What the Weird! Sister Kitchen and I just got a call from AP Elder Peters and Sister Kitchen is being transferred and I'm getting a new companion :o She's only been out 4 months but Elder Peters said that President Cusick just had some inspiration and yessum. It was a couple of weird emotions because Sister Kitchen and I have had a lot of fun, she's been opening up to me a lot more and she knows the area better then me and we've had some miracles and wow just very surprising. But at the same time I feel the spirit about it that it's what's suppose to happen and I'm grateful, we've learned a lot from each other but I think she is needed elsewhere. Random but wowa.
So, sorry this is going to be a very short email, we're doing emails on the family history computers here at the church and everyone keeps talking and distracting me, ha ha fun and annoying at the same time, arrgggggg :P
Let's see, it's been a weird week, a lot of our appointments keep falling through. So it's felt like a very unproductive week, even our backups didn't work out and we're not allowed to track and we don't have enough miles because we're given a strict limit on them. Just a tad weird but I've learned a lot, how to do better on my part and how to breathe and know that that's just how it goes sometimes and just to laugh, laughing is fantastic and just makes life a lot more entertaining and less miserable :) But I know things are turning around and will be picking up more! I love this ward, they are super supportive of us missionaries and we have splits every Tuesday night and we do basketball or volleyball Friday nights at the church which is a wonderful tool to use in fellow shipping less actives and investigators. Perfect environment that eases them into church which by the way one of our investigators well I don't really know him but he was a former investigator of Sister Kitchen and Anderson's. His name is Miguel and he came to basketball And came to church on Sunday with his daughter, woot!!! He didn't stay for all of church but he at least stayed for all of sacrament :D
Oh and WOOT Brother Decasta came to church!!!!!! We hadn't heard from him this week and we were planning on teaching him L2 but there family never had the time to. So, we saw him Saturday gave him the pamphlet and without us asking he told us he was going to come to church. He stayed for all 3 hours and contributed in gospel principles and from what i heard he did in Priesthood as well. Woot, sadly he's driving back to Texas so we won't see him at least for another 5 months but hopefully in that time he will read the book of mormon and go to church there and what not.
Yesterday, we had a farewell party to big jimmy and little jimmy. Can I just say how much I love this dad and his son?! They are the coolest and little jimmy has autism and it's just so neat to see the dad work with him every sunday and how loving and understanding the ward is. It was really cool because Dad (our dad) wrote in his letter about how he's reading a book recently about autism and asbergers. Anywho random but the farewell party at the Mojica's last night was so much fun, it just felt like home and I love this ward.
We'll again I'm so sorry on how short this email is but will write a better one next Monday and I can't wait to let you know who my new companion is and all the other random stuff too. Much love oh and random scripture, D&C 138:44
Oh and a really cool thought that Brother Kane had in our scripture study (we visit the Kane family once a week, he's a recent convert and we have scripture study with him and his wife.) as he prepares for the temple. Mentioned how Satan wouldn't even listen to the full plan after he wasn't chosen, he didn't even give it a chance to listen to the rest of the plan. Listening is so important and giving others a chance to speak especially if we are upset with someone or are angry. We need to pause and let them speak, ha ha remind me to tell ya'll of the funny story from Sunday.
Ok much loves and hugs, everyone's calling me to come play basketball.
Love LOVE Love!
Sister Tasha C. Bush
