September 6th, 2016 (First week in Pueblo)


Such a crazy week! State fairs, transfers and other such things!

I am now living in Pueblo, we made the Drive up from Sanford last Tuesday and I was pretty sad to leave the San Luis Valley again. But I know that the Lord watches over his Flock no matter where it is so I don't need to worry about it. On the drive up it was such a pretty day! So that was awesome! It is always fun to have those days where is just pretty.

The Colorado State Fair was this past week and our mission had a booth there so we helped organize is and set shifts for the other Sisters and Elders in the Zone to work it. It was so much fun! we talked to so many people we gave out 2-3 boxes of Book of Mormons and like 1,500 pass along cards as well as other material. It was really awesome! Elder Hagman and I worked the fair all day yesterday from 9:30 to 10 and we talked to over 1000 people! It was so much fun and we found like 3 new families that want to take the discussions! It was a ton of fun!

So I think I say this every time that I am transferred but I really don't like packing or unpacking, because it is just well packing and unpacking. But packing is the worst. Anyways I am all unpacked now and moved into the new apartment, so that is nice!

I have been going through the New Testament in my Personal Studies and it has been super fun! I love the scriptures and on my mission over the past year they have truly come to life for me! I have not been thrown in prison or stoned or any of that that the early followers of Christ have had to go through, they paved a road for all of us to walk on and we are living in days where that road needs to be walked on it is there but so many of us chose to walk on much more dangerous paths. We can go looking for problems that we never needed however that doesn't sound very fun to me. But it is up to us individually so we can all chose.

 Love you all and I hope that even on hard days you will look for the small things that make life even better.
