Sam's second email

Hello All!
The time is ticking already...but thank you so so much for all the letters and taking the time out to think of me! A lot has happened in the very short two weeks I have been here...and some days are definitely better than others. But things are good. My companion and I are literally inseparable. I just got called as the new coordinating sister yesterday and we had to be separated for only two hours...I felt like I missed out on so much! But the new calling will be good. A little intimidating, but good. We fly out next Monday (June 27) and we have to be at the office at 3:00 a.m. We fly out at 6:00 a.m. I am going to try and call...we will see how it goes. Just a fun few facts for y'all. Sister Johnson's birthday was on Monday (June 13th)...we shared a scripture in her honor. John 1:14, we changed the "his" to "her." We counted how many stairs we walk up and down the other day, it was around 879. Buns or thighs of steel!:) The ankles are getting better. Sister Wixom came last Tuesday...she talked about primary stuff and said that the elders are cool...but the sisters are the shizam. The elders are like whole new men! They have grown up so much...but they still make farting noises...so they aren't that mature. Their girlfriends really do spray their letters...hilarious. The new missionaries came on Wednesday...more will be here in two days. Somewhere around 500 new missionaries. Oh and the presidency will be here! So exciting! I met a sister the other day who is going to Independence, MO, I told her to watch for Kenz and tell her Sammit said hello. An elder in our district wrote on the board the other day and spelled the word prophet like this, "profit." I am so excited to be here and the miracles are already happening. We are trying to be obedient! But we will be better! My time is short...but thank you so much again for everything! The gospel is true...and I am in awe of its wonders more and more everyday! Watch for letters! Love you all!
Sister Oliverson
