It's A Dry Heat
Hello!
So my new area consists of Black Canyon City, New River, Daisy Mountain, North Valley, and goes right around Anthem. We have super nice apartments called Ironhorse (whoever named the streets and places here tried to be very Native American...there's tons of streets like topaz rd, turquoise st, amethyst dr, squaw valley trail, etc) Our church building is right across the street from a nudist colony called Shangri la 😂😂 so that's different. Anyway, the majority of my area is desert. Whatever you picture when you think of Arizona, that's my area. I love it!! So many cacti and mountains and desert heat. Everyone keeps saying "its a dry heat!" then makes a comment comparing it to either an oven, or fire and brimstone and all that good stuff. Haha. I don't think the heat is that bad, but I was definitely spoiled in Prescott with their perfect weather.
I'm soo excited about my new calling as a Sister Training leader (STL) because I will get to go on exchanges in my first area!! 😁😁 For those who don't know what an STL is, its a leadership position where I get the opportunity to go to leadership meetings and council with the mission president and other leaders about how we can improve as a mission. I also get to go on exchanges (switch companions for a day) to minister to and learn from sisters in other areas! I will also update them on any announcements we discuss at leadership meetings: leadership training meeting (LTM) and mission leadership council (MLC).
We have a car, which is nice, because the main traveling we do in our area is on the I-17 and other freeways and its about 30 miles long.
I've already been asked to sing in sacrament meeting in 2 weeks haha so I'm happy I think I will have lots of opportunities to share that talent here.
