Monday, February 25, 2013. Living modern-day revelation by a living prophet. This week on "Sister Mortensen's Crazy Life as a Missionary:". Soooooooooooo. I'm training a 19-year-old! Sister Price, from Emmett, Idaho. She was in the first wave of 19-year-old sister missionaries to go on their missions and was the 6th youngest sister in the MTC, because she entered the MTC 23 days after she turned 19. Yep, she was 18 until December! She graduated this past year, in 2012! Also, last night I got to sing in a...

Monday, August 26, 2013. My brain is moving at extra slow speeds today so you will have to forgive me if this email is a bit odd. This week was super awesome and super crazy and I again am just really freaking tired. I mean, just tired. I am trying not to say freaking anymore. Did I tell you that Sister Chipman and I fasted the first week of the transfer? We made pretty specific Vision, Goals and Plans for our area for the transfer and then fasted and the blessings are pouring down from heaven. Okay the ...

Monday, January 28, 2013. Once upon a time. it got really cold. So, it seems as the whole country is cold right now, yeah? The weather definitely shifted this week here. It went from a little chilly to like. really cold. The kind of cold when you walk outside, your bones start hurting and then you think you will never get warm again in your whole life. Yeah. Ok, so maybe I'm being a little dramatic. This week was pretty crazy. First, I should tell you that I love New York! So cool, right? Service days...

Hermana Mortensen: March 2013
http://hermanamortensen.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 25, 2013. Speaking of that, everyone should listen or read the talk called "The Law of Increasing Returns" by Elder Eyring. Shannon gave it to me, along with a bunch of other talks on CD's, and this is one that I listen to A LOT. It applies to missionary work but also to life. Here's some highlights that I love:. Tonight we’re going to try to understand one universal challenge: How to keep waiting and working when the harvest seems delayed. So look for the chance to smile.". Well, it seems ...

Monday, November 26, 2012. Feliz dia de accion de gracias! I hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving and ate a lot of food! My Thanksgiving week was full of lots of food, fun, and service! Can't think of a better way to spend the holiday actually. Thursday night, we only had one DA, which was kind of unusual. But last year, Sis. Tanielu had 3 and so she was like, never again!

Monday, December 30, 2013. Wow It feels like forever since our little Skype session. Thanks. For the wonderful chat. Sorry that I am weird and anxious and crazy. The great news is that we had a fabulous week! Besides the fact I ate. Two bowls of cereal with spoiled milk and was down and out on Friday. Apparently I don't have taste buds but my tummy was sure mad at me). We only did one exchange this week on account that we had Christmas. Like us and were bad mouthing us- I may or may not have cried a few.
