The past week has been pretty crazy!
Tuesday, Sister Suda and I went on exchanges with Sister Stolworthy and Sister Olsen over in the Columbia zone!! (for whatever reason we were their sister training leaders, I'm not mad :) We really only had that day to do the exchange because 3 days later we were changing missions! I went to Columbia to be with my old companion Sister Stolworthy! And Sister Olsen went to Odenton with Sister Suda! Sister Stolworthy had an incredible time talking about what all has happened since we were companions in October and how our testimonies have changed and deepened and about enduring to the end! :)
Wednesday, we exchanged back and then traveled to the Annapolis zone training! We also organized getting a photo album together to give to President and Sister Christiansen and tell them how much we love them!
After zone training President and Sister Christiansen came with President and Sister Cooke of the DC North Mission. We had lunch with them and an introduction to the DC North mission. It was so incredibly sad to say good bye to the Christiansens. My heart just went out in gratitude for all they have done for me and the other missionaries. They are eternal loved ones!
We also had dinner with this super cool family, the Hosfords. Very fun!
Thursday was the last day we were officially Maryland Baltimore Mission :( so sad.
Friday we woke up and were DC North missionaries!! We went to a less actives home, not much success over there and on our way to our car we were stopped by a muslim man, Kevin. and while we were talking with him a man, Morgan, came over and talked to us too. He had many questions and is searching for the truth. We gave him a Book of Mormon and testified of its truth and he said that is isnt going to sit there and tell us that the Book of Mormon is true, but he is going to read it. And maybe it is true, he doesnt know yet, but hes going to try and find out! SO that was pretty cool. I am happy for him to dicover the truth! We need to go back soon :)
Saturday we had another lesson with Sharita and her girls. they are planning on going to the temple visitors center with us next week! I am pumped for that :)
Sunday we had church and we got a call from sister training leaders in the DC North mission! We found out that their STL system is much different and there are only 2 sisters who are STL's for full proselyting sisters and they arent even companions. So that was funny to find out! we will be going on exchanges with one of those sisters next week!
Fourth of July we had a full non-proselyting day! Very different! we got to stay out until 10:30pm. We spent time with Sister Brown, Sister Sosa, Hermana Tuttle, and Hermana Dahle in Annapolis! Then we went to a recent converts house, Amber, and had fireworks in the road in front of their house. Lots of fun!
Tuesday we met our new mission president! President Johnson and his wife Sister Johnson! They came from the mtc this past friday! He is a great man! He is spirited and teaches with power and authority through the spirit! I am very excited for the changes he is bring to the mission :)
Oh! We also go our iPads yesterday and took forever setting them all up. And will take forever entering everything on the physical areabook to the online areabook. Its going to be an adventure!
Have a great week!
Love you Sister Nakata
