Hello fall!
It's getting quite chilly up here in Atlantic Canada! Good thing I got the
light of Christ to keep me warm (getting cheesy is just a part of mission
life..I accept it)
This week was pure insanity! I think I was with Sister S.
like 1 full day all week!!
I had a leadership conference for two days this week...SO
FUN! It was basically all the leaders in the mission getting together, being
uplifted, singing campfire songs, and roasting marshmallows (: #blessed I
learned so so much!! One of my favorite trainings was about being yourself and
owning it! Be you, God doesn't want you to be anyone else...because if he did
he would have made you them..but no! You are you, so be it (:
Highlight of the week, I exchanged with the Halifax sisters
on Sunday so I got to go to my old ward! It was a blast!!! I got to see all my
old friends! Which was soooo fun!! They were all sooo confused why I was back
haha! I got to be with Laur and Belle!!! Woooo! On a mission you just make
friends that will last a life time!!!
Like my dearest Sister Bair!! Who I got to exchange with
yesterday (Monday). LOVE her!! We just have a party and a half together!! I am
so so sad she leaves in 2 weeks 😢 BUT that's all
good because we are both going to be at BYUI....oh yeah...I GOT IN💙💙!!!!
Life is great!! SO many miracles here and at home! Missions
are amazing!
-Sister McKell Hird
^^^^^
We had training on our names at leadership conf. it was
given by an Elder who just headed home! Something I love that he said was,
"I want you all to think of your first names....now don't shudder because
its not bad haha" (seriously it's the weirdest thing ever...as a
missionary somehow your first name gets all weird and feels wrong) The lesson
behind this and our names was that on a mission I've become better and
become, "Sister Hird" and somehow Sister Hird is not
McKell. Mckell has become who I was and Sister Hird is the new me....but
the problem with this?? Well, in 2 months I am going to be McKell again...which
means I am the old me....which is not good because new me is much cooler (;
Sooo I am going to work on being McKell again so that it becomes who I am, not
who I was☀
