Hello!
Well, this week was another week full of miracles and busy times. Transfers happened on Tuesday, and my companion, Sister McArthur got transferred to another Zone and my new companion is Sister Medina - she's wonderful! We're going to have a great transfer. Today is her Birthday, and while we were outside washing the car 6 little puppies ran up to us, so we got to play with some adorable puppies to start off her birthday. It was pretty magical.

Sister Medina came up on Tuesday evening, and then we worked together for a few hours, and then the next morning we left to McAllen for MLC and didn't get back until Friday, so most of our first week was spend in McAllen. We worked really hard in the last few days we had here, though, and had cool things happen. On Saturday night, we were walking by the house of some people who we had briefly talked to before, and they had just arrived from the store and were taking in groceries, so we helped them. They invited us in and we talked for a while, and the mother figure is this sweet woman who's 70 years old and has 10 children and 42 grandchildren and 7 great-grandchildren and now is taking care of 4 sweet little kids between the ages of 8-13. We invited them to church the next day and they came! The only sad thing was that yesterday was a special regional conference and the kids were a little bored, ha ha. but they're really cool so we'll see what happens from here :)
The regional conference was really really good - it was Elder Oaks, Sister Reeves, Lynn G Robbins, and someone else. They talked a lot about repentance and change, and also about simplicity and living within our means. Good stuff :)
Sister Ingleby who lives with us is training now, so we have a greenie living in our house now, and it's really fun to think back to what it was like and how recently it feels like I was there. Pretty crazy how fast time goes.
Well I hope your have a phenomenal week! Love you all!
