Welcome to my 100567th weekly email :)) this week felt like an eternity with a lot of ups as well as a lot of downs.
When I said goodbye to hna Pitzak, Rogers, and Brooks I really was scared out of my freakin mind. I mean It's not that often that you go decide to live with 3 strangers within a 24 hour notice. Haha. But don't worry, Tuesday was a special day. It was my first REGULAR transfer to a new area IN the mission. I used to think I had transfer PTSD? But if you really think about it haha well it would make sense. My first transfer was to Peru then well instead of receiving transfer calls from the mish president we received them from the prophet telling us to go home :)) well of course the next transfer would be special and I was reassigned to a different mission. Now I made my first transfer to another area without leaving the country or mission. Guys. We're making progress.
Anyways Athens is gorgeous. It is more in the country part of Georgia, and I love it. It rains like it's no tomorrow, and it's nice and humid. :)) my companion is hermana Marriot! She's from Florida, and will finish her mission in October. From the last week, I learned that if she had to eat one thing for the rest of her life it would be bread. I didn't agree with her. But, maybe other people do? Ehhh let me know. Haha
So this week. Well it was definitely an adventure. I have been having a hard time adjusting to all the mission work changes and haha well frankly, just feeling overwhelmed. However, looking back I can now see that there were A TON of small moments where God was leading me.
Coming to Georgia was no coincidence. The morning I received my call, I was looking at my email and I found a letter from my Grandpa. He told me how cool it would be to serve in Georgia. And at the moment, I'm like yeah that's cool but what are the odds. Then that night I was called there. For those of you who don't know, both my grandpa and uncle served here. Well the story gets even crazier, as soon as I found out I was going to Georgia, I looked up the different places I could go. One of the first places that came up on google images was Oconne, Athens. On Wednesday we had to pass by the institute and we saw a clock tower. It was the same clock tower that I saw on google images.
A week before I left on the plane, my aunt called me. In this phone call she told me of a friend she had in Georgia that was ready to receive the missionaries. Well it turns out that she lives in MY area. On Saturday, we were able to call her and she told us that she would love to meet sometime soon.
I know that my Heavenly Father knows me. This mission, my mission, has been so hard, but has allowed me to see God's fingerprints in my life. I know that this is the restored church of Christ. And that Jesus Christ is my savior. :))
Thank you for all your emails,
Have an amazing week!
Love,
Hermana Pulver
