Week 24

Not gonna lie, this week was a long one😪 not for any specific reason, the time just didn't want to pass by quick. This also sounds backwards, but I want to be worked so hard that I pass out every night, cuz right now I feel like I'm floating day by day, and I want to feel like I'm climbing day by day. I'd rather lose a hard competetive tennis match than win an easy one. So I'm trying to spice up this area, but so far the spice isn't cookin🫤 But we did have many small miracles that happened! We found quite a few new people to teach, and Michael came to church again on Sunday!!! We are going to invite him to be baptized when we visit with this week, so prayers would be much appreciated for Michael and his readiness for baptism😁. 
I also had to deadlift a 250lb man off the ground cuz he fell and we were the only ones there to help. 
Side note: this humidity is NO JOKE... we wake up in the mornings and the back doors look like shower doors. I'll attach a picture lol. It's dreadful. I've never sweat so much in my life, I feel like those middle school teenage boys in PE, it's terrible. The hot humid air literally takes away my breath when I step outside. So basically I am counting down the days till fall!
There is so much potential in this area, and I can see it with everyone that I talk to. I can tell that the shell is about to crack, and the work that needs to be done will multiply by a ton. I am so excited for when that is gonna happen, and I hope it happens soon!

Week 74

Alrighty, here I am again. This was MIRACLE filled week. It had its ups and downs, but I'm going to focus on the ups! So first of all, the big miracle is James!!! This has got to be the most prepared person I have ever met on my entire mission! Not an exaggeration! I can't remember exactly what I've said about him in the past, so here's a little summary. We were walking around a neighborhood last Sunday after church and we decided to knock his door. He was really nice, so we came back on Tuesday to do a Bible study. Then we lost contact with him for the rest of the week. BUT he showed up to church on Sunday!!! We were so shocked!! Then he came to church AGAIN and he had read all the way up to Jacob, and he knew everything about the saints leaving to Utah, their history, everything about Joseph Smith and Emma Smith, and a bunch of other random facts! He said he knew Joseph Smith was called of God and he never wanted to stop coming to our church because he said it feels ...

WEEK 6: Crossville, TN

 This week flew by, which I guess is a good thing! To jump right into things, we are teaching quite a few people right now, and I can see 3 of them being baptized by the end of this transfer. I've been praying so hard about it, because I have developed such a strong love for them individually and I want them to progress and be baptized soooo badly. It's funny cuz you don't realize how much you love and cherish the gospel until you start teaching it to someone who doesn't know it. I really hope to see a baptism before the transfer ends because I care about these people so much.  Sister Jones and I have been working hard and we have found so many new people to teach! I've definitely changed a lot in a few weeks cuz I get genuinely excited to knock on someone's door, and I stand there hoping that they answer. I won't lie, the first week, I would feel a flood of relief if someone didn't answer their door😅 so I've come a long way!  I also love visiting p...

Week 28

This week was a wild one! We had transfers, 2 baptisms on sunday, and we went to a non denominational rock band church.  My new companion is Sister Goodman and she is AWESOME!! She has taught me what it really means to work hard!💪 I am thriving with her and I hope we get more than one transfer together!! Two cute kids named Madelyn and Landon were baptized on Sunday! They have been being taught for a while now and it was such a cute baptism!  We did a church song with one of our friends named mary, and so we got to go to her non-denominational church service! It was very different! I've never experienced anything quite like it, but it's cool to now understand what other people are talking about when they talk about their rock band churches 🥳 let's just say I had a headache for a few hours afterwards haha. Other than that, this week was a busy one full of teaching and planning! We are making a lot of progress with SMS and running the social media pages. It's a lot of w...
