Happy Easter! - April 10 2023

 Happy Easter Everyone!

                                                                       Roses for Easter!

TUESDAY:

So we came to one of our returning members homes where we've been teaching her granddaughter. But that day her granddaughter was unavailable but we didn't know till we came. So she was like Addison is gone but you could share a quick message with me! So we said okay and we were there about 30 minutes just listening to her talk. But it was good.
We also had a great lesson with our friend Lisa! Which was amazing! 

WEDNESDAY:
Well we had an awesome conversation with this lady named Stephanie covering a lot of different topics but we were able to give her a Book of Mormon! Though the day was sunny and she had a white porch so both of us were half blinded during most of the conversation.

We also had miracle night where companionships over the whole mission get to share miracles they've seen which is always so much fun!

THURSDAY:
We went on exchanges and I went with Sister Balch. (And I just realized I forgot pictures, sorry!)
But it was a lot of fun! We did service! And some finding, I kept on getting us on streets I had knocked before so lots of driving!😅 
And we had another good lesson for our friend Lisa! And we gave someone else a Book of Mormon!

FRIDAY:
Well we knocked on the house of a pastor. Which was interesting. He was very nice just talked about how The Book of Mormon having one draft wouldn't make sense and how we don't need more scripture..... so it was interesting, but we ended up giving him a Book of Mormon. We also tried to hunt down someone our president had found but we are not sure his address exists? Or he lives in the one that might be his?

And then for Easter our friend Dawn gave us roses which was so sweet of her!

SATURDAY:
My companion practiced for Easter Sunday! We met someone named Joe who totally seemed to understand truth was lost and that more was needed and we were standing there listening to him... like "hello!" haha.  But he definitely did not understand Joseph Smith and didn't let us totally explain and then randomly asked why we didn't drink coffee. So it was a very interesting all over the place contact.  

We got to teach Addison! She was very sweet! A bit shy but she was awesome!

SUNDAY:
Easter was awesome! We had a good meeting! We had a couple friends come and many members brought friends! Which was amazing! We had some good member visits and dinner from one our members! And made some plans for members to share the gospel! And we had a good chat with one of our neighbors! Otherwise it was pretty quiet! 

Love you all! I know The Lord is in every detail of our lives and will truly help us! Thank you for all of your support! 

Love,
Sister Paige Martin

May 23, 2022 - Rain in a Second

  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...
