April 27, 2015

Welcome to Dalhart, TX Y'All!!!
Hey y'all! Thanks for the emails and pictures!! 
YAY! Congrats Jade and Melody! Evans 2015 <3 

Well, I made it to windy, rainy, stormy Dalhart! I'm not sure what's going on, but the Panhandle of Texas is going crazy today with the weather!  I am serving with Sister Ludwinski and she is from an outlying town outside of Logan, Ut! She has been out 1 month longer than I have, so she'll be hitting her year mark next week! Holy Moly! I really like being her companion! We work and teach well together! Ready for the twist? We are English-speaking missionaries serving in a Spanish area!! So what does that mean? We are teaching ourselves how to teach in Espanol! This is when I really need your help, Madelin and Ila! :) haha!

We have an awesome teaching pool that we are working with right now! S (26 yrs. old) should be getting baptized this Friday, L is a child of a part-member family and is dying to be baptized!, We're teaching a few families (both English and Spanish-speaking), and D (who is in his early 30's). D came to church yesterday and has committed to try to live the Word of Wisdom! He even prayed for the 1st time this week! The work is definitely coming along and I love teaching such humble and teachable people! Ok funny story- we were teaching a super golden investigator named S (in Spanish) and set a baptismal date with him and everything.. then we went back this week with a Spanish-speaking member to translate and clarify everything for us and we found out that he is a less-active member of the church!! No wonder everything just clicked for him!! It's been a great week! 

I hope everything is going well for y'all! I love y'all!
Love, Sister Evans ... or should I say Hermana Evans?
