Dear Sister Megan Ryleigh Barrow,

You are hereby called to serve as a missionary of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. You are assigned to labor in the Ohio Cincinnati Mission, Ohio Columbus Mission, or Pennsylvania Pittsburgh Mission.....

Wait What!

Crazy news we got this week that the Ohio Cleveland Mission is being dissolved as of July 1st, 2018. It is sad news because this is the BEST mission! I have loved serving here and I know that I will continue to love it here. However, I also know that no matter what mission I get to end my mission will be the best and that it doesn't change what we are teaching or change the good time I am having. No matter where I go this gospel is still the same and God is hastening His work! The church is true and the book is blue! 

Well, after that crazyness lets tell some funny stories! Bc that is the best part of the email. This week has been full of some good ones from this JW (Jehovah’s Witness) telling us she knows, people hitting on us, to a man with no leg that yelled at us to come in to his house, and floating trash. Sadly, I don't have time to tell you all of them. I had to go beat some Elders in basketball. Let's start with the JW. One day Sister Wadley and I were out tracting or something doing missionary things. Well, because I drink a ton of water so, I can make Sister Brown proud I had to pee! We decide just to go to a Mcd's nearby. Sadly though there was only one stall open so, Sister Wadley swooped in took it. I was sitting there waiting when in JW comes in. She had a little pin that said JW.org. I just start talking to her just about random stuff. Then she sees my badge and said, "You know Jesus?" I said, "Yep He is a cool dude." Well, we just start talking about Jesus which is always great. Sister Wadley comes out so, I go in and they start talking and I go pee. At one point this lady starts talking about the morality of the world then she said," I am 43 years old and never married and I proud to say that I am virgin." Mind you I am still in the stall. She then says, " I can tell you guys are too. I can tell." hahahahaha. I was trying my hardest not to bust a rib. I get out wash my hands and we start to leave then she said it again. "I can tell" hahahaha. What a good time. One last story! We were leaving an appointment we had with our investigator, Shawnee. There was this one guy just hanging out of his door so, I just waved at him and said hi. He asked us if we were Christian. I said yes we are and that we are the missionaries in the area. He said he are you good Christian women and I was like we just talk about Christ with people. Then his twin came out and he started talking with him too. We had to go but, as we were leaving he told us to stay beautiful. hahahaha. Youngstown man what a party!!!  

I am sorry this email is so short and that my pics are few but, life is good and being a missionary is great! 

Have a great week! 

Love all ya!

Sister Barrow
