Week 56

Dear Readers of my Weekly Email,

 

Hello! Thanks so much for tuning in to episode 89! 

 

This week was amazing!

 

I got to go on exchanges with my past comp. Sister Devey! That was awesome to think back on Eagle Creek! She is such a good missionary we talked with so many people and just had an awesome day! They grow up so fast 🤧 

 

Then on Sunday all our friends canceled for coming to church. Except Paul. But when he didn't show up for sacrament meeting I was like 😕. But then he showed up for the second hour. And so did Albert!!! Albert hasn't been to church since it was 3 hours long and it was just so awesome that they both were able to come! 

 

Then we taught the plan of Salvation to a guy named Cole and it was awesome. We invited him to pray at the end of the lesson and that was one of the most sincere and awesome prayers I've ever heard!

 

Then we found a new friend Haily, who texts us back!! Among a few other friends.

 

Then we met with Aron. Aron met two missionaries from Australia in India, who gave him a Book of Mormon, but he lost contact with them. But then he ran into us last week. We taught him the plan of Salvation, and it was like one of the most spiritual experiences. The Spirit was so strong in that lesson, I felt like I was in the temple. It was incredible as we were able to answer his awesome questions. I just felt so grateful for the knowledge of why we are here and where we go after we die. That was just so awesome. And get this, we gave him a Book of Mormon when we first met him and he had read all the way to 1 Nephi 4!! Wahoo!

 

Okay, now one funny story.

We were sitting at a table on campus and a guy, Julius, sits down at the table. He says "I have a question" then he asks, "how do you talk to girls" lol. We gave him some advice and hype him up, which included Ether 12:27. It was awesome! But then we saw him talking to a girl later that day. BUT THEN, we were sitting at the same table and the end of the day and Julius tells us that he got a girl's number that day! Lol it was awesome to know how it ended. Hopefully we see him around and he keeps us updated! 

 

Have an awesome day!

  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.

  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...
