I am writing this asap today because last week was one of the only weeks in my whole mission I didn't send an email.
This week was awesome!
Some quick updates:
Vanessa is getting baptized on the 12th of September! Please pray for her to be able to reach that goal! She came to her family's sacrament meeting yesterday with her husband and her daughter! It was soo tender!
Sister Stock and I are thriving and have been working HARD this week! We get home and crash every night because we're exhausted! It is great though! I hit my 14 month mark last week and only have 3 months and two weeks left so I'm full sending!
Our friend Sergio is doing really great and so is Melissa! They both have amazing faith and are loving the gospel!
We had follow up training in Oxnard this week and interviews and also exchanges ALL ON THE SAME DAY! It was a crazy day but sooo fun! I went with Sister Lehauli and Sister Stock went with Sister Jacobsen! It was so fun to see missionaries I've served around in the past! ALSO...Last week we went on exchanges with Sister Keele and Sister Gowans!
Funny story: After district council on Friday, we stuck around in Santa Paula to do food share (service)! We packed lunches and were eating them outside in the back parking lot of the church (which is fenced in) with all the sisters. One sister kindly gathered up all the garbage and took it over to the dumpster because we aren't allowed to throw things away in the church. She climbed the little wall surrounding the dumpster and was about to throw the trash in, but ran back with it instead whisper-yelling ,"There's a man in the garbage!" We look over and there is a man peaking out of the dumpster at us. We were all dying laughing (an uncomfortable laugh) and ran inside the church. It was definitely an experience!
I love my mission and never want to leave!
Sister Hadden
