7th Transfer: Week 4 ~ Christmas and the Caves!

Me and my kids. They RUN to our car every time we come yelling "Sisters! Sisters!"
 They are so excited! My little babies:)

It was good to see you all on Skype!! It was nice to see my family!! Seeing you all was the biggest blessing. I was so glad to hear all about your Christmas! I am glad that it was a good one!! Brittany got an Ipad?! I cannot believe that!That is crazy my mom. But you are just so thoughtful. I am glad she was grateful for getting that. As for the Wii u?? I have never heard of that but that doesn't surprise me because I have almost been out for 10 months. That is quite a long time but time is flying by soooo fast!!!

Christmas Eve:)

As for my Christmas I absolutely LOVED everything that you got me!! I CRIED when I saw the calendar!! You would have thought someone died. I didn't expect to see my family made a sign for me!! Oh my goodness I was so happy. And I have ALWAYS told Sister Dill that I want a calendar. So I got pictures and a calendar which is perfect!! Thank you so much :) I LOVED my SKIRTS and my shirts. I have been wearing them!! I was so happy to see that you got my green skirt because my other one broke. Thanks so much!! AND THE CANDY, yeah I downed those things. I have gained so much weight this Christmas I tell you. Thank you for my scripture covers!! I put them on immediately!! I just LOVE THEM they're so pretty! Thank you mom and dad! OHHH and how can I forget my FAMILY PHOTO ALBUM! Oh my goodness I look at that almost every day! I love it so much! Also, I JUST LOVED dads sleigh!! Nothing was broken when it got to me! Thank you for everything! I do need a new

scripture case though. So whenever you get the chance, could you send me a new scripture case? My handles popped off. haha. 

We went to Lisa and Andrew's house for Christmas dinner! Lisa served us crab salad, peas and rice, honey roasted ham and turkey with some bubbly drink! I loved the dessert. It was brownies and mint chocolate chip ice cream. Yum!

It is a privilege for me to be out on my mission, I have really learned to try and keep my eye single to the glory of God. I have learned that we all have to go through hardships to grow spiritually. I think about Alma and the sons of

Mosiah and their trials all of the time!! This life

Christmas Dinner:)_

is not a walk in the park, it was never intended to be that way. Without walking on some thorns once in a while we wouldn't learn to watch out where we are going. We wouldn't learn our lesson. We have to continue to learn. I have been reading the New Testament but now I am getting back into reading the Book of Mormon. This will be my 3rd time! I am hoping that when I get back home I will continue to have the desire to read the Book of Mormon as well as the other books we have been given. As I do that,"hardships" won't seem too hard. My main focus is eternal life with my Father in Heaven. The pioneers went through so much but what was their main focus? Doing the will of the Father (not their own) just as our Exemplar, our Savior Jesus Christ did when he was on the earth. He accomplished his mission and we all need to try and accomplish ours.

Something that I have been thinking about is why do people wait for New Years to change? We all need to start now. It always reminds me of the parable of the 10 virgins. We always need to be prepared. We know neither the time nor day when the Savior will be coming. We need to always keep the Savior in our thoughts. When we do that, our actions will be more like our Saviors. We will act the way He wants us to. Our relationship with him and the Father will increase as we consistently strive to become like Him.

Christmas lights in our neighborhood:)

Kevin, Jerome, and Eddie are now progressing and working towards their baptismal dates! Kevin came to church last Sunday! woohoo! I really hope that I can stay in Nassau for another transfer. I will be really sad when I have to leave.

But I love you all and am so glad that all is well and everyone is staying safe and healthy! Oh, and also I got your box all together!! I will be sending your Christmas Box from me today through DHL. So you all should be getting it! That stinks that Chandler and Brittany will be gone but if you don't mind could you send

More Christmas Lights!

them their gifts? I keep forgetting that I have older siblings and they are out of the house. Thank you:)

Today I will be taking Sister Dill and Sister Lewis to Fort Fincastle, Queens staircase and to see my water tower that is sooo old. I already took pictures of me there. You have seen my pictures of my water tower and of Fort Fincastle, so its not too exciting but the other sisters want to go and see those things. Hopefully next p-day will be more exciting.

Tell the family that I love them!!! and you all have a wonderful week!! You all should be getting a box soon! I don't know when but you will be getting one from Santa from the BAHAMAS!! LOVE YOU ALL! have a great NEW YEARS!

Keep Pressing Forward!! :) (Tell Adam and Chandler to be safe traveling back!!) 

