So big news!! I'm not being transferred!! But many other people are!! With Sister Murdock leaving I of course have a new companion whose name is Sister Hallows! If any of you recall, she was being trained by Sister Packard in Newark last year and I lived with her. She is one of the sweetest and funniest sister ever and so I'm pumped to be her companion. However, she will not be VCT. President is switching things up, and we will now be having split VCT's. The other VCT will be in Farmington, the area right beside ours, and her name is Sister Braunberger. It will be interesting figuring how it will all work out, but I'm excited nonetheless!
This week was filled with lots of goodbyes for Sister Murdock. She had been here nine months, and so saying goodbye was all pretty hard, but good. Change is good, and I've especially seen that in the people we've taught recently. Tim and Ashley are doing well! Just a funny side note: we were reading the Book of Mormon with them and at one point Tim reads out Alma as "A llama." It's just the sweetest thing to watch people adapt and try so hard. They love the Book of Mormon, and praying together. They are just the best!
The El Salvadorians came to church!! We brought out the good old headsets and translated for them. Oh, I love speaking Spanish!! It is seriously such a blessing to teach them, even if not in a Spanish area. And they loved church!! We'll be seeing them again very soon :)
Also, last week I realized I hadn't finished my sentence about the Neffs. To finish what I was going to say, "Planning site meeting with them is like catching popcorn out an overflowing popcorn maker." They just have so many good ideas, just thrown out all at once. So we do a lot of the organizing, but it works :)
Things continue to go well here in the Cradle of the Restoration! Have a great rest of the week!!
