Week 28 Email

-

 Hello Everyone!


This week we had a lesson with Rash and one of our members (I'm learning that lessons go 2,000,000 times better when there's a member present!!) and it was awesome! We read through the first two chapters in the Book of Mormon and he loved it! Too bad he actually lives in the Elder's area. We referred him over haha.

I came across this idea to treat your area like it's the best area in the whole mission, each companion like they're the best companion in the whole mission, each Transfer like it's the best transfer, each day like it's the best, etc! I thought that was cool! I'm definitely trying to keep my motto, no regrets!

We stopped by Chasity's house on a rough day for her and she said, how do you girls always appear at just the right time? 

We stopped by Randy and Fatima's for a lesson, but they'd just had some family drama and we ended up just praying with them and encouraging them to read the beginning of the Book of Mormon with Nephi and how he deals with family struggles.

We also put Derrick on date (for sure) for May 14!!! Bro! So excited! Now we just need to get him to come to church lol. But he's excited to be baptized and make those promises!

We had the chance to go to the baptism of three sisters in our ward that the Elders were teaching. It was awesome. The spirit there was literally so strong. Such a strong feeling of "rightness" of goodness. It was so so cool.

I love Alma35:8. Will you take a minute to read it? It's about how we pray to be heard of God, not man. Then, will you consider, how does that effect how you pray? How could it? Will you pray a real prayer tonight? A prayer to God, sincere communicate between a father and his child?

Love you all!

  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...
