Blog Transfer.

I got my mission call today!! Hooray! Anyhow, I won't be opening it until tomorrow so that my family can be there. Or, I guess technically, so that I can be there. I'm currently babysitting a family right now. So yeah, I'll know where I'm going to serve tomorrow!

On a different note, just because I'm me and because I like blogs and such, and in honor of my mission, I am taking a temporary transfer from this blog to another one. And it is, of course, a blog for my mission. I'm not sure if I'll be the one blogging or one of my family members, but it WILL get updated frequently. I mean, just in case you wanted updates and such.

Anyhow, the new blog address is http://sisterjewillis.blogspot.com/

I am SO excited!!

Mission Update

Today I am finally getting my last interview before my mission papers are submitted. My appointment is tonight and I am both nervous and very excited! I am reading my scriptures tripple the amount of time I had been before -almost every break I have in the day now I fill it by reading my scriptures. I am thrilled about General Conference this weekend and I am thrilled for my roommate to get home!! I feel like there is so much I'd like to do before I leave and yet, I wish I was out there right now! After I decided to go I noticed a large increase of returned sister missionaries in my ward and even in my stake. I never realized there were so many! It's been fun picking their brains about what it's really like. It feels strange to be jumping so quickly from one boat to another -college graduate and now sister missionary. But I guess that's what you've got to do sometimes without getting caught in the tide. But I'm excited! I know this is what the Lord wants me to do and I know that He'll be with me every step of the way!
