Hi everyone! Happy Monday!!
This week was so
great! First off...we had our transfer call on Saturday and I found out I will
be staying in the Gainesville 2nd ward with Sister Pennock! We are super
excited we get another 6 weeks together :)
our group for the temple trip!! Such a fun time :)
The highlight of this week was being able to go
down to Orlando to go to the temple! We get to go at our halfway point and
right before we go home and it was awesome. I got to see all the sisters that
came out with me and say goodbye to some friends that are headed home. We had
about 30 missionaries in the session along with our mission President and his
wife and a few senior couples and it was just such an amazing experience. I've
missed the temple sooo much oh my goodness. It was so great to be there again
and feel the spirit so strongly! One tender mercy...I was able to see 2 of my
grandpa Frank's paintings inside the temple. They were two I had never seen
before and I wasn't expecting them! It was nice to have that little piece of
home with me all the way in Florida!

We had a really awesome scripture class this
week at the church and our investigator Audrey came!! There was another
nonmember there that was asking a lot of questions and Audrey was able to share
her testimony and answered the lady's questions a few times. It was awesome.
Audrey also came to our Relief Society pool party Thursday night. She was able
to meet a lot of ladies from the ward and socialize with everyone. She was at
church again yesterday and stayed the whole time. She came to the ward potluck
after and seemed right at home. She is so amazing like I can't even describe
it. She is set to be baptized the end of July and we can't wait!! We love her
so much!
Well that's about it for updates this week. The
work is really moving along here in Gainesville! I'm excited for another
transfer here :)
I love y'all! Have a blessed week<33

I love this book!!!
So one day we were out tracting in this tiny country town called Newberry! We had a goal to invite someone to baptism on the side of the road so we made a point to talk to everyone. There were these 2 thug looking guys and sister p was going in for the kill, I was a little apprehensive, but we were determined! We started talking to them and right away they brought up polygamy, and other untrue rumors that people spread about Mormons. After we showed them a short video the guy asked: "You got a Bo?" We were very confused so we asked him to repeat his question and then he said, "You know a bo. A boo? You gotta
bae??" When we told him that we did not have boyfriends he then
asked if we were nuns. Lol! They weren't very nice so we probably won't be
going back....gotta love the kooks out in Newberry!
