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

Mariah's mission blog

Mariah is serving in the Arkansas Bentonville Mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. She entered the MTC in Provo on Wednesday, August 9, 2017. She will return in February of 2019. She will serve for 18 months. She is so excited to be out there serving and teaching. She gets to write home on her Preparation Day which is usually on Mondays.  I will post the group letter she writes each week along with the pictures she includes. Her pictures haven't been visible to everyone in her emails so this will be a place to see it all. She loves to receive letters and emails and I've listed her addresses below. We are so proud of Mariah and her service. We miss her terribly but know that she is in the best place and in the best hands for this time of her life. We love you, Sister Burton!

  Hey Everyone!!  This week and half have been so good and so crazy!! So it's transfer week and I am being transferred to Springfield Missouri in the YSA ward. I am so excited about it! It's going to be sad leaving everyone here in Sugar Creek, but I'm looking forward to a new adventure with my new companion Sister Sanders :)  Last week on Pday we went to Crystal Bridges which is a very popular art museum here and it was beautiful. If you like art, keep that place in mind to visit one day. Then we had some sisters from Missouri come down for exchanges since Sister Tillotson is their training leader. That was a hoot with all four of us there. Cool story on this exchange: Sister Lloyd and I were together and we went to visit with three potential investigators that everytime sister T and I went they weren't home and guess what?? They were all home!! It was so awesome getting to talk with them and share a scripture. We had return appointments and we've started t...
