Hermana Woerner: The 18 Month Tour.

Hello! So it has been a great week. Tuesday we went as usual to Special Angels, and I hung out with this really cool person named Heather. She was doing a puzzle and I helped her. Then we were invited to come back on Friday for their Thanksgiving event. Wednesday we went and visited this woman named Celeste. She is english but she is only assigned Elders in her area, and her husband is never home, and so Hermana Masters and I go (and also, her dad only speaks spanish, so maybe we can teach him too) Although, she is already baptized, she is still learning and has stopped coming to church. But we got to go over there, and her 3 year old tore my tag off, ran, and then threw it during the lesson so that was fun.  Thursday was Zone Conference, so we went and spent a good 8 hours at the stake center, and just went over training and safety and made goals as a zone to each get one baptism per companionship (Which, was already technically done for us, since Ana was getting baptized Satur

Egg nog has reached the shelves of Spring Texas' grocery stores.                                      11/13/2017 So, Last week for service we got to do this program thing instead of our normal service, and it was called Saving Smiles, and a bunch of kids came in and got free dental check up things. I did a bunch of paper work, but all was good. It was fun.  We have our investigator Anas baptism on Saturday!!! I am so excited! She has been waiting awhile and it is finally Saturday. Her son Jason was going to get baptized too, but he changed his mind. He said he wanted to know a little more first. We will continue working on him though. (He is 11). Then his sister started praying about baptism, even when we didn't talk about it during the lesson. It was great. We also have an investigator Nancy, who after reading the first 6 chapters of the Book of Mormon and praying about it was like "I know it is true. I just know it. I know it will change my life." and she is ju

Hello!                                                                                                                                                            11/06/17 How have you guys been? How was your Halloween? I hope you guys were able to do awesome things throughout the week!   Me outside on Halloween with Spoopy decorations This week was pretty good. We got fed SO MUCH. We again had a food appointment everyday. Even on days we did not have one planned. This week I had Mexican hamburgers (which, were magic might I add), cheese enchiladas, chicken tacos, chicken taco kit thing, rice, beans, sopas, regular chicken and yeah...It was super great. I am sure I had more, but they all mix together. I learned how to make the sopas. And, have an idea how to make the hamburgers.  Yesterday we had a broadcast from some general authorities, that was apparently for the south west. I understood minimal of it, but it is fine lol. We have set a baptismal date for this woman na

Hey!                                                                                                                                                             10/30/17 Sorry everyone, I know it has definitely been a hot minute. My last P-day was almost 2 weeks ago because I spent last Wednesday traveling to Houston! So that being said, I am safe here, and done with my time at the MTC. It was an interesting time, and I took a load of pictures. It was strange, because most people left on Monday, then the majority of the people left left on Tuesday, then finally, it was me and Hermana Gardels on Wednesday. It was cool though because I got to go to a class who had just arrived to the MTC. It was a nice experience. We also got to go around and look up all the stories to the murals in our building. It was a good time. Nevertheless, I woke up at 2:30 the next morning and headed on over to Texas. I landed, and they let us all take a nap in the Mission building, in the church pews. It was

 I received a text message from a random stranger with her picture at the airport.  I texted her back thank you, but I'm not sure my words could ever convey how much joy that one picture gave me. I received this e-mail when Stephanie left the MTC and traveled to Texas.  I have a picture to go along with the e-mail. 25 October 2017 Dear  Sister Pattee , Today your daughter arrived in the Texas Houston Mission. Sister Woerner is safely here, has met us, and looks very excited to be in Texas. Each missionary came with a bright look in their eyes of determination and willingness to participate in taking the gospel to the people living in the mission boundaries.  We love each one already and are so glad to have her with us. Thank you for the support and love you give your missionary.  It is most important as she begins and continues the experience of being in the field.  You will be receiv

Hello everyone!                                                                                                                                 10/11/17 First thank you to everyone who has sent me emails, I LOVE hearing from you all, but don't have much time to reply, so if I don't, please know that I love hearing from you and really, really appreciate it, and I'm sorry if I don't reply.  So, this week, I was coming down the elevator from class to lunch, and there's this lady in the elevator with Hermana Riding, Burke, Gardels, and I. She was quiet the entire time, but when we reached the 1st floor, she tells us that we have to go around the way (this way we could still see the front door, but we'd be farther away, and could keep walking to the side door) so, we go, and slow down a little bit to see why we couldn't go to the front door, and there's this fancy man in a golf cart. We didn't recognise him, and the lady was getting mad that w
