Week 21-TRANSFERS

Hello everyone!!

This week wasn't super eventful other than transfers!!  Lots and lots has changed in the ZHM this transfer. Thursday afternoon in the area I got a phone call from President Judd.  He asked me if I would be a trainer for a new sister coming in from the MTC.  She's from Madagascar and will be the first sister from her country to serve in Zimbabwe!  So I'm staying here in Chikanga to train this transfer, and saying I am terrified would be an understatement.  When Sister Judd called me a few days later she said "take all the best things from Layton, Canada, and Zimbabwe."  So I'll try to do that.

While I was in the MTC, Ether 12:27 turned into a little bit of a joke in my district because we all seemed to use it so much.  But yesterday in church when someone read that scripture it really hit me.  Every weakness that I have was given to me by my Savior Jesus Christ.  Seems kind if ironic right?  But he has done that so that we can learn to rely on him.  In this scripture the Savior is saying hey, everyone has weaknesses, but my grace IS, not might be, not is only for some people, but my grace IS SUFFICIENT for ALL men.  All you need to do is come to me in humility and with faith.  Then I WILL, not might, but I WILL turn your weaknesses into strengths.  Such a powerful promise!  

Going into this transfer I definitely feel very aware of all of my weaknesses.  But I have no doubt that as I rely on my Savior Jesus Christ he will help me.  And he will give me the strength I need to accomplish what he has called me to do.

Speaking of the MTC.....Sister Treese and I are living together for another transfer!!  Could not be more excited for that:)

I love you all so much and love hearing from you!

Hahaha I am really struggling with the picture thing at the moment.  I'm not sure where they all went!
