Another 6 weeks has come and gone and guess what....? I am getting transferred to Laramie..........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And guess what else?! This basically never happens--Sister Thatcher, my current companion and the Sister I'm training, is coming with me and is still going to be my companion!!!!!!!! I'm so excited to get to stay with her. :) Oh, and guess what else? Haha--we are serving in the Ivinson YSA Ward! It's going to be a blast, and from what I hear, YSA wards are the best because everyone is so excited about the work. :)
On the other hand, of course, it is so hard to leave everyone in this ward. I have seriously gotten so close to so many people here, and I have just leave them and entrust them to the Elders!! ;) They'll do great. :) Once again, we are being replaced by Elders, so there will be two sets in the Buffalo Ridge Ward now. There are around 10 Sisters going home this transfer and only one coming in; there are a lot of areas where they are having to replace Sisters with Elders.
In some bad news....Jay Harnish made the decision not to meet with us anymore. He said he needs, "a break,"....really he just kinda wants to follow what HE thinks is going to make him happy, rather than what God knows will make him happy. Say a prayer that he will be humbled someday and come back into God's fold.
I just know that whatever is happening is God's will, and I will follow Him. "I'll go where you want me to go, dear Lord....I'll be what you want me to be." I will follow Him, and I know that whatever He asks of me is what is BEST for me--not what is good or what is okay for me, but what is BEST.
Love,
