Sweet text I got from Mariah's 9th grade seminary teacher August 5, 2018

This is Brother Heywood. He has family in Prairie Grove and sent me the following text and picture. It was so sweet! He taught Mariah in seminary at Butler Middle School when she was in 9th grade. What a small world!

"I am sitting behind your beautiful, sweet daughter Mariah(Sister Burton) in fast and testimony meeting right now. What a wonderful sister she is! You can tell she is full of the Spirit and really involved in the work. It looks like she has some investigators in church today. You must be so proud of her for the marvelous work she is doing and the wonderful woman she has become.

She just got up and bore a sweet, POWERFUL testimony of the Book of Mormon and the Savior Jesus Christ and the truth of the gospel and the Church. Obviously had some great training at home and Seminary."

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!

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...
