I can't believe that summer is gone! What the heck! Seriously. Time
flies! Just a little reminder to hold on to every minute. This
transfer I am a partner in crime in killing my third companion. As she
is preparing to go home in about two weeks I am just watching her
work. She is on fire! I got put together with two of the best
companions in the mission. It was pretty cool because Hermana Wise
celebrated her 17th month mark, Hermana Fernandez celebrated her year
mark and I celebrated my six month mark! And they both help me out
with Spanish (which has improved a lot!!!!) #giftoftounges.
Yesterday was such a great day! All of the members in the northern
part of California participated in a fast and an hour of prayer that
was specifically for the missionaries. President Alba asked all of us
missionaries to personally call each and every one of the members in
our wards/branches and ask them to participate in this fast and hour
of prayer (I am pro at making phone calls in Spanish). And yesterday
the spirit was just so strong. I was able to bear a testimony and I
was even getting choked up. It was great!
Yesterday at dinner this family fed 17 missionaries. Unfortunately
the husband signed up to feed the 9 Spanish missionaries while the
wife signed up to feed the 8 English missionaries haha! They said that
it was a pleasure anyways having all 17 of us in their home. They are
such a neat family. We had a powerful power hour. The dad explained
that he enjoyed having us in their home after the fast and hour of
prayer that just took place. Afterwards the missionaries all 17 of us
sang come unto Christ. Oh my gosh! It was awesome.
Oh my goodness! My companion was asked to pay the piano for primary
and it was. So fun being in there with them. We were so famous! Haha I
loved it! The leaders were like, "we have special guests with us
today!" And all the kids were like, "the sister missionaries!!" My
heart just melted! Later the teacher was asking them if they had ever
had an experience where they have prayed and Heavenly Father has
answered their prayers and one kid raised his hand and said that one
time he was in Disneyland and his family wanted him to go on the
pirates of the carribean ride and he was scared so he said a prayer
and Heavenly Father gave him strength to go on the ride. All of the
answers after that were all about Disneyland. I was thinking I was in
the right place :)
Thanks for all of the letters and everything! I love you all so much!
Love, Hermanita Hamblin
