Caprice called us from the MTC the day after she was dropped off because it was her PDAY.  I loved being able to talk to her that soon.  She told me that MTC was such a spiritual place and everyone there is so cheesy and nice.  She showed me her dorm room where there were only 4 sisters in a room instead of the usual 6 (covid restrictions).  She was so happy to meet all the missionaries in her district in person finally!  She said they all got along so well.  They got to go to the Provo temple and do an endowment session.  She even saw her 2nd cousin Chelsea Whitney there!

 Caprice's mission farewell was held on Feb. 13, 2022 at our church building.  So many friends and family came to her farewell and to our house after for Cafe Rio salads and dessert.  Caprice practiced her talk all week and presented it with confidence and calmness.  She shared some special stories about why she was inspired to serve a mission.  We had such a big turnout after at our house that we almost ran out of food.  Some old friends from Riverton came, new friends from South Weber, her friends from college and OATC and high school, and most of all our family members.   We felt so much love it and it really was such a special occasion.   Grandma Sue even made some beautiful flower arrangements with yellow and white flowers to represent the colors in the Indiana state flag.

We talked to Caprice while we were on our teip in Austin,TX. She and her two companioms had a weird run-in with some priest ministers that were bashing the sisters' beliefs. The priests were purposely being argumentative which Caprice was irritated and disappointed by. But they also had success wirh a cute older man that treats them kindly and loves the B of M so much, he hugs and kisses it. Caprice is learning that although many are not open to hear the gospel , she is planting a seed in their hearts. Here are some pics from a conference they just had.
