As I was thinking of Meghan this weekend, I was reminded of an excerpt from a blog Alicia found and sent me. I am so grateful for Meghan and her love of the Lord. She has grown so much since she left high school and continues to grow into an amazing daughter of God.

"My companion's name is Sister Paynter and she is wonderful! I joke that they put us together because our names are similar. She is really sweet and has a very strong testimony and an incredible desire to serve a mission. As we ate dinner we discovered that we have a lot in common. We are both 'older' for sister missionaries and have studied elementary education in college. She also never really thought about serving a mission but felt impressed that it was what Heavenly Father wanted her to do. Her obedience and dedication are inspiring to me and I am so grateful to be able to be her companion, even for just 12 days. "
