Update From Kate

Katelyn never starts her letters with "Dear Mom and Dad" or any sort of greeting. She just starts right in to answering the questions we asked in our e-mail. And her e-mails are still pretty short. Here is this week's report...


It rained yesterday, it was really nice. It was pretty funny to see that literally no one on the road. But it has been getting into the 80's here. Keep an eye on Facebook, I'll have some pictures up eventually.

Oh my goodness, the members here LOVE us! We have 2 wards in our area and apparently they haven't had sister missionaries for like 12 years, so they spoil us big time. They also feed us a ton of food. Every dinner is followed with a very rick dessert. My companion (Sister Davies, she's from Pocetello) said that she's gained 20 pounds from food and muscle from biking. We do get a car but we're limited to 400 miles a month, so that means we can only drive 13 miles a day. We bike/walk a lot. But if a member sees us walking they usually pull over and offer to give us ride no matter where it is we're going. They'll even wait for us outside if we're planning on teaching someone. It's pretty crazy.

So this is crazy. We already had a baptism on the 28th and we have 2 more on date for April 4th and 3 more committed to baptism. Things move pretty quickly.

PS
Also, could you put some extra money on my card? We need to buy a gps. Both of us are directional-y challenged and getting lost doesn't help with limited miles.
