Hello Everyone! 

It's been a great week! Time is going by so quickly.  I have already been here for 6 weeks, which means its transfer time! Sister Francom and I are staying here in the Casper YSA until she leaves in three weeks.  Then I will be companions with Sister Coder who is from Oregon also, so that's way cool!  Together we will cover the 3rd ward and the YSA.  It will be a good time! 

Last Tuesday right after pday (preparation day) ended I tripped down the stairs and sprained my ankle.  Sister Francom was freaking out like I needed to go to the hospital, it was kinda funny.  I had to tell her that I have done that a million times before and it would be fine.  Then she wouldn't move the car until we called the elders to give me a blessing (even though I was fine!).   Anyway, once we got to the Elders, the one who was giving me a blessing thought you just pour all the oil on the person's head (he's pretty new), so that happened.  It was pretty funny!   That was my funny story for the week, haha! 

Sister Zimmerman went home this week which was really sad! This week we set a meeting with a less active member named Jacob. He came with his girlfriend, which was awesome because she isn't a member. We taught her the first lesson and gave her a church tour. She said she wants to learn more so that's super exciting!!  Levi our other investigator came to FHE (Family Home Evening) so we got to play spike ball with him!!

Today we went to the Casper Waterfall. It was so beautiful!  We went with Sister Gish and Sister Packard, and it was way fun! 

This transfer we have been challenged to memorize The Living Christ. I want to challenge all of you to do the same! As we think about Jesus Christ this Christmas season I think this inspired document can really help us to learn more about his life and grow closer to him!
Love you all and I hope you have a great week! 
Sister Walker

Week 11 Hello! It's been a great week! It went by so fast! Crazy story… we do service at a food bank called Joshua’s and this week when we were there the BBC came and did a story on poverty in America and filmed us helping people! So we are going to be on the news in England! Hit me up when I'm famous! Haha just kidding!  Another crazy story, on Friday the Elders who live three houses down from us were waiting outside our apartment for us. Then told us they needed some advice, then proceeded to tell us they got in a fight and one of them, Elder Brunner, had a gash on the side of his head! They were wondering if they should go to the hospital… ya, we told them they should! It was crazy!   We went on exchanges this week which was so fun! I went with Sister Clark and the people we ate dinner with had a stuffed bear that the dad had shot, haha! We also saw some beautiful lights! Also she let me drive! I miss driving so much!  Also sad day, Sister Francom leaves on Thursday

10-31-17 Hey Everyone! This week has been so long but it felt so short! We have had some crazy adventures! Our landlord Debbie is absolutely crazy, so that's fun! She called and freaked out on us because someone used the bathroom in the middle of the night and it woke our upstairs neighbor, haha. In our apartment there is an outside door, and then we go downstairs to get to our actual apartment. The lady upstairs locked the outside door so we couldn't get into our apartment so we had to climb through the window, and the neighbor called and told Debbie. So Debbie freaked out again!   I'm so glad the STL’s live there and Sister Zimmerman is such a kind soul because I would not have been able to stay calm the whole time. We did see a lot of miracles this week which was awesome! The Elders before us were teaching an investigator named James who is very anti sister missionaries, and this week he let us into his home and we had a wonderful lesson! We have an investigator nam

Week 13 Hello Everyone! First of all Merry Christmas!  I hope you all had a great one!  Mine was amazing! We went to an old folks home and sang Christmas songs to them  and it was way fun.  They loved it and were so grateful.  Also I got to talk to my family!  It was so good to see and talk to them!  I miss them a lot.  Our mission president gave us permission to watch The Best Two Years, which is a movie about missionaries.  We got to do that at the Katz’s house, who are these really rich people that have a theater room! It was so cool! We also got to have zone conference  on Friday  which was super fun! We did a white elephant gift exchange and I ended up with a football sippy cup! Today we had district pday and it was so fun! We played basketball and soccer and zombies, which is a tag game with nerf guns! It was awesome! It snowed so much here this week! It was crazy! On one of the days it was so bad that we weren't allowed the drive our cars. That was a fun day, haha!
