Sister Sloan heads 'SOUTH'.......

 Well, Sister Sloan received her '2nd mission call' on New Years Eve.  She called us with the exciting news that she would be transfered to...KNOXVILLE, TENNESSEE!!!!! All I can say is: "Hey Y'all..isn't this exciting???!!!  Here is an excerpt from her letter:


"So far things have been great! I got in late on wed. night and I think that was the only temple square withdrawls that I had. I went to Pres. Irions home and had dinner with him and his wife. When I arrived I had my interview with him. Everything was going well until they dropped me off at the apt and thats when it hit me... I realized that I wouldn't see a lot of the sisters from temple square again, either they will be home or outbound when I get back. I realized how close I got to them.  When you see them every day  they are like family to me, they are like my sisters and now I here I was in an unknown apt--no idea what it was going to be like out here realizing that I wont see a lot of the sisters any more. Unless I travel, after my mission, my only form of contact with them will be through FB or Email. So that first night in Tennessee was kinda hard, but I love it here now! My companions are great and I've been learning a lot from them. One Sister is sis. Martineau from Cali.  She is going home tomorrow but she is awesome and then my other comp is sis hollon from oregon.  She is super cool too. She is in her third transfer right now.
 I love tracting seriously! We haven't done too much of it yet but it has been great, not knowing who is going to answer the door for you. We have been teaching a few investigators/less actives which has been great. I love being able to spend time at member's homes.
On friday we had a zone conference which is completely different from our zone conferences on T2.
But it was so funny to see elders around us, it was pretty cool at the same time.
Oh I found out, the day that I arrived, that I will be helping out in the training of new sisters coming out in the field next transfer.  Apparently they are suppose to have alot arrive. This will be so much fun.  I am living in the west hills area...I think.  I really like it here and will take lots of pictures to show you what it looks like here."

Hoorah for Zion Sister Sloan.  Get out there andd teach those people in Tennessee!!! We love you!!