Love, Sis Judd  

Sister Lewis was excited about my C.D's that you got me! I was too. 
She was sitting at my study desk.

Christmas Day we were also doing service by making cupcakes at Sister Cheryls house. That is her kitchen but she also runs a business.

Sister Dill and Sister Bailey.... what they do for Service!! 
Absolutely NOTHING!! hahaha ! Just kidding.
This was our inside joke for the day.

Sister Cheryl's Cake that she decorated! Looks so good!


I gave your CD and card to Shanae and her family!

I had to take at least one picture of me doing the good deed :) Good idea that you had mom! They all loved the C.D! 

Dre also got a spider man from Santa that is almost
 the same height as him! hahaha!

Sister Bailey was cold in the car and she used your Santa hats to warm her up.
 I had to take a picture of that! 

We went to the caves last P-Day! 

These caves are so funnnn. There is no one there to watch you. They are historical caves that we can go down into the ground and explore on our own. We climbed over rocks and things. Back in the day, pirates and indians used to live in there. The pirates would also hide in there from the law. Cool history fact. 

The Caves!


This is the entrance to the cave. 

You think the cave is small right?  You go underneath the ground into this small hole and you are in this deep dark cave! It's really big and a lot of fruit bats are in there. One time I got chased. haha!

Sister Dill and Bailey just chillin on top of the chair, no problem.

Me and Sister Bailey:)

Me and Sister Dill with our Santa Hats

The history of the caves.
Thought you would like reading that mom. Just for you! haha

Downtown Nassau on our way home!

So I decided to take pictures of the things that we pass every P-Day. Here are our
wonderful Tourist Attractions!

This is Bahamar! When it's done in a couple of months, it will be
the biggest tourist attraction in Nassau.


My favorite view of Bahamar

Here is Junkanoo Beach (which is on your Bay Street mom). Haha 

This is the beach that alllllll the tourists come to. 

As for us missionaries we have our personal beach :) 

Here is this massage place on the Junkanno Beach. I laughed when I saw this!! If you look on the menu on the building you can see the specials they have with the different costs. HAHA!! It's like a little shack. I would not trust that place.

This is where people bought their Christmas trees. 

 Potters Cay and the Paradise island bridge!! 

It's really cool. There are little shops on the water.They sell fish.. and... they DRINK. 

 

Driving around this morning at Potter's Cay....selling fruit! 

A playground that its all broken up! Part of the things we pass every day:)

Sister Etienne fed us and this is what she presented to us. I had to try

to eat all of that! NOSA! 

I made my own dinner I was so proud of myself. Thats a haitian breakfast. But I cooked it for dinner. Yes, Haitians eat pasta and hotdogs with some spices for breakfast. 

In the Haitian Village, there is a hut that some guy lives in. Every time

 we go there he comes out and tells me and Sister Dill that he is lookin' for a wife. HA

Brother Bullard pumpin' his water!

7th Transfer: Week 3 ~ "MERRY CHRISTMAS!!"

This is mine!:)

First things first, MERRY CHRISTMAS my family!!! I cannot wait to see you all this Thursday over Skype! I will be getting on Skype around 4:00!! So be on!!!  The "giving box" that you gave me to do, I am loving doing it! I recently made Lisa and Andrew a card and gave them a Christmas CD. We will now be listening to your CD at our Christmas dinner. woohoo! I am so excited about Skype too!!! yayy!! I can't believe I actually get to see you guys, I some times forget that my family even exists! Goodness I have been gone for too long. 9 more months though! It will fly by so fast!

As for my week, it has been very tough for me. We had the other sisters come in from Turks. They were awesome. I had alot of fun with Sister Shaffer and Sister Rampersad. We got along very well. We had lots of laughs thats for sure. They wrote me really nice notes before they left:). But I think me waking up earlier than the norm, taking the 4 of them out teaching with us each and every day then taking them around Nassau on our P-day really made my body tired. My stomach and my chest were hurting me so bad to where it was waking me up in the night. I would have to get up  

Me and the Turks Sisters!
Sister Rampersad and Sister Shaffer

and make myself hot herbal tea. It was like this all week! I got so sick and tired of it that I went into the Branch President yesterday and asked for a blessing. When I received the blessing I was healed .. almost instantly. No more pain for the rest of the day yesterday. I even slept better last night. I did have a little bit of pain but it wasn't as bad as it was before.

