CUTEST LITTLE TOWN AND A NEW COMPANION!!
Well , I said all my goodbyes to the great people of Richfield! (That was sad)
It took about all day
driving, but I finally arrived in Kanab! It’s seriously in the middle of nowhere! There is not even a Wal-Mart…just a little
store. But, we are surrounded by 3
national parks... and it’s BEAUTIFUL! So
we will have some great P-days coming up! Kanab is basically a little tourist town. A
bunch a tour busses come here and everyone is getting ready for the busy summer
season. We cover the entire Kanab Stake- which includes Half of Kanab, then we
have two small towns about 30 minutes away (Glendale and Orderville) Then we
have another small town (Alton) which is an hour away. So we do a ton of driving.
We also have to drive an hour and a half
once a week to Hurricane for district meeting. We will get to see a lot of Utah and Arizona!
Oh and the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary is here, and the Western Movie Museum
so that brings in a lot of people to town..yay!
My new companion is Sister Glaus from Tampa. She is waiting
for her visa because she was actually called to Brazil! It’s funny cause this
is her 2nd transfer and this is only my 3rd so we are both basically new! But its way fun...it keeps things
interesting! We laugh a lot!
The other day we had no appointments (because we don’t know
anybody yet) and it was in the heat, in the middle of the day and we knew there
were probably not many people home...but we tried knocking on random doors. It’s
amazing peoples different points of views. One man we met was just plain crazy.
But a few doors down, we met a really humble man who was from out of town. For
the first time in a while, we talked to someone who knew nothing about our
church!! It was the best! He actually listened to us! He just stood at his door
as we testified of Christ. It was awesome. Unfortunately he is only visiting
here, but we left him with a Book of Mormon and a way to contact the
missionaries where he lives! All I know
is that we planted the seed and we may never know how it turns out. But I know
there is power in sharing testimonies!!!
Kanab had stake conference here Sunday and it was
awesome. Our Mission President was there, the ST George Temple President was there and The President of BYU was there (Kevin Worthen I think?) It was a great meeting centered on Christ.
Well Kanab is the cutest little town and I know there is a
great work to do here. The Lord wants me here for a reason; I’m excited to find
those people who want the gospel in their lives. It’s amazing how much the
members make a difference. They can be really helpful! We NEED them. I’m
looking forward to being here in Kanab, and I have a feeling I will be serving
here for a while. Ha! I LOVE MY JOB!
Thanks for everything! Love ya’ll!
