<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hello all,</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Monday we went out to lunch with Hermana Hernandez and Carmen
at Firehouse subs and it was so fun! I love that family so much. They taught us
how to shop at Publix afterwards too! Apparently there are all kinds of 2 for
1's there! That night we drove off to the Lucio family's place and when we got
there, only Brother Lucio was there! Sadness! But we got to sit and talk to him
about how he feels about the things we've been teaching and it was comforting
to hear him say that he knows it's something his family needs. Well we passed
by a super cute country store on the way back to town that was full of fishing
supplies and all kinds of kid candy! We loved it! I'm going to really miss the
country and the small towns here. When we were about to leave the store a woman
walked in and freaked out when she saw us- she was our server earlier that day
at the firehouse subs and I have never seen anyone so excited to see us! She
said she was so excited because no one lives or goes through her small town and
she was just shocked to see us there! We gave her a pass along card and she
told us to stop by and say hi at her work sometime! Well we were back in town
and felt like we should try and find some people at Walmart and guess who was
the first person we ran into when we walked in? Hermana Lucio! That's the
second time now! Her and the boys were really excited to see us and told us to
come back on Thursday night! We started talking to a couple towards the end of
the night that had met with the missionaries before! The silly Elders before us
had no record of them so I am so grateful we found them in Walmart! They have 3
adorable kids and they said we could stop by sometime next week!</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tuesday was a jam packed day full of fun! We left the
apartment early to visit a woman who wasn't home :/ we met her husband though
and he was super nice to us and was excited to talk to us until he found out we
were with the church ha ha. People crack me up when they do it, why would you
treat anyone different because of their beliefs? Silly people! We headed over
to Olimpia's so she could teach us how to make empanadas afterwards. So fun!
Not only did we learn how to make delicious empanadas, which I will make for
everyone when I get home, but we got to know her a lot better finally. She
opened up about her situation with her "husband" and it's just not a
good place for her to be in even though they have 3 kids together. She said
that she has her own house down in Guatemala that her two oldest are living in
and she plans on going back in a year with Darion and her husband will probably
stay here. I told her that I am for sure coming to visit in a couple years with
my brother and our future spouses and I'm super excited! She showed us pictures
if her house and where she lives- it is so green and so beautiful! Can't wait
to see it in real life! I have completely fallen in love with Guatemala on my
mission. We did a "power hour" later that day in an apartment complex
that we have always wanted to knock. When we first got there we were like ummmm
maybe Hispanics don't live here because we didn't see any wet mops outside or
little Hispanic kids running around anywhere but we decided that there had to
be at least one family for us to find! We first met a man names Mason who was
super nice and we got his info for the Elders. Then we knocked on a random door
and met a man named Kevin who told us that there was a Hispanic family in the
building next door- bingo! We guessed which apartment he was talking about and
these cute little Hispanic children answered the door-miracle! One of them
looked like a Mexican Alex Monroe and was so cute! Their dad Romiro came to
meet us and he was sooo nice! He just had such a good energy about him and
invited us to come back Friday to meet his wife! Out of the thousand apartments
we were led to the one Hispanic family that lives there! We were so blessed
that day for our trust in the Spirit and out diligence. We also knocked on
another random door and the girl who answered, Faith, immediately recognized us
from the bus and was so sweet. Her family was refugees from Nigeria and she was
super excited to have us send the Sisters over next week.</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hermana Santiago gave us a name of a less active who
isn't on our roles that we love next to last week and we stopped by Tuesday
night.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was a little nervous at first because sometimes less
actives aren't very happy to see us but Idis was soooo kind! She immediately
let us in and started talking up a storm the second we sat down. Her mom and
brother found the church in Honduras and she converted 12 years ago here in
Tennessee. She told us that she believes in the church and the gospel with all
of her heart, she just had a really bad experience with people at church and
doesn't want to come back right now. We later found out from a member that she
was a young woman's teacher and her young woman were really mean and would say
horrible things to her during class, it totally broke my heart! Silly teenage
girls! She is so amazing though and said that she will come back some day. I
hope it's sooner than later. The Hermanas are going to start meeting with her
regulars after I leave. We found out later from members that Idis has never let
anyone from the church in her home in a couple years and it is a miracle that
we got in! Again, I feel so blessed. I met her mom and sister too who were
visiting from Honduras and they were so sweet. They had a massive pile, like
humongous, of clothes and things they bought to take back home! It was crazy! I
guess they don't have the same stores in Honduras! We ended Tuesday night with
Jose and taught him about the pre mortal life. He's so awesome and is soaking
everything up still.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wednesday was such a fun/sad day! Our very last district
meeting :/ Hermana Schmit gave a beautiful training on how the Atonement will carry
us if we just give ourselves to the Savior. I trained on the Holy Spirit and
our relationship with him and his role in our lives and his part in the plan
that God has for us. I learned so much preparing for that training. The second
Elder Cottam told us he wanted us to train the week before, I knew I would talk
about the Holy Ghost. I testified that our mission is the place where God will
teach us how the Spirit talks to us and how to follow it's promptings and that
it is in preparation for what is to come after the mission. I ended by sharing
a really incredible experience that my father had after his mission with
following the promtings if the Spirit. It was a really spiritual experience
for me, sharing my father's story. I hope my dad knows that he has given me,
and all of his prosperity, a true example of being obedient to the Spirit and
allowing The Lord to use us as instruments in His hands. You have left us a
legacy dad. After the meeting was over everyone signed our notebooks and we had

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We all had turns and then Elder Peterson destroyed it
since he was last. He is so funny and was hitting so hard that when the pole
hit the ground (it was a metal mop handle) he totally bent it out of shape! We
were all laughing so much during the whole thing and it was a really great
bonding experience. I love my district and will always be so grateful that I
got to serve with such awesome missionaries. For lunch our companionship went
to the Sushi Train one last time and enjoyed some crunchy shrimp rolls! Can't
wait to eat REAL sushi when I get home though! We left a pass along card with a
really cute family that just gave off this vibe of strength. The dad was super
grateful and the mom was kind of creeped out when Hna Schmit told them that, it
was the best! We tried to find some people to teach at Walmart as we grabbed
something for Caterine but had no luck. That night we were able to meet a
referral from the Assistants named Suyapa and she is amazing!! She had met with
the missionaries before and loves learning about the gospel! She had been
reading in the BOM before we got there!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">She is from Honduras and has a really cute little girl.
Weird/crazy story is that 5 years ago she was dating someone that she thought
was single and got pregnant, then it turns out that he was lying the whole time
and had a wife! Well they split up but it turns out that his wife can't have
children so she's actually really grateful for Suyapa and that she shares her
daughter with them. Suyapa is super humble and super giving. She has another
daughter in Hinduras that's coming to live here in a few months! They haven't
seen each other in 4 years!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When we invited her to church she was like, "Ya of
course I'll come, I can't wait!" We were blown away by her response and
can't wait to get to know her better! Miracle! We love referrals like her!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That night we went to Hermana Paty's house for Caterine's
birthday party/to eat dinner with them! We couldn't go to her real birthday party,
because we are busy missionaries, so we made it up by going to her birthday dinner and
we gave her a cute photo album filled with pictures of us and notes for her.
She loved it! I love that family so so much! The funny part was that Cat Cat
told me that her birthday was actually the next day on the 10th but I assumed
that she didn't know her real birthday. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then later on I asked Hermana Patty and she was like ya it's
on the 10th, and then we told her that the day was the 9th and she just started
laughing so hard. She thought it was the 10th all day and even before and we
all died laughing with her. Things get crazy when you're practically a single
mom bc your husband is gone 89% of the time for work! Bless her heart!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thursday was a whirlwind of a day! We started off at the
library and afterwards we tried our friend David. Welp, David wasn't home so we
decided to knock the apartments around him. The first apartment we knocked was
a doozy. David's cousin Karen lives next door and when we knocked on her door
she had some unkind things to say tos about our religion. We explained what we
really believe, because she had some weird misconceptions, and she would keep
going off in these strange rants that honestly scared us. She would look off to
the side of us, not at us, and go on in these long rants about what she
believes but in a very possessed kind of way. I don't think I've ever been so
uncomfortable at someone's door before and it was sad that the church that she
goes to obviously preaches against us. After being freaked out at Karen's, we
knocked on a door with a cute kitty in the window and a white woman names Amy
answered. She was awesome but a little on the crazy side! She was in a car
crash 20 years ago and almost died from it. She shared with us how she saw
Jesus Christ in that moment and how it changed her life when she came back to
it after being in a coma for a few weeks. We were able to relate and share
Joseph Smith's experience with her and she after hearing a lot more about her
life she said we could send the other missionaries over some time! She was so
cute and told us all about her boyfriend who looks like Freddie Mercury and how
they are both recovering drug addicts but they have completely turned their life
around. She just got custody if her son again last year on her birthday and you
can just feel how much she loves him and how grateful she is for her children.
When we wrapped up with Amy, we decided to try David again and ended up meeting
his mom!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">She was nice but she goes to the same church Karen goes
to so she also had some weird things to say to us. We testified in the name of
Jesus Christ of the things that we shared near the end of our conversation and
something incredible happened, she said she would want us to come back to teach
her more about the Book of Mormon! And she also wanted us to keep teaching
David! Well guess who pulled up right when we were about to leave? Yep, David!
I feel like his mom and cousin really prepared us for our quick lesson with him
because we were really bold with him about a lot if things and about how there
really is only one true church. He is super cool and said that he will keep
reading in the Book of Mormon!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That night we met a referral from the Elders- Ellie. I
LOVE Ellie! She is the sweetest thing ever and is from Argentina. She's a heart
doctor here and she did some school at the U in Salt Lake City and so she has a
lot of Mormon friends. She is so full of life and just loves everything about
everything! She emulates light and love! She already has two Books of Mormon
and so we gave her a restoration pamphlet to look over for the next time we
come by. The Elders saw her the next morning at the bus stop (Where they met
her originally) and she was SO excited to tell them that she met us and she had
her pamphlet with her and pulled it out to show them! I'm so sad that we're
leaving and I don't get to continue teaching her but I'm so excited for her and
the Hermanas! I told her I'm going to look up her friends in Utah! After Ellie
we made our trek through the forest to get to the Lucios. We taught my favorite
lesson in my favorite way! We taught the plan of salvation using chalk on their
driveway! It made so much sense to Reina and she was super involved and had
tons of questions, it was awesome! I love that family so so much and am really
going to miss them! Especially Toni, he is such a special little boy!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Friday was CRAZY!!! We had an appointment at 11 with
Alicia and she made us this way yummy sopa from Mexico for lunch. It was a
tomato and chicken broth with these giant fried cauliflowers- it sounds weird
but it really was SO delicious! She also made us fresh flour tortillas which
was so refreshing because we always get corn ones! We read 2 Nephi 32 with her
and taught her baptism and the gift of the Holy Ghost. She had a lot of really
good questions about it since she was raised to believe that you get baptized
as a baby. We left her Moroni</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">8 to read and I know the Hermanas will continue to teach
her with love and respect. After that, we ran errands for like hours! We prayed
that we would be able to find someone to share the gospel with in every place
we stopped and we did! Our first stop was UPS and even though we were in the
wrong one, we needed to be there. There was this super cute guy mailing some
stuff to his brother in....San Diego! So we talked about his brother for a sec,
found out from the guy working here that we needed to go to a different one and
left. As we got in the car I told my companions that sometimes when I feel
prompted to share the gospel with an attractive man, I don't know if it's
coming from me or the Spirit! I still felt prompted to give him something as we
were about to drive away so I had Hna Schmit stop the car as Hna Torres and I
ran in to give him something. His name was Miller and he was SUPER nice and he
happily took the POS pamphlet and said he would look up our website. Then the
man working here said that his in-laws were Mormon! Turns out his wife is a
member but hasn't been active since they were married! I invited him to really
look into the LDS church because we have a really unique message for families.
He said he would and he would talk more to his wife about it! Then we met a
sweet woman in Target that shared the gospel with even though she ended up not
wanting to meet with us again bc she has had horrible experiences with other
churches. We went to the bank next and met a recent convert, Sister Gibson,
from the Green Hills Ward who is living in a fairy tale! She met her husband last
summer and he's a member and a good returned missionary. Within two weeks of
knowing each other, they got married! She shared how the first week they were
married her husband invited her to church with him and he even gave her a
blessing before they left. As she started to go she began to fall in love with
how we focus on families bc she didn't grow up in that kind of environment.
