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."

Dad (toby7272@hotmail.com); Mom (homeecdiva@hotmail.com)We had this crazy awesome awkward dinner. It was with a widowed lady
that was 87! We walk in and chat and then she asks S Morris what her
name is. She wanted to know our first name. We didn’t tell her for
awhile but she was very persistent. So we told her. Then we went to
eat and she goes, "Sara, could you say the prayer?" Ah! hahahaa. It
was great. It was soo hard not to laugh during the prayer. Then she
told me I don’t have long left on my mission. That was a first for me.
haha. Then there was craziness with the dessert and me trying to pawn
off my coconut to S Morris so I didn’t have to eat it. It was just the
best dinner appointment ever.

Oh another dinner appointment we had 2 days ago was: bananas, oranges,
grapes, and watermelon. That’s it. hahaha. Luckily we had an FHE with a
Recent Convert family and they gave us sticky rice and Mama. (an
Asian top roman) So good!

Oh Mu Doh (who got baptized on Oct 23) got a calling! She is in the
primary. So proud of her!

I have been slacking on my "only in" so I have one for you

Only in this language program does the weather affect baptism and
sacrament attendance. I am very serious. Now that its cold attendance
is starting to go down a bit and another lady said she didn’t want to
get baptized this Saturday b/c it was to cold. Lame. haha. but the good
news is now 3 people are getting baptized on Saturday and not just
one!!!!!! Masha, Nyae Meh, and Paw Meh, which her nickname is Sara!
haha.

I think I told you about this already but every Sunday we go over to
a RC house and work on Personal Progress with one of her daughters,
Pay Li. Anyway, it is soooo amazing to help her! When we first started
we had to pull her out of her room now she waits for us and runs to
get her stuff so we can help her!!!! She has changed so much in these
past few weeks and we have been able to sign off 4 things in Faith!!!
It is just so awesome to see her change. I hope I can work in Young
Women’s when I am older. Well like back in a family ward.

Oh I need a CD case if you are looking for something else to send
me....Sorry I keep forgetting to tell you but if its to late totally
understand

I have opened floss, ornaments, a awesome notebook with colored
pencils, ummm that’s all I can remember. But its been fun so thank you.

Love you all. Love, Sister Anderson
