Dear Family,
Well I am about to leave for Michigan so I was able to write
you fellas!!! So these last few days have been awesome just like every other
day!!!! Last night was especially amazing! We had the Elders in our district
give us sister missionaries blessings!! I think it was almost all of their
first blessings so it was fantastic! So asked Elder Taylor to give me my
blessing and it was his first blessing!!!! I was Elder Taylor's first blessing,
how cool is that! Okay well all the blessings were short and just the sweetest!
These young missionaries are so strong and you know that the Lord has prepared
them for this time! I have learned so much from them and I'd like to think they
are doing the same. Don't worry I wrote my blessing down in a journal so I
won't forget it. That was probably the highlight of my MTC experience. So the
other sisters in my district are gone, they left this morning for Boston so it
is just me and Sister Mortensen with all the elders!! Haha! They're great so we
don't really have too many problems. It is crazy how your district can become
like a little family and how much you learn and support one another. It truly
is amazing. I have loved seeing everyone grow and I hope that I will be able
to see them out in the field and see the progress and growth they have made.
Oh also guess what Sister Mortensen and I got locked out of
our room twice!!!! It was so funny until it happened a second time! So the
second time we said a companion prayer to have Heavenly Father unlock the door
and I really thought and believed that it would be unlocked, but it wasn't. A
few seconds latter a worker came by and unlocked out door!!! Heavenly Father
really does answer our prayers through other people!!! I just feel so blessed
to have all these experiences!! I am just loving being a missionary. Don't get
me wrong it is tough work and it takes so much out of you but I have learned
and grown so much already!! Oh also I was chosen out of our whole zone to give
a talk on Sunday. It was random, but I mean seriously out of everyone!!! It was
on enduring to the end by the way. Also while we were on our temple walk Sunday
there were protesters at the temple! It was weird! Well I am sorry but I have
to go!! Sorry it is so short! I love you all and wish you a great week!
Love Always,
Sis. Smith
