haha oh man this place is interesting =) I've never seen so many tatoos, mullets, and camo clothes in my entire life! My area includes Stevensville, Florence, and Victor--doubt they would even be on a map if you wanted to check them out though, ha. Its a pretty small town but there are 2 wards here. As I was getting on the airplane I met a pro-golfer who has a summer home in Montana and was on his way home from a tournament and he was really nice and said there are some nice mormons on the tour with him...meeting him made me excited to go to Montana. Then the guy I sat by, we talked for an hour about the Book of Mormon; he grew up going to Christian schools and had a lot of misconceptions so it was nice to clear them up and share my testimony. I could see out of the corner of my eye a guy leaning forward to hear our conversation too=) I thought I wouldn't know how to be a missionary outside of Temple Square, but I am so grateful to know that my calling is the same no matter where I am--to invite others to come unto Christ. I still have lots of butterflies in my stomach because I just don't know what to expect but I know it will be great. My companion is Sister Reyes from Texas. She is very sweet and she has been in the area for 10 weeks and says this is her favorite area so far. Today is p-day so we went to walmart for groceries and cleaned the apartment a bit. Next Wed I will be emailing around 11am. In 2 weeks I will find out if I stay or if I am being transferred somewhere else. We have a few appointments this evening-ahhhhhhh! Pray for me!!!!
LOVE, Sister Olsen
