FORT the WORTH of Souls: A whole new world... except for FM 730

A whole new world... except for FM 730

Well, transfers was this week and I got to pick up my new missionary on Tuesday! Her name is Sister Hart and she is the best!! We've been working hard and doing lots of studies. Also, to explain the title...there is one road that I had in my last area called FM 730, and now we actually live off that road here in Azle so it's kind of like a little piece of Decatur.

BEFORE TRANSFERS:

-Mama Lindsay, one of my mission moms, created a very unusual dinner for my last in Decatur. She gave us a menu of body parts and gross things and told us to pick a few. With the things I picked, I ended up eating garlic bread, icecream, two meatballs, and some carrots. Best. Meal. Ever. Mama Lindsay also gave us all a little gift bag. In mine she gave me a little Nutella and a phone stand. I love them so much and it physically hurts to leave :(

-After dinner we got to have one final lesson with one of our investigators. That was so great and we got pictures so they'll be down below.

-a few weeks ago we helped a lady move some things into her garage. She insisted that I take something, so I took this little Ironing board that's for sleeves. Grandma Grace, my mission grandma, reuphollstered it before I had to leave. She's so sweet. I'm gonna miss her. She also made me some pot-holder hot pads.

A NEW LIFE IN AZLE:

-Sister Hart and I got to our new area on Wednesday. We unpacked and got to work. We got to meet our ward mission leader and a recent convert. That was really awesome to just come and be welcomed right away.

-Apparently we have a donut guy. We got a random call from a Brother Lee. He said we was dripping off donuts in the morning. And boy did he bring donuts. He brought 3 dozen!!

-We have our work ahead of us. You wont see meet complaining, but I will tell the truth. The apartment was pretty messy when we got there. In the near future we will have to find time to clean it up a little so that I can have some peace after our long days of work. Also, we don't have a washer and dryer which I have gotten used to for my whole mission. That's not too big of a biggie though because there's one place really close. Speaking of close, our church building is just across the street!! I'm just glad that there aren't any bugs that I see. I heard this apartment had cockroaches, but a paper on the fridge showed that it just got sprayed so yay!! That's a plus, and that's what I'll end with.

-Our ward mission leader is the best. He's super supportive and involved, but whats the best is that he can GRILL like no other. He made us some type of garlic Brazilian steak and it was to die for also church was great. It was good to meet members here, everyone is so sweet.

SPIRITUAL THOUGHT-

The story of Job is coincidentally a very good story for this past week. Boy oh boy did I have it good in Decatur. I guess I got too cozy there. I feel a little like Job. Something really amazing was taken from me, but I know who God is and I know He has a plan for me. How could I argue against Him when He is all knowing and all loving. Did you study Come Follow Me this week? I would invite yall to do so. I love the Old Testament now!!
