Hello everyone!!!!!!!! πŸ™‚

Welp! This week was something else.

The Branch is going to start going better now.
We found out that a lot of the rumors were true……. Ummm… Yeah! But never the less everything will start to fall into place from here on out.
We are going to start going around helping to strengthen the members and now we can really focus on our purpose without worrying about other things.
Tank you so much for putting our area in the temple.
This SundayΒ went really well. It was testimony meeting and you could see how all these trials have been effecting the people but they are so strong it blows me away.
Also somethings that were hysterical:
Before I begin I must explain that testimony meetings here are a wonderful, funny, awesome mystery box of surprises.
I love the people here so much. I don’t think I could handle the things that they go through… And sometimes I am not even sure I can handle the things I am going through!! Haha the Lord provides much strength for me.
Sister K. is really nervous to leave and she has a lot to handle before she leaves. I have been praying endlessly for her. She is such a tough girl and I have learned a lot from her. Last night she was feeling really sad and was crying… I have never seen her cry!! I knew it was bad and so I trusted the Lord as her (mission) mom to help her in any way I could. I made her sit on my lap and we talked and cried for a long time. I think I was able to help her out πŸ™‚ She sounds just like me when I first started, she’s really hard on herself and wants to be perfect and be better fast! I keep saying “all in good time”. I am so grateful for the things I have learned here on my mission.
This week I got my transfer call again πŸ™‚ Sister K. is headed off to Suriname in two days and I am basically training again!!! I am getting a TEMPORARY missionary from Guyana! Her name is Sister K. She seems to be wonderful. It’ll be a good learning experience for her as she prepares for her real mission. And coming here will help her to know how to strengthen the small branch that she goes to! Awwww Heavenly Father is in the details of our lives, I know that for true.
This transfer coming I know will be a very wonderful learning experience. As they all are.
To answer your q’s:
How many branch members?-We have around 40-50 attend most weeks.
Where do you attend?-The church building is a normal building. It is on the upstairs floor. Our chapel is very small. It is more like a big room rather than a chapel but it is nice. I love it there.
What is the town like?-The town here is very small. Very farmish and low key. The area is mostly flat and some big hills sometimes.
Weather?-IT IS SO HOT!!!!!!!!!!! Sweating all day ery day. It’s nice.
Companion?-My comp is doing great! She is a doll. So strong and jumped right into the work. Good thing too because she is starting to train half way through her training.
How are you sleeping? How are your clothes?-I’ve been sleeping great and my clothes are doing pretty good. Pretty beat up. I could def use some socks! I will tell you all about everything when we skype. I am so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! πŸ™‚
Tell Meg and Jasers that I am excited for them. And tell baby Julian that he needs to come quick because I want to meet him!!
Um sorry I am running out of time, but Kels I will try and figure out when I am coming home exactly. I don’t know how but I will try!!
I love you all so very very much and am so grateful for you πŸ™‚
Have a wonderful week and I will talk to you in less than a week! See you soon. For true though.
Love always, Sister Emily πŸ™‚
