Week 26

-

 Hey everyone!

This week Sister Devey's phone got busted (dropped while selfie-ing). Final week of the transfer, pretty crazy! This transfer has been short, but also eternal. Haha.
We went out tracting and the spirit just wasn't with us. So when we finally arrived to the area we were going to tract, we decided to study some scriptures to bring the spirit back. We read the first vision account and that was so powerful. God did appear to Joseph Smith! That strengthened my testimony, and the rest of the night ended awesome.
Exchanges were sweet as we found some awesome people. A guy found a passalong card and actually called us!!
Derrick watched General Conference with a bunch of coworkers, that amazing lil' missionary.
Also, I've been serving for 6 months! I can't believe that!! 1/3 of the mission accomplished! I want to make sure in these coming weeks to live so I have no regrets, by giving it my all!!
That's all for this week! 
Sister Cox
Here's a favorite quote from the week:
Brothers and sisters, the most powerful Being in the universe is the Father of your spirit. He knows you. He loves you with a perfect love.
God sees you not only as a mortal being on a small planet who lives for a brief season—He sees you as His child. He sees you as the being you are capable and designed to become. He wants you to know that you matter to Him.
-Elder Utchdorf

  Transfers have come. It's been an interesting week. We were able to go on exchanges which went crazy well! Sister Young and I ran into 90% Spanish speakers, who were all very friendly, and two invited us in! Between her broken Spanish and translation apps, we got a lot of referrals for the Spanish Elders! Haha.  Sister Kimmerle will be leaving to Fishers and I'll be staying in Westfield. My new companion will be Sister Hales. Also a member called and said her two sons want to be baptized so we're going to be teaching them soon! Talked with Axel over the phone, but we haven't been able to have a lesson yet. 😕 K thats all ❤ Sister Cox President and Sister Page with their favorite district.

Alysha Cox's LAST Mission Update!

  Hey Everyone!   I can't believe last week was my last week as a full time missionary. Let me tell you about my week and then I've got some final thoughts to wrap up this email series.    Last Monday we managed to squeeze 4 lessons into the brief time after pday. It was a busy week as we were helping a struggling friend and preparing another friend, Juan, for baptism. I had my departing interview with President Riding, which was so crazy! Basically this week was so busy, but it was awesome! Yesterday we were talking to people on the streets of Anderson, and we talked to several who weren't interested, but the last lady we talked to, it was so cool! She had just been praying to God for him to help, to give her something to believe he still cared about her. Then, we run into her and ask if we can share a scripture, I started reading a verse from Matthew, which turns out is the name of someone she's been struggling with. She just knew we were such a direct answer...
