The Week of The Final Unknown Transfer

On this week's episode of Sister Cale in Columbus-Sister Cale was
given access to My Plan (a program for missionaries who will soon be
returning home to plan their lives), the Sisters finished their mural
at My Very Own Blanket, our mini missionary was a rockstar, the
sisters worked a lot down where the humble people are, the sisters
loved a week of cooler weather and died when the heat returned, the
Sisters ate Thai Food at Thai Grille (try the beef curry with the
sweet potatoes, cashews, and avocado), the Sisters went to Schneider's
bakery and tried the Westerville Famous donuts (they were that good),
Sister Cale hit her seventeen month mark, there was a district
meeting, a mini-zone conference, and so much other goodness.

Hello Dearest Ones!

We have had such a beautiful week and a half. I think it's amazing to
see what God has made possible for us as we have done everything we
could to bring about good in the life of his children. I feel like I
have been learning so many different things lately (maybe the spirit
feels like it's crunch time too?).

Something I have grown to love so much as a missionary is seeing the
spirit take over in a lesson and do the work of the Lord while we
occasionally contribute words so the investigator can be taught what
God wants them to know. We were blessed to teach two lessons like that
in this past week. Michael's lesson was the Restoration and it was
amazing to see him soak up all the different key points, and then at
the end of the lesson Sister Bohner asked him what he had felt during
the lesson. He then proceeded to bear his testimony of the Book of
Mormon and how it would bless him as he strives to change his life.
Our other lesson of such spiritual impact was with a girl named
Brittany. From the first time we contacted her we could feel God's
love for her and his desire to help her know of that love and feel his
support. As we testified that God loves her and that she is his
daughter, the spirit wrapped around us as we sat in the parking lot. I
know that God can accomplish his work everywhere, even in parking lots
on the rougher side of town.

So today is the preparation day before transfers, and we don't yet
have news on what is happening or if anything is happening. It feels
wholly and entirely surreal that this is the last transfer that will
happen that I won't know exactly what is coming next. To say that I no
longer understand the passage of time is an understatement. But I'm
excited for whatever adventure comes my way next whether nothing
changes or everything changes, I know that God knows what he's doing,
because there hasn't been a transfer that he got it wrong my whole
mission. This is his work and I am happy to labor in any part of the
field in any capacity.

The church is true, life is good, God's in charge, Satan hates you,
and I love you!

Love,

Sister Cale
