Walked out of the terminal and past security, and saw missionaries with tags and quickly recognized President Anderson. I had such a huge smile!!

3. How did you feel about the people you meet the first day?
The spirit was so strong, immediately I could fee their enthusiasm and flame for the work. Elder Neally (AP) gave a pass along card to the man at the airport who took our picture. Another Elder asked the lady in the toll booth if he could get her information and come by and bless her house. How amazing. President Anderson is just outstanding, loving, and personable. Sister Anderson is even more so. Wow, they are so great!!

4. what is making you happy right now?

Lose yourself in the work and find yourself at the same time. The only way home is through exact obedience. Give em heaven. There are millions of people waiting to be baptized in Florida, I just need to open my mouth.
