It was a good week! Elder Hale is my new companion which feels so weird because we were in the MTC together so I get flashbacks like every single day of memories I worked so hard to forget about, but nope they are all back now! Haha jk. Elder Hale has spent the past year in Long Island and Connecticut, so it is his first time in the actual city, which is funny because I have spent the past year in only city areas! I enjoyed seeing Elder Hale's reaction to normal city things, like rats in the subway, fights on the street, and loud music all night. It seems like we have had complete opposite experiences in our missions until this point haha.
We are teaching a 9 year old, Jeynaliz, who is the most adorable little thing on the Earth! She is counting down the days until she can be baptized and is just so excited to be a member of the church! She might even love Jesus more than she loves her unicorn stuffed animal, which is saying something! Pray for her and her mom, Angie, that things can go according to plan and they can be baptized together next month!
I found someone on Facebook this week that decided to come to church with us! He said he wants us to help him be baptized! It was a huge miracle and we are so excited to get to know him more! Shoutout to Facebook Finding! It surprisingly works!!! Hopefully, y'all aren't annoyed by all of my Facebook posts yet haha.
A big highlight of my week was transfer day when I got to go to Queens and see old friends!! We don't get to see other missionaries very often because of Covid, so it was a big blessing! Elder Martin (my MTC companion), and Elder Hale and I got to drag our suitcases from Queens to Harlem in the rain. I remember dragging our suitcases with the same group of people, but 1 year ago in Mexico!!! We have all grown a lot since then and it's cool to see the changes we have gone through.
Today for P Day we walked down 5th Ave and walked around NBC Studios. Adele is hosting Saturday Night Live this week so things were pretty crazy in the studio today. Then we went to the 9/11 Memorial and Battery Park to see the Statue of Liberty. Good stuff.
Shoutout to Sister Vanbuskirk for starting the online MTC this week!!! And also Sister Driggs for finishing the MTC and going out into the field!! And also Sister Patton, Elder Post, Ashby, Harline, and all my other friends who are killin it right now all around the world! Israel is about to get so gathered.
