Friends and Family,
Nothing happened this week...
sincerely
Sister Dixon
But actually nothing really happened
The only thing I can think of is that I got my flight plans this week!
I will be leaving on Monday the 25th and we have a redeye straight to Amsterdam so I am pretty excited about that, layovers are the worst.
I was pretty excited to hear about Steven's mission call! what a fun place to go. Sister De Souza in my district is from Canada and she was also very excited about his call. She is so cute, she says eh and everything.
I am so glad that it sounds like Katie's bone marrow transplant is working. God is really answering our prayers.
I am performing again today for the senior missionary welcome devotional, I will be singing Consider the Lilies... so I guess that is interesting. 
I'm not sure if I will be writing next week... It all depends on how hard it is to pack again.... so it may take a while. I will however be able to call home at the airport, so mom be ready anywhere from about 1 to 4:30!
I love you all! I may or may not write next week!
Loves

Dear Family,
This week was normal, up until Sunday. As you've probably all heard,
there were earthquakes in Japan, Mexico, and Ecuador. I didn't feel
anything, but a member explained to me that by some kind of
scientific...event thing, that the movement of the tectonic plates
made it rain extremely hard all morning on Sunday morning.
When we got to the church, everything was flooded! Again! We spent
about an hour cleaning everything up, but the worst part was that out
of the 130-or-so people that come to church every week, only 43 showed
up that day...
...ouch...
I'm sure next week will turn out better (that is, if I'm here next
week. Transfers are today and it's very likely that I'm leaving
Nauta). The best things happen right when something big is around the
corner.
For example, from about four different people, we've recieved the same
referral. This name just popped out of nowhere in a place where about
0 active members live. They say that he really wants to talk to us and
that he really wants to come to church. We've swooped by there a
couple of times, but we haven't been able to find him (but we've found
his wife, who also says he's anxious to meet with us). I'm kind of
excited to meet this guy.
Congratulations, Steven, on your mission call to Canada! That's pretty
awesome to hear! I'm giddying with excitement for you, dude! You're
going to have to proselyte every day with a suit, di? ("Di" is the
Peruvian equivalent for the Canadian "eh". I've got the habit of
saying it. :P) Way to go, man!
Love,
Adam
P.S. I'm glad that letter got to you alright, Mom!
