that's
us at zone p day on New Years 2015
Time sure has flown. Sixteen and a half months ago, I started my mission by going to the Mexico MTC. Sister Peirce was my first companion. These are some pictures she had taken of our time together there.

Wow this transfer flew by!! We found out transfers today and I
found out that I'm going to stay in Austin for my last transfer!!! Woohoo!!!!
I'm so happy! We've got some amazing people we are teaching here and I'm so
happy that I get to see them for another month and a half! Sister Pierce gets
to go back to Lakeville, the only other area she's been in and she's really
happy that she gets to spend her last transfer there! My new companion will be
Sister Hunt, who I will get to meet on Wednesday (:
Well, there it is. My last transfer has finally come and now here comes the
best transfer ever! I'm really going to do my best to work hard
and enjoy every second of the last 6 weeks that I have out on the
mission! I know that missionary work won't stop here for me, but I'll be
sad to leave Minnesota (even though it is freezing cold here). There are
so many amazing blessings you get to see while on your mission. There's truly
nothing like it.
Oh, hey, Happy New Year everybody! It's finally 2015!
We had a really great New Year! It was our P-day and we
drove down to Rochester and had a game day with the entire Zone. We played
Dodge ball, 3 step, schmendricks (a game like charades), and volleyball.
Soooo much fun, it was a blast! We then went over to one of our members homes
and had a prime rib dinner with their family, the bishop, and Megan. I
don't think I've had anything better. yum, so good. We then had the ward
volleyball night and we played with the Poll family and Megan and Cennedeigh which
was just as great! I learned how to spike the ball, thanks to sister Poll, the
volleyball champ (: It was a wonderful way to start off the New Year.
We've met some new people this week and we got to meet with an
entire family from Burma, Thailand. They have two little girls who
are the cutest things ever! They came to church with us this week (even though
it was freezing cold and windy) and they loved it and asked if they could come
back! haha we of course said "yes!"
One thing I really love is getting to meet new people. There is
always someone you can serve and there is always something you can learn from.
It's amazing and I love it! I'm so grateful for the knowledge I have that
we are all related, we are all Gods children, because I just
want to hang out with these people that I meet all the time!!! It's gonna be so
much fun in heaven.
Well, I hope you all have a WONDERFUL New Year! Start it off
great and stick with it! Stay warm! It's below freezing here! The Minne-snow-ta
is back (; thank goodness for hand warmers!
Love you all!
Love, Sister Ficklin
