Sister Muti and I are doing very well! We have baptized 2 people already, and we are baptizing a third this Saturday! I can't wait!
Also, I will probably be going back to Yelm for Judy's Baptism in June. My companion, Sister Muti is Tongan. She was born in Tonga, grew up in Hawaii, and then moved to California after high school. She is 27 years old. The ward here is really awesome....! I love it! There are a lot more people here - it is comparable to my area in the Soundview ward. There is a lot of water here, lots of bridges, and lots of roads that follow along the coast line. There is also a naval base in my area, Bangor Naval Base. We have been on base before for teaching appointments, and member meals. We are escorted on base by someone who lives on base, and we have to show our government id every time we go on base.
And yes, I got Aunt Joy's package! I loved it! It was just what I needed, even the tooth brush that Doug picked out was perfect!
And yessss!!! I am sooo totally pumped to receive more of dad's mission journals! You could seriously like, sell copies of it is so good! Lots of people would read it! I can't wait to read the rest of his mission journals! I have let some of my companions read his journal and they really like it. I have even had other missionaries ask me what kind of things he write about on his mission, because they are striving to better journal writers and they have heard me talk about how much I love reading my dad's mission journals!
I met a family here who said they know Jaclyn, and they sort of remember Elder Evan Estes too! Jaclyn was in their ward when they lived back East! They were so happy to hear that she is still strong in the church and married in the temple. Their names are Brother and Sister Christy and Chris LeBlanc. They told me to tell her they say Hi, and they are proud of her... so maybe you could tell them, because I don't know their new address yet....? Also, please be sure to thank Evan for the pen... I use it every day! Tell Grandma Hunt that I love her, and that I am grateful for her. She is an awesome example :) Tell Ian I say hey, and the California Chapples too, and have fun in California! I love you Momma, and I am so grateful for you. I love you lots Momma~!
Your daughter, Megan :)
