Short but Sweet

Hello from Biloxi!
Today is kind of crazy because it's transfers day and we have a very limited time to email. 
Sister Thomas was sick for a couple days this week, so it kind of hindered our work, but we still had a lot to show for it at the end of the week.  We thought we were going to have a ton of less actives and investigators come to church and a baptism but then they ALL cancelled! Broke my heart and my spirits for a little bit, but Heavenly Father provides.  It made me sit down and reevaluate my effort and the way we are approaching missionary work.  We have found a couple knew potentials but I don't want to write anything about them until we have some more solid information about them.
I realized that I haven't said anything about my companions yet.  Sister Keyes is my trainer.  She's really fun and dedicated to the work.  She keeps me in line, and I keep her relaxed.  Sister Thomas is super sweet.  She is the one who was in the MTC with me and is also waiting for her visa.  We sometimes have communication issues and we're learning to teach together as a group of 3, but we also have a lot of fun. 
Okay, have to go.  Sorry my email stinks.  Until next week!
Sister McElderry
