MOVING ON!!

Saying Good-bye in Cape Cod to

my dearest Sister Perry!

{Sister Perry has become a friend to our family.

She recently sent us a "Cape Cod package" with

salt water taffy, nautical note cards, sea shells, etc.

We responded with an "Arizona package" with

items related to our "5 C's"--citrus, cotton etc.

Sister Perry LOVES Hilary and called when she

was transferred to tell us that she wants

to stay in touch. She's a favorite!}

I helped plant this @ Sis. Perry's house :)

All of the Sisters @ transfer meeting 7/3/08

A lot of Sisters were transferred this time.
Sister Bingham is to the left of me.

New companion, Sister Wendt, is behind
Sister Bingham and me. Sister Wendt is
from Hurricane, Utah.

Sister Phillips and I. Isn't she the Cutest!

Note my Grandma Deenie pin :)

This was @ transfer mtg. 7/18

The Phillips are the Senior Missionary

couple in our Ward. Senior couples make

the missionary experience so much better.

Missy's baptism 7/5/08

Missy's Mom is recently activated and several

members of their family have been baptized .

This was a great start in a new area for me.

Missy has 3 daughters.

July 19th, 2008

Jim and Jen P. were married and divorced

and got back together before they were

converted to the Gospel...

we had an amazing experience with Jim

and Jen who were neighbors to a family

in our ward who referred the

missionaries to their home and they

have never stopped progressing since!

They were married by Bishop Whitcomb

on Sat. the 19th! Talk about a good 7

month mark celebration! It was a way

small wedding with like no more than

15 people there, but it was just perfect.

Sister Wendt and I made the refreshments.

haha it was so fun!!

Jim and Jen and Family 7/20/08

The next day, July 20th, Jim and Jen got baptized

as did Anastasia L. who is Missy's daughter.

My testimony is growing more and more every day

and I can't imagine not knowing right now the

things I'm learning out here...and there's SO

much more to learn! I've been so blessed!

I know I'm called of God to come out and

teach these people and that He needs me

and my personality to get into the hearts

of these people!

It's so neat to have always pictured who I want

to become and now out here on a mission,

I'm becoming that person!

I LOVE IT!

Happy Letter

Received a happy and cheery letter today.

Sister Worthen loves her new companion,

Sister Wendt,

but sent no information where she was from or anything

about her other than she is AWESOME

and that there is a ton of

great missionary opportunities

in her new Ward.

{Scroll down to Lexington Post to see a picture of

Sister Wendt}.

Sister Worthen's words: "When Sister Wendt

and I saw each other at transfers and found out

we could serve with each other, we were so

excited/scared it wouldn't happen,

but they called our names together and

WE ABOUT DIED!

We just thanked Heavenly Father so much!

But we know we're together because there

is alot of work to do! I'm so ready to

work HARD! We've already been able to

see a glimpse of what's to come with some

teaching appointments that

HAVE BEEN AMAZING!

The Spirit was so strong!

Heavenly Father knows what

He's doing and He treats me good!"

{A Mom can't asked for better than that!}

GOOD-BYE FOR NOW CAPE COD!!

On Wednesday, July 2, two ladies from the Cape Cod

area called to say that Sister Worthen was being

transferred. We haven't heard where she is yet, but are

anxiously awaiting her first letter and all of the

details. Here are her last pictures of Cape Cod.

The ladies who called were so appreciative of

Sister Worthen's work in their area. Our family

is grateful to the wonderful people of Cape Cod

who treated Hilary and the other missionaries

so royally. She has been greatly blessed to

know you and work amongst you.
