Oh, I forgot! With good news, there is always, of course, bad news. They dropped one of our areas from missionary work, since they have had no active interest in so long, and the stake is lacking sister missionaries... or something, so we are losing our sisters. I'm bummed. Another case of not knowing what you've got 'til it's gone! I took advantage of having the sisters and going on splits. The elders are great, of course, but it's certainly not the same. I'm not sure how long it'll last. Hopefully not too long! ;] Sister Jo is getting sent home a month early because of it. It's really sad ...

I was taught by the sisters. My life was so touched by them, and I've formed special friendships with so many of them. It's definitely a great loss for us, but I know that it is for the best. In the meantime, they are working on calling several ward missionaries to visit the inactive members and investigators in the area, but, for the meantime, no active proselyting. There are so many people up there ... it's so sad to think of. But I know that He knows and understands better than I do, and that there is a greater need in some other area. It'll just be weird for awhile.
