 Hello everyone!


                                                            Exchanges are always so fun!

TUESDAY:
Well we had some good friend lessons! And one of our members invited multiple friends to church! And we had an awesome lesson with Lisa on resurrection and judgement, though we didn't quite get to the kingdoms of glory!😅 but she loved it!

We also had one of our returning members attend institute! 

WEDNESDAY:
Was a lot of fun! Our youth activity was Dodgeball! We also met a lady who one of the first things she said was you can't be Gods, and we were like ???😕 And she believed we worshiped Joseph Smith.... it was a very funny conversation. Helped me know this gospel is really true! 

And we also met this really nice guy who listened for a moment! He needed to go though.

FRIDAY:
We did exchanges! Which was so fun! We met a lady who prayed for us to find the truth🙄 (Hopefully that's the eye rolling emoji!) And we did lots of finding. We went up to this house and they had a Dog, who was very cute and nice! But he got very excited about strangers so he started jumping on us! So we knock this door and my exchange companion then jumped out of his fence because she didn't love dogs (he had an electric collar) but I stayed and knocked again, and when he started play biting I decided it was probably time to go left a card and we skedaddled! 

We also left a pamphlet with someone and he said we could come back! 

SATURDAY:
We went to a relief society activity! And we explained General Conference to one of our friends, Cynthia, and she said she would watch! We also talked with some of our other friends Victor and Diana! And they has a sweet question about praying for them so we did! But the phone call got dropped partway through so they were very appreciative of the prayer though all they heard was the end. 

SUNDAY:
Well church was amazing! We had one of our youth bring her friend as well who said she was now coming every week and joined choir after church! We had choir after church, my comp and I loved being in choir again! We also meet some of our members in the church. And I now might be doing a musical number with my companion on Easter, one of our members  Sister Johns was going to accompany and then offered me the option, so yeah but also ahhhh! We also had some good member lessons!

Thanks for your prayers. Love to you all

Love,

  TUESDAY: We had Zone Conference day #1. Elder Johnson of the seventy came which was cool.  There are also three Martin's in our mission, none related to each other. I also had exchanges. WEDNESDAY : Our catch up day. We had a lot of lessons! THURSDAY : Day #3 of zone conference. Another exchange. Within the exchange I got to do my first service on the mission  and I started a phone call in Spanish. Which was cool. FRIDAY : We had lessons and some finding. SATURDAY: It was soo hot. We got up to like 89sh. I was walking up a set of stairs and a huge bee stopped right in front  of my forehead before I stepped forward.   luckily I saw and stopped but I almost got stung by a bee.  We also has a storm Saturday evening., and the rain came on so fast it was bizarre.  I'm still trying to decide how I like the weather here, but I guess spring is unpredictable everywhere. SUNDAY: We went to church. We had lots of lessons and visited a older member in our w...

Baptism and everything! - June 5, 2023

Hello beautiful people,                                                        Sister Prall and I found some beautiful Daisies. MONDAY: We had an awesome lesson with one of our friends Chris! We talked about Jesus Christ and why he had to come!  And we called random people at the church which was a bit strange but good! TUESDAY: So we had a slightly distracted lesson with our new friend Bryan. (Not the recent convert) we tried talking about prophets which went well but he kept on going on tangents about false prophets and some other tangents. And pulling him back to the fact that there is a true prophet today was fun. But we think we got the point across! But we had an awesome lesson about The Prophet and The Priesthood with our recent convert Bryan which was amazing!  We talked with someone I was talking to on Fac...

Problems are Like a Washing Machine - August 7, 2023

Hello, Wonderful Week!  Hope it was for you too! TUESDAY: Well Tuesday we had a lot of lessons planned, then they all fell through so instead we did a lot of finding. We stopped by this one house and they were just letting their dogs out so we got to pet two of their dogs who were very nice! One of them stayed a boy further back and made us a bit nervous but the owner was there so it was fine! We ended up having a good conversation with her though she wasn't interested. WEDNESDAY: We met with Sister Wilkinson! And when we went we thought it would just be Sister Wilkinson, then Autumn joined us and we just read to them from The Book of Mormon together! It was awesome! And Autumn was involved and commenting which she hasn't been the past few times we've gone!  We then showed up for youth night but it ended being somewhere else so we talked to the adults instead which was good! We also had a lesson with Jodi which was good! And we talked to someone named William who I had talk...
