Snow Before Halloween :(
Hi everyone, how's it going? I hope you are all having a fun Halloween! It is super cold here! we have gotten about 4 inches of snow this past weekend. people everywhere were telling us that we were supposed to get 8 to 12 inches but we only got 4 so that was good. This week was pretty good we did an exchange with the Glenville Sisters and that was really good we all had a good time and learned from each other. I went to Glenville so I got to meet some of there investigators and do some finding up there while Sister Hale and Woodmansee were here in Bennington. We have been doing a lot of finding this past week and we have come close to picking up some new people to teach. we have a referral that we are excited about we just have to find a time when we can meet with them. we hope that it all works out and we can teach them. Today we have P-day and then we have to stay in our apartments for Halloween. Halloween is not a good night for missionary work :( but we have a lot that we can be doing at home. we have to do the training in our district meeting this week so we have to prepare for that.... I hope it goes well! oh and this Saturday is transfer call. I am not sure what is going to happen with that but I am pretty confident that I will be staying here for my last transfer.The question is if I will be staying with Sister Hale or not. well, I guess we will find our soon. I hope you all have a great Halloween and I will write again next week! --Sister Cox

We normally have our meeting in Greenwich, NY but now they want us to switch off every other week. It takes up a big chunk of our day, it is and hour and a half drive there then we have a meeting of and hour and a half and then it is and hour and a half back. it is a long day of driving! oh, well we are still doing good on our miles for the months so that is a good thing. we are doing an exchange with Glenville Sisters this week!

Fall is FINALLY getting here!
(e-mail from 10/11/11)
Hello everyone! How was your week? I had a pretty good week! Sorry about no email last week. I will repent. First thing is that we found some new people to teach this week so that was really good. one of them was kind of a miraculous that we found him. one day we were walking home and our mission pres. called us and told us he wanted us to look up this former record because he has just got off the phone with an Elder that has served here in 2007, well his dad past away and apparently his dad grew up here and new the former quite well. so this Elder wanted to get his information to tell him that his dad past away. so we ended up going over to the formers house and talked to him for about an hour. it was a good talk and we are going to start teaching him! it was an amazing experience I know that we were lead by the Lord to find him. this week we also has Stake Conference! it was really really good. A lot of the talks were centered on missionary work! :) This week we are looking forward to Zone Conference Elder Piper of the seventy is coming! and the leaves have finally started to change!! they are not that good this year some say that it was because off all the water and the flooding and some says its because of the warm and then cool and then warm weather we have been having. I am not sure which it is but they are pretty still, just not as good as last years. bummer :( oh, well still it prettier than anything I have seen in the west! well I hope you all have a good week! --Sister Cox
