Sister Call here. Reporting to you all the way from the Mustang Oklahoma City Library. Tis official. I'm now living in Yukon (right next to the Temple!!!). Our area covers half of Mustang and a large section of Yukon. It's crazy! I haven't really been around traffic or even STOP LIGHTS for that matter for almost 5 months now. It'll take a bit, but I'll get there. :)
There was actually a set of Elders in our ward along with us last transfer, but President ended up pulling them out this transfer and he's having us take over their area along with ours. Crazy! Needless to say, it's a rather large area now. The member missionary work in the Ward is AMAZING! Seriously, at the beginning of every activity or class the question is asked "What missionary experiences have people had this week"? !! Everyone loves the missionaries and they're all telling us about their friends that they're 'working on' and are going to have them meet with the missionaries soon. GAH! Referrals are only the best.
We were blessed to be able to go to Jan's baptism yesterday back down to my beloved Paul's Valley. It was like I'd been gone for a year by the way everyone acted around me. I love Paul's Valley! But anyways. Jan Elrod was baptized. She made the first covenant to be able to return to her Father in Heaven. I began to cry, watching her go down under the water, because I feel like I'm still just barely beginning to grasp the importance of our work out here. Jan's going to have that lasting happiness and eternal perspective that this gospel brings. She's going to be able to return home! I hope there never comes a day that I take this work seriously for, I know we've heard it before, but this is truly our brother's and sister's salvation. I'm honored to be out here aiding in this glorious work. I know I'm growing and coming to know and love my Savior more every day. I'll never regret going on a mission.
I love and pray for you all everyday!

Sister Bishop, Downing, then sis Call.
Don't worry. Sister Bishop is hilarious. And was extremely happy then.
A bee was just trying to fight her right then and she was distracted
