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 40

Not a lot happened this week, but it was supposed to be transfers, except for that I'm staying!! Side note, Sister Garbett's new companion (named sister Phillips) is SO awesome!! We actually have a lot in common and we have mutual friends from BYU and high school! Our little sisters are also so similar which is crazy, we both pulled up a picture and their outfits were almost the same hahaha.  But anyways, here are some cool things that I learned this week: --> Always always always follow promptings (if it's a good prompting, cuz if it's good, it's from God). Promptings are gateways for God to work miracles in our lives, but we have to act first. I'm still working on that, but I've seen it give me so much more confidence in the work I'm doing cuz I know that I'm not doing it alone:) --> Make friends and don't be afraid to share the gospel. When friendship comes first, sharing the gospel is a lot easier. That's one downfall with missionar...

Week 66

Hello everyone!! Happy late Easter! I hope everyone had an amazing Sunday, cuz I sure did!! Holidays on the mission are a little hard (for me at least), but this one was actually pretty good! The church service was amazing and it was PACKED. I felt like I was back in a Utah ward because there were so many people! Here are some reasons it was a great easter: Some friends we are teaching came to church! Donna who is a somewhat lonely older lady came and wore one of sister chan's dresses and she cried during the service and even sang one of the songs, which was huge. Donna is going through a lot right now, but I think she felt a moment of peace when she was at church.  Afterwards we went to the Gildays (a member that I'm close with ) to have lunch and a little scripture study. Isabel was there and that was fun hehe her and I are crazy. I don't know if I've "introduced" Isabel, but she is 19 and was just baptized in January. She moved here and almost i...

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 ...
