I LOVE MY NEW AREA AND MY NEW
COMPANION AND EVERYTHING! Guys, Eagle River is the greatest. Okay, I know I
said I was going to Chugiak, but I was confused. Chugiak is like a suburb of
Eagle River or something...I'm still not really sure. But we are in Eagle
River. It's BEAUTIFUL here. And the ward is so so so so so amazing. They are so
excited to have us here, and we are excited that THEY are excited. :) We are
working really hard because there really hasn't been a lot of missionary work
done here. Our first sunday here they called a new bishop!!!! Crazy! Lots of
things are happening here. The new bishop seems so awesome, we are really
excited to work with him. Although we just got to know the old bishop and we
liked him too...we had no idea they'd switch it up!
We have already seen miracles!!!
People who haven't opened the door in years to church members
have let us in and have softened their hearts. We are constantly
praying we will find people prepared for us here in this ward. The ward is
completely behind us! What a great feeling! We've had some funny
experiences too this week. We stopped at an old man's house who is
extremely less active in the ward he said he was cutting his grass so we asked
when we could come back and he told us to come back in 20 years. Haha! We
decided we'll come back next week and bring him cookies :) Hopefully the Lord
will soften his heart. :)
Well everyone, I love you all! Have
a great week!
Love, Sister Hallmark :)
