2/20/17--Back to New York


Well as y'all know I am headed back to New York tomorrow!!! I am super excited to be apart of the Lord's work once again! I know God gave me this chance to come home and spend some time with my family and friends. I have been truly blessed to be able to return to my mission and continue serving the Lord. I know that serving a mission is where the Lord needs me.

This week I did a lot of packing and cleaning getting everything read for when I leave. I realized it is a lot easier to pack on a mission then from home going back on a mission. On the mission you just pack everything you own and you are good to go. Where as here I have to figure out what to take what to leave. There is just so much more stuff to choose from and the whole thing is a little frustrating.

I think the biggest adventure of the week was last night with the tornado. In the middle of the night my alarm went off and scared me half to death. Then right after I had climbed in bed my dad came in telling me to take my pillows and a blanket and go downstairs. I was so confused and lost. Once downstairs all the girls smashed in the closet. Many funny comments were made and I got hit a couple times by Paige. After 30 minutes of this adventure the tornado passed so we went back to our own beds. I didn't realized how much I appreciated my own bed without anyone touching me.

Well I hope everyone has a great week! The next time I email I will be back in New York! I count the many blessings the Lord has given me and especially the blessing of healing my tumor and giving me a second chance at a mission.

Con Amor
Hermana Ashford
