And they walked

July 25

     I am now in the flat creek ward, witch is right next to my old area. My new address is Peach Tree City.  It's been a crazy week.  I now live in an apartment instead of a member's basement; it has considerably less spiders in it. 
     On Friday we went to marrow to get our car doors and hood fixed, so we hooked up with the sisters in that area.  They were also having car problems.  After we dropped their car off and got halfway to the church our car shop told us that the parts we needed weren't in yet.  By that point we were almost three miles away with no car.  On top of that Georgia doesn't believe in sidewalks so we were in the bushes and tramping through the grass.  We talked about pioneer day and how long of a walk it was form Georgia to Utah. We are vary blessed to have cars, plains, and other ways to cover long distances.  The sisters in morrow did get their car fixed so when we go up there to actually get it fixed, we won't have to walk everywhere.
    Also this week I made the mistake of telling the elders that I know how to make fudge. In a no ways related subject I am making fudge today.  

Transfer ?

 July 18 2016

This week has been crazy.  Sister Sutton got a cold partway through the week and lost her voice on Wednesday.  On the up side her fever's died down and we were able to work a full day yesterday.  

On Saturday we found out I'm getting transferred this week.  Most of the time new missionaries don't get moved after one transfer but they just redid the mission boundaries and changed three stakes.  I don't know how many wards boundaries they've changed but it was a lot.   I don't know where I'm going yet so don't mail me anything.  I did get the postcard you sent me.  

Pondering

July 11
In the morning we prayed that someone would find us who was looking for answers. At the PTC (peach tree city) parade someone in one of the floats waved and said hi to us. After he got to the end of the parade he came back and found us. He said he was from California and a friend gave him a Book of Mormon that he was reading. He said he grew up Catholic and had questions that he found answers to in the Book of Mormon and wanted to learn more. We gave him a plan of salvation pamphlet and a member that was at the parade with us bore her testimony and invited him to sit with her family on Sunday. We had to give him to the PTC elders because he wasn't in our area. This experience strengthened my testimony of the power of prayer and that God is aware of His children.

In other news my companion has a fever this week so I've been doing a lot of reading.  It also gave me time to write my talk that I had put off until the day before. It was on the parable of the lost sheep.  One of the earlier missionaries left there sketch book so I am working on drawing a oil lamp and a butterfly in the same style as my bat.  I'll send a picture when there done.  One thing I forgot to mention earlier is one of the recent converts is the secretary at a taekwondo dojo.  We had family home evening with her family and her kids did a taekwondo and I did a few karate forms.  It was a lot of fun.   Sister Britney Clark