With time she asked to meet with the Sisters and was baptized by her husband in
January! Soon after her mom was baptized and they are going to be sealed in the
temple next year with their little baby boy that's due this fall! Her husband
is a country singer and song writer and she manages some country artists. Fairy
tales are real life sometimes! AND PS they are both super gorgeous people! We
also were able to share pass along cards with the people who helped us at
Trader Joes and the other UPS store. We also met a man at the UPS, Henry, who
was from China and when I asked him why he didn't believe in God he said
because he's a scientist. I immediately thought of Ellie and how she actually
talked about that. She said she had so many scientist friends who said they
could never believe in God bc you can't prove it but she said that as a
scientist she can't look at all of these things she learns and deny that God
exists! She said that being a scientist and doctor has helped her more fully
believe in God.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It breaks my heart that so many people refuse to believe
in something they can't see when they put their faith in so many other things
that they can't see.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had a beautiful dinner with the Santiago's and Hermano
just made me laugh the whole time. I am going to miss that family! Afterwards,
We were able to see a woman we met at Aldi's that night and it turns out that
her uncle Felix studied with the missionaries for a really long time! He liked
everything they taught but got stuck on the sabbath day bc he's a 7th day
Adventist. Again, it's so sad that so many church's teachings cause others to
be blind when they come across the truth. He said that he would start reading
in the Book of Mormon though! As we were trying to figure out what to do after
we saw someone walking down the street and decided to talk to them. It ended up
being our teenage friend Adolfo! We were able to teach him about prayer and he
said he really had thought about the things we said last time. Even though his
mom doesn't want anything to do with church right now, we feel like he will
come to accept the gospel and that it will be his strength in his life. I'm
excited to hear about how he's doing from the Hermanas! I felt like we needed
to go to Save A Lot after that and we walked in and there was no one to talk to
but there was a man in a wheelchair getting into he I truck so we asked if we
could help him but he said that he was a pro now. His name was Michael and he
shared with us his story of how he was in a car crash in 87- when I was born-
and how he almost died but he survived and now he can't really walk. He said
that every year on the day that he was in the crash him and his family to out
and celebrate his second chance in life. He has such an incredible outlook on
life! I felt really prompted to share a Book of Mormon with him and I don't
think I have ever felt the Spirit so strong as I've testified of it. He gladly
took it and said that he would read it. As we drove away I began to cry because
I felt so strongly that he was one of the people that I was supposed to meet,
even if it was for 10 minutes, and that he needed to hear my testimony of the
BOM- I was called to this mission to share my testimony specifically with him.
It was a really amazing feeling and I was just so grateful and will always be
grateful for that experience. I hope and pray that he runs into the
missionaries again or gives the Hermanas a call.</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Saturday morning was a blast as usual as we helped at the
pantry. It was really hard saying goodbye to everyone though. They are so sweet
and they had a card for us and all gave us the biggest hugs and thanked us for
everything. We in return thanked THEM for everything, especially Stacey. She
has really been an example that dreams come true and that just one person can
make a huge difference. I would love to have a pantry like that in salt lake
someday. I will never ever forget those people and I am grateful for the
example we were able to be to them as servants of Jesus Christ and for their
examples of selfless love and the power of change. We went out to lunch to
Sushi Train with the GH Sisters- Sister Peterson and Sister Reaman. I just love
them so much and am really going to miss them! Afterward at the library I
accidentally did something really stupid and was crying my eyes out afterwards
because I felt so bad. I asked my companions to get out of the car for a sec so
I could say a personal prayer. I poured out my heart to Heavenly Father and
pleaded that the Savior would take my guilt and worry away. I cried all over
the back seat and I literally felt like I was going to barf. Within an hour, I
felt complete peace that everything would be okay. I am so grateful that The
Lord gave me one more experience before I left where I could use His Atonement
and understand more of how it can be used in every part of my life. We were
able to see Elvin one last time during all of that and it was a really good
visit. We were able to simply share our testimonies of the gospel with him and
he said that he was really grateful for the time we have taken to teach him and
that he knows everything we teach is true. He said he knows that it is true
because it has changed him. He is grateful for the help he's received from the
Savior in quitting smoking and drinking. He said that he will start coming to
church again and I hope and pray that he will and that he will be baptized when
it's his time. I pray that his family will be baptized and sealed together some
day as well.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had dinner at the Kimbers that night and it was
amazing as usual.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hermana Paty was there too with her kids and they made
hamburgers on the grill- my dad's favorite- I felt like I was at home! We sang
them "Divina Luz" and it hurt my heart to know that in a few days I
wouldn't be able to come over for dinner and spend time with them. I am so
grateful for those families, they have such a special place in my heart and I
promised them that I will call them every week! I tried convincing them to move
to Utah! They have become so involved in the missionary work since we've gotten
here, I'm grateful for the change we've been able to see in them! We saw Alex
that night and had a really good lesson about prayer and I am just so grateful
that we were able to teach him. He told Hna Schmit and I that he was really
grateful for us and that he has learned a lot about God and Jesus Christ from
us. He told us that he is going to continue going to church and meeting with the
Hermanas. That made me so happy to hear.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We took some awkward pictures with him, he is just such a
funny character!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sunday morning we had a beautiful breakfast with Hermana
Maritza, who I call Hna Tinkerbell, and she shared her conversion story and how
she found the church in New York. She is originally from the Dominican Republic
and is a fireball! She is a single mother of two sons and is an incredibly
strong person. Church was so amazing! All of the members were so sweet and said
the kindest things to me and thanked me for my service, I hope they know how
much I love them and what amazing examples they are to me. Weird thing also
happened- my sister's ex boyfriend's cousin was in my ward that day! He asked
if I was from SD and if I was Cheslea's sister and I was like uhhhhhh ya, who
are you?</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was so neat seeing someone that has ties to my family!
Good old Johnny! Apparently we met once but I vaguely remember it! We got to be
in primary a little bit too and it was a dream come true. It was so funny to see
how all of the native kids were perfectly behaved but the American kids were
crazy and were causing a ruckus every other second.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After church we had lunch with Hna Vasquez and I just
love her and her daughter Claudia. Hermana Hubbs was there too and told us
really amazing stories from his mission in Mexico. After lunch we had dinner! H</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">aha we went to the Linares place and made Papusas one
last time! Even though I was stuffed from our last meal, I managed one down and
it was so good! I love the Linares family, they will do ANYTHING for the Lord's
work. We went and said goodbye to Alisa at her work and I almost lost it. I
don't know how I'm going to handle not seeing her anymore! She has been such a
huge part of my mission, especially in this area. I told her I would call her
as soon as I get home! We said goodbye to Sergio, Adriana and Alicia after that
and I feel so strongly that Adriana knows the gospel is true. I hope and pray
that the opportunity will come soon for her to accept it. She's so cute and when
we told her we wanted a picture she ran into her bedroom and got all dolled up!
I LOVE her. We tried several more people that night and no one was home! I was
so sad because all I wanted to do was teach the gospel to someone while i still
had this name tag! We finally found Jose home and had such an incredible lesson
with him. We taught the Plan of Salvation and when we got to the Atonement I
just started crying. I shared my experience from the day before and I felt so
loved by the Savior as I testified of the power that He can have in our lives
if we just trust Him. It was a really emotional experience because I knew it
would be one of the last lessons I ever teach. I just felt completely
overwhelmed thinking about how the Atonement has blessed me in my life,
especially during my mission. I will never be able to thank my Savior enough
for the opportunity He has given me to serve a mission and the experiences that
He has provided for me.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Welp, I feel full of mixed emotions right now. I don't
think my heart fully understand that I will be leaving in two days and that I
will be released from this calling. This has been the greatest privilege that I
have ever had. My mission is the greatest gift that God could have ever given
me besides my family. I will never forget the things that I have learned and
felt here in the mission. I will never forget these people. Never. I will never
forget how loved I am by my Savior and Heavenly Father. I don't know what else
to say right now so I will have to write another post when I get home and share
with you my experience of my last day at transfer meeting, seeing my family for
the first time again and being released. I just hope you can feel the love I
have in my heart right now for the Lord's work. There is nothing as important

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Buenas tardes! Hello, hi! This past week has gone by
super fast!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Monday night we went to an FHE at Centennial park with
some members of our ward and Alex Javier. We started late, like always, and so
we got to just sit and talk to Alex and get to know him better. He told us that
his favorite animal is a bunny, he loves bunnies! He is full of surprises! We
finally had our lesson and it was incredible! We shared a message about our
purpose in earth and Alex had tons of questions and our members answered all of
them for him. It was so amazing to have someone other than us teaching and
helping Alex understand the gospel. We ended with snack time and I ate like 3
mangos, they have become my favorite things ever!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tuesday Hermana Schmit woke up really struggling but she
was so amazing and decided to just get out and try and do her best. Well, it
just happened to be the hottest day EVER and we missed the bus so we were all
struggling! I thought I was literally going to fall over and die! We had to
take little breaks every now and again but we finally made it to Alicia's home
and taught her about repentance by reading from Alma 36, one of my favorite
chapters ever. She is so humble and since she was raised in the Catholic
Church, she is finally beginning to understand that she can study the
scriptures herself and understand them through the guidance of the Holy Ghost.
That's one thing that I am so grateful for is that the LDS church teaches us to
study things out for ourselves and receive our own answers to what is true and
what is not. We aren't taught things and expected to follow blindly, we are
encouraged to take things in, mediate and pray about those things so that we
can have our own personal testimonies of each principle. It's sad that some
people, due to current events, think that we are not encouraged to ask
questions or study things out in our minds, because that's all that we are ever
told to do! I have had a LOT of questions throughout my experience in the
church and every leader or person I have talked to has first, encouraged me to
seek my own revelation and answer it myself, and they are always so patient and
so loving! I have never been mocked or have felt ashamed or stupid when coming
to leaders with questions.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anywho, later that day, Hna Schmit received a beautiful
blessing from the Elders and one thing they said was, "..this is the last
lesson that Heavenly Father needs you to learn on your mission..." Which
got me thinking, what's my last lesson I need to learn? I'm still figuring it
out! That night we went and had Blue Coast for dinner, our favorite and walked
around the shopping center and met so many cool people! We met an awesome
family from Mexico that wanted to meet with us but lived forever away! I hate
when that happens! We met another sweet abuelita from Mexico that Hna Torres
talked to and was able to share a Book of Mormon with her. That's something
that I love getting to experience, is Hna Torres testifying that the BOM is a
record of her people, her ancestors and sharing it with other Hispanics. We
were finally able to meet with our dear friend Victor Manuel that night and had
a good chat about the importance of reading our scriptures everyday and how we
gain more of the spirit as we take time to do that.</span><br />

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wednesday morning was our last time riding the bus to
district meeting! We had a blast talking to strangers about the gospel and
seeing our favorite bus drivers! We had an excellent meeting and Hna Torres
gave a fabulous training about being diligent! She is the cutest and I was so
proud of her! Our ZLs and the GH Elders gave us a ride back to our apt afterward
and it was so fun. Elder Peterson and Elder Cottam are the funniest
companionship ever! Elder Loveless told us funny stories like how was riding
his bike on the street and a van freaked out and swerved in front of him
causing him to crash into their hood! Oh missionary stories...Later on we went
to Walmart to try and find some people to teach and guess who we saw?? Reina
and her mom, Hna Lucio! Since we didn't have the car that week, we weren't able
to go to their house and visit them so it was such a tender mercy that we saw
them in Walmart! We were able to teach Reina about the BOM and she was super
excited to read it! We also met an amazing woman from Vera Cruz who had met
with the missionaries before and went to church in Mexico! I love meeting people
from Vera Cruz and telling them that my brother lived there for a little but in
his mission! I've only met one person on my whole mission that was from Tobasco
though!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are a lot of people here from Vera Cruz though! We
had a yummy dinner with the Santiago's that night and Hna S made her own little
missionary plan, it was awesome! She wrote down a bunch of people that she was
going to contact this week! We met a new friend from Guatemala afterwards who
is sooo cool! Such a fun guy! He is ALWAYS on his phone when we come by so it
was awesome that we finally got to talk to him!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love people from Guatemala!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thursday we were able to visit our friend Silvia from
Vera Cruz that we met the day before. It was so hard to teach anything because
her kids are so sweet but they are so crazy! We were able to explain what the
BOM is and we hope that she starts reading it! She said that her and her
husband were raised Catholic but that he wants to change churches. They've also
been meeting with the Jehovah's Witnesses for a while but haven't converted yet
so we feel like this is the perfect time for them to hear the gospel! We just
hope the JWs don't anti them, they do that a lot to people that we teach! I'm
so glad that we never enter people's homes or teach the gospel and talk badly
of other people's beliefs and try to prove them wrong- it is not what Christ
would do! Which is another testimony to me that the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-Day Saints really is Christ's true church. We walked forever again that
day and made up a new game where we call put different colors of cars like
Belle for yellow cars, Mike Wazoski for green ones and etc....you get points
with each one and the first person to reach 100 gets something from the tienda
store that the other two have to buy :) the things you do when you are
deliriously walking in the hot sun for hours! We finally made the trek to
Alicia that night and they were all in the middle of leaving to Florida! They
were all super excited and we were excited for them! They asked if we could all
kneel and offer a prayer for their safety, it was a really special experience.
