Welcome to Utah... Where Sister Larsen has to learn SPANISH...FOR
REAL THIS TIME! :)
12/03/12 Heeeelllllloooo!
BIG changes around
here... Sister Larsen will no longer be at the Visitor's Center in St. George!I have been transferred to
BEAVER Utah. Where I will be "Pink-washing" and have to learn
Spanish! I will be in a bi-Lingual area :) My comp is Spanish too. Her name is
Sis Baroques(?) I think that is how you spell it :) I will have a white Christmas!!!! :)
woooohooooo! Just so you know... I will need to find boots today ;) .I’m am
soooooo excited for a new adventure!!! Sooooo I WILL NOT be at the VC anymore
as of now. I just wanted to call you and tell you :) ...but I have to wait. It
will be a nice change ;) It will be my
companion and I and that’s it! :) ... apparently there is A LOT of pigs and
Cows to teach ;) .... and a cheese factory with yummmy ice cream :) I’m going
to be fat... Mexican food and Ice Cream :) hahaha I am not sure how long I will
be out there, but nothing will change as far as mail :)
Sadly.... Sister Anderson and I have 6 new SOLID
investigators that I have been dying to teach allll transfer. Sister A and I
fasted for two particular people this past Sunday and then this morning... they
called us separately and said they are ready to meet with us :D The power of
the Lord is amazing!! But Sister A will have a great time teaching them. I hope
that everything goes well for them :) ... it was reaaaaly sad to say goodbye to
everyone :( I have been here so long I have made some pretty awesome friends!
All the Ward Mission Leaders and Bishops were upset to see me go. It was a good
feeling to know that they saw me as a worker and dedicated. The
"Fields" now has a pretty high standard for missionaries. J
Other big News.... This past Friday we had a miracle
baptism. We made our monthly goal of ONE by 4 hours :) ... We ran into this
family and the dad said....where have you been?!? I have been waiting for you
for two weeks! When are you going to baptize my daughter??? Sister A and I had
no idea what to say we were stunned. We said well we would love to help with
that, when can we start? We Sat down
right then and there and started teaching his daughter... we put her "on
date" that night and then started to teach her every day after that. We
had one week with her and she was baptized! It was soooo cool! JoDee is her
name, she is sooo smart and always kept us on our toes. She asked us questions
like " So Heavenly Father is our spirit dad...Who is Heavenly Fathers
Father?" Or " ooookay so after we are resurrected and become
perfect... What if in Heaven, My dad and I are out hunting and someone accidently
shoots me... will I forever have that hole in my body?" haha It was
sooo funny to hear her thoughts and see how her mind works. Every day we would
go back...she would re-teach us what we taught her the day before. We teach
adults that can’t even do that.
Heavenly Father has so many miracles up his sleeve. It’s
amazing! This transfer has been a tough one for me learning how to find people
and right when I leave... They all come... Lesson of patience? I think so.
I love missionary work!!! <3 <3
Sorry this is short... I don’t have much else to say... time
to go pack J
I can’t wait to tell you all about my new adventures :) I hope it lasts for a good while.
Mom and family... I love youuuuu like the Organic Peppermint
Oreos from Trader Joes we got :) They were goooooood :)
