We have been hearing from Elizabeth since she's been in California through letters and emails and are so THANKFUL that everything she says is positive about her missionary life. She loves California, she loves her companion, and she loves meeting new people. As you can imagine, she faces some rejection while she's working, but always seems to turn it into a learning experience for herself.
She is still in the same area and is still with Sister Unga. Transfers occur every six weeks in their mission, so they will find out whether they are staying or moving next week.
She has had the opportunity to work with other missionaries in her area
and is even meeting some movie stars!
She has yet to mention any real stars, but has heard a rumor that Britney Spears shops in the same grocery store...
We are so THANKFUL that she has decided to dedicate her life for this 18 months to something that she really believes in. Her testimony of the work she is doing is growing each day. We are THANKFUL for the person she is becoming, not only the missionary but the talented, outgoing, wonderful person who is trying to improve herself every day.
We know that she is THANKFUL for the emails, cards, letters and boxes she has received from home - she can really feel the support from those that love her!
THANK YOU!!
