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!! :)

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...
