Hey everyone!
So I am back on my mission and back to business as usual. Honestly it so nice to see my family and friends while being home but I am happy to be out. It was pretty hard to leave again and was probably the hardest goodbye of my life but God has a plan for all of us and sometimes we just need to trust that we are doing exactly what we are supposed to be doing. It's hard though haha.
All the people we flew with
Subway Lunch with Sister Higham! (the other sister that came to vernon with me)
So I arrived in Vancouver at 9 in the morning on wednesday and got to meet the mission president who is super nice! I also got to meet a sister who served in Tahiti (Zachs mission) which was super cool, and I forgot my phone at home but I hope to get that back soon and they have loaned me one for now! We had some trainings, a meal and then they told us who our companions were and where we were going!. Because I was taking a plane to my area my companion was not there and I got to spend another night in Vancouver. We flew in the morning and let me tell you, coming over the Okanagan river was soooooo beautiful. It is gorgeous here! And a huge tender mercy is that Sydney murphy is here too!! So we've been seeing a lot of each other which is really nice.
We are in phase 1 of missionary service here which means we can go into homes if we are invited and social distancing!!!! It has been so nice to get some human interaction and meet some of the members here. They are so kind to us!
My companion is Sister Greenwood and she is from Utah! Shes super energetic and outgoing and we are both pumped to do the work here. It'll be a good but tough transfer. We have already seen so many miracles which is awesome!
A super nice thing is that we go on hikes every day to just get out of the house and let some energy out! Like I said it's so beautiful here and so peaceful.
Hike!
Such a nice hike
Sister Murphy
beautiful
All the missionaries were talking about how small my apartment was going to be and I kept trying to tell them it couldn't have possibly been smaller than my apartment in thailand but they didn't believe me haha. When I first saw the place my first thought was "oh my gosh this is huge!". We actually have a separate room for sleeping and a bathroom that you can move around in! I'm living the dream up in here. We also drive too. Honestly it's a pretty cushy mission.
Oh and I introduced myself to a family as Rachael by accident because I'm still not used to calling myself sister clement again lol.
Well I'm still trying to adjust and keep a positive attitude, but I really am grateful to be here. I hope you all have an awesome week!
Love you,
Sister Clement
