Sister Tuckett at Temple Square

Hello Everyone!

Hope you are having a wonderful week! I am sad that this past transfer is almost gone! We find out about what is happening next transfer on Monday! I am going to miss Sister Alliaud!

So a little about this week! We went to the temple! It was great! It is such a great opportunity that we have on Temple Square to go to the temple and then to begin to teach others about it on the temple grounds! What a blessing!

I also got to announce on Sunday! It was fun! Before we started, a lady came up to me and asked if she could get a tour for her group of 28 people from Virgina! I said yes and we took them on a tour afterwards! They had so many great questions and we could have spent forever answering them, well we kinda did! Many other people joined too, and a couple from England and they were so interested! At the end of the 45 minute tour they said that they loved it and they felt the spirit! All of the ladies in the group came up and gave us a hug and we took pictures with them! The lady who asked for the tour said "I knew that we needed you to take us around and no one else!" Temple Square is such a great atmosphere to teach and testify! One of my favorite tours! Wonderful people!

And yesterday! Dad ~ I am happy to tell you that we took a family of 4 on a tour and they were from Bolivia! (Dave served his mission in the Bolivia La Paz Mission) I was so excited! I told them that I would go one day! Two of them gave us their contact information! They want to learn more and go to church when they get back home!

It has been a good week but also a very trying week! Almost all of our recent converts are going less active. They don't have the strong desire to be a member anymore. I have cried a lot trying to think of how I can help but what I have been feeling is that they need time, they will remember the feeling that they had when they were baptized and remember why they chose to get baptized in the beginning. Agency is a gift and all we can do is love and support them in it! God has a plan and in it he has provided us with learning experiences that shape us and lead us back to the path, but at times we take our own way. He lets us do our own thing but in the end He will help us back!

I love the Gospel, it changes hearts, it changes lives, and it changes everything as we LIVE IT!!

I love you all! Have a wonderful week!

Sister Tuckett

She only sent these 4 pictures this week. PROMISED ME more pictures next week!

She is filling out her departure papers! It is getting closer! She isn't ready to come home yet, though! She loves her mission!!!

Just as we were about to end our emailing I saw that Elder Scott (one of the 12 Apostles for our church) passed away today. She had not heard about it yet. This will be the 3rd apostle in less than 6 months. Most of the sister missionaries are able to attend the funeral.

Her district!

She is the district leader over these sisters.
