Benny's Patriarchal blessing
We got to go to a recent convert's patriarchal blessing. It was so cool. The spirit was so strong. Even though the patriarch only knew Benny for a short few minutes, as he recieved his blessing I was blown away by how perfect it was for Benny, how much our Father in Heaven knew Benny. It was also cool to see Benny's reaction, and how he felt that he had an important work to do! I need to pull out my patriarchal blessing now!
Markus Plant man
Markus called us and he was distrought as his friend had just recently passed away. We taught him about the spirit world, about how every person would live again. As we read the scriptures he would pause us and say, read that again, that really stands out to me. As we taught with the scriptures, the spirit was strong and comforting. It was crazy to see how the plan of Salvation was able to give him peace. So grateful to be one of his "Mormon Sisters" as he calls us.
Steve
Steve Is the coolest! He was a little directionless and he heard a voice tell him to turn here. He found himself at the church building, but he didn't know what time the services were at. Then an ad came up on his phone and he refered himself. The other sisters had a lesson with him, but this week we taught him the Restoration, The plan of salvation, and the gospel of Jesus Christ! He is just so AWESOME!! He's come to church, he's reading the Book of Mormon, I am so grateful to be able to be here and teaching him!
Favorite Youth Album song. Check it out!!!

  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...
