Temple Tuesday November 13, 2017

Hey Friends!!

This week was so fun!! We had the amazing opportunity to go to the St.Louis temple this week! I loved it so much! I am so grateful we were able to go because we don't have on in our mission, but blessed with the best mission president :)

We also had a fun time with our zone this week and did interviews with our mission president and his wife. They are such great people with lots of advice for us missionaries, I love it!

Something amazing that happened this week was we had exchanges with the traveling sisters (they go around the mission visiting all the sisters) and so there were four sisters just in our area, but it was the busiest day of the week! We had so many lessons that with each companionship we didn't have any gaps of time. It was such a cool miracle because we were able to teach so many people and have such a great experience. I just thought that was so cool!

Another thing that I started this week was reading the Book of Mormon and just highlighting each time it says Christ's name and the phrases that go with it. I LOVE this! I am learning so much about Jesus Christ and his attributes. I did this because I wanted to be able to represent Christ the best way possible, and what better way then to learn more about who He was first so that I can strive to be more like him. Especially as we are coming up on this Christmas season. I hope you all are finding ways that you can become more like Christ and best represent Him back home :)

Also, the #Lighttheworld video comes out next Friday!! Make sure to be looking for it so you can see all the amazing things you can do this year! I'm so pumped for this and I hope you all are too! :)

I am so grateful for this opportunity that I have to be out here in Missouri sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ with everyone. Thank you all so much for all your love and support!! I really appreciate it!

I hope you all have an amazing week full of amazing times! I love and miss you all! :)

Sorry this is so short!! I hope you still feel the love I have for you all :)

Love, Sister Burton

MERRY CHRISTMAS!! December 24, 2018

It's been an adventure of a week! It started with our fun skit lesson we did with the elders. We have a family that feeds us every Tuesday and her sister lives in the Alma ward and her niece is being taught by the Elders so they asked if we could all do a lesson together at the church so we did! We (missionaries) acted out the scene of 1st Nephi when they go and get the plates. It was so much fun! It was a great to bring the scriptures to life and they all loved it. Plus, I got to be Laman and Lemuel so that was fun. After the skit we had a discussion about the faith that Nephi had for them to get the plates and how Laman and Lemuel repented from rebelling and they had to act on their faith as well. It was really special because then the lady who feeds us, both of her sisters aren't members and they were talking about baptism and learning more as well. So amazing!!! It was a great night. We are going to have another big lesson with them on Wednesday and I'll let y...

CHRISTMAS EVERYDAY!! December 17,2108

Woohoo! It's almost Christmas!!! One of our favorite songs right now is Christmas everyday by David archuleta. It you haven't heard it, I encourage you to go listen to it and his whole album. Ah. So good! It's been an eventful week as well! We had MLC in bentonville which is where we went and talked about plans for our zone conference and future district councils. It was so much fun! Sister Rosenberg was called to be the other sister training leader so we get to go to that meeting together and we were able to do exchanges all day Wednesday and I stayed in Prairie Grove. It was so cool!!! I got to see a lot of the people I love and miss from that area. It was a blast being able to see them and be in their homes again. We had zone conference on Thursday and it was so fun! Since its Christmas it was a 2 hour meeting and the rest was just games and a talent show. Super cool! There are a ton of talented missionaries here. There was singing, kickboxing, roller skating, piano...