That night we were able to teach Alex again and had an interesting lesson about
baptism, it was a little hard for him to grasp at first but it all came
together! He just thinks SO deep and always has a billion questions, which is
great, but half of his questions don't make sense. It's the way that he learns
though, he has to ask questions in order to understand something. It's really
amazing to watch everything come together in his mind.</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Friday was the 4th of July! Flor and Jaime picked us up
that morning and we went over to make Sopa de Res with them! It was so fun! The
soup was super yummy! Flor made Horchata out of seeds and it was sooo yummy! I
am so excited to go home and try and make all of these things myself! We had an
interesting talk with them afterwards. They really really love us coming over
but they don't want to act on the things we teach them. It's so hard to explain
that it's not US that they enjoy so much, but the spirit they feel when we are
there. Hopefully they start doing the things we ask them to like praying
together and reading from the BOM so that they can feel that spirit when we're
gone. We just love them so much! We had an interesting weekly planning
afterwards. I felt overwhelmed and I was super tired from the sugar in the
Horchata and accidentally fell asleep :) whoops! Hna Schmit was pretty bothered
by it and we had an amazing experience as we talked about it afterward. My
feelings were hurt because I have done all I can to be patient with her
weaknesses and she's not always patient with mine. Now I'm not sharing this to
say that she's impatient or a mean person- because she's quite the opposite!
But as we were talking, I couldn't handle my feelings and went in the other
room to cry and think about the situation. I felt prompted to sing a hymn and
found myself singing "A Poor Wayfaring Man Of Grief" and as I got to
the end I could barely finish because I just wanted to burst out in tears. In
that moment I truly felt my Savior with me telling me that it was going to be
okay. I also realized that Christ was the most misunderstood person ever.
People rejected and killed Him <b>BUT HE STILL LOVED THEM</b>. I immediately felt so
bad for making Hermana Schmit feel bad and I began to learn that we need to forgive
others and love others as the Savior would. I found great strength and peace in
the scripture that says, "Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done
it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me." I
can't completely connect the dots for you of how it related to the situation,
but it was a really spiritual and strengthening experience.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I learned more about the Atonement that day. Hermana Schmit
had a similar experience and later apologized and then I apologized and we
apologized a million times to each other and everything was alright again! We
still love each other more than ever! Our poor Hermanna Torres probably thinks we
are crazy now! The Lord really opens our eyes, hearts and understanding when we
choose to have open communication with the ones that we love.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That night we saw Alisa for a quick second and afterwards
walked to the tienda (store) to get some yummy Mexican junk food to chomp on that night
since we had to be in by 8! We made sopa, drank our sugar filled sodas and
chowed down tons of Cheetos! The tamarindo Jarritos is my new favorite
beverage! Too bad it's loaded with sugar and I shouldn't be drinking it! We
fell asleep listening to our crazy neighbors setting off fireworks for two
hours!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Saturday we had such a fun time helping out at the
pantry! Hermana Schmit and I finally got our honorary Pantry shirts and felt so
special! I'm going to wear it every Saturday after the mission! I love the
people there so much! We spent most of the day walking but made it to Alex's
finally and were able to teach him the Restoration. It was incredible!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We watched the restoration video and the spirit was really
strong. He told is that he MIGHT come to church which kind if broke our hearts
but guess what.....</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He came to church on Sunday! It was such an amazing fast
and testimony meeting. So many of the youth shared their testimonies and some
really incredible members did as well. There are so many amazing examples in
that ward. Hermana Schmit and I went up and shared our testimonies and it was a
really sweet experience. It was hard to get any words out because I was so
overwhelmed by the Spirit. I am grateful that I had the opportunity to do that
and to do it in Spanish. I love this language so much. We ate at the Hernandez
home after which was such a treat! Hermana Teresa and her daughter Carmen are such
good examples of what a member missionary should be! Hermana's son Nestor just left
on his mission and we were talking about how much a mission changes us! I am so
grateful for my mission! After that we went and said hi to Daisy who wouldn't
let go of us and hugged us so tight! She is the cutest.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They were all leaving for work so we are planning to go
by another day. We had an <b>INCREDIBLE</b> lesson with Alisa that night. The Spirit
was so strong that we were all crying. We sang her " Lead Kindly
Light" </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">and it took everything I had to not break down and cry in
the middle of the song. I am so grateful for the Atonement and how it can truly
change our lives. Completely. I am so excited for Alisa to take the step to
coming back to church and letting The Lord change her into the person she wants
to be. The Elders came in as we were leaving and gave her such a gorgeous
blessing. Afterwards she just started laughing and crying. We didn't know what
to think at first but then she shared with us that Heavenly Father shared with
her the person that she will someday be, she saw a vision of her future self
and it was exactly what she needed to see. She said that she finally feels like
she has the courage and the motivation to go forward and make some big changes
in her life. It was incredible as all of the missionaries testified to her that
The Lord needs her, He needs her to share her story and that she is going to be
amazing! She told us beforehand that she needed to know that God was going to
be with her every single step of the way and as the Elder was finishing her
blessing, I felt the room fill with a concourse if angels. I could never
describe what I felt but I shared with her that God would be by her side the
whole time and that He has sent down His angels to be with her as well. I know
that there are so many people on the other side cheering her on and supporting
her at this time. She has been a huge part of my mission. We ended the night
teaching the restoration to our friend Jose and it went really well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He shared that his grandpa had told him that there was a
lot of confusion amongst all the religions and that the restoration made so
much sense. It was incredible to see him believe in it so strongly by the end
of our visit!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I just want you to know how much I love my Savior and how
much I love His work. I am SO blessed!</span></div>

but it's also been super stormy all week! The weather here is<br />so bipolar! The
humidity is killing me although I know it will only<br />get worse! I had kind of
a rough week bc I felt super lethargic still<br />and my brain felt like a tv full
of static sometimes but good news, I<br />have cut yeast and sugar out of my diet
and we are moving into another<br />apartment today! No more black mold! Hopefully
it helps me feel<br />better! The Donaldsons left this morning :( so we are moving
into<br />their place. My companions have been nice enough to let me have
the<br />queen bed! I'm so lucky!<br /><br />We have had some really amazing
experiences with a family named the<br />Lucios and we love them so much! We met
Hna Lucio and their kids Reina<br />and Toni at Walmart a few weeks ago and they
gave us their address but<br />it was in a town that we never heard of! We finally
had the car last<br />week and on Monday we decided to drive out there and were
hoping and<br />praying they were home bc we felt like we needed to just pop in.
It<br />was SUPER awkward at first but after we broke the ice we had an<br />amazing
experience that night as we taught them the message of the<br />restoration. As we
shared out testimonies of the Savior, the spirit<br />was really strong and they
opened up to us about their daughter Reina<br />who wasn't there. She had broken
up with her boyfriend a few weeks ago<br />and was so upset that she took a lot of
pills and tried to kill<br />herself. Her parents pleaded with us that we would
come back and talk<br />to her because they are really really worried about her.
Well, Hna<br />Lucio called us Wednesday and asked us to come over that night to
meet<br />with Reina. We taught about the plan of salvation and as we
talked<br />about the Atonement if Jesus Christ, I felt prompted to share
my<br />personal story of how I overcame a horrible break up through the
help<br />of the Savior. It was a really sacred experience for me because for
a<br />really long time, I have wondered why I ever got myself into
that<br />relationship and why I had to go through that- but Wednesday I came
to<br />understand that I had that trial and I had to experience that so
I<br />could share it with Reina. Before that point, she hadn't really
opened<br />up but as I poured out my heart to her, we both began to cry and
feel<br />the love of our Savior. It was probably one of the most
powerful<br />experiences I have had on my mission. We are planning to meet up
with<br />Reina again and we really feel like her family has been prepared
for<br />the gospel, they are amazing! Also, Toni, the 8 year old reminds me
SO<br />much of the youngest kid on the show "The Middle," he is so weird
and<br />so funny! I'll have to get pictures this week!<br /><br />Tuesday I got to go
on exchanges with Sister Cotton in the Smith<br />Springs ward and it was so fun
being in a different area and meeting<br />new people! One family we taught us
from Haiti and all of the children<br />are baptized but not the mom because their
dad won't marry her even<br />though they've been together forever and have 4 kids
together. She is<br />so precious. This sister knows the Book of Mormon like the
back of her<br />hand and didn't hesitate to go and give her neighbor a
restoration<br />pamphlet in Spanish when I offered to give her one to share. She
is<br />praying that she will find a way to be baptized the 17th of July and
I<br />believe that it's going to happen! All of the kids made plans to
have<br />family prayer everyday and pray for specific things that they
need<br />help with as a family. It was so amazing to hear their goals. There
is<br />so much power in family prayer and it truly unites us! It helps
us<br />remember our purpose here in earth and out purpose as a
family.<br /><br />Thursday we had an appointment with a guy we met at Walmart-
Walmart<br />is a goldmine!- his name is David and we were a little hesitant
at<br />first of what his intentions were when he invited us over. He
totally<br />surprised me in the lesson, he was so real with what he thought
or<br />felt and he completely understood the restoration and what it means!<br />We
are just praying that he'll get work off on Sunday so he can make<br />it to
church! That night we went to our appointment with Flor and Jose<br />was home
too! They fed us corn on the cob, sooo good! Then Flor said<br />that she had all
of the ingredients ready to make Papusas with us!<br />Best surprise ever! We had
a blast making dinner with them and Flor<br />also made this incredibly delicious
pineapple mango juice from<br />scratch! We had a yummy dinner and we taught the
plan of salvation<br />afterwards and it was wonderful. Because of our great
relationship<br />with them, we were able to be really open with them and truly
speak<br />from our hearts and invite them to do things because we really
truly<br />love them. The spirit was really strong and we know that they are
so<br />close to feeling truly converted to the things that we
teach.<br /><br />Friday night we had such a fun time at the Kimbers making
gorditas!<br />Hna Kimber's friend Elsa was there who isn't a member and she
really<br />warmed up to us. She wasn't sure about us when she met us the
last<br />time but she really likes Hna Torres! Probably because she's a
Mexican<br />too! The food was so yummy and it was so nice, as always, to be
with<br />all of them! We were able to share a message about our purpose
on<br />earth and sing "Mas Santidad Dame" and the spirit touched each of
our<br />hearts. That song is so powerful in bringing the spirit.<br /><br />Saturday
we had Spansih conference! It was so amazing! The second we<br />sat down there
was a man on the projector via skyo and Hna Torres<br />looks at me and says,
"That's my grandpa!" Well, pretty much her<br />grandpa! Another Elder from Mexico
heard about him- Elder Alvarez-<br />who's been in every calling you could
possibly think of besides an<br />Apostle and so the a Elder got in contact with
him and asked him to<br />speak to us from Mexico! They had no idea Hna Torres was
related to<br />him- tender mercy! He asked someone to read a scripture when he
was<br />speaking and we forced Hna Torres to stand up and read it and it
was<br />so cute- he asked her what her name was and then when she told him,
he<br />took his glasses off and squinted his eyes and said, "Is that
my<br />granddaughter?" It was adorable! He is an incredible man and had
so<br />many amazing things to share with us concerning the Spanish
work.<br />Everyone was confused at lunch when they served us lasagna. Lasagna
at<br />a Spanish conference- only my ward would do that :) they're
special!<br />The lasagna was super yummy but we were all expecting some kind
of<br />yummy Spanish dish! It was funny to see everyone's reactions. It<br />really
was a wonderful conference and it was such an amazing<br />experience to get to be
with all of the Spanish missionaries and feel<br />the spirit of our sacred work
with the Lamanites. It was so nice<br />seeing all of my friends like Hna Knecht
and Hna Stricklin! After the<br />meeting we rushed to the Donaldsons and has
dinner with them. It was<br />kind of our goodbye party. We had a lesson with Alex
Javier that night<br />and were so pleasantly surprised to see his sister Riccy
there who is<br />a member but hasn't been active for a while. She was incredible
and<br />helped us teach Alex about faith. Then we got to the part
about<br />repentance and something incredible happened. We watched the
video"The<br />Mediator" and talked about how God's laws must be just but with
Jesus<br />Christ there is mercy and He provides a way for us to be freed
from<br />our sins and anything that might keep us from being worthy to
live<br />with Him again. Riccy broke down about how she feels bad about
things<br />she has done and doesn't feel worthy to be in church. Hna Schmit and
I<br />were able to share our win experiences and testify to her that she<br />will
never be unworthy to go to church or to receive the blessings if<br />the gospel
because she has a Savior who wants to take those things<br />away from her. The
most amazing part is that Alex was testifying to<br />her as well! It was such a
blessing to see how he really is developing<br />a testimony of his
own.<br /><br />Alex came to church on Sunday and stayed for second hour again. He
is<br />doing so well and we feel like he will be ready for baptism next
week.<br />It has been such a blessing to see how the teachings of the
gospel<br />have changed him. After church we had lunch with Hna Vasquez and
her<br />cute daughter. She is so amazing and has really taken the things
of<br />the gospel into her heart. She found the church within the last
ten<br />years and has such a solid testimony of everything. We had a
lesson<br />with our friend Adrian after that and it was extraordinary! He read
2<br />Nephi 31 the night before and had some questions so we read it
again<br />with him. We talked about baptism and the gift if the Holy Ghost
and<br />he really soaked it in. At first he was saying that he didn't
feel<br />like he needed to be baptized, and as we asked more questions
he<br />opened up about how he didn't feel worthy to be baptized. We
simply<br />testified that he is a son of God and that he was definitely worthy
of<br />baptism if he had a sincere heart to be better and change his
life.<br />Without us even asking, he said that he wanted to be baptized and
he<br />decided to be baptized on July 27th- his brother's birthday! It was
so<br />beautiful to see how the Spirit not only opened his heart but
truly<br />helped him to understand the things that we shared with him and it
was<br />so amazing to see him light up when he made the decision! I
cannot<br />wait to skype into his baptism after my homecoming talk on the
27th!<br /><br />I know that waking up at 5 everyday played a huge part in the
miracles<br />that we have seen. Sacrifice truly does being forth the blessings
of<br />Heaven!<br /><br />Brother and sisters, something I've learned this week is
that the<br />adversary is really good at making us feel like we are not worth
the<br />blessings that Heavenly Father has in store for us. That is a
complete<br />lie. We have a Savior, Jesus Christ, who has made it possible for
us<br />to always be worthy of whatever God has planned for us. I hope you
can<br />all feel how special you are to God and know that you have so
much<br />worth and have the ability to be great!<br /><br />I love
y'all!<br /><br />Hermana Knight</span><br />

Last Monday we had an FHE
at Centennial<br />Park with some members in our ward and Elvin and his friend
Lupe. It<br />was a blast! I got to know Hna Kimber a lot better- she's Hna
Paty's<br />lil sis- and I just love her so much! She cleans Jessie
Baylin's<br />house! The cute lil musician that's married to the guy from Kings
of<br />Leon! And his brother who's married to a Victoria Secret model!
