Week 72 Trick-or-treat, swollen feet, 155 pieces of candy to eat

 FRIENDS AND FAMILY, BROTHERS AND SISTERS, CHILDREN OF GOD, 


Wow wow wow HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! I hope you all had the best and most festive Holiday, ours was definitely eventful. 

We continue to teach our good friend Ray, we talked about the Restoration this week and he said that so far everything that he has heard lines up with his beliefs and the bible. He is superrrrr cool. 

We got to see and talk to lots of amazing people this week which as always I loved!!! I don't have a ton of details for you, but just know that I have felt extremely grateful and humbled for the opportunity to have been able to serve in this area around such amazing people.

A quote I loved from my studies said: 
"Weakness and humility lead to hopefulness, not helplessness." -Scott Swofford
I LOVE THIS!! As y'all know I have been studying a lot about humility and I know that as we turn things over to the Lord and recognize our own shortcomings He makes things into so much more than they ever could have become if they were left just to us. I love God and He is sooooo good to me. 

Mucho Love,
Sister Tams

Other/Funny Stuff:
-Sister Hancock cut herself shaving and ended up with cellulitis...soooo, her foot got very very red and very swollen and we had to go to the E.R. on Halloween night! It was very eventful, we even had to leave Sister Hancock alone for a time. It felt so wrong. 
-Sister Soultz dad sent us 6 more cans of Enchilada sauce as well as 155 pieces of candy. We have been eating wayyyy too much candy and people just keep giving us more. 
-We marked Sister Hancocks redness to measure how much it grew and I turned it into a Ghost....tis the season lol
-We decided to be hippies for Halloween, it was fun
-Per my tradition we got a Jack-o-lantern pizza and it made me very very happy 
-The Hermanas went to MLC this week so we got to be a quad for a day, it was fun:)))
-Chris Jackson fed us dinner, I love him.

  FRIENDS AND FAMILY, BROTHERS AND SISTERS, CHILDREN OF GOD, EVERYTHING happened this week. ALL of it. Here is a highlight reel: -BOB GOT BAPTIZED YESTERDAY!!!! It was an amazing poolside service and lots of great people came to support him. He was glowing and said he felt goosebumps the whole time. I love him so so much and am so so so happy that I got to be apart of it all.  -SISTER BUNKER IS LEAVING. Transfers are today and we found out we will be losing her to Novato. She is a rockstar and will be an STL her ENTIRE MISSION!!! I still cannot believe our dreams came true and that we got to be companions, I read a note that I wrote to her right after the MTC and I addressed it to my future companion. God is good and knew that I needed a comp like her, forever grateful.  -We are getting a cutie named Sis Hancock, she came in with Sister Soultz so I will be ending my last transfer with 2 newish missionaries!!! It should be lots of fun.  -LAST BUT CERTAINTLY NOT LEAST ...

Friends and family, brothers and sisters, children of God,  We are on fire again, literally and figuratively! Last night we got a call that the Hermanas would be coming to stay the night because they were evacuated!! It has been a fun little slumber party and honestly none of us know how long it will last. The ash is worse than it ever has been before, the floor is coated with it. It is the end of the world, but that's okay because the work moves forward!! My zone has been continuing to kill it and we OFFICIALLY hit our high water mark, with 3 baptisms to go!! These Elders and Sisters are incredible and they have been working SO hard! I am SO glad I got to be apart of it all.  Bob is doing really really good and is making his way back to California! Which is THE BEST because his baptism will be on Sunday!!! We are ALL so excited!! SO PLS PRAY THAT THE FIRES DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING.  I have been teaching Sis Soultz the story of the Book of Mormon, because as a recent convert...
