I'm getting transferred!!!!

I AM GETTING TRANSFERRED!!!!!! Sister Woods is staying in Ammon Foothills and it is going full proselyting (not in the VC) and she is training. I am being transferred to the Taylor Mountain Stake in Idaho Falls and my new companion will be Sister Corry!!!! She was my companion in the MTC. This is a dream come true because we have always wanted to be companions. Sister Corry and I will be the VC Trainers and the Sister Training Leaders.  I am kind of bummed that I only got to be companions with Sister Woods for one transfer, but we are both excited for our new adventures :)
This week was so much fun! I can't remember if I told you, but we started teaching Pastor Edwards. He is the Pastor of a church in Idaho Falls. He is wonderful. We have had to lessons with him and he is just soaking everything up. I am surprised at how well he is receiving everything. We taught him the Restoration last time and he was very interested in Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon.
This week I swear we just got fed water for dinner one night. It was a Friday night and NO ONE was home! If we need to use the restroom we usually just knock on a random door and ask to use the restroom. No one was home at all and as sister Woods says....we were "Burstin' for the Loo!" We finally figured out where we were and we screamed at the same time "GET TO THE HIRSCHI'S!!!!" She is like our mission mom here. We sped there and finally felt better. At least we are staying hydrated. Sorry if the story offends anyone, it's just the mission life. Poor Rissa will probably have to use the jungle often to go to the bathroom.
Teva took us to Mongolian Grill the other day. It was yummy, but the funniest part was getting there. We meet him in a public place to teach him because he is a single male. We met him at Jamba Juice and he decided that it wasn't a proper lunch so he said to follow him to the mongolian grill. When Teva sets his mind to something, there isn't any point in trying to change it. So we start following him and we get separated by a red light. He kept going and we couldn't find him until traffic was stopped in front of Toys R' Us on 17th street (One of the busiest streets in Idaho falls). Sure enough, there was Teva's white Taurus pulled over on the side of the road waiting for us. We were roaring. We drove past and Sister Woods had the window rolled down and she was waving her arms and yelling but he wouldn't look. I have never seen much road rage in my life! He finally answered the phone and he met us at the mongolian grill like nothing happened. Haha!
I had a great experience online at the Visitors' Center! A man named Gene came on to chat, asking how he could convert!!! He was genuinely interested and I sent the missionaries over there right away. I also met a less active woman named Victoria who wants to be active again. She is finding her way back to the church. We have talked on the phone quite a bit and she is great. I'll keep you updated on them both!

I love the summer here! It's so much fun and so many people are outside.

I love you! Have a great week!
love,
Sister Kuhns
