Sister Mitzi Gates // Week Twenty-Two

Another week gone already? It's true. The days go by so slow but the weeks go by so fast! Well this week we were busy with 32 other lessons!! That is the most I've ever gotten. That's not counting recent converts or less actives, or members. But people we have contacted on the street, like street contacting and tracting! We were so blessed this week!! So we have one new investigator. Yay! We found him tracting, set a return appointment and came back. He lived by sister missionaries in Florida, and has visited temple square so that was cool! We're going back tonight, so pray it goes well again! His name is Joe.
We seriously walked all around town this week. Sister Tagilala fell a couple times and twisted her ankle, so that's been hard for her. But that didn't stop us from talking to everyone! Haha ALSO! How could I forget this? Some how I joined a choir performance. Not by my own will! The two wards are putting on this Easter productions called The Garden by Michae McLean.  It's actually really good. I just don't know how to sing or read music.... So we'll see how it goes. Everyone there is in like all these musical things and I'm like yeah... I'll just sing watermelon. Hahah this will be one to remember.
This next week I have Zone Conference on Tuesday then after that I'm going on an exchange to the sticks with an awesome sister! So that will be a nice. I thought training a new missionary would be so fun, but it is kind of hard. You just want them to learn and grow so much, but their hearts have to be in it! I have learned how to be patient this week. Ohh man. That is a quality that I guess Heavenly Father wants me to learn real good! But I am grateful for the experience!!

I am so blessed to have so much support and love from family and my friends that are great examples!! I love getting their monthly letters and seeing how they are progressing and developing. I love being a missionary!! Love you all!!




Also, you know Julianne Hough? The actor, and she was on dancing with the star? Well her Sister, Marabeth Poole, is in my ward and we had dinner over at her house and it was amazing!! Perks of living in Nashville!

Also Billy Ray Cyrus lives in my ward boundaries... we just haven't found his house yet! That's next;) 

So we just went to wal mart and we all don't have very much money
left.... And this lady comes up while we were shopping and hands
sister lala a gift certificate with $30.00 it said to the
missionaries!! It was from a member in the other ward. Heavenly Father
is so aware of us, and when we're doing what's right... He is going to
bless us!! I almost started to cry! Tender mercy.
Just had to share that with you all.
