Cambios!

| Me and Sis. Haycock, from Colorado! |
This past week, I have been adjusting to this new transfer with my new companion and some different responsibilities. I am already learning a lot from Sis. Haycock! To me, she is an example of true consecration and love for the people and the Savior. She is very focused and excited about the work. It was hard for her to leave her last area of Kearny and the people she was teaching there, but she has impressed me so much by how involved she has already been with the people here since she got here on Tuesday.
Sis. Haycock has inspired me to want to focus more on teaching families, especially part-member families, in our area. I think that will be really effective if these people will open their doors to us. I also learned from Sis. Willis the importance of constantly contacting new people, our leaders have encouraged us. I am hoping we can find a balance in this as a companionship and expand our teaching pool. We have investigators who are progressing, but it is often hard to see them very often because of their work schedules, so we want to try to figure out some way to keep in contact with them more.

Our investigator named Luis came to Sacrament Meeting yesterday and told us that he changed his work schedule so that now he doesn't have to work on Sundays!!! I was overjoyed because he used to be scared to talk to his boss, but his faith has really grown! We talked to him about the goal being eternal life with his family, and that seems to have had an impact. He will be baptized in March!
I am doing well. I realize more and more that callings from the Lord require a higher level of conversion. I want to put others first more and keep repenting and relying on the Savior.

The Young Women had a Valentine-themed dinner/ dance fundraiser this week and asked us to help! It was really fun and gave Sis. Haycock a chance to meet some of our amazing members!
I love you all! The gospel is so true and it's the only way to happiness!
Love,
