P-Day, Finally!!

We FINALLY heard from Elizabeth today!  She has been in California for a week, but we didn't know exactly where until we received her email this afternoon.  She is serving in the Newbury Park zone, in the Dos Vientos ward boundaries.

Her training companion, Sister Unga, is also 19 and has been out for a whole 3 months!  They are lucky enough to be living in the guest house in the backyard of one of the members there, in a very nice gated community.

 

 

 

She spends her days finding people to teach and says she is lucky to have dinner appointments every night, with members and non-members who like to have the missionaries over to talk to.  Her struggle is that it is hard to find progressing investigators there.  Though most of the people are very nice, they are happy with their lives as they are and are not interested in learning what Elizabeth has been trained to teach.  I'm sure that she is meeting all kinds of people from different backgrounds there!

She is working hard and learning the ups and downs of missionary life.  I know that this is an awesome experience for her!
