Mesa Arizona Temple

Mesa Arizona Temple
This is where I will serve part of my mission. It's so beautiful!

I'm going on a MISSION!!!!

As you all know I will be serving for the next 18 months in the Arizona Mesa Mission. My mission not only includes proselyting but also the Arizona Temple Visitor's Center. The best part is I get to learn Spanish! I'm so excited for the experiences I will have over these next 18 months. I would love to hear from everyone...seriously! I will write back those who write me so keep those letters coming, I know I am going to need them! Missionary work is tough. Once I leave on June 4th I will most likely not be able to keep up on the blog so I am putting my mom and sister in charge of that. They will post pictures and hopefully any emails I send. So keep updated on my crazy life these next 18 months. I'm so excited to get out and teach the gospel, it is going to be amazing! Thanks to everyone who has influenced my decision to go or who have supported me in my decision. You guys are awesome. I love you all!

Recent Photos of Hermana Smith......

Here are some recent photos that Brittany has sent home.... I know that what she is doing is HARD WORK however, some of these photos look like they are having a bit of fun and being SPOILED along the way.... :0) However, there are great rewards in serving a mission and quite a few "MIRACLES" along the way as Hermana Smith says!!!

Francisco Arus, Hermana Smith (L) & Hermana Bingham on Franciscos baptism day!
"Sometimes you have to beat people up to ge them into the font.... whatever it takes."
I bet you didn't know I tried out for "so you think you can dance?" this year.... unfortunately I was declined due to the fact I couldn't be transfered to L.A....

"I bet you didn't know I had super hero powers such as flying!"

I went on a training with Hermanas Colon & Parkus for my Birthday and look what they gave me..... a bed made from couch cushions, my pillow and a bag of dirty laundry... :0)

These are called Pupusas.... they are from El Salvador and YUMMY!

"What meanth the iron rod..? It was the word of God; and whoso would hearken unto the word of God, and would hold fast unto it, they would never perish, neither could the temptations and the fiery darts of the adversary overpower them unto blindenss, to lead them away to destruction." 1 Nephi 15:23-24

This is Hattie.... She is such a cutie! I wish you could see her 2 missing teeth!

Sister Valentino likes to make cake for us .... it's GOOD!

Sister Valentino didn't want us sleeping in HOT clothes so she bought us all pj's.... (Hermana Smith and Bingham live in an apartment at the Valentino's home!!!) They are truly spoiled there.

I have conquered the WORLD! ......

"Lovest thou me..... Feed my sheep." John 21:17

One day we all must die on the mission.... But I'm still kicking! 6 months to work soooo hard!

"And at all times, and in all places, he shall open his mouth and declare my gospel as with the voice of a trump, both day and night. And I will give unto him strength such as is not known among men." D&C 24:12

Irrigation football.... the closest thing to swimming I could get. It was dirty and I'm pretty sure we ruined their lawn!!!
