Hello everyone!
Sorry for not emailing yesterday! I was in Boise picking up my new Greeny or baby as they call it out here! No wonder why I was feeling sick! Yep I am training a new missionary! Weird and intimidating and slightly annoying cause now I will always be a senior companion! Now if things go wrong it is my fault! MAN!!!
But we are beginning under a new training system where we have companion study for 2 hours rather than 1. We have a program of what to study and I really have to teach her alot! It is going to be fun in that way. Lots of learning for both of us I am sure though.
We got transfer calls on Friday and I almost died! I was like what! No way! But I had been feeling earlier in the transfer like I was going to train but brushed it off becuase there are people who have been out longer than me that haven't trained yet. So when we got home that night and I prayed and I was asking for HF to help me love her and be a great trainer to her, I had the impression come to my mind that this will be a challenge but it is what will help me develop qualities that Heavenly Father wants me to develop. Some qualities that I was told that I have in my Patriarchal blessing. Because of this I was very nervous picking her up and wasnt as excited as most people are becuase of the nerves and it was quickly evident to me how this will be a challenge. But it is right and she is a wonderful sweet spirit. I am excited to serve with her.
Sister Krauss comes from a small town called Waterton New York and her dad is in the Army so she calls herself an army bratt. It turns out that I had bought this random picture of someone in an army outfit kneeling with their hands clasped in prayer with an angel or the saviour with his hands on her shoulder. It was just a little 50cent photo but I thought of it last night and I wrote a card thanking Sister Krauss for being my companion and that she isnt just an army bratt but now she is my missionary bratt hehe! She really liked it and said the photo has a deeper meaning cause she said that her brother had died when he was 2 and her mum had always said he is watching out for her.
So back to last week. The baptism went really well and President and Sister Cannon came! I was so glad we set the room up super nice and were really organised for this one hehe! Wesley is the cutest 10 year old ever and really seemed to have got what he was doing. He was really appreciative and just CUTE!
Romiro is getting baptised this Saturday! It is confirmed and he is excited! His little brother Michael who is autistic is getting baptised too even though he doesnt really need to. That is all coming together now. I am so happy for him because teaching him and his family really has been one of the most uplifting and rewarding experiences. I have alot to learn from him!
Sorry that I havent been able to get any letters to the people that I have promised them too. I havent had time to finish my letters or send any of them for about a month so now they are all out of date any way! I stink! But I should be able to get there now that we arent going to the temple all day and having to cut our P-days short for other things.
Last Thursday and Friday we went to the Youth conference here! It was so fun! We got to be the filmographer people.. however you spell that! So we walked around taking videos of people and asking them questions. We took some of Jericho Rd too! They are the coolest people... well except for the one that is single and hit on me even though I am a missionary! Ew! He was gross! I got them to sign my CD which was fun! They are super good live.
Sad story though.. some kids driving home had a huge crash on Thursday night and 3 of them died and the other is still in a critical condition. I am hoping that we got them on our video!
Well I had better get to work!
I love you all and hope you are well!
Sister Huckfeldt
