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 41

Hello everyone! another week down! Here are some cool things that happened this week: We went to go visit a lady named Kylene and she was really confused who we were, but after a while, it all of a sudden clicked and she just lit up saying how excited she was to come to church again! Apparently her grandma who passed away like 20 years ago was a member of the church and she used to go with her all the time! So everyone please pray for Kylene that she can feel welcomed and have a desire to learn and be baptized. She was so awesome and she has so much potential! So THANK YOU to all y'all who prayed for finding miracles, cuz it is working!!!  On Saturday we went to a fall festival in soddy daisy and there was this really nice guy working at a booth who bought us a funnel cake! He was so cool! Walking around all the markets and booths/tents, we got a lot of weird looks and we even had one guy call us nuns 😂 I said "almost, haha, we are missionaries!" That was my 3rd time be...

Week 64

Well sister Oldroyd is shipped off to Chattanooga 😥 BUT I love my new companion, sister Chan! I'm glad I get to serve with her and we are having so much fun! This week it was really a struggle to get return appointments with the people we are teaching and holy moly, it is a never ending battle and it makes me want to lose my mind sometimes. I love these people so so much, but I get really tired if spending time trying to chase them down to have a lesson😂I just want to consistently teach someone, BUT it's not about what I want, it's about how God wants to use me as his hands. And I guess right now he is needing me to do a LOT of seed planting. After a long week of seed planting, I am eager to pick fruit, but unfortunately it takes a lot of time. The beginning of the week consisted of going around and saying goodbye to people since sister Oldroyd is leaving. So we took a lot of pics with members and friends. I'm glad I'm not the one leaving because I am getting kind...

Week 34

Transfers!!!!! 🥳🥳🥳 My new companion is Sister Kirkman and SHE. IS. AWESOME.🔥 This is her 2nd transfer, so I am 2nd half training her, but shes literally got everything down💪 I am in Hixson Tennessee near Chattanooga which is fun. We've have a random heat wave blow through and that has not been fun. I'm so ready to break out the sweaters! Also, our apartment has a roach problem... I opened up a drawer to get a spoon and a roach scurried into the depths of the drawer... I didn't try and find it. But besides that, this apartment is pretty nice!  Our district is pretty big too which will make Pdays really fun. There are 5 companionships in our district.  There are some amazing people here too. I really want to see a baptism while I'm here and I think there are lots of prepared people, we just need to be guides to them. So prayers for that would be very helpful! Here was a cool thought from this week: We were talking to the wife of a Baptist preacher and we were talking...
