Week One of Transfer Seven

Dear Family,

 I love you all so very much!!! I am so blessed to have you on my side!!  Also, Happy Easter! It was an amazing day yesterday!

So, for this week :)

I have been transferred, as you well know. I am in the desert, and covering two wards :) I am covering the Bermuda Dunes Ward, and the Santa Rosa Ward. It is amazing! I love being out here! It feels like home, which is way nice!! The weather is also amazing! People keep telling me, I am so sorry that you are here for the summer. It is going to get really hot. I then remind all of them that I did live in Saudi Arabia. They then tell me that I will be perfectly fine here :) It is really funny :) The wards are really big, and a lot of them are really active. It is really cool to be in a family ward again. It is also really loud to be in a family ward again. Especially the ones that I am in. It is different, but really nice :)

My companion is Sister Kelly. She is amazing! She is 21, and has been on her mission for 6 months. She has been in the same area, with the same companion for the past 6 months. How crazy is that! I don't even know what that would feel like!! She is amazing though! She is from Texas, and has 6 siblings. She is great!! We get along amazing! I love her!! She is also really happy, which is amazing! It is something that I have needed. She also has this amazing Spirit about her. I love being with her! We talk a lot, which is nice, because I can say whatever, and don't have to explain what I mean. It is a very nice thing. :)

The work is going to progress so much! It was really neat to be able to drive to the desert. There was a different Spirit when you drive into it. It is not something  that I would have felt or realized if I wasn't a missionary. The best way I can explain it, is when you go into the temple, or when you walk into a church building. The Spirit is different there. You don't have to question where it is. It is just there. It is an amazing feeling!! I love everything!! It is just amazing to be here! The Lord has so many plans for the area, I can feel it!!

I have come to find out, that it is really good to have
a new pair of eyes in places. Sister Kelly hasn't been able to recognize things, because she has been here so long, that I am able to see, and to help her see. It is amazing!

The Lord really does prepare his areas, and his missionaries! It is amazing the work that is being done!

I love everyone so much! Have a great week!! You are in my prayers!!!

Sister Randall
