Carving Pumpkins New Experience for Lila's Companion

Lila didn't write a "blog letter" this week, so I will fill you in on the latest:
Lila got a new companion named Sister Fraire. She is originally from Mexico but moved to Georgia with her family 7 years ago. She speaks English well and is excited to work hard. Apparently, carving pumpkins was new to her. Lila loves holiday traditions so I'm not surprised that they carved pumpkins on their P-day which just happened to fall on Halloween. No members had them over for dinner so they had extra study time. Lila carved the mission logo on her pumpkin. It has arrows leading from Faith to Repentance to Baptism to the Holy Ghost to Endure to the End. So like Lila...!
Lila bought a new inexpensive digital camera and she's very excited that it's purple!
Lila and Sister Fraire are reading the Book of Mormon together in both Spanish and English--Lila is excited to get a little practice with her Spanish, though she says that she can understand most of what she reads.
Lila and Sister Fraire have several people they are teaching. Lila asks us to pray for her increased ability to contact each of them daily (usaually by texting or calling).
Lila loves where she is serving right now (Lawton) and would enjoy finishing her mission there. There are three more transfers before she comes home on March 1st so we'll see what happens.
That's all folks!
