Funny story about my flight here! I scared a man from sitting next to me. Like seriously, he was sitting by me, and asked why I had a name tag. I told him and then he got up from the seat, took his luggage and sat somewhere else. I guess I can be pretty scary.
My new companion is Sister Hallam. She's from California, and I absolutely LOVE her. She reminds me a bit of Aunt Katie. Tiny little thing, but full happiness and excitement. We get along super well, and she makes everything fun! Every single time someone is rude, or a door is slammed in our face we both look at each other and say " Well at least we're still drop dead gorgeous." It's the best!!!
My first area is....drumroll, Concord, New Hampshire!! We are actually shot gunning this area, and are having a lot of success! Shot gunning is when you open an area that has previously been closed. We have 7 new investigators! Here, many of our investigators struggle with addiction, so we spend most of our lessons on Heavenly Father's love for us and how through Jesus Christ we can come closer to Him.
We have a car. We don't like using it too much because it makes it hard to street contact. The other day we walked somewhere around 10 miles while street contacting!
(Speaking of which, I met someone here that knows uncle Narv!) He is our Stake President, and as soon as he saw my name he asked if I was related to a Narvel. Apparently he was Aunt Julie's and Narv's Sunday school teacher a long time ago... Brother Anderson)
In our whole mission we have 40 Sisters, and 110 Elders.
I LOVE president Blair and his Wife. They are THE FUNNIEST people EVER!
We spend a lot of time helping with less active members, and getting to know the members. I can honestly say that they are the most hospitable people ever!
The work is good here! Lots of good things are happening. I absolutely LOVE it.
Love you all!!!
Sister Scherzinger