Hna<br />Kimber is almost famous by association! I had no idea so
many<br />musicians really lived here! We had snacks at the end of the
activity<br />and I over ate AGAIN and almost lost my cookies. It's so hard not
to<br />over eat when people place amazing authentic Mexican food in front
of<br />me!<br /><br />Tuesday was a doozy! I was not feeling that well and I had
many<br />moments where I thought I was going to pass out because of my
health<br />and the dang heat but the Savior completely carried me through
the<br />day. We had our last lesson with Carminia :( she told us that
she<br />believes everything we teach her, she's just worried about the
people<br />that she preaches to on Facebook- what she does as a stay at home
mom-<br />will think she's not staying true to her beliefs if she decides
to<br />accept the teachings of the restored gospel. It made me so sad that<br />she
was more concerned about what people thought of her than what her<br />Savior
thinks of her. I know that some day she'll figure it out! I<br />have complete
faith in that. I just love her so much and it was hard<br />to say goodbye. We've
been teaching Sergio's mom Alicia who just got<br />here from Mexico and she is so
amazing! She is totally catholic but is<br />super open to learning more and loves
us being in their home. We had a<br />way cool miracle happen that night- we
planned to have dinner with Hna<br />Kimber and have another member Byron give us
a ride- well dinner time<br />rolled around and Byron's phone wasn't working and
he was no where to<br />be found after waiting around for 30 minutes. As we were
on the phone<br />with Hna Kimber frantically trying to figure out what to do
because<br />she was still in the middle of cooking and couldn't get us, this
car<br />pulls up outside of Goodwill and this sweet girl asks us if we
needed<br />a ride! She was a member in the green hills ward and she was such
an<br />answer to our prayers! It turns out that I actually met her a year
ago<br />bc she manages a really cute shop downtown and I ran into her when
we<br />were there for a baseball game last summer. Small world! Hna Kimber<br />was
so excited and kept telling us that it was such a miracle that we<br />got there!
Since we didn't have a ride back, Hna Torres and I ducked<br />down sitting on the
floor in the back with Hna Kimber's three boys. So<br />illegal but so fun! We
ended our night with Elvin and I just love that<br />guy! We talked about the
scriptures and modern day prophets and ended<br />up on the subject of baptism. He
said that he would get baptized<br />someday, but not soon, so we talked about how
today is the day to<br />prepare to meet God and afterward he just sat and
thought. After some<br />golden silence, he asked us for our Bishop's number and
said he wanted<br />to ask him some questions if he was going to get baptized into
this<br />church! We happily gave him the number and I can't even imagine
what<br />he wanted to ask him. Haha Elvin is the best.<br /><br />Tuesday night I
couldn't sleep and I finally witnessed for myself that<br />Hna Torres sleep
talks! I died laughing when she turned to me and<br />laughed and just said, "I
know!" And then snoozed off again. She's the<br />cutest thing
ever!<br /><br />Wednesday was a weird day! We left early to stop by la tienda
mexicana<br />to get a surprise for Elder Cottam and Elder Peterson! We had
a<br />contest with them the week before and they lost so we got to
pick<br />something out for them to eat! We chose chilies of course! We
chose<br />some really little but hot ones! So we rode the bus there and
had<br />enough time before the meeting started to watch them suffer! We
gave<br />them 6 little chilies each to eat and Elder Cottam tried to play
it<br />cool but you could tell he was dying.....Elder Peterson on the
other<br />hand haha! He did not hide anything and we died watching him
walk<br />around in circles with his tongue sticking out and eyes watering!
He<br />made the funniest noises and when he went to grab for the water and
we<br />told him that it would just make it worse he said, "What kind if
devil<br />food is this??" </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He is such a character. After the meeting we
jumped<br />back on the bus and went into a part of town that we never go
into-<br />it's pretty ghetto and I'll admit I was a tad bit scared even
though<br />it was day light! So we took the bus forever bc our friend Adrian
said<br />he'd be there but when he got there all we found were cats! So after
I<br />played with the kitten that reminds me of Minnie we left to get back<br />on
the bus. We spent ALL of our day on the bus and then that night we<br />went
finding but didn't find anyone that interested. It was a strange<br />strange day
BUT we ran into Hermana Paty and her kids at the park and<br />she had us teach
her how to give away a BOM! I am so proud of her! She<br />has started to get this
fire in her to share the gospel, I love it!<br /><br /><br />Thursday was Zone
Conference.....my last one. We got a ride with the<br />Bellevue Sisters and when
we got to the Green Hills building all of<br />the office angels were there
checking everyone's cars and I got to see<br />my sweet little Sister Crawford
who's the same size as me. Well at<br />8:45 our ZLs walk in and tell us that the
assistants just called and<br />the whole Franklin Zone and President are waiting
for us at the<br />Franklin building! Whoops! Major miscommunication! We finally
got to<br />Franklin a little late and it was a wonderful meeting! I learned
so<br />much and was so inspired to carry on with this great work for 3
more<br />weeks and after my mission as well! The end of the meeting was
the<br />worst part though....I had to give my departing testimony :/ I
will<br />attach what I said at the end. We had a beautiful dinner with
the<br />Donaldsons that night and Elder D had plenty of marriage advice
for<br />us! He cracks me up. They leave in a week and I'm so sad to see
them<br />go back to St George! We met some cool people that night- good
day!<br /><br />On Friday we had a good weekly planning session and just as we
were<br />getting ready to leave the house, the hot burning sun disappeared
and<br />it began to pour! Literally within minutes! It was the strangest
thing<br />ever and it was raining so hard! Sister D picked us up and we went
on<br />a hunt for ponchos but by the time we found some it stopped pouring
so<br />we gave up! We saw Alicia again and were able to teach part of the<br />plan
of salvation, it was so amazing. She started recognizing that we<br />really are
different and there really is more for all of us. We made<br />it to Alex Javier's
that night and had such an amazing lesson with<br />him! He showed us his little
notebook that he's been keeping and he<br />had written down some scriptures from
the BOM that he liked- so cool!<br />He's really just diving right in. It blows my
mind that two months ago<br />he didn't even believe in God! He's a funny guy, we
were talking about<br />the resurrection and final judgment and he just looks at
us and asks,<br />"..but what about the animals?" I told him we wouldn't be able
to<br />answer that one! I love how his mind works!<br /><br />Saturday was jam packed
with fun times! We started at the pantry as<br />always and had a blast with
everyone there. Hockett always cracks me<br />up! I love that we are like best
friends with felons, people's pasts<br />mean nothing! I love those guys! We had
an awesome missionary<br />correlation and got to ride in Hno Linare's super cool
red space can<br />again! Guess what we did afterwards?? Are you ready? We met
Elvin's<br />girlfriend and daughter!! Corina and Yasmin just got here on
Thursday!<br />They made it across the borders from Honduras safely! Corina is
the<br />cutest thing ever and is sooo nice! Yasmin is only 4 and super
nervous<br />around us still, but she'll open up! Afterwards we went over to
Flor's<br />and the Kimbers picked us up for dinner! Hna Kimber made mole rojo
and<br />yummy rice and chicken! And Flor brought tons of yummy left overs
from<br />her work! Flor had a blast and it was so fun to see her being
social<br />and loving being with the members! It was just nice being with
the<br />members, especially Hna Kimber and Hna Paty, they're like family to
me<br />and I love them so much!<br /><br />Sunday was awesome! Elvin, Corina, Yasmin
and their friend made it to<br />sacrament and Corina made a lot of new friends
with the woman! Alex<br />made it too and stayed for second hour. Our lesson was
about the<br />sabbath day and it was so nest seeing every thing click for him
and<br />listening to his awesome comments! In the middle of church, Hna
Torres<br />and I received blessings from Elder Loveless, our ZL, he's like
a<br />patriarch! We received the most beautiful blessings, it was exactly<br />what
we needed to hear from our Heavenly Father. The priesthood is<br />here! And it's
organized exactly the way God needs it to be right now!<br />We are so lucky to
have it here on earth. After church we headed to<br />another member's house for
lunch and the Kimbers and Hna Paty were<br />there too! Sister Corrillo is from
Guatemala and made us yummy sopa,<br />just like the kind that Santa made me in
Paducah! It was such a tender<br />mercy because that day just happened to be the
one hear anniversary<br />from when Domingo and Santa were baptized! It was so
humbling to look<br />back and see their conversion and how I got to be a part of
it. We had<br />an awkward door contact that night- we were talking to a woman and
I<br />looked at Hna Torres and stared at her so she would say something
and<br />she got nervous and started laughing and then I started laughing-
it<br />was horrible! Haha, we have a problem, we always laugh at each
other.<br />Despite the laughter, the woman Ruby was super cool and invited us
to<br />come in Tuesday!<br /><br />This morning I got to go to my old stomping
grounds in Madison and see<br />Dr Thompson again. He is a homeopathic
chiropractor and I feel so much<br />better! He was able to tell me exactly what's
wrong with me and made<br />me a homeopathic remedy, I am SO grateful for him!
