Well, I will get right to the moment you all have been waiting for, transfer news! Sister Lee and I are both staying in Melton! :) I am excited to spend another transfer with her and look forward to not having to completely start over yet again with another companion. We are going to have heaps of fun together for the next six weeks!
Last p-day was fun, we went to Werribee for sister's p-day and played paint twister, which turned into a paint war haha!
I can't remember if I mentioned anything about our investigator Gloria earlier, but this week was really sad because she texted us to let us know that she moved back to Adelaide for a couple months to be with her family while she has her baby. I just hope I will still be here when she gets back.
This weekend we had stake conference. It was really good and we heard lots of really good talks. My favorite was by our stake president, President Pardon, who talked about the scripture 2 Nephi 2:25 "...men are that they might have joy". I have definitely been trying to implement this scripture in my life over the past four and a half months. Missionary work is not always fun. It can be hard to want to keep knocking doors for an hour or more each day and have people constantly shutting the door in your face. It can be discouraging when investigators drop you or move. It can be hard when all your appointments in a day fall through and you feel like you have nowhere to go and noone to see, BUT if you can find ways to enjoy yourself and the work that you are doing it can be the best time ever! We have the choice to decide if we will get discouraged or if we will brush it off, laugh it off, and keep moving, whistling along the way.
I hope you all have a great week and remember to choose to be happy in every situation.
Love ya heaps!
Sister Bingham
2. Melton isn't too far from the city, you can see the Melbourne skyline from the highway to Werribee.
