Things have been crazy! haha words
cannot describe. The stress of the area might be getting to Sister
Vasquez too much, so I'm not sure how much longer I'll be with her. I
just want her to be happy and enjoy her mission.
Okay so this week I got to go to Glenwood Springs
for Mission Leader Council. It was so much fun! I got to drive a 2014
Jeep Compass! The elders had to pry me out of that vehicle. I loved it
so much. During the meeting an elder got up and his companion chased
after him, opened the bathroom door, and we could loud and clear hear
him puking. I accidentally made a gagging noise in the middle of the
council. Needless to say, it was disgusting. But funny when he walked
back in. We all giggled. Poor kid. What makes it more funny, his name is
Elder Barfield. hahaha! I hope I'm not the only one that's immature and
thinks it's funny. Later I got to relax in the backseat of the car and
sleep. That was nice. I had a great time with Sister Pfeifer! It was so
great to be with her and away from all the stress of the area for the
day.
We have been going on exchanges. Sister Vasquez loves them because she gets to go and relax a little. That's a good thing.
We have been doing service at the Jeffco Action Center. They provide things for homeless. It's been great.
During Friday planning, we knelt on our knees to know when Bernadine could be ready for baptism. We got the answer of Feb. 9th.
Than we prayed who could come with us and be a great fellowshipper. Joy
Wareham came into our mind. We don't really know her well but we know
without a doubt that it was inspired because she was fabulous!!!!
Saturday
we had a great day! I was with Sister Smith for the day and we taught a
mother and her son who is in his 20's. Bernadine and Ricky Thunderhawk!
Cool name huh. Joy Wareham came with. The mood when we first got there
was pretty bad, but with the help of the inspired member that we
brought, Christ lifted all of Bernadine's sadness off her shoulders. I
invited them both to be baptized on February 9th.
They were excited to follow Jesus Christ. They were suppose to come to
church. We had a ride and everything, but she said she had to go grocery
shopping. :( sad. I was pretty bummed. But next Sunday!
We are getting moved into another home. We are just
too far from our area. The mission doesn't have enough miles to provide
for us. So we are going to a 90 year old lady in the Lakewood ward. We
hear great things about her. My first concern was if I was going to find
her alive...the members said she is super fit. I'm excited to meet this
woman! The McCalls are really sad for us to leave, and we are really
sad to leave them. They have helped us so much and were so much fun!
I'm working on trying to get the Branch to change their monthly Friday evening pot luck to Sunday
Fast Sundays. "Breaking the Fast" It just know it would be more
successful because more people would attend. We need to get this Branch
more united.
I got my hair cut! It's fun. It's not much shorter
at all because I'm trying to get it longer, but It has more layers so it
has more volume and style. woot woot. no more plain Jane Sister Gampe.
I started reading my patriarchal blessing more
intensely. I created a list of "Do's" "Bewares" and "Blessings". I find
it amazing that the Do's list is so much smaller than the Blessings
list. We do so little, but Heavenly Father blesses us so much. I loved
that!
I love you all so much! Happy New Year! Time is going so fast! I don't know where it is going!
