Week 52: The Best is Cumming!

Hello everyone! I got transferred on Tuesday up to Coal Mountain by Cumming Georgia! It's great up here! Things are more spread out than my last area, so there are really pretty fields all over. 

My new companion is Sister Smith :) she is from Payson Utah and has been out for 6 months now. So this is her 4th transfer in the field and I'm her first companion beside her trainer. She is a really hard worker and this is going to be a great transfer! 

It's been a crazy busy week. Transfers are always a bit crazy anyway, but I came in and they had a wedding planned this week and then the couple's baptism next week. So this Saturday I got to go to their wedding. Ricardo y Eloisa are so cute, and they have 2 daughters and a little boy. We are pumped for their baptism this Saturday. 

Also, I got asked to give a talk in sacrament meeting. We are working here with a group soon hopefully to be a branch. So it wasn't too crowded, but it was my first talk in Spanish and was quite nerve wracking but actually went really well. Luckily it was on the plan of salvation and agency, so basically taught a revised version of the lesson ha ha
But this week we have the baptism and lots of lessons to figure out. The miracle of this last week, though, was Luis. The sisters met him about 2 months ago super quick, but never were able to catch him again. We tried at a different time and he was there and told us to come back in two hours. So we came back, taught him the resto, and gave him a book of Mormon. He loved it! He texted how excited he was to read it and learn more from us. It is amazing how God prepares people and guides us to them at the right times. God has his perfect timing, but we still need to do our part and we need to be looking for the opportunities God is giving us. So this week, in your prayers ask for opportunities, and then actively look for them and seek them out, and I promise more opportunities will come than those you seek out. 

Have a wonderful week!

Love, hermana Nielson :D
