Transfers???

SO haven't actually gotten transfer calls yet. I blame the zone leaders. But we talked to President this morning and he said I'll be in a trio with the Quebec sisters for like a week, and I think I'll find out today who my new companion will be after that? Not sure.

But it's been a good week!! We kind of redid a first lesson with this guy who has been on vacation for the last three months and he committed to be baptized on October 8th. Claudine is wonderful, she's doing well.

We went on exchanges again this week, it was gooooood. Sister Calderon goes home in like two days. She's remarkably stable. I'm just waiting for when the freak-out happens. It happens every time.

We've had some really good experiences this week and all the ones coming to mind are just too long for me to want to type out right now.

We had zone conference! The training we gave was on teaching simply. It went well! I think. I guess that's not saying much, we planned to say what we thought would make a good training so yeah, WE thought it was good. And then we had testimony meeting and finishing missionaries (just Sister Calderon and Elder Mecham) gave really nice testimonies along with a bunch of other people and then at the end President stood up and said that testimony meeting felt incomplete and asked me to get up and bear my testimony. So I did that. I talked about the way my testimony has grown from the testimony I've always had of eternal families. I kept looking back to see if I'd said the thing President was waiting for. Not sure if it happened. But he seemed satisfied afterwards.

I am so grateful to know that families can be together forever. I KNOW that is true doctrine. I know that as we share true doctrine, the Spirit testifies to the hearts of others' of its truth. I love being a missionary, I am so grateful to be where I am with these people and with Sister Calderon. I am going to miss her so much.

So yeah that's my email for this week,
I love you all!

Sister Lonas
