I miss my district and the MTC SOOOO much! I wish that we were still together. They are my missionary family, and I am not allowed to email them, so I just have to pray that they are each doing well, and trust that Heavenly Father is taking great care of them. I really am excited for each of them, and know that their trainers will become great friends of theirs, but it was hard to say goodbye after being with them for 15 hours a day for 14 days.
Apparently the area I am in now is hard. We haven't had a baptism in over a year, and we get ignored a lot. There are two HUGE (really enormous, and elaborately decorated) churches right by where we live, so lots of people go to those. Also, everyone has dogs, and Sister J has been chased by some before. Also, people blatantly ignore you when you knock on their doors. That one is funny actually. Really? You don't think we can hear you ignoring us through your open window? We can. But we just keep on Keeping on.
We met with _____ last night. It was an awesome experience. She is one of the most enduring people I know, and the pieces of her story that she shared, and pieces of my story that relate to her. I know that she has the potential to be an outstanding disciple of Christ.
I leave you with my favorite scripture of the week: Psalms 116:1-9 (Look it up!) I know that He hath heard my supplications. He answers Prayers.
Love Always,
Sister Garvin
