Dear Family,
We have had the most wonderful Sunday. Went to a sacrament meeting with all of the elders and sisters who are leaving for Mongolia. We then went and watched TheSpoken Word and went straight into RS. We opened with a new version of The Sisters of Zion. It is a version for missionaries and beautiful. My kids know I always cry when I hear that song with the Army of Helaman. We had a surprised guest speaker, Sheri Dew. She spoke about the Priesthood and Women, not ordained women. Her explanation and talk was beyond wonderful, spiritual, uplifting etc. Every devotional, lesson, talk given here has strengthened our testimonies, and filled us with the spirit. We have 3 more hours this evening, two devotionals, and a special video with Elder Bednar that is only shown in the MTC. We are so excited and hopefully will get to sing Called to Serve again. RS had hundreds of women andtonite there will be thousands. Can’t wait. Just walking the halls and saying hi or hello to so many SMILING faces just lifts our spirits higher.We start our mission office classes tomorrow, including EXCEL and MIOS? Some special new program just for office help. We will be learning to do referrerals, transfers, whiny missionaries, and then leave here on Thursday afternoon and take off at 6:30 pm. We are sitting in a church building next to the MTC because we were the only ones that couldn’t connect over there. Thank goodness we have full access to this building. This is where the classes for seniors are taught.We pray for all of you each night and hope you do the same for us. We know the value of prayer.And by the way, we put all your names down when they asked for referrals for senior missionaries, don’t worry kids we didn’t refer you.
We love you,
Sister Higginson and Sister Cox
