We got 3 new miracle investigators, all of whom are friends of members of our ward! They have been sharing the gospel with them, and their friends decided that they were interested in taking lessons from us! So we had some amazing lessons with them, as well as with our other investigators and less-actives.
On Wednesday, we went waaaay out in the middle of nowhere to find some members of our ward that we didn't know. Like, we went to the very end of an unpaved road, many miles out of town, and then went up this steep, bumpy, crazy driveway. Annnd, they weren't even home. Haha. And apparently people hardly ever go out there, because all the cows (of which there were many) couldn't stop staring at us. It was an excellent adventure, and we are glad we didn't get shot or stuck. Haha
We also got to go to Eugene on Tuesday for a dermatology appointment for me! I had some biopsies, just to make sure that I don't have melanoma again, and we should get the results soon. The doctor was super nice and all five of his children have been (or are about to be) sister missionaries! So it was fun to be able to talk to him about that :)
And we ate sushi on Wednesday with a guy who was just baptized in November and an awesome girl who's visiting from BYU! Who is actually the niece of someone that Sister W and I tracted into and loved! So it's all been pretty fun, for sure :)
I cannot believe that this is going to be Sister T's last week. I feel so extremely blessed to get to be her companion--especially her final companion! It is amazing to me that the Lord and President Young trust me enough to let me be the one to kill Sister T. (A phrase used when you're the last companion of someone going home.) Especially since she is a mission legend. She really is an incredible missionary and person and I have learned so much from her! I am so impressed with the impact she has made on me and others, and I love that the Lord knows who we need in our lives to become who He wants us to be.
Church yesterday was SO FULL, because Florence is a really popular vacation place. Especially for Memorial Day weekend, and, from what we hear, all summer long! It's weird to have traffic in such a little town, and to have our ward double overnight. Haha
AND, 7/11 is selling these slurpee straws with mustaches on them. And Sister T really loves mustaches. So J went and bought some for us and the W's, and we all used them with our water bottles during our lesson with him. It was so fun and they make us happy :)
Sister T and I get to hike to the Heceta Head lighthouse today with B (the Young Women's President in our ward) and go to her house for hamburgers! It is going to be so fun, cuz she is a blast, and she also has great wisdom from her own mission, so it will be really great all around.
I hope you have all had such a wonderful week and that this week is just as great, if not better!
I love you all SO MUCH and I appreciate you! Thanks for being awesome! :)
Love,
Sister Partridge
Last week for P-day, we went to the beach and just walked around for a long time. It was beautiful! :)
S moved, and it is sad! We have loved to have her at lessons and she is an excellent person. I love her!
And the cows are from the long road we went on to find no one was home.
