Angels



Everyone!!!

Last Monday night we got a call from the AP's saying we were getting a new missionary with us for the last week of the transfer so on Tuesday morning we went and picked her up from the airport! Sister Coleman is from St. Paul Alberta!!! She is also the funniest person. Every sentence that comes out of her mouth makes me LAUGH. When we first picked her up we asked what she wanted to eat for lunch and she responded by saying "anything editable." I liked that she also calls me her francophone hippy and thinks I'm not a real Albertan because I eat kale and tofu.. hahahaha

Having her here this last week has been very nice but it has also been one of the hardest weeks. Training my amazing comp who just got out of the online MTC, while trying to help my other soa be happy. If there's one thing I've learned it is that you can't do things alone!!! God blessed me with helping hearts all week. I am surrounded by the BEST sister missionaries.

Elder Holland said, "My beloved brothers and sisters, I testify of angels, both the heavenly and the mortal kind. In doing so I am testifying that God never leaves us alone, never leaves us unaided in the challenges that we face. “[N]or will he, so long as time shall last, or the earth shall stand, or there shall be one man [or woman or child] upon the face thereof to be saved.” On occasions, global or personal, we may feel we are distanced from God, shut out from heaven, lost, alone in dark and dreary places. Often enough that distress can be of our own making, but even then the Father of us all is watching and assisting. And always there are those angels who come and go all around us, seen and unseen, known and unknown, mortal and immortal." I FELT THIS SO MUCH THIS WEEK. I know this is true. I can testify that it is true and that He will never ever leave us unaided in the challenges we face. He provides a way, and most often it is through those around us. 

I LOVE YOU ALL!!!! Please keep smiling and enjoying the sunshine. God is so good and because of that, we have every reason to smile.
