Dearest family!

 

GREAT news! Hermana Chambers and I are companions again!!!!!! What a huge blessing!! We were so so excited when we found out. President Wilson even got choked up when he announced our names at transfer meeting because he knew how bad we wanted to be companions again. We have been begging him to put us back together since we were companions before. The Lord must really love us. I just feel so blessed! We are serving in Chesterfield. So I am in the first ward that I served in, but just a different area. The work here is AMAZING. There is so much work here. We are so busy and it is so great! There were a couple of days last week where I was just so tired at the end of the day because we just worked so hard all day. It is so cool to see how Hermana Chambers and I have grown since we were companions. It’s hard to believe it’s been almost a year since we were companions before. There are just so many people here prepared to hear the gospel.

 

We had a really cool experience on Sunday. We were about to walk into this trailer park when this little Hispanic man pulled up and said, "Sisters!" We started asking him if he was a member and he said that he wasn't, but that he had some friends that were members. He said that his wife died 3 years ago and he has just felt so much guilt ever since and he doesn't really know what to do about it. He just said that there was always something about our church, but he wasn't sure what it was. He asked for the address to the church so of course we gave it to him! We tried to set up an appointment with him, but he said that he wants to come to church soon, but we'll see if we can change that. It was just a crazy the chain of events that led us to that moment. We weren't even planning to be arriving at that trailer park at that time, but everything worked out so perfectly so that we arrived there at that moment when he was pulling out. And it turns out he doesn't even live there. Nothing even really worked out in that trailer park, but we just knew that we were supposed to be there at that time so that we could meet him. The Lord has been so good to us!

 

I'm still trying to get to know all of the people here, but they are all really great. And it was really fun to be back in the Chesterfield Spanish ward again. Its crazy how much can change in just one year. I am really happy to be back here serving with Hermana Chambers. Lots of good times ahead! I hope you all have a wonderful week! I love you!

 

And now I close mine epistle. I am Hermana Horton.
