I am now in Alabama! Boy oh boy is it pretty here! Swampy but pretty. So this week has been kinda crazy! We have been just planning out zone conference and have some fun while we do it! We are having our zone conference this Wednesday so wish me luck! haha If you dont know what a zone conference is it is basically just where all the missionaries in the stake meet up and the mission president comes and does some teaching. Then he will have the Zone leaders and the Sister Training Leaders train. So we have to train missionaries for about 2 hours. I am excited cause we are training on finding through members! Which is sooo important!! So thats the Big news this week!
My companion and I have found a few people to teach and it is so cool because we know for a fact that we have been directed by the Lord! We are currently just trying to find people to teach! New area with some pretty good responsibilities, just trying to juggle everything right now. ( on a side note I learned how to juggle on the mission) lol. So this week will be all about just finding and finding and more finding haha.
This last week my companion Elder southway and I have been trying to contact some people at this place called Gator Ally! Its so cool because we get to talk to people and see gators haha! The only bad thing is we get rained on like every time haha. I am not talking about just a little bit of rain... I am talking about sheets and buckets of rain! It is crazy!! But the ward here is so awesome!! I am currently serving in Daphne Alabama. My zone is Mobile. So I do all my missionary work in Daphne Alabama and then the Sister training Leaders (STLs) are in our ward too so they cover Fairhope. Which is just more south of us. Just the Lower half of us. The sisters are pretty cool.
SO today for P-day we went down to fairhope and just looked around at all the shops and went to the pier. Also we went to ACAI!! I was soo happy! It reminded me of home so much! Except the bowls were not as good as the ones back home! Shout out to BOWLOLOGY haha. We took some pictures and there was this one spot that looked like we were in italy haha! We also went to lunch with the sisters and talked about like why we wanted to come on a mission. It was cool to hear everyones story. We also just talked about our fams. I talked a lot about my nieces and nephew. We had a pretty chill day. That is one of the hardest things on my mission is not getting to play with little kids. We went over to this families house after church for lunch and they had the cutest little girl! Besides kenna and kambree because they are the cutest ! But she just loved me! She is 4 years old and she just wanted to play with me and my heart started to break because she was just so cute haha. But being here in Alabama has been a blast so far! I cant wait for college football to start up again because man its going to be funny hearing people say ROLLLLL TIIIIIDE!!! hahahah
I love you all so much! I just know this church is so true! I could never deny the truthfulness of this gospel! Thank you for all the support! Now enjoy my companions pictures of me haha
