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 grateful for the gospel and the things that I am learning as a missionary.

Miracle this week is we went and visited with a member who hasn't been to church in years and she said that she wants to come back now. She wants to become strong in the gospel to help her husband. It was amazing! we met her last week and then yesterday, she came to church!! It was so wonderful having her there! Even though she felt sick to her stomach, she came because she knew that was where she needed to be and how she can draw closer to her Heavenly Father again. It was such a testimony builder for me, because the Lord prepares people. She has had many experiences that have prepared her for this time to come back to church. We are going to be working hard with her and I am so excited about it! I love her and her desire to make things better. Only through the Savior Jesus Christ can we be healed and made better. I love this gospel so much and the opportunity to be a missionary. Thank you everyone for helping me and supporting me!

I love and miss you all! Have a wonderful week! I challenge you to look for the miracles and TRY!

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...
