I'm a missionary!!!
There is no way to properly express how I feel in an email, but I will just
give you a quick rundown and reassure you that I am so happy and that I
know this church is true....
My host was from Davis, the one who got called to Cambodia; Casey Cheney.
She was so nice and helpful and led me through a bunch of doors so I could
get all my official missionary stuff. I got my badge first and the
characters look so foreign and so familiar at the same time. It was a
whirlwind of doors, greetings, and instructions. My companion is Sister
Briggs, who I have been messaging on Instagram! She seems so nice and I'm
glad I kind of knew who she is already. My room has three sets of bunkbeds
and three closets. After dropping off my luggage and getting a big bag full
of language material, I went into my lesson building. Two brothers
immediately began speaking to me in Cantonese, then led me to this room
where I completed an informational video/quiz and get to email you!
It's so strange how normal this already feels. I feel so happy and
excited-I can definitely feel the prayers from everyone, so thank you! I
think I will learn how to introduce myself today and will be praying by
Friday!!
I am so grateful to be able to be hear and be taught by wonderful people so
that I can teach people about Jesus Christ. I have never felt so peaceful
about where I am than now. This is where I am supposed to be.
I love you all so so so much and better get going back to Sister Briggs and
begin learning Cantonese! This adventure has begun and I could not be more
thrilled or excited.
CHARITY NEVER FAILETH
Dad-eat a lot of Michelle's cookies and say hi to everyone
Love you all,
