August 11, 2014


 Hey everyone! How's it goin?! I'm doing good! This week was a quick one.. I can't remember much of what we even did! haha! We got transfer calls Saturday night, and I am staying here in this area and my new companion will be Sister Christensen! I met her when I was in my last area and I really like her, so I'm excited! Hopefully she will be my final trainer!! 3 trainers... kind of unheard of! Oh well! We had dinner at a member's home this week and their kids are so cute! We were teaching them about missionary work and I shared my story with them about when I was little, I taught all of the daycare kids "Follow The Prophet" on the bus ride to dance class. They loved that story and kept asking if I have any more stories about when I was little! haha! So President and Sister Heap and their daughter, Emily surprised us Saturday morning at 6:30am by showing up to Morning Sports to play ultimate frisbee with us! It was so fun! Not everyone can say they've played frisbee with their Mission President! Later that day, we had a lesson with Ken who is probably in his late 70's. He is so prepared and we committed him to baptism on August 30th! He lost his wife a few years ago, so we taught him the Plan of Salvation and explained to him that he will have the opportunity to live with his wife for eternity! He loved it! It was a good week! I know that the church is true and that Heavenly Father is so very aware of each and every one of us! He knows of our needs, wants, and desires... he knows us better than we know ourselves!! I feel so blessed to be able to teach people about the gospel every single day! I love it here. I hope everyone is doing well! Read your scriptures and say your prayers DAILY! Love you all!
Love, Sister Shelby Jane Evans