When you read about<br />the gifts if the Spirit- he totally has the gift of
healing! It is<br />incredible!<br /><br />Anyways, this week we made a goal to
sacrifice sleep and be up at 5<br />everyday to have more time to find and teach.
Wish us luck!<br /><br />I love all of you! Here's some of my departing
testimony:<br /><br />Departing Testimony<br />What do I know?<br />I know that the
power of the gospel can change lives and change people<br />through the Atonement
of Jesus Christ. I look back just 4 years ago<br />and I see a broken, misguided
and rebellious girl and I truly stand<br />all amazed as I see who I've become in
this short amount of time and I<br />am truly humbled wearing this tag with my
Savior's name, knowing that<br />iris only through Him that I am worthy to wear it
and to have this<br />calling at this time, it is only through Him that I am the
daughter of<br />God that I am at this time.<br /><br />I know that what we share as
missionaries is far more powerful and so<br />much more than having Christ's true
church on the earth and having a<br />prophet to lead and guide us- those are
extremely important things,<br />but what it really comes down to is that we have
the way back home to<br />our Father in Heaven. All that our father wants, is for
His children<br />to come back to Him and to be happy and to be the people He
created<br />them to be, and this can only be done through the restored gospel.
I<br />know that when we are inviting others to come unto Christ through<br />faith,
repentance, baptism, the gift of the Holy Ghost and enduring to<br />the end, we
are inviting them to return to their Heavenly Father.<br /><br />I know that the
Book of Mormon is the most powerful book on this earth<br />at this time. That's a
really bold statement that is said in the<br />introduction but it is true. I know
that the Book of Mormon was<br />specifically saved by God for thousands of years
for us in our day. I<br />know that it was revealed through a modern day prophet,
Joseph Smith,<br />to testify to all the world that the heavens are not closed and
that<br />God still lives and loves us, and He still speaks. The Book of
Mormon<br />has completely changed my life and was what gave me the hope and
the<br />strength to change. The Book of Mormon is what caused me to repent
and<br />come to personally know who my Savior is. The story of Alma
the<br />Younger saved my life.<br /><br />Brothers and Sisters, I know that Jesus
Christ is the savior of the<br />world. I know that He is our redeemer and that He
suffered for each<br />and everyone of us personally. I know that the work that we
are doing<br />now, as His representatives is a continuation of the work that He
did<br />when He was here on the earth. His work didn't stop with
His<br />resurrection, it continued the second He and our Heavenly
Father<br />answered a young boys prayer and we get to be a part of it right
now.<br />We are so privileged to be here.<br /><br />I know all of these things to be
true! My mission has changed me forever!<br /><br />Hermana Knight</span>Haley E.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Whoa! This week has been so busy! I don't think I've ever
worked so hard on my mission! Tuesday we were fasting and had appointments and
lessons from 8 in the morning until 9 at night! It was never ending miracles!
We met new people to teach and were able to have such powerful lessons with
people that we love! We were able to visit a woman from Cancun that a member is
friends with and she was so awesome! We're hoping to see her again this week!
We were leaving her neighborhood to another appointment and drove past a whole
street of Dr Seuss paintings on the road walls, I was freaking out! My
childhood all on one street! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We were able to visit a woman we had met the week
before and as we were teaching her and her family, it started raining REALLY
hard but the spirit was so strong as they intently listened to us share the
message of how God restored a prophet and all of His truth to the earth. The
even cooler thin about that appointment was at the beginning the father said
the prayer and it was way intense and the spirit definitely was not there and
his daughter was in the kitchen on her phone not even paying attention to what
he was saying- well we all felt prompted to sing after his prayer so we sang
"More Holiness Give Me" and within the first verse their daughter
came into the living room and sat beside us and we all just felt this
overwhelming peace. The power of hymns is real my friends. We also knocked on
one of their neighbor's doors and met Adrian and he is super cool! We taught
his mom a few days later and they are so excited to read the BOM! Adrian's
little sister Daisy is super shy and never talks when we ask her questions but
she always gives us the biggest hugs when we come and go and won't let go of us
for like 20 seconds! I love that family! Tuesday was a true example to me of
how powerful our fasts can be when we have a purpose and what we can do and
accomplish when The Lord sees that we're doing our best and blesses us. Also,
we taught a woman that day who said that she doesn't feel comfortable in any
church she's been to and at this point she doesn't know where she needs to be
with her kids- I was able to share my grandmother's conversion story with her,
about how she prayed and prayed to know what church to raise her boys in and
had the missionaries knock on her door, and knew that it was her answer and
that she had found Christ's true church. I was able to testify to Carminia that
God has a place for her, that He has His true church on the earth. It was a
very special experience. That night we taught our two favorite people Jose and
Flor and had so much fun bc they literally tried to feed us everything in their
kitchen, including Abuelita and pan, which I was more than happy to accept!
Flor doesn't work Sunday and said she would come to church-yay!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wednesday was a fun District Meeting and even though we
have a lot of new faces this transfer, I really love my district. Later that
day we had a crazy thing happen. We had a member call us, Francis- he's a
little intense, and ask us to take him to the front office of some apartments
he wants to move into so we could translate for him because he only speaks Spanish.
Well as we're getting out of our car we see one of our investigators that we
haven't seen in forever get home from work and so we went to see him after we
helped our friend and not only was he home finally, but he immediately let us
in! We taught the restoration and it was a really neat experience. His name is
Jose and he's a single dad of the cutest little girl and needs the gospel. We
had an incredible lesson later that night with Alex, one of our member's sons,
who wasn't interested in the gospel before. When we first met him, he said he
didn't believe in God, and then this past week he's begun praying and reading
and has a belief in God now! It is so neat to see such an incredible change in
him!</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thursday was a pretty intense day. That morning we got a
text from Carminia saying that she felt like she didn't need to meet with us
anymore because not everything matches up to what she was taught in her last
church. My heart was so sad because just two days earlier we read the Book Of Mormon together
after I shared my grandmother's experience and when we were done she told us
that she felt like God was speaking to her whenever she read the Book of
Mormon. It's hard to understand sometimes just how tricky the adversary us and
how hard he will work on people to make them feel like this isn't God's true
church- even after they've received witnesses that it is. He's such a tricky
guy that Satan! Carminia said we could come see her one more time, tomorrow, so
keep her in your prayers! That night we split up with Hermana Santiago and her
daughter Mayra. Hermana Schmit and Hernana Torres went off with Mayra and I was all by
myself with Hermana Santiago. It was super weird not being with my
companions and Hermana Santiago is so cute and little but she's a little
intimidating! (Now I know how people feel when they meet me!) Well, it didn't
help that all of our appointments fell through and that the less active we went to see
ran in her house when we pulled up and hid- even though her toddler son was
still out by himself! But we ended up talking with a woman we had met before.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Patricia. Paty, and Hermana Santiago totally hit it off and I
just felt like the odd man out. I tried sharing something about the gospel and
Hermana cut me off and said what I wanted to say because she didn't feel like I could
express myself well enough in Spanish I guess :/ well, I almost started to cry,
feeling like Hermana had no faith in me and my ability to teach, and I even thought
to myself that I should just walk away and cry in the car. BUT, that is not
what Christ would do. I sucked up my pride and prayed to Heavenly Father to
please make my hurt feelings better and help me to know what I could do to
bring the Spirit to Paty before we left. I didn't get to participate in anymore
of the conversation but before we left I felt like I needed to sing a song.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So I pulled out my iPad and looked up "Asombro Me
Da" (I Stand All </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Amazed) and Hermana Santiago gave me a weird look when I told
her we were going to sing but as we sang, I noticed Paty put her head down and
started wiping her eyes, then my eyes started to fill with tears and you could
just feel the love of our Savior so strongly in the room. I promised Paty that
the things that we teach will help her to always have that feeling of love in
her home and she asked us to come back this Wednesday. I am so grateful for the
Lord's help that evening and that I was still able to be used as an instrument
in His hand in the way that I could. Once again, the power of hymns is real.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had a trainer/trainee meeting on Friday with President
and Sister Andersen and the APs (assistants to the Mission President) and it was so fun! We separated as trainers and
trainees and I was so grateful because at one point they ask us what we're
struggling with as a trainer and Hermana Schmit and I couldn't think of one thing!
Hermana Torres is perfect! I love that Hermana so much!</span><br />

Sister King and my heart began to break as I realized that it would be the last
time that I would see her as a missionary :( I HATE goodbyes! We had a fun
Friday night teaching- especially teaching a referral from the Elders, Victor.
He used to be heavy into drugs and almost died, he's only 20 and is really
changing his life around. He introduced us to his older brother Marco who is
mentally challenged and I felt so honored to meet him. It has become even
clearer to me on my mission how special handicapped people are and how they are
truly the most valiant and pure in heart spirits.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Saturday was great- started out at the Pantry again and I

Hockett who did time for like 8 years but he's the biggest teddy bear!</span><br />

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">He always tells us that he's got our back and him and a
Jay call me "Sweet 16" because they can't believe I'm as old as I am. I love how
everyone in the Pantry, those who are serving and those who are being served,
are just trying to be better and have better lives. It's so amazing to see
people for who they can become. There is a man who used to live under the
bridge and go to the pantry for food every week, he was a musician and played
on the streets. Well someone from Sweden was visiting and liked his stuff and
now he's in Sweden playing sold out concerts! I love that we all have the
ability to change and be the people we want to be. Dreams really can come true!
After we finished helping at the pantry, we walked over to McDonalds with out friend
Jay who also just got out if prison. We've been teaching him a little but for the
past few weeks here and there and we sat down and talked about the plan of
salvation. He had so many good questions and has a true desire to change. He
said he knows that what we teach is true purely because of the examples that we
are and the way he feels when he sees us, he said he just sees light whenever
we enter the pantry- that was a really powerful thing to hear. He decided to
get baptized on July 5th and we are so excited for him!! He really has such a
humble and good heart. We had a sweet lesson with Elvin that night as well and
planned on fasting with him the next day together to help him feel more
prepared for baptism and have a date set.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sunday was such an incredible day! Our hard work payed
off and a lot of our friends came to church with us! Flor was there and loved
every second of it! She was just beaming and some already knew some of the
members! Elvin also came and brought a friend. The biggest miracle was that
Alex Javier came- the member's son- and everyone was like "whoa!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">How did you get him here?" And we just explained
that we started teaching him and he wanted to come himself! I guess he's been
super against the church in the past. We feel so lucky that we get to teach him
now! We had such a fun time at a Father's Day lunch with our ward mission
leader and his family- the Linares'- and the Requelmes. They are so much fun
and Hna Linares taught us how to make Papusas from El Salvador and Hna Requelme
made this incredible chicken pie from Chile.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I ate so much that I literally felt like I was going to
burst! We went to the going away dinner later that night for Nestor who's
leaving for his mission to st George Utah. We have been kind of teaching one of
his best friends on Facebook and were able to teach him about Joseph Smith's
first vision in the chapel after the dinner, it was a really neat experience.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Welp, if you're wondering why I write so much- it's
because I don't write in my journal- this practically is my journal! Last week
was incredible and I finally feel like I'm putting all of my heart and soul
into the Lord's work here. I'm going to keep working like there's no end. It's
the only way I don't break down and cry every second. I love my mission with
every piece of my heart and have never been so grateful for anything in my
life. I am excited to see what miracles await us these next 4 weeks and how
much more I will change to be the best person I can be.</span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mis hermanos y hermanas, hola!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This week has been super amazing!! First, I will start
with a funny story....</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So on Monday, we has cleaned out our entire apartment and
found tons of Elder's old clothes, so we thought we would give it to the Elders
that love nearby before they leave in case they could use any of it. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well, 6 pm rolled around and we started on our way to an
appointment and decided to drop off the clothes for the Elders at their door
since it was on the way. Well as we approached the Elder's house, the door and
screen door were wide open! So we went to the front door and I peaked my head
in first and dropped the clothes in the doorway and look up and what do I see?
