I feel strongly that I need to come home in April. So that's just what I've received. How do you feel about it? Anyways mom I love you so much. I hope you have a great week:) Thanks for your love and support always!! I can't wait to tell you about my new area next week:) so will see!! anyways I love you!!!!!!
