Week 37 of 78 (Orlando, Florida) Trust the Lord, Transfer news, and My new greenie!

 Hola hola a todos!!


Transfer news!!!:

My new companion, my trainee is Hermana Castleton, she's from Utah! And let me tell you, we are legit the same exact person. It's actually so funny, already we're saying things at the same time. We love the same music, same movies, same TV shows. It's been such a blast. And we're also in a new area. Well not fully new but we're reopening the Sisters area in Kissimmee! So I'm right next door to my last area but whole new area and whole new ward! It was so fun meeting them all yesterday!


Sweets:

- had some good member meals to end of the transfer with Hermana Jones

- spent almost all of Wednesday packing and cleaning because we were both moving out of the apartment

- met my new comp Thursday and got to work!


Sours:

- said goodbye to all the missionaries who left (shoutout Elder Bocook, he's a real one)

- said see ya to sister jones, she's my third comp that I only served with for 1 transfer and let me tell you this one was hard to say goodbye to, I love her so very much but I know I'll see her again!

- and already have seen and met some weirdos! So Hermana Castleton is getting the full experience of Florida already!


Pensamiento espiritual:

I came across a scripture while I was studying in 2 Nephi 22: 2


2 Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid; for the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song; he also has become my salvation.


One of the biggest lessons I've learned while serving as a missionary is Trusting the Lord! Now it may seem simple but sometimes it's really hard. There are multiple times throughout the day where I begin to falter and only trust in myself and my companion. But I've come to realize that when I truly put my whole trust in the Lord (which I'm still working on), we see so many more miracles throughout our days!


love you like Jesus

 Hey everyone!! How's everyone doin?? Let's get right into it! Sweets: - our friend Ico got baptized!!!! He's the chillest guy I've ever met and his family got baptized in Utah last year! #eternalfamilies - lots of fire lessons with our friends - not gonna lie this week was pretty lowkey Sours:  - weird knocking interactions - not too many sours this week! Sorry for the short email but I'm not complaining! Pensamiento espiritual: This week there was something on my mind that I just couldn't shake! Thinking of what I am doing here, is crazyyy!!! I love being here and being a missionary! And how so many of our friends and just random people will tell us anything about their life and when I say anything I mean ANYTHING, and we're some complete strangers it's crazy! But I love seeing all our friends testimonies grow so fast and so much! I have so much love for all of our friends! Have a greet week everyone! - Hermana Bailey<3

Sweets : - more buss member meals  - another special musical number at church Sours: - Lots of rejection Pensamiento espiritual : Listened to a Hank Smith devotional, he's funny and helped me a lot with things I've struggled with the past week! - hna bailey