One of the Elders, mid scramble, not completely clothed! He was in no way naked
but .....Wah! I was so stunned as I hurried and turned away that I didn't have
time to warn Hermana Schmit as she did exactly what I had done and saw exactly
what I saw. The poor Elder just put his arms up at that point and didn't know
what to do either. Hermana Schmit quickly turned away as I had and we bolted for
the street. I couldn't help but start laughing uncontrollably. This Elder is
like our little brother, and if we weren't missionaries, it probably wouldn't
have been so awkward- but we are missionaries- and it was super funny and
awkward! We had an hour walk to our appointment and I couldn't stop myself from
laughing the entire time! We text and told him not to worry and that we weren't
laughing at him personally. He wrote back apologizing profusely and said that
he was cleaning and didn't want his nice clothes to get dirty! So lesson
learned, never ever ever peak into an Elder's place! -</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Even if the door is wide open!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tuesday was super exciting!! Hermana Schmit and I arrived
early to transfer meeting for the trainer meeting and when we walked into the
room where all the trainees were I began making my guess as to who would be
with us! There were three Hermanas and one of them looked Hispanic, was super
adorable and has amazing style- so naturally I felt like she would be with us!
Well transfer meeting starts and first the missionaries going home gave their
departing advice and that was sad to see them and realize that next meeting,
that will be me!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Afterwards they had all of the new missionaries stand up
and introduce themselves and then one by one they read their calls of where
they would be serving and who they would be with. Well the first two Hermanas
went and they weren't with us......cute little Hermana Torres went up to the
mic and announced her call and we came running from both sides and gave her the
biggest hug! Hermana Torres is incredible!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First of all, she is from Monterrey Mexico but grew up in
Texas so she speaks perfect Spanish and perfect English! A dream come true! She
is such a natural teacher and doesn't even need to be trained! She knows
exactly what she's doing! But she is <b>SUPER</b> humble and always eager to learn
from us! Anywho, after the meeting ended we had a blast getting to see all of
our missionary friends and catch up! The energy that is in a transfer meeting
is unreal! When I get back home I want to go to all of the transfer meetings in
my area and just feel the spirit of the work still. My temple recommend expired
so I had to get interviewed by President Andersen for a new one after the
meeting, and as I answered the interview questions I just was overwhelmed by
the spirit as I answered with an honest heart. Being found worthy to enter into
the Lord's house is an incredible blessing. I am stoked to have a temple
recommend for the next two years that says my stake is the Tennessee Nashville
Mission!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tuesday after we dropped off Hna Torres' belongings, we
got to work!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We went and taught the Restoration to Sergio's mom and it
was incredible! Hermana Torres was just hours into the mission and she taught
so powerfully and so naturally! I just love her! We've been crazy busy ever
since then. I don't feel like I've had time at all to just sit down and breath
but it's been amazing! We had several amazing lessons with Elvin and he gave us
his coffee the night we taught him about the word of wisdom! He's incredible!
He took us out to eat for lunch on Saturday to this super yummy vegetarian
Indian place! I was in heaven and ate so much! We were so full afterward that
it hurt out stomachs to walk! Probably the only time I'll get Indian food in
the south!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are a lot of really amazing things that happened
last week but I just want to share something that I was thinking about this
morning as I was writing my dear Aunt Jenny...</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A few years ago, I was in a pretty bad place in my life.
I had no goals, I didn't have the best friends and I spent all of my free time
either sleeping or partying. I never cared about anything- I just lived moment
to moment. Well, in the midst of this cycle of bad choices, I was working at
Wingers in Downtown Salt Lake. I was working the lunch shift and wasn't feeling
very good from the night before...</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then, to my surprise, my humongous teddy bear uncle JD
walked in with a bunch of other business men! I was so excited to see someone
from home and I was also a little embarrassed. We talked about how my cousin
Jaxon was just born and he explains that they had to use a crane to get him out
of my aunt! It was a nice short visit, and I was just grateful to have seen him
for those 45 minutes.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNGBgBzkOaaifhNbetqFM7mRxRRxhBnyaSe8qc1hwNJV-RA7gT2uSyZ9wsZtEyD2Bf6flAbqL6B13ynUK9OVVJaADj3TLsnkjQN2hi6SkyLBN3kFQQRHXBmYL1lTJ_hiyrWx3-bYoS6hIa/s1600/Jaxon+and+JD.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNGBgBzkOaaifhNbetqFM7mRxRRxhBnyaSe8qc1hwNJV-RA7gT2uSyZ9wsZtEyD2Bf6flAbqL6B13ynUK9OVVJaADj3TLsnkjQN2hi6SkyLBN3kFQQRHXBmYL1lTJ_hiyrWx3-bYoS6hIa/s1600/Jaxon+and+JD.jpg" height="320" width="252" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well, my Aunt Jenny wrote today about how Jaxon is
getting ready to go to kindergarten after the summer and I looked back at who I
was when he was born, and who I am now, just a few years later. I am living
proof that the gospel of Jesus Christ is true and that it has the power to
cleanse us and give us a new beginning. Five years ago I was confused, unhappy,
hopeless and had no future with the way I was living life. Today I have peace,
joy, guidance, purpose and hope. The gospel changes lives. I think of one of my
favorite hymns, I Stand All Amazed, and see that song with new eyes. I truly am
amazed at the person I have been able to become in such a short time. I am
amazed that I no longer feel the guilt or pains of my past. I am amazed that I
have had this last year to be an instrument in God's hands. I am amazed that I
finally have purpose and that I finally have a hope for the future. No person
can look at my life and tell me that the power of Jesus Christ and His
Atonement isn't real.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I know, with all of my heart, that Jesus Christ is my
Savior and that He is your Savior. Because of Him, we can have a peace of mind
with our past, we can have new beginnings, we can see the hope in all things,
we can be happy and we can live again with our families. This world is not
perfect, we are not perfect, there's a lot of crazy things going on in our
lives and all around us BUT, all can and WILL be made right someday through
Jesus Christ. That is the promise that each of us have if we just accept Him
and let Him work within our hearts and our lives. I promise you that nothing
and nobody else can give you the happiness and peace that He can.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, look forward with faith. Trust God. Trust in Jesus
Christ. Love those that are in your life. Be kind. Share the hope and light
that you have. Stay true to the child of God that you are. Know and understand
that there are so many unimaginable blessings and promises waiting for us in
this life, and after, if we but stay faithful.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I leave these things with you in the name of our loving
Savior, Jesus Christ, amen.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">G'day!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This past week has been such a blessing! During this last
transfer, we had a lot of people kind of phase out of our lives and it was
heart breaking but this past week some of them have come back AND we've met
some incredible new people as well!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Last Monday we were hurrying, before P-Day ended, at
Walmart and met a really cool guy named Avelino! He said he had met with the
missionaries a year ago and pretty much recited the first vision to us! He was
super excited to see us and we're going over tomorrow to teach his family!
Miracle! </span><br />

<span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My favorite Elders! Left to right- Elder
Leavitt, Elder Harris-from Hawaii, Elder Cottam and Eldee Randall! They're all
leaving except Elder Cottam!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We also went bowling last Monday and the Elders just happened to be
there too! It was a crazy coincidence and such a tender mercy because we had so
much fun bowling our cares away and getting to know the Elders better- who 3 out
of the 4 are leaving this transfer! I either really suck at bowling or I have
incredible luck and everyone was laughing at me when the ball slipped out of my
fingers and went flying behind me- whoops! I am the official dork of my
district but I love it- I'm just adorkable! We also had time to stop by the
Hindu temple here and it was interesting to see the similarities in our faiths
and also the differences. I love that temples are so sacred to them as well. I
love truly seeing how there really are parts of the truth in almost every other
faith or church and how lucky we are to have ALL of those precious truths in
one place. We had an FHE that night with Elvin in the Santiago's home and
Hermano S was incredible and pretty much taught the restoration again but
through the Bible and with perfect Spanish! It was exactly what Elvin needed
and we all enjoyed leche con arroz after! Yum yum! The work truly does push
forward with more power when the missionaries and members work together!</span><br />

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On Wednesday I had the opportunity to give a training
during District meeting on Weekly Planning- something that I kind if dread
every week!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Weekly Planning is when we take 3 hours on Friday every
week to plan out the next week with people we will be seeing and what we feel
like we need to teach them, how we'll find new people, involve the ward and etc
etc. It was such a cool experience because as I studied and prepared I had my
eyes opened to how important it really is and that we can enjoy doing it! In my
preparation for it I read some scriptures in the BOM that blew my mind. They
talked about how the adversary is always making plans and that he is diligent
in his work- uhhhhhh whoa!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If the adversary is constantly planning and scheming and
if he is </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">diligent- then how much more important should it be as
missionaries, and Saints, to be constantly planning to follow God's will for
His work and for our personal lives and be persistent and diligent in doing all
we can do to play our part of His great plan? It's SO important people!! If
you're not planning to do great things and keep moving forward on your path to
eternal life, than the adversary will be diligent in having you follow his plan
for you instead- stay focused folks! Anywho, I shared that and some other
thoughts in my training and suggested that we wear costumes or have some kind
of theme during weekly planning so that it's fun and enjoyable. So I made a
slide show of me with different makeup on- like a puppy, Harry Potter, a
Lamanite and fun stuff like that. I couldn't sleep the night before so I went
into the closet and used my giant eyeliner from my mom to paint my face. I'm so
weird, but it was so fun.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thursday I was feeling sick and slept in and when we were
leaving the apartment for the day we just felt like we had no energy. Well, we
went and taught such an incredible lesson to our friend Camilia. We taught the
last half if the plan if salvation and she loved it and said she believed
everything we told her! She also said she believe Joseph Smith had a vision and
saw HF and JC! Well we walked out of the lesson walking on cloud nine and
Hermana Schmit found a penny. And then I found a penny. And then we realized
that the sidewalk was showered with old pennies and we just went crazy picking
them all up! </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was in Heaven! I have had a weird knack for finding
pennies my entire mission and taught Hna Schmit about it. That day I
experienced the song "Pennies from Heaven!" Heavenly Father must have
been really pleased with us after that lesson! That night we had dinner with
the Santiago family and they grilled yummy salmon and then their daughter Mayra
came out with us and we had a miracle happen!!!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So remember those two young boys we met in the street
like two months ago? Angel and Miguel? And then we met their mom Ana and she
was so amazing! Well Miguel randomly text us and said that Ana didn't want us
to come back and talk to Angel so we were super confused and heart broken and
didn't try to go back over. Well, we planned to go over and just see how they
were doing and the second we walked up Ana was at the door welcoming us in and
asked where the heck we had been! She said she had been thinking of us that
morning and wondering why we never came back. We told her what Miguel said-
who's not really her</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">son- and she said that he was kind if a liar and that she
never said that. He also moved a month ago without telling her- so he's kind of
crazy. Anyways, she told us that she had been waiting for us to come back
forever! We sat at her cute kitchen table with her son Angel and taught the
Restoration and Mayra bore testimony of the Book of Mormon and how she
personally came to know it was true. It was so amazing and I'm sad that we
didn't go over sooner! Ana wants to read the Book of Mormon with Angel and she's
really excited to find out for herself if these things are true or not! Keep
them in your prayers please! Such special people!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Friday we had an amazing weekly planning session :) and
at the end we just had this overwhelming love for one another and started to
cry at the thought of one if us leaving for transfers. We really were hoping to
stay together this transfer and team train a new missionary to keep focused and
stay on fire. So, being the obnoxious missionaries that we are, we text
President Andersen and said, "hey President! We just wanted to let you
know that we received revelation that we will be staying together this next
transfer and we'll be team training. Sure do love you! Have a blessed day!
We'll see you Tuesday when we pick up our new trainee!" Well, we didn't
hear back from him all day! That night we went to what we thought was dinner at
the Kimbers and ended up being a birthday party for Brother Kimber and ended up
staying all night as they grilled the food, had a piƱata, ate cake and made us
snow cones! But it was awesome because a)we love all of them- Hna Kimber is
sisters with Hna Juarez who is our favorite so it was a blast being with all of
them, I felt like I was at home with my family. B) their other sister Isabelle
who isn't a member was there and she was so talkative with us the whole time! I
guess she's taken all of the lessons but doesn't want to leave the Catholic
Church but she did invite us to eat dinner with her sometime so we're hoping
that by small and simple visits we will be able to help her gain a testimony of
the restored gospel! We're excited!</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anywho, as we were leaving the bday fiesta, I looked at
the phone and noticed that President called twice and text us asking us to call
him back! Gasp! We called him back ASAP but didn't answer! So then we text him
telling to call us back because he was giving us anxiety! Well, Hermana Kimber
drove us home finally and as we were about to get out of the car, President
called! I quickly answered and the first thing he said was,"I want to know
how you knew!" And I was like whaaaat?? </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And then he said that he received the same revelation and
that Hermana Schmit and I would be staying together for our last transfer and
training! We were crying and asked him if he was serious and when he said yes
we just screamed! We hurried and told Hna Kimber and she so sweetly said that
this was a huge blessing for her and the members and that they would be
thanking Heavenly Father that night. My heart is just so full of love for the
members here and the people we teach and I am so so excited to stay and be with
my best friend Hna Schmit and have the exciting opportunity to also serve with
a brand new</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had an amazing spirit at Stake Conference this
weekend. Saturday night session was all about hastening the work and the spirit
was so strong. I received so much insight for the kind of member missionary I
want to be when I go home, I never want to be separated from this great work!
