So, sadly after 6 weeks I am leaving Bloomington. Yep, that's right...Sister London is on the move again! It is crazy to be leaving after such a short amount of time. I am sad to leave. I have really come to love Bloomington and the crazy Hoosiers here! It has been such a joy these past 6 weeks to serve around so many awesome missionaries, including the wonderful Sister Jones! I am going to miss being her companion but know that the Lord needs me more somewhere else. It is always so crazy right before a transfer. The not knowing where I am going mixed with the stress of trying to fit everything back into the suitcases! It is exciting stuff!
This week has been a good week! It is still pretty cold here in B-Town which I don't like. Odds are, where ever I end up going won't be much warmer...to bad. We got a new investigator this week! She is great! She is so sweet and we are exciting to teach her some more! We haven't been able to get in contact with the investigator we committed to be baptized last week, so hopefully we can see him this week. He wasn't able to be at our last lesson for some reason, so we were able to focus more on Amber and trying to meet her needs. It ended up being a great lesson and she has so much potential that she doesn't quite realize yet. I know that this gospel will help her so much and am excited for the day when she will be baptized!
We have been teaching an awesome lady, who used to be a member and is wanting to be baptized again. She has such a sincere desire to repent and come back into the gospel. She knows the church is true and is working so hard to be able to turn her life back around. She is amazing. She is a single mom with a disability and doesn't let it slow her down. Her testimony is so strong and I can tell that she knows that this is the right path for her. She actually doesn't live in our ward but the ward she lives in doesn't have sisters serving there and she would rather be taught by sisters. The good/bad news is that her ward will be getting sisters on Wednesday at transfer meeting! It is great because I think all wards need both Elders and Sister, but it is bad news for us because we (not me by then) probably won't teach her anymore. :( I am just glad that I was able to meet her and get to learn from her!
It was a great week, nothing too exciting happened though. So, I'm sorry if this weeks email has been boring! I will have more to tell you next week after I've gotten to my new area and gotten to know my new companion! I love you all!
Have a great Valentines Day!

Oh, we had a masquerade themed zone meeting on Friday! That was fun! We wore masks, Sis Jones and I had the best ones, and then received awesome training! It was epic!
