HOWDY!
Okay. So first thing's first I'm the realest. Bahah just kidding. First
thing's first, I'M GETTING TRANSFERRED. President called on Saturday with the
news. And it's definitely bittersweet. I'm going to miss Fayetteville and Ft.
Bragg like crazy. I have met so many amazing people here and it's going to be so
hard to say goodbye. But at the same time, I am ready to move on and see more of
North Carolina. I have been here for almost 7 months and that's a long time
haha. So it'll be good to get out and see change. :) So that's my exciting news
for the week!! :) Oh I'm also gonna be a sister leader again. And my next
companion is gonna be someone who came out with Sister Peterson...so I'll still
be the senior companion. It'll be good!
So this week! It was good!! Flew by...as per usual. And to be honest as I'm
sitting here...I have no idea what even happened. Sooo. I gotta put my thinking
cap on. I'm pretty sure my memory is just getting worse and worse the longer I'm
out....haha NOT GOOD! Anywho!
I think the only other exciting thing that happened this week was we went
on exchanges on Wednesday. So Sister Peterson was able to stay in our area with
Sister Barney and I was able to go to Cameron with Sister Skokos. Turns out that
there's a military base there too! I was able to meet the Nielson family. And oh
my word they're hilarious. Bro Nielson is an MP on base (military police....I'm
pretty sure that's what that means...but don't hold me to that one....they're
policemen on base though...so yeah.) Anyway, when I told him where I was from
and what area I serve in, he was like hmmm, a Canadian serving in a military
base...yep definitely a spy. So he went on this tangent of how I'm not even a
missionary at all, it's just my cover and that I'm totally a Canadian spy. He's
like you're gonna be transferred to Jacksonville next because there's a military
base there and then you're gonna come here to Cameron and you're just gonna hit
up all the military bases in your mission. Hahahah it was pretty funny. It's a
funny story to go by. BUT, people don't worry. I really am a missionary called
of the Lord. Don't fret. It's all good. A Canadian spy just sounds awesome
;)
But yeah! Exchanges went well! Sister Skokos is the bomb dot com. I love
her a lot. It was good to be back in Fayetteville with Sister Peterson though.
:) I feel blessed to have such a great companion and that we actually get along
really well! It's great. I'm gonna miss Sis. Peterson to pieces. She's the
best.
Hmm. Not too much else happened this week. We did a lot of tracting...and
got rejected a lot...Actually out of all the doors we knocked (which was a
lot...I lost count), only one person wants us to come back...and she was super
hesitant about it haha. Gotta LOVE the South!!! Hoorah. But, we still have faith
that we'll find who we need to find!! Our district is also great because they
have all agreed to help us out. This is how it's gonna go down: There's a
Goodbye Zone Conference this Wednesday (it's the Bernhisel's last one...sad
face...) and so they have to come to Fayetteville anyway. So! What we're gonna
do is give each companionship an area to go tracting in and they're gonna go and
see who they can find! There's gonna be 7 companionships (including us) tracting
out Fayetteville that day. So we're BOUND to find someone :) Haha. It's gonna be
a lot of fun, I think! I feel super blessed to have a district that is willing
to do this with us! They're all awesome.
Anddd that's all I have for y'all this week! I hope you all had a great
week and I hope you have the best week ever until the next! I love you all so
much! Remember the church is true and God is good. And do all the missionary
work that you can! Share the gospel with everyone! We have such a great
knowledge that the Lord's church has been restored and we need to share that
with as many people as the Lord puts in our path. So...everyone ha ;) I promise
you that it will be worth it! And as you share your testimony, your testimony
grows exponentially. It's a win win situation ;) Just do it!
Keep smiling. I love y'all.
MUCH LOVE,
Sister Blumel
