"Ya. Yellow looks good on a man." -Sister Hall‏

Family!!!!


Oh my! It looks like you are having so much fun on your trip!
Andrea, tell me alllll about EFY! I am excited to hear!
That party in Idaho looks like it was a blast!! :)
You all are so tan....
mmm fun.


So, GUESS who's getting transfered!! This sista is!! I was not expecting it at all. And because i was not expecting it, I am a little sad to leave. But it's better to be sad to leave than to be saying get me out of here! So I'm ok with it! I am opening Ithica North and I am training!! How fun?? I am so excited! Nervous, yes. but mostly excited :) I hear that there is a WARD there.... and a mall... and normal people. Say Whaaaa?? They send missionaries places like that?? What am I going to do in a ward?! haha. Just kidding. It will be a lot different though being around a lot of members. It will be really fun! And I am so excited to find out who my trainee is on Wednesday! You all should write her letters :) That would be fun!
The district I'm saying goodbye to.
 
This week was so fun though! On Wednesday-Friday, I went on an exchange with Sister Keller in Lake placid! It was so much fun! And during our lunch, I got to see the Olympic stadium and all of that cool stuff! So great. I took lots of pictures. But i was careful to "not look like a tourist" (White Handbook P.26) :).

If sharing the gospel were an Olympic sport, I'd be right there with them.


We had some bomb teaching opportunities on the exchange too! We talked to a lot of cool people, and shared some short things with them, but since it's such a touristy town, not a lot of people we just talked to on the street had much time or were very interested. But we were able to do a church tour with one of their new investigators, and he was so solid! We commited him to baptism and he was so excited and happy about it. It was really cool. We also had some fun tracting experiences. The best lesson took place while tracting that day. Her name was Mary-Jo or something like that, and she was probably in her 40's, and she was pretty heavy set, and was wearing shorts and a bra while we taught her! Other than the outfit (or lack of i should say) and the fact that she pounded a beer while we were teaching her, it was awesome! We taught her about the restoration, and she had a powerful experience during her prayer at the end. So great! And she asked us to come back two days later so we could teach her boyfriend all of what we just said because she knew it was true. It was sweet!

On Friday, we had Zone Training Meeting, and Sister Rasmussen and I gave a killer training on Following up. It was sweet. and so much fun!

OH! and in my new area, Sister Langford will be my sister training leader!!!! How fun?! :) So stoked!

Sister sleepovers are the best!

Well, I hope you all have a fantastic week! You all are the greatest!
Love you bunches :)
Sister Davis :)
