I'm finally here on my mission :) but I'm actually in Oregon! Pendleton to be exact--it is such a cute little town, I absolutely love love love it here! My comp is sooo amazing! I adore her, she has been here for about 14 months and has this whole mission thing down! Such a cool chick...she is actually from Orem, her name's Sister Clegg.
Anyway the food at the MTC was pretty good probably because we were at the west campus, but now that I am out in the field the members feed me like I'm royal or something...It's awesome! haha my comp and I just bought a workout video at walmart so we don't become too big;) Also my apartment at the MTC was like a regular apartment and there was 4 sisters there, but here in Pendleton my comp and I have an apartment to ourselves which is super cool cause it has a kitchen and 2 bedrooms. We have to sleep together so we have a spare bedroom.
I gotta say I just think mission life is grand! I'm trying to be my best here and so far its going great! My first night here I had a lesson with this 17 year old girl and the spirit was so strong. My comp encouraged me to ask her to be baptized so I did, and she actually said yes..this rookie missionary over here didn't know what to do because I thought she would say no-but good thing we work in twos because my comp backed me up and said she needed permission since she was underage. She said that might be a problem since her dad's a strong catholic, so we are praying for her dad to soften his heart.
This is my new comp! She's AWESOME!!! She is from Orem Utah and has
been on her mission for 14 months! I'm in very good hands here in
Pendleton:)
Love you all!!
Sister Toomer
