Sister Paige Martin. Syracuse, New York Mission

Hello, I hope you all had a wonderful week.  We finally got snow, so I'm happy! And I talked to a guy from Pakistan. Tuesday: We went over and helped with Sister Baker (one of our inactive members) with food storage. We also found out that somehow her fridge had gotten unplugged for 5 days.  Yikes! So we also cleared that out! It was so much fun I started cracking all these random jokes about the moldy food we had, it was hilarious because none of them made sense or sounded appetizing!     We had to make it fun somehow. We also had an interesting conversation with someone previously taught and his neighbor. It was a good day! Wednesday: So we have not been able to get in contact with our recent concert Effie, which was annoying. So we stopped by her apartment.... and had a great lesson with her! We showed her the Rome Italy temple tour and she loved it! She said wants to go in one eventually!  Thursday: For our service we help the senior center run the bingo, se...

  Hello everyone!  TUESDAY: We had a great lesson with some of our part-member families! They talked about how they were going to study the scriptures together!  WEDNESDAY: We had some good lessons! THURSDAY: We had some great lessons with some other less active members! One of them said she was considering coming back to church soon.  And we are so excited! We also set up service with another returning Member Sister Baker. SATURDAY: We had the best lesson with one of our returning members! We talked with her granddaughter Livvy, who is 14, and it was amazing! She had so many questions about faith and repentance, which was our lesson and the afterlife! She is also a bit confused because she had learned much misinformation from her mother who learned stuff online. But  is still so open! It's awesome!  We also made a new friend named Shawn! SUNDAY: We met somebody who said we could come back! Her name is Renae!   Herman was also at his grandkids! Bu...

  Hellooo Family and Friends, It's been a great week and one with changes! TUESDAY: We went over to one of our returning members houses, Sister Baker. The lesson was supposed to be a 1/2 hour at the longest, but it turned into a very long lesson. We watched a really good talk called return and receive though. We also went to one of our part member families which was amazing!  WEDNESDAY:  We had Transfers! And I am not switching areas but I got a new companion, Sister Ragozzine! Who is the sweetest! We were actually in the MTC together, in the same district though not companions, it has been so fun!  I will miss Sister Etherington!  She finished her mission and went home. THURSDAY:  We met with one of our friends at Dunkin Doughnuts and had a pretty good lesson with her. We also had something cancel that evening and we were about to go knocking but then we saw this lady across the street and we wanted to go talk to her. And it turned into a really good conve...

Happy New Year!                                                      This is a pretty waterfall in Super Cold New York! WEDNESDAY: We met this really awesome lady her name is Angel. Apparently she is familiar with the church but really wants to learn more which is amazing! Sadly she wants to hold off till summer though so we'll see. We also had a good lesson with Brother Allen! Bev couldn't quite make it  but it was still good. THURSDAY:  We had some good lessons with some of our members! We also got to go to service which is always fun! Then as a belated Christmas meal some of our members took us out for lunch. It was very good! FRIDAY: We got to serve! One of our members is an older lady so we helped her dust her living room! It was a lot of fun! She had this case of tiny cups and statues that were so cute! I was scar...
