Hello Hello!

So sorry I have been MIA for the past few weeks its been so crazy busy. Heres a little update. I got transferred from Branham and left my sweet companion Sister Patterson, and I am now serving in Palo Alto with Sister Ferrell. Oddly enough we grew up in the same town and went to the same high school. Palo Alto is the 3rd most expensive zip code in the US and we work with owners, CEOs and managers of Tesla, Facebook and Google. :) Its a great area and we are meeting the coolest people ever. We are seeing so many miracles and we get to help and the Oakland temple open house once a week. Which I LOVE. We work all day at the temple and work as ushers, or run the videos, contact and answer questions. Crazy enough I actually met a girl in the Oakland mission from the Philippines who used to live in the ward Elder Holtry (one of my best friends) served in on his mission. We ended up exchanging story's and taking pictures, what a small world. :) I feel like so much has happened, but I'm not quite sure where to start, but I will do better:) more fun stories to come next week!

Spiritual takeaway:

My companion is new to the mission and we are technically whitewashing which means that we both don't know the area or the people in it, and so we rely on prayer A LOT. We seriously ask the Lord for help in every moment, and we have seen him place people in our path and answer our prayers. It's cool to see how aware God is of each of us, and his children. I am grateful for revelation and the spirit who helps us discern answers to our prayers. I know God lives and talks to us frequently, and if we figure out how to listen we will be blessed. Love you.
