What'd'ya think about that?
Ha ha. We got the call on Monday for transfers and I'm going to Genova on Thursday in the morning. My new companion will be Sorella O'Connor; I don't know her but she is only one transfer ahead of me. I'm excited. I'm sad to leave Milano. I was born in Milano...spiritually/missionar-i-ly speaking. I love Milano, but I'm going to love Genova too!
How are you all? How has the week been?
What's going on for this next week?
----
We have ended this transfer on a good note, in every way. We were at the top of our zone in numbers this transfer....well at least last week we were. That only matters because it reminds us of all the miracles we have seen. We have helped 5 people pick a baptismal date, and then they have been doing the rest. They are progressing to the celestial kingdom by preparing to make the first promise. I am so happy.
We have seen so many miracles. We've worked hard and we've just sat back and watched all of the good things happening.
In the beginning of the transfer, we prayed that we would only find people with real intent, and we did. our friends/investigators are solid BECAUSE they have faith in Jesus Christ and his plan. It's the best.
In all other things, we are leaving Milano on a good note. Sorella Bucco is going to Piacenza, which is close to Milano sort of. It's in the Milano East zone still. We will leave each other as friends and we'll return home as friends. We said we'll go out and do missionary splits when we get home. I'm genuinely glad I had the opportunity to learn and grow with her, I'm happy I know her.

I'm a little sad to leave Milano, but I'm glad to take my experiences and go crazy working hard in the next city. I am not only becoming a different missionary, but a different person, and it is because of Him. I love my Saviour, I love my Father.
This work is sacred. This work is hard. This work is worth it every single second. Every hard second, every joyful second. Every single moment. I never want to go home, and I learned that from Sorella Bucco.
I learned how to love the people from Sorella Hoppe. I learned how to love the work from Sorella Bucco. Companions are.....companions are special. God truly works in mysterious ways.

We have a family that we teach...we don't teach them all together, but we have had lessons with every member and they are so special. I am sad that we have to leave them and miss their progression, but there are more families that await, and we're going to search for them. Every one of us deserves the opportunity to hear this message.
Well I don't have much else to say. I'll send some foto.
I love you all with my whole heart. I work for you, I pray for you. I know we will be together forever.
:)
Love you
Sorella Carlock
