This week was wild. but here are a few highlights. Monday we were visiting Irene, she said a million times, "You are never here long enough" and man is she right. I hope to stay in Alice Springs forever. So if I ever hear my name not in Alice Springs Sisters on the transfer call I will call President up and put Irene on the phone.. ;) just kidding I know God calls us to the places we are supposed to go to, but I also know God will never want me to leave Alice Springs! Tuesday was so so sad. Sister Starling left.. I bawled. I love her and she really did teach me so many things and she is my second companion that I have killed.. But she had work to do in Adelaide and she is prime marriage age so she needs to go to BYU this fall to find her husband ;) But I was now training Sister sekona, so we went town finding for a little bit and ran into the woman. She is from Annabella, which is in South Australia, which is a long ways away for y'all who don't know. But she was in A...

I am now a senior companion and my new companion is Sister Sekona, Sister starling and sister sekona overlap in the airport for about 20 minutes tomorrow afternoon. Its so sad. Sister Starling and I thought we had a whole extra week together.

And honestly thats the best thing ever, these elders are actually pretty cool and only sometimes very annoying. ;) But it was awesome. I love Alice Springs. We had zone c...

We are emailing tuesday cause of the holidays in the Northern Territory.. yesterday was picnic day. and town was dead. except all the tourists..heaps of them around.. but its funny. i love the holidays here they have heaps of weird ones like beanie day.. ya its a thing.. anyways we met this sweet lady and she is basically Sarah Isch, but from Africa honestly. we walked in and i kind of freaked out because she had just had a baby, they both talk the same and look alike.. weirdest but coolest thing. I have cousin look alikes here in Alice! ;) She is such a sweet lady but we are talking with her and have such a hard time actually teaching her. sister starling and i are studying how to begin teaching so we can teach her better. but her baby is adorable so ill definitely be going around her house when we can ;) We are trying t...
