Things are going great in Carson City! We have someone set with a baptismal date!!! The first few weeks here were hard because the records weren't the best and being double transferred in provided a lot of challenges. Thankfully, we've worked through a lot and now we have some solid investigators! It feels sooooo good to be teaching people!
We spoke in church yesterday in one of our wards here and we'll be speaking in the other one this upcoming Sunday! It was soooo great to speak to the people of the ward about missionary work! We feel like it did a lot and the members are starting to trust us a lot more. We want to get these wards super missionary oriented! We've been working a lot with them and it's been so awesome. The members of the church are amazing wherever you go!
I can't believe I've been on my mission for 7 months now!! It's sooooo crazy! The time really does fly! Missions are amaaaaaaaaaaazing!!!!

It's March 5! My mom's birthday. Woot Woot! Shout out to Mom. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE YOU!
In other news.....HUGE news.....
My mission is splitting!
They've made the announcement of the Nevada Reno Mission!!!!!!
This is great because it means that the work is rolling forward!!! It shows that the apostles have confidence in us too! :) Right now the mission's split up into the north and the south halves. President Black has often said he feels like he's running two missions because they're so spread out. So this new mission is basically splitting the two halves up. It's soooo crazy! The changes are effective July 1st.
We had a leadership training meeting in the north half of the mission on Saturday and that's when President Black made the announcement to all the missionaries that were there. It was crazy. We were all freaking out!!! Our first thought was "what does this mean for ussssss?!?!?!?!?!" haha. We don't know many details yet. Some of us will stay up north and some of us will stay down south. The changes are 3 transfers away, so they have a lot of preparations to do. President Black will have lots of decisions to make! We'll find out more details as they come along but for now we don't know very much.
All the missionaries are excited for the work but sad that we'll be split up. It's all so bittersweet. Nobody wants to leave the NVLVW mission but we all know that it's all SOOOOOOOOOOOOO inspired. There will be a ton of changes in the next few months so it's going to be suuuuuuuuuuuper exciting!!!
