This week wasn't the best. We struggled to meet with our appointments and to find back-ups the entire week. We weren't very effective in our finding efforts either. It didn't help that we were short a couple of days either, but we did our best, and will pray that the Lord will help us have more success this week. We do have a few great new investigators that we met recently and were able to teach this week, so there is something good that happened. I am trying to improve each day and think of ways that we can change our approach to be more effective. I am learning that we simply have to trust in the Lord and do our very best even when things don't go as planned.
I was happy though not entirely surprised to hear that Sister Bennie would be serving together again this transfer. The new transfer starts on Wednesday (my 4th!) I am glad to be serving with her, she is a great missionary and a wonderful daughter of God; I love her! We are still getting along great and will be happy to serve together as long as possible.
So I heard that we will be having Zone Conference in St. Lucia this transfer. That will be a good experience, though I was excited to go see Barbados and to be with all of the Sisters there. I'm sure it will be nice to even see two other sisters though, as well as Sister Mehr and President Mehr.
We were really sad not to have been able to watch any of Conference yesterday due to not having internet connection. We think that the big storm on Saturday night may have knocked out the internet in the area. I guess the Elders were able to watch some of it in Kingstown, but Sister Bennie and I didn't know they got the internet back on, so we hope to have the opportunity to see it later on. We were really looking forward to watching Conference. It is one of my favorite times of year to hear the words of the prophet and apostles. I am grateful to have seen the Saturday sessions, however, and will look forward to getting the Liahona with the talks if nothing else.
I love you lots!
Sister Bratt
P.S. - HAPPY BIRTHDAY ON FRIDAY MEGHAN!! LOVE YA!
