A change in leadership

This week President Hansen and his wife, who have been serving in the Texas Houston Mission for three years, will return to their home in Arizona and leave the 'keys of the kingdom' in the hands of President Pingree and his wife.

I'm a little sad, because I might not see them again for a while and also I've had the same Mission President for my entire mission. But I am excited to get to know President Pingree in my last six weeks here. He and his wife sound very sweet, and they are bringing their five children with them so that will be different. And I know that they have been prepared by the Lord to serve with us at this time in Houston Texas. I know my mission will be in good hands.

In other news: it's really hot! (Okay not new news) The humidity has spiked even though we haven't gotten a lot of rain, that's what makes July even worse. I'm hoping for a few epic storms before I head out though. And next week is the 4th of July, so I'll be emailing on Tuesday instead. I hope you all have fun plans in mind! So far our Zone has another BBQ planned, the last one was pretty fun so I'm excited!

Other than that there's not a whole lot of new information, just that we should have a baptism this next weekend. Yay! We're trying to think of a gift for him, because he is always going back and forth because of work and that he said he's sick of eating pure hamburgers we're thinking of buying a couple little microwave-able meals. He lives in a hotel because of work, so can't really cook for himself. Hopefully he likes that!!

Everyone have a fun and safe 4th!
