I can't even express in words how great today has been!
Receiving an email or two from Sister Berryman and photos sure has made my week! Here is a little bit of her email:
The first four 1/2 days I was
very home sick and feeling anxiety... I didn't realize how much I loved
my family...I am a lot better now after I spent those
days crying, it is really hard to adjust to the mission life. My comp.
Sister Diehl (deal) is so patient and so amazing though! and I am so
glad I get to work with her. It is her last transfer though which makes
me sad because idk what imma dwith out her...she's been here ever since
November so she knows everyone and the whole area. We have a car so we
don't have to ride bikes. There are four other elders in our ward and
four sisters, including us :) I am in a small town-country area called
Griffin we are in the Griffin ward... and it takes 25min to get to
church. The ward is awesome and they are so caring to us and so helpful. We have knocked on a few doors we have 7 investigators from just this
week. We have Michael who is super close!!! I met him the first day I
got here, we had a lesson with him and I just shared my testimony. The
spirit was soo strong and I totally see him getting baptized but he is
really into his church, and is very committed :/ which is hard...his
wife and him came to linger longer after church with a dinner and she
loved it...he enjoyed it as well and he is in Mosiah in the B.O.M. Yesterday another investigator, Kenny came with
his wife to church who is a recent convert, Kenny brought his niece with
her son. Her name is Stephanie. She stayed for 2nd hr and we sat by
her...and afterwards she poured out her whole life story, I got
emotional because she was talking about her trails and just by praying
to God she knows she'll be okay, her faith is amazing and we are excited
to teacher her too. It was a miracle though because it was her first
time coming and she met us, it was like she was sent to us to help
her...
I am already seeing miracles here!!!
This ward is in great need of
service and love and i am so happy to be
serving them and building this
ward up.
If you can, please send her an up-lifting card or email:
