I'm going to be a grandma!

(Sister Slade)

So transfers are this week. Sister Brown is staying and she is going to be training! In mission terms, Sister Brown is my daughter because I trained her and now because she's training, I'm going to be a grandma! I am going to Fayetteville and I'm going to be in another trio. My companions are going to be Sister Faleafa and Sister Pierce. I'm sad to be leaving Harrison. There are some really amazing people here and I know I've made some life long relationships.

This week I had the prompting to do something special for someone we're teaching named Alyssa. She's been having a hard time at work and doesn't really have any friends or family nearby to support her. So we heart attacked her door. Some of the hearts had our favorite scriptures and quotes that helped us in our hard times. She called us later that night almost in tears. She said that it had been a really hard day at work and the timing of the heart attack couldn't have been better. On Saturday we went to the Arkansas Grand Canyon with Alyssa and talked about the Book of Mormon for most of the drive. I'm sad that I won't get to see her keep progressing in the gospel.

A lot of other things happened this week, but not much worth writing about. I know that I was in Harrison for specific people and that I'm going to Fayetteville for specific people. The Lord loves all of his children and wants them to hear the gospel and feel his love. It's my job to do all I can to help others feel that love. I love being a missionary!

God is good.
