From St. George

Well a lot has happened the last little while so here is the updates. First, for those that don't know, and for those who haven't heard much. I am currently serving in the St. George Mission with my mom as my companion. I got sick while I was serving where I would get bad abdominal pain. So I got sent home. I had gallbladder surgery and am on the recovery. Which is good. I will be going back in a couple of weeks probably somewhere around the 7th of July. So it has been crazy to be home, I am missing winnipeg but fortunately I get to go back when everything is good again. I have been out 8 months, so still have plenty of time to enjoy the rest of my mission. I am still learning a lot here, different from a mission, but I think patience and relying on my Father in Heaven knowing that he is aware of me. I didn't think I would learn it this way but we don't always expect the things that happen to us most of the time. I have had a chance to talk to some of my recent converts and also to some of the investigators I taught and it has been good to encourage them and just to hear of the great things they are accomplishing. So that has been really neat. I am doing good, but still am excited to go back. It has been so wonderful to see friends and family and feel of the great support that I have. It really is encouraging to me to feel like I have such great people cheering me on. Second, my mission address is changing as of June 16.

The new mission office address will be:

845 Shaftesbury Boulevard
Winnipeg, MB R3P 0M5
Canada

What the mission office says about letters that go to the old one:
We will be setting up a forwarding service so that any post you have already sent which may currently be in transit will be forwarded to the new address when we have moved. This will be in effect for approximately 6 months, so hopefully no post will be lost.

So that is kind of crazy, just so you know. I just want you to know that I love the gospel it is something that really brings me the most joy. I love canada and am excited to go back to my mission this I think just makes me appreciate that much more the time that I get to spend serving my Father in Heaven. I just hope that I have been the instrument he has expected of me. I love my Savior, I truly know that by ourselves it would be impossible to really accomplish or have what we hope for. Especially eternal life and exaltation with our families. What an amazing blessing it is know these truths. And that we can know it through a prophet of God. I love President Monson and his sincerity, and humility in this new calling of his. I love you all. Thank you for the support.

Love, Sister North
