My Mission Blog

I am still a very huge advocate of helping girls understand the beauty of womanhood and the divine power that resides in them, however, I have decided to switch my blog over to my mission blog. I have been called to serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. And I am going to Norway! I'm still very shocked at my call. But, I will go where the Lord wants me to go, and apparently, He wants me to go to Norway. Woohoo!

Here's a little about my mission: 

This is President Evans and his wife, Sister Evans. Aren't they so cute? I think so. President Evans actually served his mission in Norway. Actually, my Grandpa Brown also served there. And Elder Cole Whitbeck from the Las Vegas Lakes Stake and Elder Jake Rolfson from my BYU ward this last year are both serving there already. Apparently it is going to be a party! 

Norway is really long and skinny and is way close to the North Pole. 
That means it is going to be very cold for this little vegas girl! It's a good thing the gospel brings warm fuzzies- otherwise I might have been in big trouble. I have big winter boots and a down parka that cost me more than a whole paycheck, and so I say, "bring on the winter, Scandinavia!" except for don't bring it on too much because the coldest I have lived in is Provo's last winter which I am told was weak-sauce. If I am serving Inland during the Winter, it could get colder than -40 degrees Fahrenheit. I may have to get myself one of these in addition to my Parka…
Although it is chilly, it sure is beautiful.



oh look! my first investigator! 


I am so thankful for the opportunity I have to serve the Lord as His official representative. Norway, here I come!
