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

TRY IT!!! July 9, 2018

Hello Friends and Family! This week was super good! I learned a lot! We got to meet our new Mission President and his wife this week! yay! They are so sweet! I am very excited to be able to work with them, even though it is sad to see the Lovelands go, they were amazing. I'm President and Sister Strong will be too! One thing I learned from President Strong this week was to TRY IT. He talked a little bit about how you won't know unless you try. This really stuck out to me because it works so well with everything! Like, you never know if that person is going to be interested in the gospel unless you try talking to them, right? You don't know if you'll be good at something unless you try. I love this so much! I'm not sure why it clicked so well, but it did. and it's TRUE! We are here to TRY. We have been sent to earth and given the gift of agency to try things. To try to improve and be better. We can't become perfect at something unless we try. I am so g...

OKLAHOMA ADVENTURES November 27, 2017

Happy Thanksgiving!!! I hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving on Thursday ! My companion and I were nicely fed by our new Bishop and his family. It was so nice! It's been an adventure shotgunning this area with two new missionaries. The area is huge here, but the members are few. Also, we don't have a car yet and we aren't sure if we will get one and my bike is in Bentonville sadly so we will have to wait till the end of this week to get that. So right now we are walking! It's been fun though, because we've been able to talk to more people that way. However we can only walk around Miami and it's a lot of walking haha but I love being here! :) My companion is Sister Knight and she's from South Ogden Utah and has been out 6 Months. She has been in three areas as well and we get along great! We've been really working hard to get to know all the members and get to know the area since we are both new and there haven't been missionaries since J...