President Watson, the stake president, is such a funny man and I just love him.
He brings such a funny and powerful tone into the meetings. After the Saturday
session, the Donaldsons- our favorite senior couple- took us out for ice cream.
The next morning in Sunday, they made breakfast for us and the Elders and it
was such a treat just getting to sit and talk for a while with all of them. The
missionaries that I serve with are absolutely incredible. Each missionary has
such an amazing story and such a love for the work. Sunday stake conference was
excellent as well and it was cool to see the whole stake and feel the power of
our unity as Latter-Day Saints- especially as we sang the Spirit of God. We had
an amazing lesson with Elvin that night as we read from 2 Nephi 31 and let him
learn for himself the importance of baptism and receiving the gift of the Holy
Ghost. He said he'll get baptized "someday" and we invited him to
read from the Book of Mormon everyday this week and we know that
"someday" will be soon if he truly reads.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I just want to share my testimony if the Book of Mormon.
Everything that I believe hangs on that book. All one has to do is simply pick
it up and read it to understand just how powerful it is. That book taught me
that I have a Savior. That book taught me that through my Savior, I could start
over new and have a fresh new page everyday. That book has testified to me that
the heavens are once again open and that God speaks to His children in our day.
I can confidently say that this book will change every single person's life as
it has mine, if they will only take the time to sincerely read from it, with
true intentions to be a better person and come closer to God. I invite you all
to take time this week to remind yourself of why you love that book. I invite
all who have not felt the power and love of that book yet to pick it up and
read and pay attention to the way that it makes you feel. I promise it will
being you peace, love and hope into your life.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hola hola hola! I truly hope that everyone had a
beautiful week! This past week has been a very wonderful one for me. Let me
tell you about each day....</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Monday, we hopped on the bus and went to the Frist- the
visual arts museum here- and had a lovely time looking at the art they had
depicting wars of old and in our time. There was a part of the museum that was
all hands in and they had all kinds of things to do! We drew self portraits,
made Chinese lanterns, sketched a dummy, made our very own original print that
we sketched and carved into styrofoam. A lovely woman from Prussia helped us
and she was such a delight to talk to! That night we went to different stores
by our place and invited every Hispanic we saw to our open house that weekend
and met some really cool people from Mexico and Brazil. We were able to visit a
woman, Maribel, who we hadn't seen in a while and she fed us candy as we talked
about what makes our church different from others. We ended the night by
visiting with our friend Jay on our way home who is amazing because when I
first met him he said he was atheist but he's read in the Book of Mormon a
little bit and I can see his heart truly softening.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tuesday we had an amazing lesson with our friend Carmilla
about the plan of salvation. It was amazing because it was completely led by
the Spirit and our experience from the mission. We went and visited our
favorite girl Alisa at her work and she completely spoiled us and fed us pizza,
meatballs and gelato! She works at the cutest place called CoCo's Italian
Market-they play cute old music from the rat pack days, have a bocci ball court
and have all kinds of goodies from Italy! It was just nice getting to see Alisa
and see her in her work element- she's amazing! As we were waiting for the bus
afterwards I looked at Hna Schmit and told her that we weren't supposed to get
on the bus yet, we were supposed to go to a thrift store- so we walked to
Goodwill and the second got to the door, our favorite recent convert, Ana
Maria, and her cute son Jeremy walked up and she had a referral for us!
Miracle! We were able to teach a family we met at Walmart previously and taught
then about prayer. We ended our night with Elvin. Elvin Elvin Elvin...he is
such an interesting person! I just love him! We had a really good lesson about
faith, repentance and baptism and he had so many good questions as usual!</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wednesday we had an awesome Zone Meeting! We were going
to leave at 6 AM and hop on the bus to Antioch for the meeting but the
Donaldsons saved our lives and gave us a ride! There were so many good training
so given by our leaders about charity, working with the ward, finding and
having powerful visits with those that we love. I was really inspired by he one
about charity- I was asking Heavenly Father the night before how I was going to
get through the rest of my mission, because sometimes I feel overwhelmed, but
in that meeting He told me through the Spirit, "Charity will carry you
these next two months." It was just what I needed to hear and I gained a
renewed energy to serve others with love and serve in whatever capacity I can.
After the meeting we had exchanges and I went with Sister Larsen (my good
friend from Paducah!) to her area and got to do English work for the day! It
was so neat meeting their investigators and feeling the immediate love that
Heavenly Father has for them. I was able to speak to the Hispanics we saw and
met a man who had read the Book of Mormon and Pearl of Great Price already! He
said he would love for the Spanish missionaries in his area to come by and I
hope they make it over there and visit him more! I learned a lot about being guided
through humble prayers from Sis Larsen, she's an awesome missionary.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thursday morning I came back to West Nash with a new hop
in my step and happily charged the streets, talking to everyone! We stopped by
and wished one of our favorite little girls a happy birthday and later that
night we had dinner with our favorite Hermana Paty again and it was amazing! I
got to do her daughter Cynthia's makeup and hair for her 8th grade dance. It
was so fun spending time with her and making her feel good about herself. She
looked so cute for the dance and was so excited to show her friends her new
look! I LOVE that family! We were able to visit with Victor later that night
and read the first chapter of the Book of Mormon and it was amazing! He is just
soaking everything up and just lights up when we are there!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Friday we had a really good weekly planning session-
everything just came together really fast and there was time left over so I
gave Hna Schmit a haircut! I am starting to feel a huge pull to go back into that
kind if work when I get back! I was so impressed with my cutting abilities even
though I haven't practiced cutting hair.....like forever! That day we went and visited Adriana and
the girls and she was <i>suuuuper</i> nervous because her mother and sister-in-law
were on their way from Mexico and she hasn't seen them in 9 years! We were able
to bring the Spirit of peace into her home and talked to her about her
potential as a daughter of God. She is so close to the Spirit and understands
everything we share with her, she's just trying to find the courageous change
some things in her life right now. She's incredible. I just love and adore her.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Friday night we had an open house, no one really came but
members, but it was good for the ward to be reminded of what the programs in
the church really teach and why we have them. We had a recent convert come and
he just loved it and was excited to meet more members!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Saturday was a gorgeous day. We started off giving
service at the pantry again. I just love that place and each and every single
person that is there. I love the volunteers we work with and I love the people
that we get to help. There are a handful of guys that come and volunteer that
live in the penitentiary and they are incredible. We've developed really great
friendships with them and last week we gave them all a Book of Mormon and I was
able to testify to them that the book has given me the hope and peace that I
can truly put my past behind me and start new through Jesus Christ. They each
said that is exactly what they want in their lives and one of them, Jay, met
with the Elders and loved his visit with him. I have a solid testimony that
service softens people's hearts, it is sharing the gospel through our actions
and doors will be opened for us over time to share the message of Jesus Christ.
I have seen this in just the 8 weeks we've been helping out at the pantry. I
was reading in the Book of Mormon this week and reading King Benjamin's words
truly touched my heart when he spoke of service. I have often wondered what
kind of person I want to be after my mission and I feel so strongly that I just
want to live a life of service. I want to always be abounding in good works. I
invite you all to find some way this week that you can serve in whatever
capacity your time and talents allow you.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After the pantry, we brought food up to Adriana and her
girls. Well, the bus never came and we walked a little over a mile to get to
her apartment up a really steep hill. In that moment as the weight of the food
was hurting my shoulders and my back, I tried to imagine how Christ must have
felt as He carried up the cross to Calvary. I can't imagine the pain He was in.
My pilgrimage up the hill was well worth it, as we unpacked the food for them
onto their table, their eyes lit up and Adriana was so grateful. This must be
just a piece of the joy that our Jesus Christ must feel as our Savior- because
He is able to give us something far greater than food- He has provided us with
a way to receive eternal life and live with our families forever. I will never
forget this moment in my mission.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Throughout the day Saturday we were able to visit a less
active who cannot come to church because she works every Sunday. When we first got
there, I felt super stressed as her son was yanking my glasses off my face and
trying to hit me with things, she was speaking badly about someone we knew and
I just wanted to cry. I said a little prayer in my heart and asked Heavenly
Father what we could do to bring the Spirit into their home. She mentioned that
she loved singing hymns so we stopped the conversation that was going in and
asked to sing a hymn and share a message. We started with Nearer My God To Thee
and the tone of our visit did a 180 as her friend, who was also a less active
member, began to cry during the hymn. I started to cry as well and my heart
just hurt thinking about when the last time was that these woman had felt the
Spirit in their lives. We read from Jacob 3:1-2 in the Book of Mormon that
says:</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 But behold, I, Jacob, would speak unto you that are
pure in heart.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Look unto God with firmness of mind, and pray unto him
with exceeding faith, and he will console you in your afflictions, and he will
plead your cause, and send down justice upon those who seek your destruction.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2 O all ye that are pure in heart, lift up your heads and
receive the pleasing word of God, and feast upon his love; for ye may, if your
minds are firm, forever.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I shared my small testimony about how in reality, the
scriptures, especially the Book of Mormon, is not only the word of God, but the
LOVE of God. There is no better way for us to feel of His love and support than
to take time from our busy days and read from His holy words. The Spirit was so
strong in that moment and as we closed, I shared my experiences that I have had
in the past when I am having a rough time, and I read from the BOM and hear my
Heavenly Father telling me that everything is going to be okay. We ended with
the hymn Come Come Ye Saints and I just felt so much peace. This experience was
so needed and afterwards I took time to say a prayer of thanks, I am so
grateful that my Savior was able to turn my heart full of anxiety and
frustration to peace and love and hope. I know that we can all have these
experiences of we take time to say a little prayer, sing a hymn or read from
the scriptures.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Saturday night we had a great lesson with Elvin and his
friend Jose who we had met once before but couldn't get a hold of him! It was
such a miracle to see him again and have the opportunity to teach him.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sunday was beautiful as well! Elvin and Victor both came
to church and stayed for our Sunday school class where we talked about the gift
of the Holy Ghost! Exactly what we had taught both of them earlier that week!
Victor came with us after church to a member's home for a BBQ and it was good
for him to get to know other members and have friends!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Victor was just full of happiness all day! He loved
church and was just glowing and had the biggest smile! That night we were able
to meet with our cute friend Flor and afterwards we tried some people but they
didn't want to listen. I felt like we needed to leave the apartment complex we
were at and head down the hill. So we did. Then as we got to Annex Rd, we felt
promted to visit a referral that we only have been able to see once. Well we
walked up and all the lights were out. Just as we were about to wall away we
heard a voice in the backyard and as we walked around back, there was our
friend Jose! We taught him the Restoration in the dark of the night with our
iPads and it was incredible! The Spirit worked through each of us so perfectly
to teach to his needs and understanding! He is coming to church on Sunday!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love being a missionary. I hope that you all can feel
that. I treasure my calling at this time and the opportunity that I have to serve
in this unique way. It has meant everything to me and has completely changed my
life. My heart breaks thinking about having to leave soon. I'm sure that seeing
all of our faces again will make it bearable :)</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love each of you so much and feel so lucky to have such
amazing people in my life from before my mission and in my mission. I love my
Heavenly Father and Savior, Jesus Christ. I hope you can feel of their love for
you personally this week.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hola! This week was awesome!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tuesday we went to the temple with Alisa and had a lesson
with her on temple grounds. It was such a spiritual and sacred experience! We
went out for shakes afterwards for her birthday, it was such a great day with
her!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One of our investigators had their baby and she is so
cute! Lil Jacki was born on Mother's Day and looks like a little doll!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Had interviews with President Andersen and they were
great! Except right before we walked in some people messaged me on Facebook and told
me about the fires back home so when Sister Andersen and I sat down to talk and
she asked me how I was doing I started crying and told her I was scared that my
dog was going to die in the fire! She so sweetly told me that my dog would be
okay and I laughed through my tears, realizing how ridiculous I sounded, and
thanked her. It was crazy seeing papers everywhere with photos of giant fires
and the name if my hometown, San Marcos, in the title! I'm glad to hear that
they have been contained and that my sweet family provided a place of comfort
for people who were evacuated.</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had a crazy lil miracle on Friday! So Thursday night I
was going through the phone and saw a name I didn't recognize and asked an old
missionary who it was and found out she was being taught a lot before the
Elders stopped seeing her bc she was so busy! Well we decided to try and find
her Friday and we showed up at 7:30 AND.....no one was home, BUT her neighbor
is a less active part member family! So we went and had a beautiful lesson about
the temple with the parents and Hermana Reyes was talking about her son and how
she wishes he would have interest in God but he's NEVER home for us to try and
talk to and who walks in the door? Her son Alex! His friend's car broke down so
he came home early and we had such an amazing conversation with him! When we
asked the ward about him before, everyone told us good luck- but he was the one
asking us all of the questions and it was incredible how the gospel resolved
all of his concerns with God. We are hopefully seeing him soon!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Saturday we had a blast serving at the little pantry and
dropped off chocolate covered strawberries that we made for the Aguilar
family's party that night. We then headed off to a baptism in McMinneville of
someone that Hermana Schmit taught and it was such a beautiful baptism!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ericka was just glowing and she shared her testimony
before the meeting closed and it was the sweetest and most powerful thing I
have ever heard! I got to surprise Hna Idso who serves there and it was so good
to see her face and talk to her! I want to serve in that area, it's awesome!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yesterday we were bummed that no one we were teaching
could make it to church and then Hermano Elias walks in and introduces us to
his neighbor that he brought who wanted to meet with us and take the lessons!
