Transfer

Dear family and friends,  

I love y'all so much. I'm sorry but I'm not doing a lot of individual letters this week. I am being transferred out of Chapel Hill 2 tomorrow. I don't know where I am going yet. I will get the new address to my parents next week. The Raleigh address will always work but it's slower because they forward it to me from there or give it to me at a meeting, depending on which is quicker at the time. 



I hope y'all don't laugh too hard at all the selfies. We don't really take photos much out and about sense we want to look professional. So most of my photos I take myself. But I know my family still wants them. I don't like good byes and I am sad that I haven't taken any pictures with some of my favorite people. I did get a few with some amazing people still those. But I am leaving a lot of eternal friends here. I hope I can stay in touch with them somehow. But it will be alright. Sister Anderson and I got our hair cut by a member for free today. She's so nice! My hair was longer in the front than the back because I used to have an a-line cut. So it looks like I cut more off that I did. But it needed to be straitened up. I'm trying to grow it out. I hope everything goes well with transfers tomorrow. I have to finish packing and stuff today. We were surprised that I'm the one leaving. We thought Sister Anderson would go first. She has been in Chapel Hill for 6 months, twice as long as me but she's the one staying. I'm sure that I will love the next area as well. That Lord truly blesses us with love for those we serve. 



I'm sorry, I forgot to tell y'all about the weather here. We got snowed in this week. Last Monday we had to go home early because of the snow. We had to stay in all day Tuesday. Which was deep clean day and interviews with the Mission President which we ended up doing over the phone. We couldn't get out of our driveway Wednesday morning so we had to get someone to pick us up for District meeting. There really wasn't very much snow. The problem is the ice. Things freeze like crazy here and it gets pretty bad especially on the roads. But we are good and safe. We had the privilege to hear from Elder Christofferson, and Elder and Sister Soares, as well as Elder Parker this week! It was great! And we shook their hands! So it's been an interesting week, but good.

Love from NC

Dear Friends and Family,

I love and miss y'all so much!!!! I hope all is well. Thank you to y'all who sent me your birthdays. Family and close friends who haven't yet, please do.

​It's beautiful here! There are stuff growing on everything. I'm worried about how my allergies will be come spring.

I love being a missionary and serving the Lord. I love the time I get to spend studying and teaching the gospel. I know that the Book of Mormon is the word of God. And because of that I know that Joseph Smith Jr was a prophet as Tomas S. Monson is now. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Days Saints is the true Church. This is the path for everyone to find joy and life eternal. I am out here sacrificing this time away from my loved ones because I know that this is true and I want to help bring this to as many people as will hear it.I miss y'all but I'm where I need to be. I love letters. I'm sorry I'm not the best at responding right away. Check Facebook for my spiritual thoughts I post every now and than, if we're friends. I was a little sick this week. But I'm getting over it. I am greatful for spell check so y'all can somewhat read what I type. We are doing well. We are focusing on Finding people to teach and helping people come back to church. Remember, you can never go to far to not be able to come back. Christ has already paid the price for you. By his grace we can be saved. " Behold, he sendeth an invitation unto all men, for the arms of mercy are extended towards them, and he saith: Repent, and I will receive you." Alma5:33. Repent mostly meens to change. With the enabling power of Christ Atonement we can overcome. I love y'all. Be stroung and trust in God. (Alma 36:3)

I love and miss y'all so much!!!! I hope all is well. Thank you to y'all who sent me your birthdays. Family and close friends who haven't yet, please do.
