Gretchen was transferred last week from Victoria to Penticton! The Picture above shows how grueling tracting was for her on Vancouver Island for nearly six months!
Penticton is a town of about 50,000 people in the Okanogan Valley situated 260 miles East of Vancouver. The area is known as the "breadbasket" of British Columbia. We are told there are numerous wine-tasting events in the Okanogan Valley during the month of October but it is not anticipated Gretchen and her new companion will be engaging in many of those activities, though Gretchen reminded us there are a lot of stories in the Bible about vineyards!
Here are some pictures of Gretchen before she left scenic Vancouver Islands. A potential title for each is as follows: 1) Finding Margaret Thatcher; 2) Supermissionary; 3) Missionaries on the Beach; 4) A Bunch of Missionaries on the Beach; and 5) Testing a New Missionary Vehicle

Hey there!
I’m Shop Girl from I Heart My Shoes— I’m an LDS writer / teacher in Ontario, and, like you, I’ve been a member of the 20 Something Bloggers network for some time but I thought that having a separate one for LDS bloggers all over the world would be a fabulous way to connect with one another, and find some new blogs to read!
It’s brand spankin’ new and I’d love it if you joined! Come on over and check it out.

Hey, Gretchen! I met your brother today. He's in one of my classes.
Keep on keeping on. You're my hero, mission-girl!
