Week 46

Transfersss!!! My new companion is Sister Booth, and let me tell ya... This transfer is going to be 🔥FIRE🥳. STL stuff is a little interesting, but I like it so far! Our meeting went till 11:45 the other night, so I'm gonna be so tired this transfer😂 but the blessings are worth it!! Sister Booth is so smart and experienced, I am excited to learn from her. She also has the best sense of humor which makes the work so much more fun. President Graham spoiled me by letting her be my companion.
My last few days of the transfer (monday-wednesday) were a little odd and were definitely not the greatest. The vibes were off and I didn't have the spirit with me, so that was hard. But now things are GREAT and I am already seeing miracles 5 days into the new transfer! 
Oh and at transfers, I got to see Elder Williams again😁😁 I love that man with everything in me. I'll attach some selfies:)
I'm officially not in the same district as sister garbett for the first time since my 3rd transfer🥺😥I'm gonna miss her so much, and even tho I'll still get to see her every once in a while at big meetings (cuz we are both STLs) it won't be the same... I love her so muchhhh. 
Wilow got baptized on Sunday!!!! It was such a sweet baptism and everything went very smoothly which was nice! Wilow is amazing and seeing her get baptized was so special because I know how much this desicion will bless the rest of her entire life. She is so sweet and I feel so blessed to have been a part of her journey.
ALSO, Sierra (a member) called us on Saturday morning at 6:30 am and told us to go outside... Turns out she spent 3 hours at 1am sticky-noting our car😂😂 it was freezing outside and my hands were frozen taking them all off, but it was worth the laugh 😂 Sierra is crazy lol
This time of year is really interesting work-wise because it gets dark so early, so we can't really be out and about. So we are trying to fill the time with things that will be fruitful and productive. We are trying to read the book of Mormon with our friends over the phone since that is quick and good to do in the late evenings. I've been rediscovering the power that is in the book of mormon and the power that we directly recieve when we read it every single day. By reading it everyday we are literally letting god bestow added power to our lives. Why wouldn't we want that? So don't be bashful, let God bless you: read the book of Mormon single everyday. That's my 2 cents:) 
Love y'all!! ✌️

Week 73

Wow this was a fast week... It's getting real yall. It was a really good week tho! Zone Conference! My very last zone conference😢 I gave my departing testimony and it was weird to be on that side of it because my whole mission I've been watching other missionaries give their departing testimonies and now all of a sudden it was me! But it was a really spiritual experience and I loved it. The rest of this week was super duper good! Lots of small miracles that lifted my spirits. We are finding quite a few new people to teach and I'm actually really excited about them! There was this one guy we talked to on his porch in passing, and we invited him to church, but then the phone number he gave us didn't work. BUT he showed up to church 6 days later!! I gave a talk in sacrament and after the meeting he asked if he could have a book of mormon 😱 his name is James and he is so cool!! We also prayed really hard on Friday that we could plant a lot of seeds...

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...
