Sister Strong, Sister Strong, her prayers are very long...

It snowed again!! Glorious. I seriously love it, even though everyone else here seems to be 

done with winter.

Oh, we got our transfer calls, and Sister Christian and I are staying together for another 

glorious transfer! We are super psyched.

We did lots of service this week! We went to the Foodbank and helped out, and we went to the

World Ice Art Championships 2016 and took tickets from people from around the world! It was 

a blast. Also, we had a heater in our ticket booth so we didn't freeze. I took some pictures (the 

igloo is the least impressive thing in the whole park) but if you look it up online it will be three 

times as cool. For those of you on missions, just think there was literally a staircase with

Cinderella running down it carved out of ice. Life size. There was someone who got married 

there. Gotta love Alaska.

Amber is doing super well! She is set to get baptized next Saturday. She came to a baptism this 

past Saturday, and it was an awesome experience for everybody there. We taught her and Sid, 

who's getting baptized April 9th, both a lot this week since it was Spring Break.  It's so weird to 

teach people my own age who are in my same situation... But it's really neat at the same time to 

be able to connect with them and not feel too supremely awkward, since most of them are more 

awkward than I am :)

Pros of going to two wards every Sunday: you get to hear lots of talks. We had a wonderful high 

councilman speak this past Sunday in the YSA branch all about the Atonement. He challenged 

us to read 2 Nephi 9 every day for a month to increase our understanding and appreciation of the 

Atonement, so I'm taking him up on that! I love that because of my Savior, I can have new life. 

And so can you, and so can all the people whom you love that might not even be on this earth
anymore. So go claim it.

We actually do live in igloos here.  This is my home.
