GO HOGS!! August 1, 2018

I am staying here in Prairie Grove AR-Kansas with Sister Rosenberg another 6 weeks! woot woot!
I am so excited because we have amazing people we are working with and it's been such a fun companionship!! It'll be a great 6 more weeks! 

This week we were in a town in our area that we don't get to spend very much time in, just once a week and we weren't sure what to do. So we prayed and felt that we should walk to go see this less active member and then after go try a former person who was being taught. It was amazing to see the miracles come from that. We walked to the member's home and she said it was a miracle that we even caught her at that time, they just got home and were only staying for a little bit before leaving again. It was so cool!! We wouldn't have been able to see her if we would've driven because we would've gotten there before they were there. After that we went to visit the former and we pulled up and they were outside so we got out and said hi! They were happy to see us so we thought it was the person we went to find, but turns out it wasn't. The other person we were looking for had moved and the people we met had just moved in a couple months ago and had never met missionaries. We told them about the Book of Mormon and what our purpose is and they loved it! They said they've been wanting to go back to church, but weren't sure which one and so they wanted to know everything. It was such an amazing experience! The Lord truly is preparing people and it's been wonderful to see that. This was a testimony builder for me because it taught me a lot about the power of prayer. "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God." James 1:5. I was lacking wisdom on knowing where to go to find those who are ready and I knew there was only one way for me to find out. I needed to ask God. I know that Heavenly Father hears us and answers our prayers. I am so grateful for prayer! I am also so grateful for all of your prayers as well! I can definitely feel them and see how they are helping the Lord's work progress! You are all amazing and I challenge you all to pray if there is something you don't know about it. Study it out in your heart and mind and then ASK God. We see miracles happen when we ACT on our faith and turning to Heavenly Father is definitely an action of faith. 

I love and miss you all! Have a wonderful week!! :)

FIREFLIES AND RAIN! May 29, 2018

Hello friends and family!!  This week was so good! We had a lot of fun and visited a LOT of people! It was fantastic! The members here are so good to us and really do want to help, so we are working hard with them to help them become even greater missionaries :) It rained a lot at the beginning of the week, but it was fun knocking on peoples door in the rain. We got into a couple houses because of it :) At night the fireflies all come out and it is so AMAZING! There are lots of fields here that are just full of them and it is so cool to see at night. Fun story, so today we got to do a little photo shoot with one our members and her 3 year old son. It was so much fun! Sister Wamsley was a wedding photographer before the mission so she has skills to do it. We took pictures of them making/eating spaghetti and cutting cabbage. It was cute. We were asked to do it for our Mission Presidents wife to use for the family history booth they have in Bentonville. It was really cool

BLESSINGS January 7, 2019

This week was so good and full of blessings! It started with New years eve at Bob and Wanda's. We went and they had all kinds of party toys to celebrate the new year. There were lots of people and as we were sitting there talking with our recent convert and his family (people we are trying to teach) and then these people behind saw us and talked to us for a minute and then later that night they gave us their phone number and addresses and told us to stop by soon. It was amazing!  Tuesday we had interviews with our mission president and his wife and it was wonderful. It's so good being able to talk to them. We can tell how much they truly love and care about us which is super good. That night we had our big group lesson and we were on exchanges so I took our greenie that's down here and it was such a great lesson! At first, it was crazy and chaotic. There were so many people and lots of different t conversations at once. But after we said we would like to share a messag
