Hellooo everybodyyy!! I hope you all had a good week as always! I don't even remember what I did this week so bear with me.
I woke up on Monday morning and my body was so sore that it felt like I literally got hit by a truck. I had a huge knot in my forearm and my back and neck just hurt so badly and I didn't know why. However, that did NOT stop me from playing pickleball on p day. We went to Flint and played pickleball with the senior couple, the sisters we are over, and the zone leaders. It was only my 2nd time playing but my team was undefeated. Beginners luck I guess hehe.
This past week I actually saw the sky for the first time since literally November. It is CONSTANTLY gray outside and it gets really hard as a missionary. I used to love gloomy days and you never realize how much the sun affects you and your mood until you don't see it for a couple of months. It was so nice. It was playing tricks on us though because from inside it looks like spring and makes us think it was warm outside when really it's like 10 degrees. But I'd rather have that than it be constantly gray.
On Tuesday night we got transfer news and found out that I and Sister Jorgensen are staying together for another transfer. It's officially her last transfer so I just "kill" all of my companions lol.
The next day we got transfer boards which is one of the most exciting days of the transfer! I love to see where everyone is going! That night we had a dinner appointment up in Columbiaville and then a lesson down in Oxford. So peace out to our miles. At our lesson though the people we were teaching invited 4 of their friends so we picked up more people to teach and it was awesome.
On Wednesday we had a really powerful lesson with this lady named Cindy. She literally started crying and it was so cool. Afterward, we went and visited a less active member. Both of the people we visited smoke cigarettes and man we smelt so strongly of cigarette smoke it wasn't even funny. We had to do lots of laundry.
A funny story is on Saturday morning I was cleaning our bathroom and as I was sprinkling comet on things I don't know what happened but somehow it got all over my face. My life flashed before my eyes but I'm all good now.
Yesterday we got a referral for a guy who is in prison so that was very interesting. He also speaks Spanish so we don't even know why the referral came to us but we sent him over to the Spanish Elders and they are bringing him a Book of Mormon tomorrow.
Yesterday we were on our Stake Correlation meeting and President Johnson was on with us. He had to give the spiritual thought and he told us how he had a meeting with Elder Cook the day prior and he shared what he said in his testimony. Elder Cook told him that he had been thinking about how to best bear his apostolic witness of the Savior without violating any sacred rules and then he continued by saying he knows his voice and he knows his face and he knows He lives. I have been thinking about that since then. There is no doubt in my mind that Jesus Christ is at the head of this church. He knows each one of us so personally and loves us so much!! Anyway, I hope you all have an awesome week! Stay warm!
Trust in the Lord
Love,
Sister Welch ♡
