Hey there family-
Life here in Gloucester, Mass has been going good. The weather is not quite sure what it wants to do. It was freezing the middle of last week. I was layering up the best I could, but today I am walking around with a short sleeve shirt and am quite comfortable.
We have a car here, but miles are an issue this month. There was a family that would take the sisters to church every week, but they moved up by the church. We have been walking a lot needless to say. We have stayed here in Gloucester most of last week and will be here most of this week too. on Saturday we had to walk to the city of Rockport which is 12 miles round trip to talk with our investigator Bill and his kids. The day was really windy and on the way home I thought that is was going to rain, but the Lord helped us out a bit. a member of our ward drove past, stopped and gave us a ride back home.
Yesterday was stake conference. It was really amazing. I hadn't had a stake conference since I have been out so this was a new experience. Elder Eyring's son is our area authority so he was there and spoke to us. The stake president gave a talk about growing where God has planted you. It was really good to hear that someone has a positive attitude outlook on life. The people that we run into here are complaining about what the economy is going through, not knowing what the heck is going on there it just makes them sound like they are winning.
Last p-time we helped this woman that we tracked into take some boxes down to her basement. After she sat and 'prophesied' about what and kind of when that 2nd coming was going to occur. That was fun. The people you meet on your mission are people you will never forget and hope never to become like some.
When you send me things make sure that you put 18 Elwell St. BASEMENT, if not it will go to my neighbor. Nice lady I just don't want her to have to play mail service. I hope that all is going well with the family (those who i hear from and those i do not).
Love you all,
Sister Foy
