Happy Labor Day September 4, 2018

Mariah didn't send out a group email this week. This is what she sent to me along with pics of her sunburn. Poor girls...

Hi mom!!

Yes, yesterday we couldn't email because all of the libraries were closed and we don't have access to a computer at the church. Anyways, it's transfers next week so I won't be able to email until next Wednesday.. I'm sorry! I promise things are going great! I'm very sunburned right now because we helped park cars for 3 hours yesterday for the closeline fair here in Prairie Grove. It was awesome!! But I'm exhausted. Also, CHARLIE IS GETTING BAPTIZED ON SATURDAY!! We are so excited!! We are actually going to meet with her right after this. Tell everyone I am sorry I didn't get to talk to them yesterday! but I will talk more next Wednesday. I love you mom!!

We did a booth at the union on campus for University of Arkansas. GO PIGS!! SOOOOIIEET! It was really cool seeing someone from Jecely's mission. Things went great while we were there! We talked to lots of people and we are experimenting by not wearing proselyting clothes, it was very successful!

Have a wonderful week!! Don't worry I won't be too jealous while you are over in Iceland! I hope y'all travel safe!! Enjoy it!!

I love this area, the people, and my testimony is growing strong :)

Love, Your alive and doing well missionary daughter

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!

PLANNING WITH THE LORD February 5, 2018

Hey Everyone!! I have learned so much this week! Especially how to plan with the Lord. We set our goals this week to hit standard and find 7 new investigators, have 2 investigators on date, and have at least 4 at church. It was AMAZING! I have never prayed so hard and trusted in the Lord so much to help us find people and to reach our goals. We really focused on the people that we felt and prayed for to determine who was ready to set a baptismal date. We were able to set a date with our investigator that Sister Robinette actually taught a year ago. Then, yesterday was really the trial of our faith, because in the morning we got two calls from investigators who said they were sick and wouldn't make it to church. We were sad to hear that, but we knew the Lord would help us have someone there. Then right before the meeting started three investigators walked in and there were already two sitting down and it was a miracle! I was so full of gratitude so I went and shared my tes...
