Hello family and friends! This week was a rollercoaster of emotions! I was VERY VERY Sad to leave Regina. It was hard to say goodbye to the people there. I have grown too attached I guess! I also wasnt able to be at Lill's baptism on Saturday which was pretty hard. But I hear it was a success! So what matters most is that she got baptized and is now on her way to the temple! It was a pretty stressful week before transfers happened. We had so many appointments and were trying to get everything done that we needed to. On Wednesday President Craig called and said that they might have a way that I could stay for the baptism! I got super excited. We were just going to delay the transfer of me and another sister and have us drive to winnipeg on saturday evening. But it was going to be too late so we ended up not being able to do it. That was disappointing. It's okay though! I think everything went smoothly and they had a lot of support from the ward! Plus her grandson from St. George surprised them and drove up!

I made it through my first weekend in Winnipeg. I am serving in the Waverley ward. So far all of my areas have started with "W" so hopefully I can keep this pattern going! There is another set of missionaries in our ward. The AP's, which is a bit intimidating! It seems like a good ward so far though. It's hard adjusting to a new area, especially because I think my heart is still in Regina. I know everything will be okay though! My new companion is named sister madsen. She is from Mapleton, Utah. She is the most down to earth person ever! She is also on her last transfer so I will be "killing" her. Hopefully I don't get too "trunky", another missionary term:)
Some exciting news! Yesterday in sacrament meeting they announced that President Nelson, his wife, and Elder Andersen would be visiting winnipeg in August!!! I should still be here so hopefuly I will get to meet them! That would be a wonderful experience!! Super exciting:) I love and miss you all and hope you have a wonderful weeK!
Love, Sister Godderidge
