Ten Things I Love About Being a Missionary

Well another week here in Warner Robins! This week we worked to get the area book organized and try and see as many less active members and part member families that we could. A couple adventures from this week, Sister Maher and myself went on a walk the other night and I heard some thing in the bush.  So I went over and looked and there were two baby cats! So I ran home and got a box and a can of tuna and we tried for about a good hour to get them into this box haha. We ended up getting one so we took it and put it on our screened in porch and it was having a fit! We went back to get the other one and we could not get it.  He was way to fast so we headed home defeated and when we got there the mama cat was out side our door and she was mad that we had her baby on our porch.  So we tossed some tuna at her and got her away from the door so we could let the cat out of our porch. So we almost had a cat but by the end of it the only thing we came home with was smelling like tuna! The other adventure for the week wad we went out to Byron a small town in our area, to see some less active members before our dinner. Well we went to about 10 houses and no one was home so we where a little tired of knocking with no answer so we headed back to town. On our way we found a big antique mall so we stopped and went in and walked around and it was a good break.  I found this awesome salt and pepper shakers though hahah! Well this week was my 10-month mark! So here are ten things I love about being a missionary!
1. I love the people of Georgia!
2. I love all of the missionaries that I have met and the friendships we have!
3. I love the scriptures SO much!
4. I love the relationship I have with my Father in Heaven.
5. I love the southern culture! Y'all, the food, waving at ever one, hospitality, the respect.
6. I love the growth that missions give you.
7. I love my nametag! And the chance I have to wear his name on my heart every day!
8. I love my mission president and his wife and all they do for us!
9. I love the love that I have felt as I have served as a missionary
10. I love feeling like I make a difference.

There are so many more things that I love about being here! I am so glad that I am here serving. I would not trade it for the world. I love y'all.  Thank you for all your support and love! I forgot to put my address on here the last couple weeks so here it is: 121 Margie Dr #1502
