New York

Our week was great :) Sister Kunz and I are enjoying our time together and loving the people we're teaching! We had 2nd transfer training for Sister Kunz with the Zone Leaders! That was fun :) I also found out that I'm related to one of the elders in our ward! His name is Elder Speakman! We were looking at our genealogy charts and found out that we're 4th cousins! Cray cray right? ;)

So here's a funny story... heh heh. It's kind of personal, but still funny! The members have been feeding us a TON of pasta and cheese.... so can you guess what's been happening? Yeah, we've been feeling a little... backed up... if you know what I mean :) So I decided to take laxatives for the first time in my life hahaha. It was an interesting experience, but it worked well hahaha.... That might be too much info, but I thought it was funny :) Not much else has been happening! Just working hard and enjoying my time with the people here!

I guess everyone needs to eventually stop sending my mail to the PO Box 149 address! Start sending them to this address please:

Karli Hansen
1012 Prestwick Circle
Farmington, Ut 84025

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!! :) It's been such an amazing year and a half! I can't even begin to describe all that I've learned and experienced. I'm going to the Sacred Grove tomorrow and the Palmyra temple :) I know that this gospel is true and I love going to the temple. I know missionary work is so powerful and it's what we're commanded to do. I'm excited to do member missionary work and help other missionaries in the future!

I bore my testimony on Sunday about moments that bring us closer through the veil (examples: when a baby is born, temple marriages, etc). There are certain moments in life when heaven is so close and the veil is thin. My mission has brought me closer to heaven. It has helped me see a little bit clearer through the veil. The good times, the hard times,... everything! I absolutely love the people I've met and am blessed to now have them in my life :)

I'm grateful that New York is pretty close, so that I can visit and see these amazing people every so often! I'm grateful for the other missionaries I've met and all the people who have written and supported me as I've been here :)

I know this gospel is true, Christ lives :) and WE can live again just like Him! I love this work and know it's true! Everyone please stay safe and be happy.... okay?! Love you all :)


Eternally in the Lord's service, Sister Karli Hansen <3
