Mom,
I just wanted to say THANK YOU! If it wasn't for you and dad I wouldn't be here. I wouldn't be where I am at today! I know that this experience has and will change the rest of my life. Thank you for loving me, for raising me in the gospel, for encouraging me, for helping me see my worth and MORE! God is ALWAYS aware of us! He knows the desires of our hearts. Eight weeks will go by fast and then I get to come home and apply ALL the things that I have learned. I know that I am awful at writing but I will share EVERYTHING when I get home!
Love,
Sister Tuckett xoxo
I guess she is serious about not emailing me a letter! She is going to write me a letter today and send it. So,, I guess you will (hopefully) get to hear it next week! But,, she sent me some pictures that you can look at! I also got a picture from my cousin and some info off of the mission blog.
My cousin and his family went to Temple Square and found Sister Tuckett!
Thank you Janie, Blaine and Tyler!
From the Mission Blog:
“While Sister Wu (Hong Kong) played sacred hymns on the piano
everyone sat reverently waiting for
Apostle Jeffrey R. Holland to join us in our Relief Society this
morning. Everyone arose from bed earlier
so we could be in our seats in Theater 1 at SVC, at 6:45am.
Elder Holland extended his love to us by having each one of us
file past him so he could shake our hand as we told him our name and where we
were from. He later told us that he
didn’t do that so he could learn our name or try to remember where we were from,
but it was a quick interview to look into our eyes and feel of our spirit. As we each filed past him Sister Wu continued
her quiet playing that added to the spirit of the meeting. Elder Holland
thanked us for our service and went on to teach us about the Book of Mormon and
why it is the keystone of our religion. It was wonderful to learn from the
teachings of an apostle.”
Sister Tuckett said: "He talked about the Book of Mormon! it was so good! "The Book of Mormon is Revelation about Revelation!" And that Salvation cannot come without Revelation."

Oct. 24th
Temple Sq. Sisters had eight weeks to prepare
for the 5K challenge. The challenge was accepted with excitement and a desire
to become more fit, healthy and energetic so that we can be more effective
missionaries on Temple Square! President Harmon “Socked it to us” by providing
everyone with their first pair of running socks so as to avoid those nasty
blisters we all hate. Our theme became:
"FIT
FOR THE KINGDOM".
We could choose our pace; to run, walk/jog,
or just walk. Our route was around the
Utah Capitol building, down Gravity Hill and through the Canyon. Very scenic!! It all ended with a great breakfast bash at
Brigham Young Park.
She has a silly face in the background and I asked her about it.
She said she was drinking water and was mid swallow!
The rest are pictures she sent me.
Announcing on Sunday morning after "Music and the Spoken Word".
