It has been a very bittersweet week for me. Staying in an area for six months is kinda really hard not gonna lie. It's hard to always come up with ideas to do, it's hard to not get worn out of the area. But the hardest part I have come to find is saying goodbye. There is a love and a bond that lies in missionary work that I know can't be found anywhere else.
Albany truly has became my home in these last six months. I have so much love, respect, and good memories with the people here. It is where I lost myself but wound up founding myself and about who I am and who I want to be. It is the place I figured out the kind of missionary that I want to be. It has been my hardest area by far but has held some of the greatest moments of my mission. God requires a little pressure sometimes in order to turn those simple pebbles into precious stones and I know that God has done just that for me and has transformed me and made me into the person I know that He wants me to be. I owe it all to Albany... I will love this place forever.
I love y'all and miss y'all oh so much!! I hope you have the best week!! Here's to new beginnings, challenges, and adventures ahead:)
Exchanges with Sister Scott looks like this.. I HATE bunk beds and can't sleep very well due to companion shaking the bed alllll night long.. anyways so Sister Scott decided to take matters into her own hands and rearrange my room for me while I sat there casually taking pictures of her doing it. Teamwork.
Sister Huddleston... My woman!! I swear she likes me even though this picture does not seem like it.
So dear little Elder Street didn't even have a graduation due to coming out so early so we decided to take matters into our own hands and throw him a graduation party!! It was glorious!! Gonna miss this district soooo much!!! They have been my saving grace!!
