THE BLOG.
Let me give you a little run down of how Saturday went.
6:30
am. wake up. First thought that runs through my head, "Oh my gosh we get
transfer calls today." Needless to say, I was stressed. This phone call
basically determines your life. All morning Sister Hansen and I are
stressing, yet telling ourselves that we are staying and that we won't
get a phone call until late at night.
WHAT?!?
Here are the things I've heard about Potsdam. (Aka what every single person has told me)!
-Its cold.
-I'm going to freeze.
-I will turn into an Eskimo.
-I better have a warm coat.
-I will probably be able to see the northern lights.
-It's cold.
and my personal favorite...
-that sounds like a really gross soup.
So
yup. Potsdam is waaaaaaaay up near the Canadian border. Haha perfect
place for winter. But in all reality, I'm way excited to be going there.
As for being a STL, (Sister Trainer Leader), I'm way nervous. I've been having a lot of anxiety
about the whole matter, but I also know that I can be strengthened through
Christ.
This morning while getting ready the song, "Come, Come, Ye Saints," came on. The second verse hit me hard...
Why should we mourn or think our lot is hard?
Tis not so; all is right.
Why should we think to earn a great reward
If we now shun the fight.
Gird up your loins; fresh courage take.
Our God will never us forsake;
And soon we'll have this tale to tell-
All is well! All is well!
I am excited for this new chapter of my mission in the
frozen tundra of Potsdam where I will be able to see Canada. I love the
gospel. This church is true. Amen.
XOXO,
Sister Langford
