Last Weeks Email

I wrote this email last week and totally forgot to send it... my bad! Enjoy this extra email:)


This week felt so long and yet I feel like I just wrote a mass email yesterday. 


Not much has happened. Still trying to figure out serving on campus. Hey are making all of our female dorms into FSY housing so we don't have any girls in our wards right now. Makes it hard to do areawork but we are figuring it out.


We got to give a tour of the Visitors Center to a friend I was teaching in my last area. She is on date for next month and I am so excited for her:)


Zone conference was this week. We talked all about the 2nd edition of PMG and how we can be successful missionaries. 


This week I was listening to a talk by President Henry B. Eyring called "The Power of Teaching Doctrine" in his talk he says "Simply hearing the words of doctrine can plant the seed of faith in the heart. And even a tiny seed of faith in Jesus Christ invites the Spirit." Something that I have come to learn from my mission is that planting seeds of faith in people is SOO IMPORTANT! That is why we as members have been invited to Love, Share, and Invite. We may not always see the outcome of our efforts of sharing the gospel but God has a plan for everyone and it is all in his timing.


That is basically all that happened this week. Sorry it's such a boring email.

First Week Of The Last Transfer

This is the first week of my last transfer. I can't believe it! Where did the time go? Sister Drury and I are staying together as Visitors Center Trainers and I could not be more excited. It's going to be a great last 6 weeks. Highs/Lows of the week: ☆We had our first lesson with Kennedy this week and it went so so well. She is such a faithful person. Her boyfriend, who is a member, was telling us that she is always encouraging him to go to church. Kennedy was so cute and took notes throughout the whole lesson so she wouldn't forget anything ☆There was THE BIGGEST SPIDER I have ever seen at the Visitors Center. I am sure it could have eaten me if it was hungry enough. One of the senior Elders was so brave and killed it for us. He is a true life saver ☆We got a shipment in of the Book of Mormon in Navajo. 1st edition! I remember when I was about 9 months into my mission talking to a man who was helping them translate it while he was serving his mission. At that point they we...

Yummiest Taco Soup Ever!

Image
Highs/Lows from the week: ☆I had interviews with President Bassett yesterday and it was great ☆we saw a spider tie up a fly then kill it. Kinda cool but it was inside our house so then we vacuumed them both up. RIP the fly ☆lots of exchanges ☆One of our members girlfriend wants to take the lessons so we are excited to start teaching her ☆everytime we cook we get a million flies in our house. I think there might be a hole in the window screen. ☆we gave a tour to a lady named Elizabeth at the visitors center and at the end of the tour she says "so is there a place I can go to learn more?" Why yes Elizabeth, there is a place you can go to learn more.:) She wasn't interested in staying in contact with us but we gave her a copy of the Book of Mormon and showed her the church's website. She was so interested in learning more! ☆my cousins had me and my companion over for dinner and they made the YUMMIEST taco soup. On Facebook I have been posting a series about different Chr...
