That was Stephen Ward?????? I was
talking about that with my companions two days ago and had no idea! I
wasn't able to watch your link because that site isn't mission-approved,
but I can imagine it. He's great.
I swear on my honor that I
will not put my hair in a ponytail until it looks decently. No nubs.
Agreed.
Biggest news-- I'M TRAINING!
(Even though I've only been through 6 weeks of the 12 week training
program.) And white-wash splitting an area! "What does that second part
mean?" you ask. Whitewashing happens when a companionship enters an area
and neither companion has been in the area before. The other sisters
that were in the area before are staying and we are becoming the second
set, so we will be working with them to split the area and create a
brand-new area book for what is now my companion and my area. Sister Poulson and I did this same thing. It takes a
whole lot of time and coordinating to build up to any teaching time, but
it is good!
I love love love my trainee,
Sister Priday. I will call her a kindred spirit, a bosom friend. We started calling each other our
eternal companion on day one. We just hug and laugh and tell each other
we love each other all the time. The other missionaries have been
calling us twins and saying that President Morby really was receiving
revelation when he set up our companionship. Sister Priday is in love
with life, energetic, kind, super spiritual, social, funny, and
engaging. One day you will meet her, especially since she attends BYU!
She is just great.

When I saw how pumped she was
on transfer day about whitewash splitting an area and being a missionary
in general, my motherly heart swelled as I saw those traits in my
missionary child that I had exuded in her shoes six weeks ago. We are
pumped. We're making a lot of plans on how to get the ward going on
missionary work and on dividing up our area.
Like with Sister Poulson, we
were given a really nice apartment that has never been used by the
church before and was brand new.
I WANT PICTURES from you! Do you love me? Do you care? Please,
please, please send pictures. I'm going
into virtual hysterics. I really really want pictures from you. It's my
dying wish. Hard copy ones that you can hold in your hand. I need. I
need.
I love you all so much!
Love, Sister Schmutz
