It was another great
week here in Paso Robles. I absolutely love this area, and all of the people,
and the girls I am serving with. Transfers are next week, and that is
terrifying! None of them can leave me! It is also insanely crazy to think that I
have already almost finished my first transfer in the field. It seems like I
just got here. Time goes way too fast out here! I have learned so much though,
and my Spanish has gotten SO much better. (I still wouldn't even classify it as
good, but it is still better than before.)
Just a picture of me, because I know you guys
just wanted to see my pretty face. Really I just took it to try and get it to
work for mormon.org, but it wouldnt work, so now you guys get to
see it. Lucky you.
One of our
miracles this week was A. She was a contact before I got here, and I had never
really met her. We tried her a couple of times, and she was never home, and
Hermana Martin said that when they had talked to her before, she didn't seem
too interested. However last week, we had had no success in visiting the people
we had planned on seeing, and were at a loss for what to do when Hermana Martin
felt like we should visit her. We were able to share with her a verse from Ether
12, and commit her to reading the rest of the chapter. It was just another time
when Heavenly Father had everything else fall through so we could be in the
right place at the right time.
It is hard for me to
believe that I am going into the last week of my first transfer. I can look
back and see so much progress, especially in my Spanish, but at the same time
it feels like I have only been here for a couple of days. I am so grateful for
Hermana Martin, and all she has taught me and for the great friend she has
become. She is so amazing, and I love
working with her. I am also grateful for the other two Hermanas that we live
with, and how much love and support and fun times I have had and felt with
them. Heavenly Father truly does answer prayers when it comes to
everything.

"Sister Missionaries gone Gangster Rappers" (We were slightly silly
last night. Just a little bit.) There is a whole rap to go with this, but I
don't even remember it. It was during language study so it was all in Spanish.

Our sentiments of the
week. Courtesy of your local sleep deprived missionaries. (Also, the copier in
the church library isn't working. This is where the sign came from. Anyone who
has previously dealt with a church copier will not be surprised.)
Other than that I wish
there was more to report. I absolutely loved the Women's Conference on Saturday. It made me so excited for General Conference
this weekend. We are going to be talking to a lot of people about conference
this week.
We saw a lot of little
miracles this week, and it is so great to see the hand of God in every step we
take. We were able to be guided to a few people who truly needed us right at
that time. Such a great thing.
Other than that I wish
there was more to write. I promise I will be better at this later. Hope
everyone has a great week!
Hermana Miller
