Hey Family!

Well, I assume the most exciting thing is Nate coming home in a week so I can’t really top that... I am just still here doing missionary work I guess... Probably will be forgotten about eventually... haha just kidding! It blows my mind still that Nate is coming home so soon!

Things are doing so well here. First off, it was transfer calls this week and... I am finally in a companionship!!! Woot woot! After 6 months in a trio, I had my first morning with just one companion today. I am also staying in Vaasa again and Sister Harris is still my companion! So we just kicked Sister Mendenhall, our senior companion, out. Haha JK

Eating Nutella on the train :) #happyplace

After this transfer I would of spent 6 months with Sister Harris as a companion #bridesmaidstatus. I am so excited to be staying in Vaasa for longer. I love this place! I am equally grateful to have Sister Harris as a companion again. She honestly is amazing. All of my weaknesses are her strengths, there is not a single bad thing that can be said about her. I feel so blessed!! We are going to have lots of fun, taking on Finland with only 4 months of experience haha! Besides that, it has been a good week.

I am super excited for one of our investigators from Nigeria. He is so cool. I might of mentioned him before. But he came to church again this week and is improving so much in the gospel! It is a great transition to experience.

Something funny happened this week to me- we were helping a member family wash their rugs and at one point we had to walk to re-park our car so we wouldn’t get a ticket. Well, while we were walking a bird totally pooped on my head! My companions could not stop laughing, especially because I just kinda had to leave it there until we finished washing the rugs and could go home haha. Hopefully it wasn’t too noticeable.

Anyway, it was a great week and we are finally getting in with the Finns! We have been talking to so many Finnish women. It is awesome. We had a lot of miracles happen yesterday so I will tell one of them! We had just finished checking up on some potentials and it was 10 minutes before 8 (the time when you can no longer knock on peoples doors) and we had the random thought to go see this girl who was busy during our last appointment. Well, with 3 minutes to spare, she opened the door and totally let us in to teach her more about the book of Mormon! She had read some of it and it turns out that we had her wrong number, which explains why she wouldn’t answer our calls. She is super awesome and was so interested to find out what she needs to do in this life. God always shows us miracles and leads us to the people we need to find!

The church is true! All is well in beautiful Vaasa. I think that is all I have to say... Hope yall have a great week! Love you tons!!!
