We got to Skype Sister Ricks yesterday and it was great to hear from her! Here are some things she shared...
1. The weather is crazy there, she has yet to see a day without rain! It was ok at first but it's getting a little old!
2. The diet is crazy, they eat French fries (chips) with EVERYTHING! She never thought she'd get so tired of potatoes!
3. She loves the way they talk, every thing is a wee little something or other, even a handout in church!
4. Ireland is a country where A LOT of people go to earn college degrees so she has been able to meet a lot of people from many difference backgrounds and cultures which has been a great learning experience.
5. Her testimony has grown by leaps and bounds, she is amazed at all of the things she has learned thus far and can't wait to keep learning more about the gospel.
Sister Ricks is still feeling a little homesick and has some physical aliments as well that is making missionary work a little hard for her right now. She knows that this is where she is supposed to be and that she is sharing the gospel, but needs our love and prayers sent her way. Thank you for all of your love for Kinz, please continue to pray for her safety, health and comfort while she is learning to navigate life in a whole new world.
