Week 47: Bye President and Sister Bonham

Elle and Sister Leininger on their way
to Come Findout for Yourself.

I can't even begin to express the feelings I have for President and Sister Bonham. Since the day I got off of the plane, they have showed me so much love and support! I remember getting off of the plane and I mean I was nervous and I didn't know what to think or expect. I mean there weren't any Mountains around so what was I supposed to do. But when we made our way over to our luggage they were introducing themselves to all of us and they knew me by name. I knew in that moment that everything was going to be okay and that Heavenly Father really did put me where I needed to be. 

Last night was their final Come See for Yourself, kind of like a Cottage meeting if you know what that is. It was awesome I did so good not to cry until the very end. When I say the very end I mean I was going to say good bye. I am going to see them on Wednesday but Sister Bonham gave me a hug and I just started to cry, darn it! Then I got better and President Bonham turned to me and I could feel his love and it was like I never stopped, oh well. I then remembered Shelby was there and so I didn’t know what to do.  I have gone my entire mission with no one seeing me cry (besides my companion) until last night.  What do I have to hide anymore, HAHA? Sister Schild out investigator that we went with had a really good time,

This last week has been a lot of fun! Getting the Bonham’s going away gift together and grateful for some of our members for helping with that.

I am so grateful that I am going to be able to get to know the Wildings and to be able to love them as much as I have loved the Bohams!

Elle and Sister Moody on exchanges

We had the chance to be able to go on exchanges this last week and I got to be with Sister Moody again! I got to train her at the very beginning of my mission and it was a lot of fun to be able to be with her again. Heavenly Father sends us people when we are least expecting it. I think that He knows me a lot better than I think He does sometime.

I am not done but I have to go.

BLESSINGS!!!

I love being a Missionary!