Our Christmas Tree! and Mom's socks
that she sent us:)

As for Nassau, crime is getting a little out of hand.We hear sirens going off every day. Robbery, murders, etc. It's getting so bad

because it is almost Christmas! but no worries. We are staying safe. Some are literally placing objects in the road so people have to get out of their cars and move them. When they get out of their car people come out of nowhere, rob them and harm them. So we are no longer getting out of the vehicle. I will be putting the car in reverse so fast HAHA. I definitely have alot of memories here that is for sure.

As for my investigators!!! We have 2 progressing investigators. Eddie (the guy I was prompted to stop and talk to) and Jerome (that I was prompted to call after finding him in the area book)! They both will be baptized in January. They have been coming to church and are very excited about their baptismal 

The goats in Eddie's backyard.
I had to take a picture:)

dates! Eddie said to us at church yesterday "I will always come to this church, every Sunday!" he says it's so different than any other church. He was raised up Catholic. So he is very excited to be baptized. Every time I bring up baptism he says "Oh, of course I am working towards it!" And he does. We have to go slow with him because he speaks Creole but the Spirit has showed me how to teach Eddie. Right now we are on the Restoration. What I do is I take his notebook and I write down words and their definitions. I do this with each page in the Restoration pamphlet. These are the most important things for him to remember so he can actually gain a testimony of it on his own. As I have been doing this, he has been reading them and looking over them

Hilarious!

every day! When we came back to teach him yesterday after church, he told me all about the restoration! I looked at Sister Dill in shock! He actually acts on the commitments! and we are very excited for him to be baptized!

Jerome is awesome. He knows his Bible inside and out. He has come a long way! When he was taught before by the other sisters he was going through a really bad divorce. We have taught him every single lesson there is to teach him! He knows this church is true and has accepted to be baptized in January. He comes to church every Sunday. He does not miss. He wants to be baptized and raise his kids up in

Starfish!!! We found this on P-Day. It

was by a man who was selling Conch salad

on his boat. 

the truth. He is wonderful!! and everyone already thinks he is a member. I am very excited for Jerome!

All investigators have to come to church 5 times but I love that. It really shows if they are committed or not. That way they won't be baptized and then fall away after. It really helps them build their testimonies. I have noticed that everyone we teach is in their 30's or 40's. It's nice because they can help their families out to. We will also have more priesthood holders, which is very important here in Nassau.

So working with these 2 investigators has really showed me and Sister Dill that we are

This guy thinks he is a king:)

nothing without the Spirit. The Spirit led us to these 2 wonderful guys and they were prepared! So to see them get baptized will be a rewarding experience and I know that Heavenly Father will be so proud of them! I am so excited. Hopefully I won't be transferred out in 3 weeks. I want to stay here for at least another transfer! Anyway, that was my week! It has been tough but at the same time it has been great. Knowing that we are helping these wonderful people come unto Christ. 

Well, I learned something this morning when I was reading in 1 Nephi. 

Dre with his stickers:)

1 Nephi 4:6-7

6 And I was led by the Spirit, not knowing beforehand the things which

I should do.

7 Nevertheless I went forth, and as I came near unto the house of

Laban I beheld a man, and he had fallen to the earth before me, for he

was drunken with wine.

You're probably thinking, what about these verses? Well, the reason these verses stuck out to me was because when Nephi said he

Me trying to braid Sister Bailey's hair
at a mission meeting at the church

was led by the Spirit, not knowing where he would be going or what he would do, it showed me that he had the faith to enter into the city anyway. He knew that the Lord would provide a way for him. The Spirit works when you are going out and doing! It's one thing to sit and have the desire in your heart, but it's another thing to act on the desire that you have. Thats when the Lord really leads and guides you and they are great learning experiences. So always ACT and have trust in the Lord in all things. I love Nephi! 

There are 133 missionaries in this mission. There are more elders than sisters. We only have like 30 sister missionaries and we all know each other but that can be good I guess :)

Well, I love you and cannot wait to see you on Christmas Day at 4:00!!! woohoo!! STAY SAFE AND HEALTHY AND HAPPY!!! and MERRY CHRISTMAS!! TELL THE FAMILY I SAID I LOVE THEM ALLLLL!!! 

-Sister Judd

P.S. (the weather is getting hot again.. and its almost Christmas). This will be a Christmas that I will never forget. 

7th Transfer: Week 2 ~ Christmas Zone Conference!

