old southern cutie lady

 holy forgive me its actually been too long since ive written an email... I swore I was gonna be better at writing emails than Jiggy was but idk if I have been heh... 


ok updateeee 
We got transfer news this past Wednesday! I officially had to leave Cedar Falls and my homegirl Sister Johnson πŸ™‚‍↕️ left it in good hands tho☝️and very exciting things happening over there, we were able to get two investigators on date for baptism by the time i left😈 super mega hype. 

ok and my new area?! : Martinez, GEORGIA πŸ˜›πŸ˜œπŸ€‘ pronounced (martin - ehz) ayy Rachel you guessed it right i am now serving in georgia ☝️πŸ€“ holy hot mama tho it feels like im walking in steam its so humid hottie - I aint never sweat outta my knees until this past week πŸ™‰ we good tho the area is fire, the ward is even more fire, and my new comp Sister Thayer is double fire. I got called to be a "sister training leader" πŸ€“ this transfer so im extra grateful to have such a good stl trainer - also the sister here before me was "sister Seifert" which im pretty sure multiple ancient temple workers have called me before so that def confuses the ward but its fine we chillin. 

the people down here are already more southern, lol Sunday school yesterday in the new ward was a lotta fun - some ancient guy introduced himself as Brother Walborn and made sure to clarify its walBORN not walBURN because "babies are born they dont burn" πŸ€“πŸ€“ and then some old southern cutie lady ranted for 15 minutes about the new David and Goliath movie it was cutie :)

heres some pictures from the last however long to get you guys back up to speed on the mission πŸ˜œπŸ€‘ love youuuu

also happy father's day papa sorry I forgot to call last night heh...

also send prayers we're getting a new mission president like tomorrow?!?!?!

also congrats on the upcoming wedding Jiggy and Emory 😻😻 cant wait to see the pictures πŸ™‰πŸ™‰πŸ™‰πŸ™‰πŸ€‘πŸ™

peace in knowing you are living the life that God has planned for you

 hola friends and family πŸ˜ƒ 


Made it to my third transfer yayaya! Officially outta training πŸ‘ πŸ™Œ  We still have extra training time everyday tho because my new companion is a greenie πŸ€‘ her name is Sister Johnson she's a queen, pro missionary already. Also shes a tall queen, got me looking even shorter than I already am 🀧 we have good times tho so I forgive her 😌 

Last transfer was super hype, definitely gonna miss cutie Sister Price but we're having a good time so far - this is second transfer here in Cedar Falls Simpsonville we have actually the best ward ever... it feels very Utah vibe, prolly cause everyone is like 32 with four kids each. There's a constant flow of baby noise in our church meetings :)

But ya mission life is lit - we had some BARS meetings this past weekend because it was Stake Conference, got to hear from area seventy Elder Boddain? (i would look up how to spell it but thats a LOTTA work) he was awesome tho, talked a lot about having greater love as disciples of Christ. A line I loved from conference was "the only surrender that leads to victory is when we surrender our will to God's" and I know with all my heart that its true! There is peace in knowing you are living the life that God has planned for you - fighting against it leaves us constantly searching for something more, and that aint no way to live ☝️

Anyway, hope everyone's doing well (I hear gas prices are going up again) (sucks for you guys, all my gas is paid forπŸ€‘) haha love you all so much :3

also let's start a tally, how many of my siblings will get engaged as soon as I leave on my mission: II (CONGRATS ASHLEY AND JOHNNY😻😻)
