Dear Family, 
   Well I guess that I will be in Milford for five transfers. That 
means I will be here for 7 1/2 months. I seriously thought that I was 
going to be transferred because I have been here for 6 months. One  of 
my companions so getting transferred. Saturday morning during our 
companionship studies President Anderson called us and said that we 
will still be in a trio. Then told Sister Hoofman that she will be a 
Sister Training Leader. I will stay in Milford and finish Sister 
Lythgoe's (the missionary I'm training) training. 
   Well we got about three new investigators this week. One of them we 
found a couple of weeks ago and he kept getting more and more 
interested taking the lessons. When we had our first lesson with him 
he had a lot of questions that pertained to the Plan of Salvation. We 
invited him to baptism and he said yes. Which is very exciting! 
   The other two investigators that we just got we taught them on 
Saturday. We found them while we were trying to contact a 
inactive/less active member. We parked in front of their house and one 
of the family members was outside. So we just went up and started 
talking. We shared the restoration with them and it was really 
powerful. Lets just say for only being out for six weeks Sister 
Lythgoe does better at inviting people to be baptized then I do... 
   We are excited to be teaching these three new investigators. A 
couple of days ago we were up in one of the townships in our area 
called Quakertown. Trying to contact another inactive member. She 
wasn't home but her daughter was. We talked to her and asked her if 
there was anyone that she thought might be interested in learning more 
about the church. She told us that one of her neighbors might be 
interested. So we went and contacted the referral. He told us to come 
back on Saturday at five o'clock. We came back yesterday planning to 
teaching him and his family. When we got there he had family over and 
they were getting ready to eat dinner and invited us to join them. We 
got to talk to them and they are from Sedan. We asked them some 
questions about their culture and it sounded pretty interesting. 
   So every transfer the district leader has to double in to sisters 
areas if they have sisters in their district. What doubling in means 
is the Elders come into our area and help out. So we pretty much 
create a list people (on our iPads) that they can go see while they 
are in area and we air drop them the list to their iPads. Then they 
pretty much go contact people in our area. They were originally going 
to be here for around five hours but the time kept getting cut down. 
   Well I think that is all that had happened this week. It was a week 
full of miracles! I hope all of you have a wonderful week and I love 
you! 

Love, 
Sister Paige Bluemel
