One Year Older and Wiser Too...I Hope!

Hey yall!

First off....watch this legit video! Sooo funny! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckLqfX62u_I

What a week! I feel like time is going sooo FAST...and slow all at the same time! A YEAR! A year has passed and it has been the greatest year of my life! I cant believe i only have 6 months left! Look out...here comes Sister Durtschi!

This was one of the best weeks of my mission! We had soooo much fun, yet had sooo much to do! Thats one of the greatest things i've learned so far is you can be super packed with stuff to do and have no time to do it, yet somehow, you accomplish it all! The Lord really does provide a way with everything we all do!

We saw Kyah this week and oh man is she just the best! I absolutely love her! She came to church Sunday! Her and her kids are just the greatest!

When Sister Demo and I were together we tracted into a lady who we offered her service. Now this lady is like the sweetest old grandma yall will ever meet! So we have gone over the last couple weeks to vacuum her floors and just keep her company!

We started teaching a 90 year old man named Thomas! He's an excommunicated member so we dont really have stewardship over him, but we have permission to keep teaching him. We go over and just hear war stories for days, so its been fun to have a history class and tie it into the history of the gospel. :)

We also started a scripture study class this week. I spent my Tuesday night calling every single person on our ward record...BUT no one showed up. NEVERTHELESS! That doesnt get Sister Durtschi down! We have every Wednesday till i leave (and hopefully still continues) to get someone to the class! It can be done and will be done!

We helped one of our favoritest families ever moved this week:( sad day! They were such a help to all missionaries that have ever served here in the Delta and they will be very missed!

Yesterday was SISTER O'CONNORS BIRTHDAY! I stayed up all night decorating the house and making breakfast. Had a great day at church, where she had to speak, and then we went to see Thomas with the bishop's wife and daughter, and then had dinner at the Turley's:) A great birthday if you ask me:)

Love yall sooo much! Have a great week! Miss yall!
