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."

Well my 6 month mark was yesterday and no I didnt burn anything or do anything for it. just fyi. Oh and Julie...Thank you so much for the clothes! The purple sweater was to big but the other 2 were great! Thanks!

We got to go to the temple today!!!! It was great and a huge session. On our way home we were talking about food and where we liked to eat and so the members took us all (6 missionaries) to Chick-ful-a! It was wonderful.

So Temple Suare with Tom was amazing! He said he would start taking the lessons from us! Still has not gone to church yet though....still working on that one. Hes 3 year old son is supper cute. Joey. We are like best friends. I thaught him how to play the thumb war game and we played that for like 20 min in the car driving to TS. Oh and Sister Jordana Wilde gave a a tour of the North visiters center! It was good to see her.

Micheal (yes, his name is spelled right) is getting baptized this weekend! At 3! I am so excited!!!!!! He is so awesome. He is always so willing to say the prayer after the lessons and he has wonderful prayers! His younger brother, Andrew is stating to sit in lessons and praying in lessons too!!! I love teaching these 2!

Jarens baptism went amazing. Like nothing at all went wrong. Well we started like 5 min late but taht was it! The font was filled, the talks short sweet and to the point, good amount of people were at the baptism. It was the lest stressed I had been about a baptism my whole mission. Its all the WML. This ward has an awesme WML.

Oh the fried pickels turned out great. Thanks! There was a group of about 8 people there so when I was making them I still had to do missionary things so I made sure all of them were reading thier scriptures and saying prayers at night. haha. I got a commitment out of all but like one that they were going to do those two things now.

OH My I almost forgot! Garry is getting the priesthood on sunday!!!!!!! This is my first person on my mission to see get the priesthood! I am so excited for him! Oh I am just so happy for him!

Transfers are next week so I will be e-mialing on Thursday.

Thanks for all you do. Love you tons! Love, Sister Anderson
