Hey!

Wow!  I can’t believe the energy & excitement here!  Everyone is so happy.  It has been a little overwhelming, but again so exciting.  I have already seen many familiar faces.  My companion is Sister Schwantes.  She & the other four sisters in my dorm room are all headed to Berlin.  We’re all excited to work hard.

Mom & Dad, thank you so much for helping me get here including all of the last minute things.  I was stressed before, but as soon as I got out of the van I felt calm.  So just FYI, there were about 800 new missionaries today.  Kinda crazy, but so cool!  The closing song for the MTC welcome devotional was “Army of Helaman.”  I thought it was really cool that they changed the lyrics from “we will be the Lord’s missionaries” to “ we are now the Lord’s missionaries.”  That was kinda when it hit me.  The Spirit here is so strong.  It is unlike anything I could have imagined & there is no other place I would rather be than right here, right now.

Love you all!

Sister Turner
