W9: T2 Baby!

Ahhh I officially made it through and to my 2nd transfer 🤯. With transfers right around the corner I'm almost positive that I'll end up staying here because historically people are in this area for 6 months.. :) Highlights: - Getting to finally watch conference!!! It was INCREDBILE. There are just too many things and they won't fit in this email but plz do yourself a favor and watch a little bit.. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2025/10?lang=eng 🗣 - Found these cool flowers here (since it's now summer time haha) that remind me a lot like bluebonnets from Texas but hang from trees and are a lighter shade 💜 - Got my comp hooked on BANANAS! We even got the lady who checked us out at our lil store to comment on how many we bought 🍌😆 - Got a call from Patrick a guy living in his bus who seems super keen get to meet him later today.. (left our number on a pass along card) - Tender mercies like passing our flat inspection and getting HEAPS of grapefruit and carrots from nice locals in the area - hope do be doing some service in gardens here soon - New creative finding methods to comee.. This week we had a super tender family lesson with Jazz's 6 kids each wanting to say the opening and closing prayer so they each got a turn. Let's just say it was a tad chaotic but they are so sweet. Had a follow up lesson with our family that was baptized the other week but they are already gospel prodigals since they've been doing their own studies so we didn't really have to even teach them that much haha. Other than that we just mainly visited and tried to get to know members and the community. Conference without context 🐳☮️🎹🙏🍒🎁👨‍👩‍👧‍👦👻📖💯🪑💘📣🐑🔄😇🧧🥠🌱🔍 Spiritual Message: Missionary Work and the Atonement(https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/ensign/2001/03/missionary-work-and-the-atonement?lang=eng) I really like this quote I found this week from Holland who said "We believe in angels. We trust in miracles. Why don’t people just flock to the font? Why isn’t the only risk in missionary work that of pneumonia from being soaking wet all day and all night in the baptismal font?" You will have occasion to ask those questions. I have thought about this a great deal. I offer this as my personal feeling. I am convinced that missionary work is not easy because salvation is not a cheap experience. Salvation never was easy. We are The Church of Jesus Christ, this is the truth, and He is our Great Eternal Head. How could we believe it would be easy for us when it was never, ever easy for Him?" I just want to add that even though salvation is free and that God is on our side we still need to be putting in the work to help share the gospel. I truly resonated with this talk shared since I felt like this week was a different then weeks past. In so many ways it was amazing but never was it implicitly "easy" and although we didn't find any new friends yet we are doing our best each day and so can you! I invite you to choose someone this week to love, share, and invite. All the best, https://photos.app.goo.gl/btkDY6hNfKPBTj3Y6 xoxo Sister Talbot ❤️
