Elder Hayden just
completed his 13th transfer and is in his 3rd area. He also just celebrated his 16-month
mark. Getting so close to the home
stretch. The last six month have a
tendency to really go by fast. We as a
family have really been thinking about the trials and opposition we have had
over the course of the last 2 years. It
is interesting as to where you find your blessings sometimes. When Hunter was out, we had significant
trials of a different nature so as they resolved and we were still goo, it was
easier to see the blessings of having a missionary serving. With Elder Hayden and his brother Elder
Bryson being out and gone from our family, the trials have been steady and
strong and don’t seem to resolve themselves as quickly but as they did before
when Hunter was out. However, we are
able to point to small and simple things as the Lord hearing and answering our
prayers. It strengthens my testimony
that Heavenly Father knows us and loves us.
And He will take care of us…in His time.
I love this boy with all my heart.
I miss him even more at times but my heart is very full at how proud and
blessed we are to have him. Enjoy!!
Chapter 70
1. All the
rocks of my mission finished!
2. Wow I
don't know any of these missionaries anymore.
3. There is
so much rain. AND I LOVE IT!
4. Elder
Shakespeare got sick.
Hey everybody! This was a weird week. It was the beginning
of my thirteenth transfer and I still get to be here in Port Charlotte with
Elder Shakespeare! But really weird thing is that most of the missionaries who
I have known throughout the mission finished up this week. So that was weird.
They were my rocks you know? Crazy stuff.
Also when we received our organization for our mission it
was confirmed to me that I do not know any of the missionaries anymore. Maybe
15 or so. The rest I have no idea because we haven't been getting the
organization to tell us who is coming in or leaving so it has been weird. I've
never served near the mission Office to see everyone who comes or goes and now
I don't know them. Doesn't bother me too much though. Just weird to not know
them.
Third, it has been raining basically nonstop for four days.
It is still raining as I write this. It jumps between a constant sprinkles to
pouring to sprinkles again.
The rain coupled with Elder Shakespeare not feeling good has
made this a slow week. But we had a few people come to church and we are
excited to work this week. I will have more pictures next week.
I love you all and I pray for you often! Thanks for the prayers
being sent back. They are felt and witnessed. Love you!
Love,
Elder May
