Markee's Mississippi Mission: I am a sad person

I am pretty sad because I have been transferred!

6 weeks is not a long time especially when you love the area that you are in. Sister Williams is also being transferred. They have a lot of new missionaries coming in, sisters in particular, and they need places to train them and since Petal is a wonderful place to be they chose to move us.

Oh well, it will be great here! I will make the most of it!

Heavenly Father wants me here so I will be happy because he knows what is best for me.

I will miss Petal and all the members there. They have all blessed my life in great ways and I definitely want to go back there!

So sorry it was been so long. I didn't email on the 4th and yesterday was transfer day.

We had the best last weekend! On Sunday night we went to the train station and took pictures of the Petal missionaries and then Monday we had a district p-day!

I know that y'all have already seen what happened for the 4th but let me just tell you that that was the funnest p-day EVER! We had a blast!

Also our team won in Slip-n-slide kickball.

Then we had dinner with the Ishees, and then said goodbye. It was sad.

Also Sunday when we said goodbye to Joel was the saddest thing I have ever done. It broke my heart!

Transfers came and Sister Williams went to Shreveport and I kind of chilled at Hattiesburg until the transfer van to.....Drumroll please....................................................Gulfport! I am now in Biloxi!

Go ahead look it up and see how close I am to the ocean and be jealous! ;)

I am with Sister Rose from Colorado and she is awesome!

I have been really blessed to have great companions!

So while waiting some things happened. First of all and worst of all; I got eaten by ants and now I am feeling miserable about that! My feet are swollen and itchy and gross. I hate it! Ants down here are vicious!

Second and saddest of all; I texted Joel one last time! He is the sweetest!

When I got to Biloxi Sister Rose and I discovered that we are going to be great friends! We also had dinner with the Ward Mission Leader here, Brother Davis. He is cool. I don't know much about him yet.
