Wow! It has been a super busy week! It feels like I was emailing yesterday! So we flew out to Juneau on Monday and it was a sweet plane ride as always! We had interviews with our mission President right after we landed and that was good too! Then we spent the night with the Zone Leaders which was a party! It's crazy because in this Zone we have lots of missionaries from all these different Islands flying in and there is only 2 missionary apartments in Juneau so we never really know if we are staying with members or missionaries so it was fun to stay with the ZL's this time! Tuesday was Zone Conference and oh my goodness that was sooo awesome! We don't get to see other missionaries very often so it was like a huge reunion when the whole zone is together. Also the meeting was good of course and I learned a lot about how we need to "match our message" as missionaries. So lots of good stuff with that meeting. After the meeting some of us went teaching and for some reason I was with the Samoan Elder going around seeing people that only speak Samoan and little English. It was cool to teach them even though I didn't know what was going on half the time. Wednesday morning we flew back to Skagway then Drove back to Whitehorse. Oh by the way on the drive back we saw some sweet snow caves! Next to the border the snow is like 9 feet deep and some people made awesome snow caves. So that was the exciting trip to Juneau.
On Saturday Nina was baptized and that was the best thing ever! It was so awesome to see her after she was baptized and see how pure and happy she was. It filled my heart with so much joy! It has been so much fun teaching her and seeing her change. I love this work and love being a missionary. This week we find out if we are getting transferred or not and I have mixed feelings for sure. On one hand I really love these people and don't want to say bye but in the other hand it would be great to go back to Alaska. So we will see what happens.
Well I love
and miss you all and hope you have a great week!
