This week was crazy, long, but really good. It seems like a lot of the
stuff happened forever ago but in reality it was only this past week. I am going
to include everything that I can remember.
On Tuesday we had a Sisters Lunch. All the Sisters in the Mission went to
President Bowen's house and we had a lunch there. It was so nice of the Sister
Bowen to plan the whole thing and it's so nice to see the other sisters in the
mission. I'm sure it will be even better once I'm not so new and know more
people but I still loved it! Definitely a highlight of the week!
On Wednesday we did an unexpected exchange with Sister Grant and Sister
Smack. I went with Sister Smack in her area for the first part of the day and it
was really fun. We did some service at the Zoo. We were there for 3 hours so
Sister Smack and I just talked the whole time as we did the project of managing
the maze. Then we met back up and I went with Sister Grant into my area.The
whole exchange was really fun! Love those Sisters! They are amazing! Sister
Smack went back to ASL today so we're going to miss her but she covers the whole
mission so she'll still be around.
Saturday we did a half day exchange with Sister Jensen and Sister Larrabee
(my MTC comp). It went well and we got some missionary work done! It's a little
nerve-racking when you run your area when your trainer is gone but we got
through the day!
Quick Rant on my companion Sister Jefferies- I love her!!! She is amazing!
She is a great teacher, influence, mom, companion, everything. She goes home on
November and it makes me sad that I won't see her around the mission when we're
transferred. But I have at least 6 more weeks with her so I'm really happy about
that! I'm going to try and learn everything that I possibly can. I feel like I'm
going to cram it all in because I have so much to learn from her because she's
absolutely amazing!!! Love her to death.
This week I have come to love the mission even more. Not that I did not
already but this week something clicked and I have a stronger love for my area,
for the people I am serving, for the Lord, and for the opportunity in serving
Him. It's such a wonderful blessing and I am so grateful to be here in
California!
I think that's all. Until next week!
Love you all and thanks for everything that you have done!
Love,
Sister Clifton