Her camera broke the week of the Christmas Party. She couldn't pick her box up in time to have the new one so no Christmas party pictures :(( 

This is a shell that we have in our house.
All of the sisters who come to Nassau sign it.
Mine is in big letters of course:)

So, as you know we had Zone Conference yesterday. Which was good. I ended up picking up President Brown, the AP Elders and the Freeport Elders from the airport and drove them to the church. We got a call Sunday night saying that I had to pick them up. Sister Lewis followed right behind me in the other car so I didn't have a companion with me in the car for once woohoo! different experience. But yes, that morning was very very busy for me.

Zone Conference was fun. I just love President Brown. He is my dad out here on the mission. I can joke around with him and everything. It's just the best time! :) Talk about an amazing Mission President.

At Zone Conference President Brown talked to us about how when the General Authorities come over to visit, they tell him "I have traveled around, but I have never seen such diligent and obedient missionaries as I have in this mission" and that really touched me. Not in a prideful way, but in a way that I felt the love of the Savior at that point. He trusts us missionaries to do His work on these islands. Its hard, yes. Hard hearted people, yes. But He wants us to learn something. He wants us to have our faith strengthened in Him. As long as we strengthen our faith and trust in the Lord (trust Him like He trusts us) we can really hasten the work here. When we were in the car driving President Brown said something that I will never forget. I was talking to Elder Barber in the car, just introducing myself and he said " Yes, this is Sister Judd one of the GREAT ones and this is Elder Barber also one of the GREAT ones. It's great to see you two finally meet" HAHAHA I laughed so hard. President Brown is such a nut. In every interview that I have with him he always asks if I have a boyfriend. He is always surprised every time i say "NO, President Brown!" I swear what am I going to do with him?! I just love him. I feel the spirit every time I am around him. I always feel that way. I know the Lord is directing him. He knows the needs of every single missionary. When I was about to leave yesterday I went by and shook his hand. He just held my hand with the sweetest face!!! Like it was a father leaving his child! He just makes me feel at home. I just love him. It's been so much fun. I will never forget these experiences out here on my mission. Also in Zone Conference we were talking about having courage and faith as missionaries. Every time he poses a question guess who he looks at first to answer? ME! All of the time! I am not even exaggerating. I wish I was. But He doesn't move on until I say something back! Oh goodness. Then he said, "who in here is courageous?" and of course none of us said anything then guess who he calls? He looked straight at me and said "Come on up here my courageous Sister Judd!" I was like oh goodness. And of course he was laughing. I had to do a role play with President Brown in front of everybody. The Spirit really did lead me in that role play. When I sat down, the missionaries seriously learned something. I was stunned when they were like "wow, she was bold!" They were acting like it was an amazing show they just watched. It was so embarrassing. I am always so nervous for Zone Conference because I always have to do something! Goodness. Can I just relax for once?! I just want to sit and listen and feel comfortable. There has never been a dull moment for me since I have been out here on my mission. I have literally been taken out of my comfort zone. There were 12 missionaries there at the Zone Conference. It was small but we learned alot. Well.... I just wanted to talk about Zone Conference today because that was a major thing that happened this week. Also, I do want to Skype with you all on Christmas! Thats for sure! Woohoo!! So just make sure to have Skype on that day. I don't know what time we will be on but I will be Skyping. :) I have to see my family!

Me and Sister Bailey put up the magnets.
We had fun with that:)

Well thats about all that went on this week and yes, I did open a box from Jamaica. Everything was wrapped and it wasn't smashed. I saw all of the stickers and I about started to cry! I just miss my family, but I am having a wonderful time here on my mission. Tell Lauren that I just LOVED her stickers and her art work. They were very beautiful :) I am so grateful for all that you have done for me mom!! I had so much fun opening all the packages! ALSO when I opened up and saw the hair dryer all of the Elders went nuts! They said "Sister Judd! Let me see that!" and they passed it around goofing off with it. President Brown took a picture of Elder Wilcox holding it. It was a funny day. But thank you so much for everything and I absolutely love my new camera!! I thought the Sister Missionary stocking was adorable. OOHHHH and the Mustard color skirt and the black polka dot skirt! and the shirts!! Wooww I was sooo EXCITED for them!! Thanks so much mom!! You have awesome taste. You know me better than I thought! I had a fit over the stocking!!! I was so excited :) ALSO I have found these amazing things in Downtown Nassau that I am going to be sending home to you guys. You will now have things from Jamaica, and the Bahamas from me :D I am so excited to send them! WOOHOO! But I won't be sending them this week. Possibly next week or the week after.

