Blessed Away!

This week has been crazy. A lot has happened. 

First off, Peggie got baptized last Saturday! Sister Kemp sent me the program and pictures. Apparently during her baptism when she came up out of the water she yelled, "I did it! I did it! Hallelujah! Praise God! , which totally fits her. I really love her so much. On Friday I got a call from Elder Wallace (one of our Zone Leaders) who told me that on Thursday Peggie passed away. It was really sudden, she was cooking in her home and something sparked on the stove that scared her so badly that she fell back, hit her head, and died. That was an emotional day.  Andre got baptized too, so that was pretty great! 



                                
 I went on exchanges with Sister Hegstrom!!! AHH!! My MTC companion!! :) Well one of them. She actually got really sick during the day so we stayed in most of the day, but we got to teach some! It was so cool to see the jump that we had both made from the MTC. We were really unified. 

Also, on the way over there though I found out that our other MTC companion was going home the next day due to serious illness. Tears were most definitely shed. By the way, if you are reading this Sister Anderson, you better write me!

It's been a long week.  I really have to make sure to pace myself. I have been taking on way too much, so I am working on relaxing. You can't follow the spirit, if you can't hear the spirit! Heavenly Father is making me learn patience. He really does have control over everything.

 We got a new car this week! It’s a 2014 Ford Fusion with less than 50 miles on it when we got it :) oh yeah. It also rained yesterday! There has been a really bad drought so we have all been praying for rain and it finally did! What a blessing :)


 I love you all and hope you have a safe week!
