And now there are four!

It's been a crazy, busy, hectic week! It started off with sister Munford and I traveling to Salem on Tuesday for transfer meeting. At the meeting, we were put into temporary companionships while we waited for our new missionaries. Sister Munford and I were sent to Forest Grove with Sister Daniels, and we proselyted there until Thursday. On Thursday we got our new missionaries! So you know how last week I told you I would be getting a temple square missionary who was either going to be from South Africa or Australia, and sister Munford would be getting a greenie? False. President Samuelian changed his mind, aka the Lord changed His mind, and I got the greenie and sister Munford got Sister Parrish, who is from Australia! Sister Bennion is my new companion and she's from Kansas! You don't here of many missionaries being from Kansas, haha! So now there is four of us living together, and let me tell you it has definitely been an adjustment. Since there's now two companionships in LaPine, sister Munford and I have to split up the area. We have to split our investigators, which stinks because both of us love these people so much. Planning has definitely been the worst. It's been causing a lot of frustration and anger because we're still not completely sure how we're splitting the area. It was getting really bad. But on Sunday, we decided to fast. And it worked! We're all a lot happier and it has been so much easier to push away the anger and frustration. My testimony of fasting has definitely been strengthened.

Miracle of the week! So the four of us were out tracting the other day, and this lady was trying to hook her horse trailer back up to her truck. We went over to see if she needed help, and it turns out that in order to get the trailer back onto the hitch, it needed to be lifted. So the four of us sisters were like "we can lift it" and she did not believe us. So we were like "Carol, do you have faith?" And she was like "I'm not sure." So we told her that we had enough faith for her. She looked at us like we were crazy. But nonetheless, she let us attempt to lift the trailer. The first time we tried, it didn't budge. The second time it moved just barely. And the third time we tried, we were able to lift it just enough to get the hitch under it! When we lifted it the third time, it seriously felt like someone was there lifting it with us! It was amazing! And even better, the lady we were helping was in shock! And guess what! Sister Munford and Parrish are going back over this week to see her!

On Saturday Kyle and Audrey got baptized! It was super awesome. Friday, the ward had a chili cook-off for the Boy Scouts fundraiser. Sister Munford and I got to be the judges for all the chili's. One of the chili's  was squirrel chili! And you know what? It was delicious!

We woke up to snow this morning! Not very much, but still! Snow!

I love you all!

Love,
Sister Hanna
