1 Nephi 11:17. read it. fav scripture of the week.

Hi Friends!

So, I have news... I'm leaving Terrace Heights :( Gotta say goodbye to Sister Fleming and the place that is, to be honest, more home than Salem. Well, I know how to get around better here haha. BUT I'm going to a place called Ephrata. I know nothing about it except that there's a Walmart and "if you sneeze, you'll miss it" according to Angela. I'll be with Sister Jensen, and have no info about her either, so stay tuned for next week :)

We saw miracle after miracle this week, thank goodness, 'cause I hadn't felt like much was coming from #FeedtheFifty, especially after hearing others' stories. My favorite was something that happened Tuesday. I loved it because it took time to culminate into a miracle, and it showed how the Lord really is directing each and every instance, more easily if we choose to heed the promptings of the Spirit. So, that morning we went, like usual, to the church for exercise. A man showed up to do some sort of maintenance, so we left and decided that we still wanted to run, so we'd just run outside(in the freezing cold). We ran up through the neighborhood next to the church and just randomly(so we thought) zigzagged down the streets. Later we both mentioned to each other that while we'd been running we'd thought that we should tract up there, so we did! and our LAST house was a man who had previously read the Book of Mormon(at least some of it) and told us there was nothing in it that he didn't agree with. We were floored, and soaring at the same time. And all because some man came to work on the church early in the morning. Thank goodness for him. 

We got to go to a baptism in Goldendale on Saturday! It was incredible. If we'd stayed on the freeway a little longer, I probably could've gotten us to the my parents house haha. 

Adam, my nephew, sent me his Flat Stanley this week to take around, he is an honorary missionary and everyone has loved him. :) 

So much else happened, but I have 12 tons of other things to do before I'm transferred... farewell!

Much Love

Week 2

Heyo! So this email is prolly gonna be just as harebrained as the last one 'cause I'm still working out the kinks of timing and putting my thoughts in order. So, this is my last Pday in the MTC.. we leave at 230AM next Tuesday, I don't know what that'll mean for emails but there will be another eventually, no worries. Couple things, actually a bunch of things: 1: Sister Cannell drinks chocolate milk WITH ICE. I know weird, but I've decided to be the bigger person and look past it(that's a joke, I love her, it's hard not being able to put a little bit of sarcasm in my emails) 2: Anyone and everyone, please feel free to write/email me, I love hearing about like anything right now haha 3: Role playing is a total blessing, Sister Cannell is pretty shy and it's really helped her come out of her shell a bunch plus it helps to keep me from rambling like I do. 4: Speaking of my rambling, we watched this Elder Holland talk about opening your mou...

Kind of a walking area...

Hi friends! So I don't actually know how to condense everything that I want to share into a feasible email, so just a disclaimer: I totally don't expect you to read all of this. It's a heck of a lot of information. SOO... We got to go to the temple on Tuesday! As a mission we get to go once every six months, usually in October and April. Our zone all went together to the Columbia River temple, which is way tiny, but it was so wonderful. After a crazy week of so much new and nothing familiar, the temple was way nice to get to recuperate a little.  Wednesday was really chill. We got to brush horses which I loved. they are so calm, at least the ones Sue lets us brush, and it's nice to do something that doesn't require a whole lot of thinking. Sue, the owner of the ranch we went to is so loving and she's kinda hilarious too. She calls us her missionaries or her sisters and says a prayer with us every time we come.  Thursday.. we got Margaret back on d...

Week ..4?

Hi Friends! This is technically finishing up my fourth week, but counting them isn't gonna last very long cause it all blends together sometimes.  PSA: will anyone who has pictures of us (me with you etc) send them? I didn't bring ANY for fear of homesickness, but now I really want them. Other PSA: DearElder doesn't work outside the MTC just fyi Other other PSA: my address for the mission is the following: Sister Karlee Hansen Shuldberg Washington Yakima Mission 1006 S 16th Ave Yakima, WA 98902 Send me stuff! I'll try to write back :) Soooo..., I'm in the mission field!! Aaahhh, can you believe it! It's actually kinda weird, but I already love it and It's so much better than the MTC, at least for me right now it is. i may miss the MTC later, but theses last 6 days have been good majority of the time.  buncha things: -One of the Elders in my MTC district legit laughs like Bob from Monsters v. Aliens and its amazing -Our last Sunday, I ...
