So, I have a new companion, Sister Bradley. It is different being a trainer and having a new companion but throughout this week I have seen how good she is and can be for Toxey! I am excited for this new change and have seen already the ways I have become better because I want to be that example of going up to people and talking and putting myself out there.
Sister Bradley is from Helper, Utah and she loves Toxey because she is from a small town so it feels like home to her. From what I have seen thus far the people like her and she really has just jumped right in!
This past week was lots of driving and being out of our area so we were not able to see too many people but it has still been a pretty good week. Yvonne has committed to a baptismal date on September 10th to which we are really excited about. We are hoping having this date in mind and having something to work towards will help her as she is trying to really know for herself that it is all true.
Having a new companion has made me think about when I first got out here and what I was thinking and going through only 3 1/2 months ago, and it is crazy how you just fall in love so quickly with these people and this area, with the lack of decent roads and all. I love Toxey and I am so grateful the Lord has sent me here to start my mission. I am thankful for all the ways my trust and faith in God has been strengthened here on a mission and some days I really don't want to fall asleep, it feels so amazing to be a missionary and I am worried the feeling will leave when I wake up.
I love y'all tons!
