"My
beloved [family], I write unto you again that ye may know that I am yet alive;
but I write somewhat of that which is grievous." (moroni 9:1)
I have some exciting
but sad news. I'm being transferred. I have absolutely
loved being here in Darien Connecticut for 7 months. I have grown so much here
and have truly come to love the people here. I was so blessed to have the
companions and experiences that I've had here.
But the lord has called me to
move on. And after 7 months of Connecticut I am moving back to New York! I have
been called to serve in Yonkers! I'm a little
nervous but also super excited. Yonkers is also right next to Scarsdale and
they even share a chapel so I will get to work very closely with President and
Sister Teucsher which is super cool!
Sorry, I don't have a
ton of time to write. I have to have everything packed up tonight since
transfers are early tomorrow morning.
But just a spiritual
thought. We got a referral from the elders for this lady. We went and the
lesson was going really well and she had some really awesome questions and then
we taught the first vision about how Joseph Smith was called to be the prophet
to restore the church. Then she just tore into us saying it was impossible for
people to see and talk to God directly and that Joseph isn't mentioned in the
Bible therefore he can't be a prophet and that Jesus Christ talks to us only
though the Holy Ghost and doesn't use prophets any more etc. We quickly brought
the lesson to a close and just bore simple testimonies of the truth of our
message. And the spirit came back for just a second and testified to my heart
and I think to hers as well that Joseph Smith truly is a Prophet of God. Though
she's not the first person I've met to have done this, for some reason the
experience was just so powerful this time. And even though her heart is not
ready. It only made my testimony stronger, that I know Joseph saw God the
father and His Son Jesus Christ. I am so grateful to him and for all he did to
restore Christ's church here again.
I love you all, have a
wonderful week!
Love, Hermana
