I'm sorry that I haven't been better at emailing. I hope y'all are doing well. We are doing well. I was super excited on Sunday because a lot of our less active members came to church. Our class room was full in Gospel Principles which is a first. I am happy most of the ward is back from their Christmas travels. My ward has mostly young college family's so a lot of them went home for the last few weeks. I am grateful for my mission already. I am learning so much every day. I have met so many incredible people that I absolutely love.
The Lord truly blesses us with love for his children, especially those we serve. Please pray for me to have a better memory, the gift of discernment and be able to speak with the tong of angles. I know the Lord has purposes in sending me here. There are people I feel a connection to and I know that we can learn and grow closer to God through that as we teach, read and discuss the gospel. The Lord has prepared the way for me and I will be fine. As I do my best I will find my brothers and sister whom the Lord has prepared. I know this to be true. I asked an Elder to give me a blessing after our Zone Training Meeting. It gave me a lot of comfort. There is a lot to adjust to when you go on a mission and a lot has happened here and back of in the short time I've been gone so far. When my Grandma Loveless past away, Alma 31:31 helped me a lot.
Sister Anderson is amazing! I am glad we are not being transferred this transfer. I am learning a lot from her and we are working on our communication skills together. We have companion inventor at lest ones a week where we talk openly about each other's straights and our feeling. It's hard but we are learning a lot about each other, becoming better at understanding each other and trusting each other. It is important for us to have trust, respect and love if we want others to listen to us. I think we are doing well. When I got here they pulled the Elders out of the area. A few weeks ago they instructed the Zone Leaders who are over the Single's Ward to be half over are ward as well. It is nice to have that help from them. There are people who connect better with Elders and those who connect better with Sisters. One of the sisters in our District is being transferred. Sense we are going to miss her we are going to go bowling today with her and her companion.
So y'all know, I love letters and photos in the mail and emails. I can email for 1 hour on Monday and can write letters on Monday. To save time I usually print my emails and read them latter. I can read letters every day but can only write on Mondays. So I might be a little slow writing back but I will write back and I love you. thank you for all the love and support. I do use Facebook but can not talk to people out side of my mission on it. I love you!
Sincerely,
Sister Kimberly Galloway
