The New Ward

Ok, people, just so you know, you have 17 posts to read before you're caught up. I know, I know, I'm awful at blogging and moving at the same time! :) Who is good at it, honestly? If you want to, read from the bottom up, because the posts are backwards chronologically.

Our new ward is only 1.8 miles away from our house! It's so great. The group is pretty similar to our old ward. Some singles, some older couples, a few widows, some young families, and young couples. We also have about 15 young women, which is huge compared to our last ward of only 4! We got there late, but we already know that we are going to love this ward. Everyone is SO friendly and introducing themselves to us. The sunday school teacher and priesthood and RS teachers were incredible. I really admire the cohesiveness of this ward. Everyone seems to get along. And the missionary work is incredible! Wow, there were at least 3 investigators in church. The stake's goal is for us to bring an investigator once a year. Jordan commented that he could bring a person every month. The missionaries live right down the street from us, so once we get a table and chairs, we're going to have them over for dinner. We are so excited to be here! I could go on and on. Richmond has a cannery too, so I'll be able to get some food storage set up while we're here. Yay for a great ward!