Mom, I forgot to mention this to you! I was sooo excited when you sent me that box of CD's and candy. I will definitely be passing them out! You can count on that! I have people in mind who don't have much money at all and who need things like that. Thank you so much, you are so very thoughtful. It is so sad to see, but we know alot of families who won't be having a Christmas. Something that I have had my whole life. I know by giving out these things they will be so thankful :)

Also Laurens artwork that she sent a while back I didn't want to get rid of and I told Sister Dill that. She saw the one of Laurens rocks and leaves (that she glued on the paper) and Sister Dill fell in love with it! Now she has it in a sheet protector and is keeping it. My little 5 year old sister is already selling her artwork! HAHAHA :) Sister Dill loves kids!

You need to watch 17 miracles. I cried. The best movie ever I tell you what. I haven't whined anymore since watching that. Think we got it hard? Nosa, have faith.  My super planning is on Fridays. We just super plan on who we go and see the next week. Also, the Turk sisters are here. They will be with us until Thursday. I absolutely love them. Sister Barlow is not in Turks anymore. She is a STL in Mandeville and Sister Schwendimen is in Cayman now. But thats about it!

Bye bye my family! Talk to you next Monday.
Okay, THIS SISTA IS OUUUTTTTTT! :D

Love ya!
-Sis Judd

7th Transfer: Week 1 ~ Trials and Lessons Learned

My sisters! I just love them!
Sister Bailey and Sister Dill

Hey my family! I hope you all had a wonderful week and are staying healthy and safe. The weather is not getting any cooler.... which stinks. People are actually decorating the palm trees with Christmas lights lol. It's so funny.

My week was hard but the hardest of times is when we truly do see the hand of the Lord in our lives. As we humbly accept our trials we can learn what the Lord is trying to teach us. This is how we progress in this life. Trials help us to become more like our Savior so that we can once again be able to dwell with our Father in Heaven. We all definitely have lots more to learn. Even when we think we are doing all the right things, there are more things that the Lord requires of us. Just like when the rich man came to the Lord and said "I have been keeping the commandments , what more do I need to do to have eternal life?!" The Lord then told him to sell what he has and give to the poor. The rich man was sad because that (I guess) was very hard for him to do. But just like this man, even if we think we have read the scriptures 20 times and keep the commandments, the Lord still requires us to do more in order for us to keep progressing spiritually. What we think is hard is really not hard, the natural man just kicks in. If we all remembered the premortal life, we would not think of these tasks to be so hard. I always think to myself "These worldly things are just distractions keeping us from holding onto the iron rod". When our Savior was on this earth, Satan was doing his best to try to tempt him, but the Savior was not of this world he was too perfect for this world. He is our example. Just as he asked his disciples to follow Him we, too, need to keep striving to be right behind him in all things. We need to become that witness at all times in all things in all places! Just like at General Conference they said, "The Laws here on this earth can change. But God's words will NOT CHANGE." Whatever the Prophet counsels us to do here, is FROM the Lord. We always need to keep striving with an eye single to the glory of God. The Lord always looks at our actions in certain situations. He wants his saints to be great examples. We have taken upon ourselves His name.

I caught myself really counting down the hours of the days this week. I found myself becoming just physically, emotionally and spiritually DRAINED. I know that Satan is working very, very hard on me. I don't know if I have told you this before, but before my 6 month mark I would have these dreams of a random person (that I have never seen before in my life) coming up to me and saying, "Oh its okay, when you reach your 6 month mark you can go home. That is what I did." As I was getting up to my 9 month mark I had a dream about this guy coming up to me and he said "Just go home when you reach your 9 month mark." It's ridiculous! I don't think about home. I do my best to focus on the work but then I get these random dreams and it plays with my mind! Satan is horrible. It just makes me sad to think that he is just so miserable!

Me and Sister Dill with the sand
castle the Mormon tourists left us:)

I was told something about the Jamaica Kingston Mission. When they dedicated the lands for missionaries to come (I forgot who it was who did it) he said, "Wow. Satan is working very hard on these islands". Mom, it is just so true. So many churches are here. Priestcraft is so prevalant here it is ridiculous. There are even people in the Caribbean that do voodoo. I have never seen such a thing in my life. So much confusion, so sad to see. I have also learned that missionaries came to the Bahamas before they went to Jamaica. Jamaica now has 1 stake and in the Bahamas there are only 2 church buildings in all of the islands. Ours here in Nassau and the one in Freeport where the 4 Elders are. Satan is working hard here in the Caribbean.

