February 10, 2014 - Zilina


Ahoj everyone!!
    So this week has been soo tiring. I'm just worn out. We were busy as usual and a few hectic things happened...

    A lot of this week was introducing Sister Baird to Zilina. She met members, she learned about the area and the plans we have for the branch and of course, we worked hard!

    We've gotten lots of numbers this past week so hopefully in the coming week we'll have lots of new investigators. That's one thing our area struggled with in the past is having a teaching pool but Sister Baird is awesome at contacting so we'll be doing fine soon!

   We'll have a Rodina Domaci Večer ( family home evening), RoDoVečko for short. We are really excited for it and we're baking a bunch of sugar cookies to decorate for it also!  This activity was so hard to set a date for because our schedules kept changing like when zone conference was and when it wouldn't interfere with other activities. Luckily it's all set now! (Quick side note: We're having a bake-off with the elders this transfer. I might possibly be known for my cooking ;). I'm pretty confident I'll win. Never mess with a kitchen fairy.)
 
     Another activity we're having is a Storytelling workshop. Our family history class is struggling and so in an effort to get people excited about family history we're having a workshop on stories. It starts with your story and then leads to the stories of your ancestors! Sister Baird and Sister Kane created it a few transfers ago. It's lots of work though getting all of the activities and classes planned and executed!
    We've so many plans for this new transfer and it's going to be so much work but it's worth it! D&C 18:10-"Remember the worth of souls is great in the sight of God".

     I love you all so much and hope you have an amazing week!
S Laskou,
Sestra Whitney Sarah Johnson <3
