Missionary girl....





Well, Danelle has bee gone approx. seven months now and we miss her so much. She has had some challenging times and we have learned to appreciate her strengths and stamina in standing steadfast in the Gospel. Her testimony has grown leaps and bounds while she has had to work out these challenges and keep focused on eternal principles. She wants more than anything to teach the love of Christ to his children and we pray each day she has the opportunity to do that! Sometimes I worry that she is "down" and we can't talk to her but I just pray extra hard for her and hope she can feel it. There are so many blessings that come from a missionary in the field and we are getting those individually and as a family. We miss her terribly but here from those around her and in her ward boundaries how much they love her and appreciate her helping them. Sometimes your mission is not to do the things you think.....but additional things that will prepare you for "eternal callings".
