Sister Ball & Sister Larsen - MTC Companions
Date: Sat, Jun 17, 2017 at 2:13 PMSubject: Almost there!!!
Everyone has been telling us that if you can make it to Sunday you'll be fine!! Well, it's saturday and Sister Larsen and I are both doing great!!!! BTW, I was right!!! Sister Larsen is my companion!!
A few months ago I was stalking Instagram accounts trying to find someone going to Edmonton, I only ever found one sister leaving the same day as me and we are companions!!! I LOVE HER!!! She is so funny and smart and has such a strong desire to serve and learn as much as possible about the life of Christ and everything else related to the gospel!! We get along so well, she has seriously become my best friend here!!!!
In our district we are the only sisters and the only people going to Canada!! All of the elders are going to India (I had no idea there were English speaking missions in india). Our teachers are Brother Croft and Brother Chappell, they are both so awesome!! Along with that we are part of a pilot program for the MTC , PMG and other missionary related things!!! We haven't been to choir yet, because they practice on Sundays and Tuesdays, but we are going to join!!
We've taught our first two investigators and have made two other contacts!!!!! Tanner is our first investigator, I think he is making good progress and we've only taught him once!! Our first lesson went so well I think, the spirit was there and we could really feel God's love for him!!
Our second investigator in Matthew (who is played by Brother Croft). Matthew was an investigator that Brother Croft taught while he was on his mission in Houston Texas. Our lesson with him didn't go as well as with Tanner, but we felt the spirit by the end, and we hope that Matthew recognized it as the spirit also.
With our new pilot program we go out and find our own investigators (most of which are members that are acting, but there are a few that are really investigating the church which is really cool).
Our classroom is in the new building and it is beautiful!!! In every lobby area(which there are at least 4 on every level) has a muial of some scripture stories and we took a district picture in front of the one of Moses parting the red sea!!! They are all so awesome!!!
I LOVE being on my mission and I KNOW that this is where I need to be, and I am so grateful that this is where I need to be because it is amazing!!!
I know that this Gospel is true and it is infinite, nor knowledge of it will continue to grow continuously if we let it!! I know that even with a simple desire to have faith of the things of this Gospel that it will be enough and your faith will grow and become steadfast!!
I LOVE all of you and can't wait to hear from you!!!!
<3/ Sister Ball
