Hello my dear family and friends,
Wow! I am going into my 3rd
transfer! The weeks seem to be going faster and faster. This morning was super stressful, well actually
last night was. I could not sleep because I knew at 6:30 am I would find out
who my new companion would be and what my new assignment would be. Well I found
out! I am with Sister Galuvao. She is Polynesian and she is from California. I
don't know details about her because I won't become her companion until Wednesday,
but from what I've heard about Sister Galuvau she's hilarious. I don't have to move apartments so that's nice
and my roomies are staying the same. They are actually my Zone leaders now! It is kind of weird that I will be living in
the same apt as my Zone leaders.
So one of my new assignments is to be the "announcing"
coordinators. You probably don't know what that is but we
are in charge of the announcing after "Music and the Spoken Word" on Sundays.
After the program is finished we have every language represented
meet by the flag pole. They all have signs with their language on it. They all
stand out there and we have a mic and say a little something about welcoming
all the visitors to Temple Square and then offer them a tour in their language. It's
really fun to watch and see. Maybe I'll
take some pictures of it sometime. My
new zone is South 2. I am glad because I
get to be in the South Visitor Center for the summer which will be so nice. The
South VC is our headquarters and where
all the offices are so its convenient:)
Oh, also the departing Sister
missionaries get to go to "Music and the Spoken Word" on their last Sunday
and Lloyd Newell spot lights each of them.
Well being the companion of a departing Sister I got to go too...and President Monson was there again! So I felt
all tingly inside when they announced the Sisters leaving knowing that the Prophet
was looking at me! ( hahah..I know I am silly). I can't believe my traumatic experience in the
MTC when I thought I was never going to see the Prophet!
This Last week we had zone
conference at Pres. Gillettes house! It was way fun! The Gillettes are so warm
and loving! I am glad they are here:) Their house was so homey, but it was one
of those secretly huge houses! ....It was nice to be in a home:)
The Baptism on Saturday was great!
Isaac and Lin Lin are so great! Their story is great!
The Book of Mormon is great:) I wish
I could just sit and read from it for hours! I love it with all my heart! My favorite
lately has been 3 Nephi 17:17-23. This is probably the sweetest message in the
Book of Mormon. I love my savior Jesus Christ. He is such a sweet man. He really
does care for all of us very much.
I am loving the Work! I am loving
the Weather! I am Loving the spirit! I am loving the city! I am loving the
Sisters! I am loving the "friends" on the square (aka guests)!
Anyways life is good! I'm leaving my
trainer so wish me luck!....I mean pray for me;)
-Hurrah For Israel!
Sister Reynders
