Week 33

"If people never did silly things, nothing intelligent would ever get
done." -Ludwig Wittgenstein

Wow! We had a wonderful week full of miracles! Sister Harris is the
cutest person ever and we have so much fun. She is such a hard worker
and we both love ice cream, so it's a good combination!

So there are some adorable members in our ward who welcomed Sister
Harris in the best way, they threw her a "greenie dinner" where almost
all the food was green! Green waffles, green kiwis, green eggs, and
green juice and milk! And red strawberries, but who's counting that?

:)


We also had a fun time at zone meeting that day, where we learned a lot and I played the piano for my friend Sister Miller to sing. It was really fun.

 We are so cute.

Then later in the week we were tracting and saw some gorgeous skies :)
I love Florida skies and weather, it is so fun.


 Then later we saw a big bird in our retention pool at our apartment complex


It caught a fish and ate it right when we were standing there! It was awesome.
We also went during our lunch hour one day to feed the fish and turtles in the pond our leftover bread. It was neat to see the huge turtles! There was also a giant Koi fish.
Oh Florida wildlife.
Our biggest miracle this week was that we got to go to the "Why I Believe" devotional. And we invited this lady we've been teaching, and SHE CAME! She's like 75 years old and she drove all the way there! It was in Jax West and it was amazing. Then afterwards she got a blessing from the elders! Also I sang a duet of "Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing" with Sister Miller and it was really fun. I got to see Brother Carroll! So fun.
We really just had a great week. I love Sister Harris.
I hope y'all are having a great week too! Love y'all

Week 32

"Humility is a fertile soil where spirituality grows and produces the
fruit of inspiration to know what to do." -Richard G Scott

This week was a whirlwind but it was so fun! So last Monday, I said
goodbye to my companion Sister Gagnon as she went home after serving
her amazing mission! She is doing great I hear, and I am glad she's
home and doing good things.

And now I am training a new missionary straight out of Beaver, Utah:

Sister Harris!!!



She is a miracle worker and I love her so much! She came pre-trained, I'm hardly doing anything. But she's been an amazing sport as we've biked and worked hard the last few days and I just feel like we're best friends already! She has such a sweet spirit and the people we talk to can feel it! She's the best. We had grilled cheeses!


At the trainer meeting they talked with us about how being a trainer is the most important call in the mission and I was a little scared since I am not even halfway out, but I just felt so much peace when we were put together. She said she knew it was me as soon as she saw me! So funny how the spirit works.

She is so much fun to be with and so willing to work hard. I adore her and she is so smart and just AMAZING!

We have biked a lot this week and my goodness it was fun but hard :) she pulled through!

Needless to say, I am a proud momma.



We're working hard and seeing miracles.

What a great week! I'll let y'all know more about her as the weeks go by!

Love,

Sister Caton
