 Hi Family and Friends, TUESDAY: Here's where Walmart comes in! We had decided to do something called Walmart Finding, where we go into a Walmart parking lot and talk and serve people while trying to spread the gospel. WE are some of those Walmart People!  It was interesting we had a lot of good conversations and met a inactive member! WEDNESDAY: We had planned a lesson with one of our friends and then invited a member. That evening we were planning on inviting our friend Jake to church. So we had a great visit and it was going really well and then our member invited Jake to church! It was awesome! And Jake wants to come which is even better! Also we were able to join YW and it was a lot of fun. The leaders and some other girls brought random ingredients and somehow we made (probably I did not see the end result) 4 things, peach cobbler, cookies, breaded cheese and cake. Sadly I only have a picture of the breaded cheese but it was a lot of fun. THURSDAY: We had Zone Conference...

Hello Family and Friends, It's been a great week.  I don't have a lot of time today.  I love my companion Sister Merrill.  We love any prayers you can send our way. Here's a quick recap. TUESDAY: At the end of night we were almost done so we decide to call through some last few phone numbers and we called this guy named Adrian. And he was interested! We were able to schedule to another time to call him! WEDNESDAY: We were up in this area called Avon and we had like 30 minutes to visit two people. We jump out of the car to go to this members house and we run into this man who walking along and we walk with this man and he was interested, his name is Damon! We explained the Book of Mormon and God and set up a return appointment! Then we walked back to our car and met this guy named Ian who also seems interested and we were able to set up another time to call as well! THURSDAY: We were able to have this great lesson with one of our members where we explained The story of The...

  Hello everyone! I hope y'all are doing so good!  Here we are with Kara TUESDAY: So we head over to a friend's lesson and normally there are 3 people there Brian, Katie, Doug plus a three year old. Well this lesson we had no 3 year old and two other adults from the neighborhood joined the lesson instead. And we were able to set up another lesson with one of them as well so that was awesome FRIDAY: We did a good amount of of finding and we also had some amazing lessons with members!  SATURDAY: Miracle time! There was a festival inn a town near Geneseo so being the missionaries we were, we decided to go! And on the way down to the festival there were some people moving trees into a truck so we offered to help and once we finished went on our merry way (important side note, the guys name was James and we helped him and his girlfriend. He had another friend, Ben in the trees whom we had not met at this point). We continued on to the festival and met some great people, even h...

 Hello everyone! My new companion Sister Merrill! TUESDAY:  We had a great lesson with one of our members! We also were able to meet a lot of people while we walked along the street. WEDNESDAY:  We were able to meet with Kara and her friend Rebekah and do a church tour! Kara said she wants to come to church and would try her best to get work off! It was amazing! We had Transfers.  I'm staying in Geneseo, and I got a new companion Sister Merrill! She is so sweet! THURSDAY:  We were able to have dinner with the cutest lady, her name is Annette. We were able to teach her most of the restoration and she was so excited! She had been taught before buy you could just see her connecting the dots between the Book of Mormon and Bible and how Joseph Smith brought the church back, it was the coolest thing to see! And apparently she has family who has questions as well! She said that she would be willing to work towards baptism!  Sadly she is moving to a different town ...

 Hello! MONDAY: So each week we have a lesson with this cute member family. And this week we got all set up for a lesson and one of their friends knocked on the door and asked if they could play. And the members invited him to the lesson! We were able to have a great lesson with the members and their friend it was awesome! WEDNESDAY: We met the cutest girl named Kara today. She is so sweet and so excited to come closer to Christ! She also brought her friend with her. We were able to have a great lesson and give Kara a Book of Mormon. We were knocking this one road and we had passed this house but it kept nagging at me. So eventually we went back and we were able to explain part of the restoration and give him a Book if Mormon! It was such a testament to me of how God is in the details and how the spirit will direct us if we are listening! THURSDAY: We were able to have a great lesson with someone! Sadly they are in another missionaries area so we had to refer him, but hopefully he ...
