Pictures!

Dear family and friends.
Here is a couple more pictures. So it has been so crazy here. Where to start. My knee is getting bigger and bigger. I forgot how nicely I bruise. Transfer calls were last night. I am staying in Portage with Sister Burns I guess I can't leave until I get it right or they do. hehe. However we are excited. We have seen some less actives come back. We have a baptismal date with a woman named Nancy. She is the grandmother of one of our other investigators, Pam. She has had the Book of Mormon for about a month and is through 2 Nephi. She loves the Book of Mormon and says that there is something that just keeps drawing her into it. Telling her to read. So it is exciting. Her husband is also becoming interested in what Nancy is reading. The other problem is she lives about 45 minutes away so we talk on the phone a lot. But we love her and are excited for the changes that are taking place in her life. It is amazing what the Book of Mormon can do. For Nancy it gives her peace, and makes the pain in her leg go away. I love it!!

Me and sister Burns are happy. We are a lot a alike and are trying to make things
go faster. We have seen miracles and have decided for a joint audio journal
because we love talking about things going on so much that we might as well get it on tape. hehe. I was excited to stay with her. I guess Portage is my home away from home. So things are crazy here but really good. I love the gospel and the experiences I am having out here.

I hope you have a great week.


Love ya all. and hope to hear from you soon.
Love, Sister North

Hello Family.

Wow what Chaos it is here in Portage la Prairie. We had freezing rain for 2 days so everything was covered in Ice. We were on "walk down" and weren't allowed to drive our cars so we had to walk everywhere... well slide and slip everywhere. I feel like I could be a fairly okay ice skater compared to before this week. hehe. We slide everywhere! So it has been interesting for sure. Sometimes a little scary and recently a lot of puddles while the ice is melting. So it has been good. I love it here. Transfers are this upcoming tuesday and I can't even believe how fast it went.One thing after the next. I have really enjoyed being able to serve here with sister Burns (my twin in personality.) and the Smith's a senior couple here that takes care of us on so many levels. They are an amazing couple and I love them very much. I took a wonderful fall yesterday. My knee got pretty banged up however. It wasn't my favorite as far as we were on a busy street, and I probably amused many by it. hehe. However i got up quickly and resumed on our way.
We are teaching a lot of people and trying hard to help them come unto Christ and repent so that they can experience the full love of the Atonement. It is a change of life, and heart, but essentially nothing will make them happier in the long run. But I have really grown to love the people here, both members and nonmembers.
I love the work. There is nothing like missionary work and blessings it brings. I know that the gospel is true. And I am grateful for the prayers in my behalf. I feel them. I know that you are aware of me. I love you all. Thanks for all the support you have given me. It is great! I really appreciate it.

I love you all. Take care. Be safe, and hopefully spring finds you soon.

Love, Sister North