Me and Sister Oman:)

There was an experience that me and Sister Dill had yesterday after church. We were walking and we found this guy. His name is Zach. We asked if we could come by again and have a lesson with him and he agreed and gave us a time on Sunday to come back to visit with him. When we went, he was the nicest guy. He told us that he doesn't go to church and how he left his Baptist church at 14. As we were going into the lesson he interrupted us and told us to turn to a scripture in Revelations that talked about the 144,000 having a mark on their foreheads. I then looked at Sister Dill and we both were thinking the exact same thing. I then asked Zach, "so you say that you don't go to church?" He then told us that "Well, I will tell you guys something but you probably won't come back if I tell you this." and I said "go for it Zach". He said in a high and mighty voice "I am one of them, YES I AM A JEHOVAH'S WITNESS!" It was so CREEEEEEPYYY! It was like he was keeping it a stinkin secret! I asked him

This describes me and
Sister Bailey's friendship:)

why he didn't just tell us that in the first place? I asked him if he has ever heard of our church before (already knowing the answer) and he said, "yeah of course I have!". Then he asked us questions and I even asked him questions. He didn't even bow his head or anything when we were saying a prayer because he said that "he already had his personal prayer". And when I prayed he said, "So I noticed you mentioned Heavenly Father" I said "yes" and he said "hm, thats interesting." Anyway, at the end of this "lesson" I tried to hand him a restoration pamphlet and it was like he was disgusted by

So fun!

it. He didn't even grab it from my hands! So I put it on the table and he gave me one of his pamphlets. So anyway, to make the story short I asked him when we can come by and see him again and he said Saturday at 2:30. So we will be sure to meet him on Saturday. He is a really nice guy. As a Jehovah's Witness, he also goes door to door. He even likened me and Sister Dill to Saul! How Saul was a wicked person because he was so diligent in doing bad and then he went on the Road to Damascus and the Lord appeared to him and he changed. When he told us that I got

heated. But don't worry my appearance didn't show it I just sat there patiently. Usually in lessons I am guided by the Spirit in knowing

My coffin!

what to say, but with Zach, I just felt as if me and Sister Dill were not supposed to say anything. We were to let him tell us these scriptures and other things, and we needed to sit there patiently until he was done. When he was done we then gave him a pamphlet. It was a pretty amazing experience in helping me more recognize the Spirit. So even though he was "in a nice way" trying to bash with us, we just didn't entertain it and sat there patiently. It will be sad in the Millennium when he comes to know that this gospel is true. So many will be looking towards the saints to help them. But we will still be working with Zach. With God all things are possible. After we pray about him this week and see him on Saturday we will know what to do.

Sister Dill and I get along so well. Sister Bailey will forever be my best friend, I tell you what. I consider her my sister. She always tells me that I am a white version of her. It's true. She cracks me up. I have to go back to

Sister Bailey will forever be
 my best friend:)

Jamaica to visit her. I tell her that I am going to go into her town and ask the people where my sister lives and when they ask me who my sister is I will tell them "Suzanne" and they are going to tell me where she is! and Sister Bailey was like "Nosa!, They gonna look at you and be like No mon. You are not her sister." HAHA! Poor Sister Judd, just because I am white!! ROFL! But seriously though, the towns are so small and noone drives. They all walk. So if you go into a town and ask where a person lives they can tell you. Sister Bailey has a WONDERFUL new companion!! Her name is Sister Lewis and she is the sweetest sister!! She is from Southern Utah, a small town called ENOCH. I laugh every time I hear that. SHE IS THE SWEETEST THING! I just love her!

Also, we are going to the caves again today and going to Paradise Island to show Sister Lewis around. I am going to be sooooo sad to leave the Bahamas and to not be around

these sisters anymore. But I'm not going to think about that right now:)

Our view of the beach on
Paradise Island

Well my time is about up and the sisters will be coming in to kick us off the computers soon, so I just want to say I LOVE YOU MY FAMILY!!! BE SAFEEE! LOVE YOU!! MEEEERRRRY CHRISTMASS TO YOU TOO MY MOTHERRR!! I LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH!! STAY SAFE AND BE HAPPPPYYY MY FAMILY!! :) LOVE YOU!!

-SISTER JUDD

My sisters!

We found a bottle! 

We thought it would have a note in it, but it was a beer bottle. Sister Oman was going to put a temple pass along card in there and throw it back out to the ocean. I reassured her that, that wouldn't be a good idea to put a temple pass along card in a beer bottle. HAHA!
