PAR-TAY IN AR-KAY May 21, 2018

Hey everyone! 

I hope you are all doing well! Sister Wamsley's birthday was on Saturday and we had a member who asked us to come teach her fiance's daughter, which we are already teaching her fiance so we thought that would be a wonderful opportunity for us to teach his daughter. We went over to their house and they opened the door with little streamer things and whistles singing happy birthday. It was so cute! They had a whole cute pineapple and cactus theme party ready for sister Wamsley. They lied about the lesson just to get us over there. It was really fun though. :)

We were out looking for the members on our list from our relief society president and we stopped by the Patterson's home.(Our relief society pres. asked us to try by a list of sisters who we didn't know anything about). Brother Patterson was so sweet and surprised to see sisters, but he let us in to visit with him and his wife. We were able to talk to them about their conversion story and minister to them. It was amazing timing, because she hasn't been feeling well and he's not there all the time, but we were able to visit with both of them. We are excited to go back and continue working with them. Then, right after that we went to try a few more people and I saw a potential investigator who lived nearby so we went and ended up meeting the potentials sister who was interested! She has had many missionaries visit her and teach and now she feels she is looking for Jesus Christ's church and we were able to promise her blessings and set up a time for us to come back and share this message with her and her family. It was amazing seeing these people who have been prepared. This made me think of how we may not always see the fruit from our seeds, but as we are obedient missionaries, working hard to do what we can, it will affect the people in the area we are in. Then, later down the line future missionaries will have the opportunity to either teach those people who had been prepared or help the next family come back to church. This is such a comfort to me, because as I am trying to be the best missionary Heavenly Father wants me to be, we will be able to help this area and continue in this chain of serving others. 

I am so grateful for the opportunity to be a missionary and to share the good news with the people in Arkansas! Thank you for all your love and support! I am doing great and loving the work. I hope you all have a FANTASTIC week! 


sorry I will have to send pictures next week! My phone doesn't want to work today..

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...

GOD IS A GOD OF MIRACLES December 4, 2017

Hey everyone!! This week has been so great for the sister missionaries in Miami Oklahoma! So many good things are happening and it's wonderful! We've been able to see a lot of miracles happen. First, we were able to go to Bentonville this week for our Christmas Zone Conference which was amazing! So many good things were said and I was able to get my bike! So we can finally take a break from walking! haha But we were able to go serve and teach a few people in Baxter Springs Kansas so now I am officially a 4-state missionary, exciting :)  We've been doing service at the Coleman Theater which is an amazing theater built in the 1920s and it's beautiful! It's been fun serving there as well as the Dobson house and museum which is all about the history of Miami and a cute families home that is over 100 years old! We love being able to do service here and reach out to the people that are so involved in the community. :) Another miracle that happened this week wa...
