Hey all!
It's been another amazing week. My new companion and I, Sister
Johnson, are getting along great! She's super awesome. We've been
working hard, and things have just been exploding! I don't even know
what happened, but I guess this area just needed Sister Johnson!
Things are really picking up, and I hope they stay this way. We have
two investigators on date for the 19th. We're SO excited. One of them
is Grace Teeters; I think I've mentioned her before. She's older, and
has been pretty...hesitant about coming to church, but yesterday, she
watched the morning session of conference! And she loved it! We're so
excited! But, we know it will be harder to get her to actually come to
church, but we're working on how we can best get her to come!
And then, yesterday, we just taught an amazing referral from the YSA
ward. The member, Andrew, is a fantastic member missionary - he just
asked us for 5 copies of the Book of Mormon to keep on hand, so he can
pass them out - and has prepared this kid SO well. His name is Taylor
Murphy, and I'm so excited for this kid! We taught him for the first
time and put him on date for the 19th. He is so ready, so excited, and
the spirit is just working in him! It's the best!
Pretty much, it's going to be a fantastic transfer. Sister Johnson is
going to be really good for me. I have been realizing that I really
need to work on being more loving, and Sister Johnson is SO full of
love. There's also a whole lot that I can learn from her. She's been
out a little bit over a year - this is her third to last transfer - so
she has a lot of experience and is a really hard worker - and loves
the work! AND she sings! We can sing together! It's the best! We're
putting together a number that we can sing when we visit members, to
bring the spirit into their homes. We're SUPER excited. It's going to
be awesome.
All in all, I really am just loving this work. It truly is the best.
This work is amazing - this Gospel is amazing! I LOVED General
Conference this weekend. I had so many questions answer, and I feel
all the more prepared to just face the world and conquer. And that's
what the point of the Gospel is! To help us conquer. I love it. I love
the spirit and the power it gives me. I'm so pumped for this week.
It's going to be aweosme - it'll probably be really hard, because of
all the good things going on, but I'm so pumped to face it!
I love you all! Thanks for everything. For the support and the love.
It means a lot, and I'm always so grateful for the prayers and the
love that I feel. Hope ya'll have a fantastic week! Love you!
Sister Beth Ann Root!
