Helloooooo Toronto!

In Toronto!

Sister Hall made it to Toronto on Monday this week! And in full missionary fashion...she ended up needing to borrow money from other missionaries for her luggage and a calling card to phone home. Whoops!  It appears that she took the scripture about traveling without purse or script too literally:). She and 9 other sisters and 8 other elders all flew on the same flight to the Toronto, Canada Mission where they were greeted by their mission president. Sister Hall was able to phone home while in the Toronto airport and got to talk to mom! Dad and I were at work. She said she is doing great and talked about the gospel the whole plane ride with the lady sitting next to her (who happened to be in management for the Toronto Maple Leafs!...she offered to set Lauren up with some cute, young 20yr olds! Hahaha)

We received a letter from Sister Hall's mission president today, President Scott. He said that Lauren is full of enthusiasm (surprise!) and her testimony is evident. Her trainer is Sister Williams, and it looks like they've already hit it off! Her first area is in Hamilton, which happens to be the stake that one of mom's best friends lives in! So Sister Hall will be seeing a familiar face in her first area, which will be comforting I'm sure. She also has a new current address.

You can all mail her at:

11 Kendale Court #504
Hamilton, ON
L9C 2T7
Canada

Or email at:  lauren.hall@myldsmail.net

We are so proud Sister Hall!! We look forward to her email about her first week in the field! Promise to keep you posted:)

Sister Hall and her trainer, Sister Williams!
