Easter was great! we went to a really amazing house of a lady in the english ward. Her house is the hugest i've ever been in. She has a white room with all white furniture, pics of jesus and a white baby grand piano! The living room is a jungle motif and the back yard is a huge zoo! they have a macaw, bunnies, bull dogs, and chickens. Then we watched the Easter Video "Because of Him" (mormon.org) on their projector in their movie room. It was amazing. If you haven't seen that video: Go watch it right now. It's a 2 minute video about Jesus Christ and everything that is possible because of Him. We showed it to everyone we met this week and even after 20 times of watching, I cried watching it yesterday, on Easter afternoon. This video changed my life. It truly helped me to realize the hope and peace we have in knowing about the Savior's sacrifice for us. I love Him. He died for us, but more importantly, He lives for us. If He were to come to you and ask Him to change something in your life, or leave something behind in order to follow Him, what would it be. Invite a friend to Church? Be baptized? Break a habit that is keeping you from progressing on His path? Whatever it is- do it. We have the beautiful opportunity to move forward and change and repent because of Him.
Meanwhile- today is transfers and I'M GETTING TRANSFERRED! This is so crazy because I have been in the same area my entire mission. 6 months in Manteca!
But the craziest part is where I'm getting transferred to-
Tracy East
This is just a different area, in the same zone and in the same ward as I've always been in! Everyone is dying laughing but I'm super excited! It's the best of both worlds- I get to stay in the ward I love and see my favorite people but also I get to change things up a little bit. I'm going to be serving with Hermana Cuesta, who I love! I've already been serving with her for two transfers and she's great!!!! She's brand new, I will be her first companion after her trainer (which is called a follow-up trainer) and that means I'll be senior companion! I'm sooo excited!!!!!!
I love you all!
Hermana Hurley
