Victoria! Called to Serve in West Virginia: Welcome to Crazyville!

This is how my mom and I feel:

🤤

Haha! Going home is a weird thing haha. One second I'm like "I am going to be a missionary FOREVER!" And the next I'm like, "I JUST WANT TO GO HOME!" I just don't know what to do with myself any more haha.

Anyways, on to more important matters. The work has been SO good! I love every Second! I'll give you the update on this passed week.

Monday!!! Coolest day ever! We went to a members home because she was going to help me with some new dresses that were given to me. We walk in and in her house is three families from Mexico! They are all members of the Church but on their vacation through America, their car broke down. They found the nearest church building and the members that they are living with are the only ones in the ward who speak fluent Spanish and have enough bedrooms! The Lord truly provides for all. Those families have the STRONGEST testimony of the church! I love and admire them so much!

Tuesday: We taught Everett again! He is progressing so fast and is praying about a date to be baptized!

Wednesday: So we are kind of done with tracting apartments because ALL of the students are gone! We just make it fun though. Whatever letter the apartment is, we will say random words that start with that same letter. For example, if the letter is B we go, "Bunny! Bubble! Blind! Because! Ben! Bet! Bat!" Haha it is so funny because we say the most random things. But anyways, we are also finding more effective ways to find people. Lately we've been walking around main street and going to the farmers market and there is a ton more people outside! It is so fun.

Friday: Sister Cook texted us and said that there is a non member who is moving that needs our help. She told us that she has five kids (blended family) and that they are moving on Monday. We went over there asap and it was so fun because there were a ton of kids and we got to paint! (Anyone who is close to me knows that those are some of my favorite things) It was such a blast! The girls name is Autumn and she is my best friend haha.

Saturday: We helped Autumn again! This time she told us about her brother that had passed away from a car accident. The interesting thing is, is that her little boy has never met her brother but will tell her stories and facts even though they had never met. So we told Autumn about how we lived with Heavenly Father before we came to Earth. She said that it makes so much sense and she started to cry! I LOVE teaching others about the Plan of Salvation because it helps them feel the Spirit and feel so much comfort.

Saturday: We had dinner with Sister Cooks and Autumns family. After dinner we taught Autumn the rest of the Plan of Salvation and she loves it! She said that it makes sense that we have other chances to learn about Christ and that we get to live with families forever! It was such a great teaching opportunity! After that we bounced over to the family ward where they had a pot-luck in celebration of Pioneer Day so that is where most of the pictures come from haha.
