No worries.. I still love SNOW!‏

The weather is cold but everything is so beautiful it doesn't even matter! This week was a week of change. My trainer Sister Bennett was transferred to Delaware and I was blessed with a new companion. Her name is Sister Reyes and she might be the easiest person to love on the planet. She is so incredibly sweet. Transfers were pretty fun and I got to see all my fellow missionaries from the MTC. It was a blast!

This week was blizzard after blizzard. Luckily (jk) Sister Reyes, from Las Vegas, and I, from Oregon, have zero experience driving in the snow. You could say we lived the song "Jesus, Take the Wheel" more than a few times this week. But hey! We are still here, right?

 

We were lucky enough to go door to door in the snow and found two new investigators! I actually enjoy tracting a lot more than I thought I would. There was one door in particular that we knocked on that a little boy about 9 answered. His face, which was normal and relaxed, went into pure fear when he saw us on the door step. It was hilarious. He ran and got his dad and I couldn't help it I just started laughing really hard. I told the dad what happened and he started laughing. It was so funny.

 

I can honestly say I was pretty devastated to find none of the people we invited to church came. Even Daniel who was baptized last week wasn't there even though he was supposed to be confirmed in that meeting. After sacrament Daniel and his brother waltzed in and I changed moods completely in the space of 3 seconds. Daniel is officially a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I cannot describe the joy that sentence brings to me. 

 

Taking over an area is not the easiest thing but I have grown a lot in these past 4 days. I made sure to follow the Spirit in everything I did and it all worked out.. so far ;) I know that God loves each of His children perfectly. We all have a divine potential and if we do what we know is right (go to church, read our scriptures, love everyone unconditionally) we will begin to change. We will develop the characteristics of light and when we see Christ at judgement day we will be like him. I know this with all my heart! I know the church is true and testifying of my Savior Jesus Christ brings me more joy than anything I have ever experienced. The more I know the more I want to share. 

 

My new favorite scripture:

Moroni 8:16

16 Behold, I speak with boldness, having ^aauthority from God; and I fear not what man can do; for ^bperfect ^clove ^dcasteth out all fear.

This is 2014 the year of no fear

Let us be faithful

Have a fearless week,

 

much love,

 

Sister Zeller
