How Great Shall Be My Joy!

How Great Shall Be My Joy!
Sara at the Provo Temple

Sister Sara in Salt Lake City

Sara entered the MTC on Wednesday, February 3, 2010. Her wonderful friends, Kelsey and Katie, took her to the MTC and "dropped her off at the curb" after their goodbyes. Thanks for helping my girl out.



Soon, two young elders came out to take Sara's luggage and Sara walked into the MTC with "calm and confidence" as Katie put it. Kelsey took some great pictures and promptly sent them to us. Katie gave me a call and said all was well.



So, for the next 18 months, we will follow Sara and her "LIFE BEHIND THE TAG."

Sara and Spanish Sisters and Tenth Letter


Date: Wed, 14 Apr 2010 14:50:04 -0600Subject: There are dogs everywhere!!!From: sara.anderson@myldsmail.netTo: homeecdiva@hotmail.com
Everyone has a dog!!! Or a cat. Or 3 horses. Or a goat! I am in the middle of nowhere! haha. But I like it because I only cover 7 wards ( 1 stake) So actually get to know people! It's wonderful. But sad news that there is absolutely no work. NONE. So it's hard going from an average of 6 lessons a day to 2 a day and one is the spiritual thought at dinner.....So things are very different. So to boost the work I was like "Sister Turner let's promote the Stop Smoking Program!" So we went to every ward mission leader, YW pres, and RS pres to have them announce to have members invite their smoker friends over and have us teach them the stop smoking program. So I really hope that will get us some lessons. We got 6 people to teach last sunday but I called all of them ( the members to set up appt.) the next day and no one called back. Lame. So we are hoping that this coming up Sunday we will get more. We are trying to do service for people too but everyone always says no. It's sad.

But on the bright side we have a baptism this weekend!!!!! Her name is Tasha and she is 10. She has a less active mom. Her mom wants to go to church but she is really busy with work and redoing a house so it's hard for her to make it. So we are working on getting her to church too. They are really cool I like them alot. That is happening this Saturday. I am also going to a wedding this weekend! Sister Turner taught a hispanic couple that were not married and want to get baptized so they are getting married this weekend and baptized next!

Oh we finally got to go to the temple today!!! It was great to get back! I looked for Sister Wilde but didn't see her. Oh well. For a district activity today we went and played laser tag! It was so fun! After e-mail we are going to play Tennis as a Zone. I'm pretty excited for that!!

We have Zone Conference this coming Friday so I'm pretty excited about that.

I like my new Zone Leaders and District leader. My district leader Elder Price is way funny so it's always fun talking to him.

I forgot my planner again, and that's were I write everything down to remind me what to write in the e-mails. So, of course, I forgot everything I was going to write you.

I really like the members we live with. There is a 16 year old girl and she does our nails! So that's fun! Sister Liddell is the RS pres and Bro Liddell is the WML. So it's nice to live with them.

Oh, did you get the like 20 pictures I e-mailed you and or dad? I looked at the blog and didn't see them up.

Well thanks for the letter and the e-mails! And the stamps! Oh and no mom I got transfered before I got your package so if Sister Dial drops it off at the mission office I will get it Monday. Thanks. Love you all. Love, Sister Anderson


Only in Utah when selling a home, as one of the "selling points" that they have on the sign is "One Free Year of Food Storage!" I will send the picture of it some time soon... I laughed for like 5 min when I saw the sign.
