Hey, I made it to Mississippi yesterday safely with about 25 other
missionaries! We got picked up by the mission president and went to a
chapel where we ate and had a testimony meeting and intro from our
Mission President. Our Mission President and his wife are really nice,
like wayyy nice, they want us to all take things a day at a time. Then
we went to his house and hung out for a few hours and getting to know
each other and stuff like that. niceThe four of us "visa waiters" had
our last prayer all together in Portuguese. It's kinda weird being
temporary, everyone is really nice and welcoming but we're just
different still, and they all have been in the MTC together and stuff.
This morning we went outside and I didn't really notice yesterday but we
walked outside to explore the presidents yard and it smells so good
here! And there are so many trees! Also this morning our assignments
were up. Sister Brimley and I will be staying together and being trained
by Sister Johnson, yay trios. Thank goodness we are staying together,
we'll have language study together every day, and we teach really well
together already. We are serving in the Bastrup branch in Eastern
Louisiana, we will be the first Sister missionaries to ever serve in
that area. I am really excited, I love this place already. It's not the
place I've been dreaming of for the past 6 months but I know it's where
I'm supposed to be, there are places to go, people to meet, and lots to
learn. We're gonna be driving about 3 hours to our area in an hour so
I'll be telling you more next week.
Love,
Sister Stevens
