Hi family and friends,
My email this week is going to be shorter because it’s
transfers which is always a busy time.
So, I get a new companion tomorrow. Sister Blauer finished up her mission and
went home today. I’m going to miss
her. My new companion will be Sister
Lilley! I’m excited to serve with her
this transfer. When I was in Kellogg,
Sister Chugg and I lived in the same apartment as Sister Lilley and her
companion. So, I got to know her when I
served in that area. She’s great and I know
that she will do well here! I pick her
up tomorrow.
I don’t have a whole lot to report on this last week. It was a busy week with exchanges and also
trying to find new investigators. Not a
lot of success to report this week, which is a bummer. We met a guy named D___ in the parking lot
and we set up an appointment for him to come take a church tour. He didn’t keep his appointment though, and
I’m pretty sure he gave us a fake phone number. :( Nice trick. Also, you know how it’s just really, really
low when a girl and a guy are girlfriend and boyfriend, and one of them is low
enough to break up with the other by doing nothing more than sending a
text? Well, the same thing is just as
disappointing when an investigator “breaks up” with you by sending a text. :(
Yeah, we had an investigator text us saying that they didn’t want to
meet with us anymore. Bummer. :(
Some weeks are that way though on the mission, and you just keep working
hard and the Lord will bless you at some point.
We did have a great lesson with a less active member named
J__. She served a mission and
everything. She is super cute and
bubbly. She got married to a guy who she
thought was great and treated her well, but literally the night they got
married he started abusing her. She got
a divorce from him down the road, but it’s taken a toll on her
spiritually. We had a lesson on divine
worth and repentance. It was great and
the spirit was so strong! :) She asked a
couple of hard questions that I really didn’t have an answer to, so I just said
a prayer and shared my testimony, and the words were given to me. It was a great experience. :)
Thanks everyone for your letters and support. You all have an awesome week!
Love,
Sister Worthen
