This is the letter we received from Sister Worthington today. Sounds like lots of ups and downs, but she always remains determined to make the best of whatever comes her way! Oh, and her first comment is in response to a question I asked her about the forest fire in New Mexico.
"We are luckily its not heading towards our area. So this week has been crazy!!! So the coolest miracle happened. My companion and I were at dinner at a members house when this bird flew into their window. We went outside and it was hurt. So we went in and they asked me to say the closing prayer. I said the closing prayer and in the prayer i prayed that the bird would be healed. We left and the daughter went outside to check on the bird and the bird got up and flew away. It gave me a testimoney that god loves all his children including his animals he truly does care for them. So my trainer/companion is training and being transferred and Im staying and getting a new companion. I was really really confused cause I thought i would be training but I think i know why god is doing what he is doing. For some reason the releif society presdient HATES missionaries. And shes now involved with Melinda and she wants to teach her herself but thats not allowed only missionaries can teach someone to be baptized. And yesterday my companion and her got into this heated arguement and she told us that were horrible missionaries that are pushy and all this other crap. we wanted to feel bad about it but an hour earlier the stake missionary leader told us that we were incredible missionaries that have changed the area tremendously so we are not going to listen to her. But I know that heavenly father knew that I couldnt handle our rs president and training a new sister at the same time. So i also gained a knowledge that god knows us and knows what we can handle. It was tough week. We diddnt get to teach any investigators. But friday I got your package and it was awesome!!! And dexter sent me a package and he literally spent over a 100 dollars!!!! He sent me vans (shoes) that are literally 50 dollar shoes, 5 bags of gummy candies, a stuff dog, and all these church cds it was awesome of him. We also got a new family in the ward that just joined like 3 months ago and their the cutest family ever!!! They have 2 little boys 2 and 1 years old. and the mom is very pretty and their the nicest people I have ever met so im really really excited to teach them follow up lessons. So thats the week. Tomorrow is transfers Im staying in white rock and getting a new companion so stay tuned. Love you!!!"
