Transfers and Greenies

Boys and girls wanna hear a true story? Saturday night I was at a real stressful transfer call. There was stress and anxiety over flowing the apartment when the Zone leaders finally called. He said, "a whole lot will change since we called you last." I am staying in Cornwall and I am training!!!!!!!! AHAHAHH!!!!! I am so humbled by this call to be a trainer. At the same time I am so excited to get a new sister! Sister Heninger is leaving and going to the Mission Office so she will be in Montreal. We were both a bit shocked since she has only been here for two transfers but it is all what the Lord wants.

We had a really good week this week. We were both committed to not stress or think about transfer calls so we got busy and got to work. We had some really great lessons with our less active members and recent converts. We were able to visit Loretta twice this week! She is doing so much better! On Thursday when we visited her we had a member with us that she was really close with and after we said the closing prayer she walked us to the door and was like, "thank you for loving me so much." I just felt so happy to know that she does feel our love for her and that we are making a difference in her life. Loretta is making so much progress.

We tried Bison burgers on Monday. We don't like Bison. I don't know what inspired us to buy/try them but we did and it was weird. Then, later on in the week, we made Poutine because most gravies have gluten in them we had to make a gluten free gravy to make our poutine and it tasted legit. So I can make Poutine for you when I get home :) On Saturday we went to kirkland to go to Lasalle to go do service with the stake. We had to wake up at 5:00 to get there on time. It felt like I was working at Life Touch again hahah. But we got to see the beautiful Canadian sunrise. Then we went and collected cans for the food drive; it was really fun and we got to speak French! Sunday we visited so many people so sister Heninger could say bye. It was a really good day. That's basically all that happened this week but it was a really good week! I am grateful that I get to stay in Cornwall for another two transfers! I am so excited for Wednesday to go get my greenie!

 

Love, Sister Gonzalez 

 

Funny moment this week; We went out on two trips to collect food and the second time took longer so everyone was really worried that we were gone for so long so when we came back the Zone leaders were like Hermanas what happened where did you go? Did you go back to Cornwall and take a nap and then come back? hahah it was pretty funny.  Also I was speaking French to this lady and she calls her son and is like "tradusca me mijo por que no le entiendo nada" hahah I felt really bad I was like man my French must be awful! But I was able to speak to her in Spanish which was good.
