Hello from Rigby!!

New companion, Sister Yun

Hello Everyone!!

I hope all of you guys have had a great week! Ours has been a crazy, long week but still amazing! So the first part of the week was crazy because we had to do a lot of missionary work, packing, cleaning, and saying good-bye. 

We headed up to Rexburg on Wednesday night to stay the night and then to Idaho Falls Thursday morning to get on the transfer train. We headed to the Rigby Transfer Site and I got my new comp!! Her name is Sister Yun and she is from South Korea! She has been out for 3 months and she is amazing! We are having so much fun together! I am excited to work with her for hopefully these next couple of transfers!

The members here in Rigby are amazing! The first night we were here we went to go visit this member but she did not answer. We went to the next door neighbors and were able to ask them for referrals and their son actually gave us his friends name. We went over there and she invited us right in and we talked with the mom for a little bit. We asked if she wanted a Book of Mormon and she said yes, and that she has always been curious about it. We are hopefully going to go see her this week sometime and teach her about the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. 

On Saturday we had a once in a life time opportunity to hear from 2 of God's chosen Apostles! We were able to hear from Elder D. Todd Christofferson and Elder Ulisses Soares. It was so amazing to receive council and guidance from 2 of God's chosen witnesses. A big thing that I learned from them was to learn to listen and rely on the Holy Ghost! It is so cool because we have been receiving that same guidance from our mission President and at General Conference from the Prophet of God! So amazing! We all need to follow this council. They also told us to become eloquent/ master teachers to help others come closer to Christ. I have been thinking a lot about this and I realized that the way we improve is by trying and then failing but then trying again. I forgot who said that in General Conference but anyways it reminded me of a talk from there. The Spirit was so strong during that meeting and I am so glad that I was able to hear from them!!

Church was great! We get to go to 3 Sacrament Meetings now instead of 2 so that's exciting! I am just trying to get to know the area as quick as possible and get to know everyone here! I love being a missionary so much! It is hard but it is so worth it to be able to find, talk and teach all that are willing to hear our message! I love you all and hope you all have a great week!!

Love,

Sister Lacey
