Letter excerpts from May 10th


ok so transfers. Sister Fox is gone and I am here with Sister Mayfield. Its so interesting how we gain knowledge and then we are tested to see if we will make it pure knowledge, by staying true to that which we have received. I am being thus tested. I am striving to conquer my self my pride and my natural man. It is so hard at times but I know that all things are possible through Him who overcame all.

We left late this morning because we had a comp inventory (usually on Thursdays) but we had one to start off the transfer) I know that unless we are unified and have some kind of an understanding we cannot accomplish much. I don't know what the next 6 weeks will hold. but we have been told we are expected to baptize weekly in Tacoma and I want that to happen. To do this we must work closely with the ward. I think that will come as sister Mayfield will require a lot of ward support. She cannot go tracting because she has some nerve problem in her foot where it tells her brain it hurts.

It's great to see new people and get to know new children of our Heavenly Father. I love the restoration so much. The truths we know and hold dear and the most comforting things this life can offer. The spirit can come very near to feeling like a hug. What a marvelous blessing it is that we have bodies to experience life in.

I am grateful for all my family’s support.  
read! pray! love! live!
