Dagupan Zone

I got an email with photos from Sister Smith's sweet "mission mom" with a little more info...yay! Oh, also, she let us know that family and friends are not to "chat" back and forth through email with Aubrey. She can send one email each week to her family.

A note from me (Mindy): If you are friend or family writing to Sister Smith, sending a letter through pouch or snail mail would be better than email, since she has such a limited time to read emails, and cannot email you back anyway. If you need information on how to send her a letter, let me know! And PLEASE DO send her letters! Having letters in her hands that she can read and re-read will be very helpful and comforting to her. :)

From Sister Monahan:

Sister Smith's area is Dagupan City, Dagupan Zone. Dagupan is a fairly large city and they are known for their fishing, especially the bangus fish. Dagupan has a yearly Bangus Festival that turns into quite a celebration. Dagupan has a stake with 6 wards and she is in Dagupan 5.