Miracle! I LOVE when members are a part of the work and find people to bring
into the gospel- do you know who loves that more though? Heavenly Father and
Jesus Christ! This is what President Monson was talking about in October! We
need to all be working together in the work of The Lord!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have a challenge for all of you! So, I sadly come home
in 8 weeks and I invite each and everyone of you to invite someone to church
before I get back! Even if they decline, you succeeded in inviting!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Will you do it?? Will you invite a friend to church and
introduce them to the missionaries? I promise you will be extremely blessed and
you will experience so much joy as you stand shoulder to shoulder with your
Savior!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hola! This is going to be a quick one!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had a strange week, I think the adversary is really
working on us, especially as we get really close to the end!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had a really cool experience where we completely threw
our plans aside one day and decided to just follow the promptings from the
Spirit. We ended up downtime then we both felt like we should be in Vanderbilt
even though there are zero Hispanics there! Well we got off the buss at a
random stop in Vanderbilt and I felt like we just needed to walk up this hill,
turn, cross the street and wall back down on the other side. We had no idea why
but we did it and the second we crossed the street and started to walk back we
ran into one of our friends from the pantry who just walked out of a building
and were able to get to know her better and get her info! We walked away with
our minds blown! It is unreal how much the Spirit can guide you if you just
trust in Heavenly Father!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had some really good lessons with Victor and Elvin!
Found out our friend Lorena who had a baptismal date really isn't interested </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">anymore- bummer! But we met some new people who we are
excited to visit this week!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Saturday we had exchanges and Hermana Schmit went to a
baptism in McMinneville and I got to hang out with my bestie Hermana Knecht in
Madison! We just sat and talked in her apartment bc she was recovering from
food poisoning! It was so nice to have time to just talk, catch up and help one
another with our struggles.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sunday was a miracle! Our investigator Elvin, who had a
bad experience at church last month, came back! And he brought a friend! And
towards the end of sacrament I looked back and almost fell out of my seat when
I saw Adriana, Sergio, Itahy and little Melody! It was awesome! We had </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">5 amazing investigators at church!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was able to skype into a baptism for my friend Humberto
in Paducah!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was so awesome to be a part of it and it was soooo
amazing seeing all of my loved ones there! My heart kept as I talked to the
Pastors, McCradys and Luis! I am so excited that Humberto had enough faith to
change jobs so he could start coming to church and get baptized! He is
incredible and he was just glowing after his baptism!</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I had a beautiful dinner with the Donaldsons last night
and then we skyped our families! It was so rejuvenating to talk to the people I </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">love- to see their faces and hear their voices! I was so
thrilled to see my sweet mom and wish her a happy Mother's Day! She is the best
mom ever and I could never have asked for a better woman to raise me and be
apart of my life forever! It was so fun seeing lil Gwen as she made lil baby
noises and watching Connor and Porter tumbling around on their couch! I love my
family and I am so grateful I got to talk to all of them and feel their love!!!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hola!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This past week has been super random! We felt really
strongly Tuesday that we needed to leave West Nashville and go downtown and
ended up at the library! We met a really cool kid who's looking for a second
chance and the sweetest older woman who works as a security guard- keeping the
peace as she says! We went back the next day and has countless people approach
US and we had so many opportunities to testify of the restored gospel of Jesus
Christ through the prophet Joseph Smith! It's crazy how The Lord just directs
us where to go and puts people in our path! I will never ever ever believe in
coincidences ever again. EVERYTHING is orchestrated by God! Especially when we
are following the Spirit!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Another morning Hermana Schmit was having a hard time and
it was incredible how God used me as an instrument to help her feel better.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I hugged her that morning we just both cried and I
just felt like it wasn't me hugging her, but my Heavenly Father. The love that
Heavenly Father has for Hermana Schmit is tremendous and I know that He loves
each and everyone of us that much as well. I challenge all of you this week to
be sensitive to other's needs and struggles this week and let God use you as an
instrument to minister to them and help them feel His love. I felt guided to
tell her to get her stuff and get in the car and we went to Jamba Juice and it
was exactly what we both needed. It may seem like a small thing to go to Jamba
Juice but I know that it wasn't something that I thought of by myself, it came
from God and it really helped both of us.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had a lot of opportunities to teach the message of the
Restoration this week and the more that we taught it, the more it clicked and
the more I believed in it. I already knew it was true but my testimony of Jesus
Christ restoring His true church and His true covenants through the prophet
Joseph Smith has been strengthened. I honestly do not understand how anyone who
reads and believes in the Bible could look at the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-Day Saints and not realize that it Christ's true church and that it is
organized by God, not man.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Our organization, ordinances and religious practices all
come from the Bible and the way that Jesus Christ organized His church when He
was on the earth. God has always called prophets, all throughout the Bible,
he's called men old and young- so why would it be impossible for Him to call a
14 year old boy to be His prophet in our dispensation? I was talking to a guy
going to TSU at the library and after I shared this message with him I asked
him what he thought and he replied, "I don't see why God wouldn't do that,
I could never limit His power or His love for us." I wanted to hug him in
that moment. Why can't everyone see that the message of the Restoration us
testimony that God loves us! He loves us just like He loved the people in
ancient times, why would He stop talking to us through prophets and more
scripture? Why wouldn't He want to help us be more prepared as the time of His
Son's Second Coming reaches closer and closer?</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Brothers and sisters, I want you to not only know but
feel of my testimony of the restoration. I know, with all of my heart, that God
called a humble boy, Joseph Smith, to restore precious and important truths and
parts of the gospel of Jesus Christ so that we would have Christ's true church
in it's FULLNESS. He did this because He loves us and He wants nothing more
than to have us back in His arms someday. To you parents out there, what would
you do to have your children return to you if you were ever separated? Anything
and everything, right?</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That's what the Heavenly Father has done through
restoring these things and restoring His authority and power once again.
Through the restored gospel of Jesus Christ, we have the true and only path
back to our Heavenly Father AND to living with our families forever. I pray
that you all will understand your privileges as children of God and your
potential to live and be happy forever. The gospel is how receive ALL of
Heavenly Father's blessings for us in this life and beyond. Do not settle for
only part of that. Do not settle for anything but ALL of it. You and your
family are worth so much more. So so much more.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I love each and every one of you so much. You will never
understand how grateful I am for you and for your love and support. It has
given me the strength to keep going on and become the person that I have the
potential to be. I hope that my love and support has helped you in that same
way as well.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">God lives. Jesus Christ is our Savior. The Holy Spirit
will always testify of this truth. They love us. They love us more than we will
ever understand.</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well, this past week has been a bit slow but still full
of movies AND some crazy things happened- I felt like I was in a reality tv
show or a movie half the time!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here are some of the weird crazy things that happened:</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">-On Wednesday, we were riding the bus to an appointment
when a giant cargo truck took out the front right window of the bus! Luckily
our driver wasn't hurt! We sat on the bus for 15 minutes while a woman across
from us literally said "I need money! I'm definitely hurt! Call the
paramedics here!" She really did wait for the paramedics while all of the
other passengers all hopped on the next bus!</span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">-On Thursday we took the bus down to the
"states" and had an amazing lesson with a woman who we met through
our other investigator.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Afterwards we were trying to get to the other side of the
states and so we stopped and asked these guys in a mechanic shop for
directions.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They offered to give us a ride there but we said no because we
can't ride in the car alone with a man. Well as we were walking away they hollered
at us and asked if we could just jump in the back of their snazzed up Tennessee
pick up- we were like, "Holy smokes, of course!"</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'm not 100% sure it was the safest idea, but it was a
lot of fun! It saved us like 30 minutes of walking. I love kind strangers!</span></div>

Hermana Schmit stepped back really fast and yelled, "What is that??!"
I looked up and was terrified. Right above my head was a furry creature and for
the first 10 seconds I couldn't figure out what it was. Then it came to
me....it's a bat! There was a sleeping bat just chilling on some random
apartment door! Hermana Schmit freaked out on the stairwell as I took some

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now, here are some crazy spiritual miracles that
happened!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">-Saturday night we weren't sure where we were supposed to
go so we went and visited a guy we met a few weeks ago and then we went visit
our favorite less active, Olimpia! Well on the way to her house we were
crossing the street and let me give you some background really fast so you can
see how crazy this story is- we love all of our bus drivers and one of them
really loves us even though we never really talk to him- he always honks at us
when he drives by, we love it! Well last week the Bellevue Sisters were in his
bus and he mentioned to them that someday he wants one if the books that we
give away. So Friday night we had some extra time while waiting for a ride from
thr church so we sat in the chapel and I walked around and cleaned up all the
trash and put the hymn books away in their proper places. While cleaning I
found an English BOM and I was excited bc I wanted one to read through and mark
for the last part of my mission and have as a</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">keepsake- but at the same time, in the back of my mind I
thought about that bus driver. -so we were crossing the street Saturday night
around</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">8 and a bus pulled up and stopped- it was the awesome bus
driver!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First he looked at us and asked if we needed to get on,
we said no.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then I hurried and grabbed the Book of Mormon out of my
bag, held it up over my head and yelled, "Do you want this book?!" He
quickly replied, "Yes, I do!!" So I hurried and ran on and gave it to
him.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After he pulled away I looked at Hermana Schmit and we
couldn't believe how incredibly perfect the timing was for that- or that I had
a feeling all day that I would be giving that book to him. I love crazy
miracles like that!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">-Tuesday we were all invited, every missionary, to attend
the transfer meeting and it was incredible. We got to perform with the choir
and it was so pretty. Well, a man named Dan Clark spake, and at first I wasn't
too excited bc I was hoping an Apostle or someone was coming to speak. BUT, he
was incredible!! He is an inspirational speaker- he speaks all over the world
and he have such an amazing talk to us, specially catered to us missionaries. I
have never been so inspired on my mission before to be better and to work
harder. He shared some really special stories that I'll share when I come home.</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">-Tuesday after the meeting was so fun, getting to see all
of the missionaries and all of my friends that I haven't seen in forever!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well, we didn't have a ride home bc the Senior couple we
came with, the Donaldsons (We LOVE them), were staying late to give a
presentation to the missionaries who were leaving. So we asked the APs what to
do and they said they would figure it out. Well, they came back in and told us
they had the BEST news.....I was thinking we were getting a full-time car, but
it was much better than that! They told us to go home with the Donaldsons and
while we were waiting we could GO TO THE TEMPLE!!!!!!!!!!! Any missionary will
know just how excited we were. I almost passed out when they told me! It was
exactly what we both needed and such a special experience. I just felt so loved
by Heavenly Father while sitting in the temple. He is so kind and so aware of
our needs.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">-Wednesday night we were out with our lovely member
Hermana Santiago and after visiting our investigator she asked if we could just
stop by and see if a less active that she tries to visit is home. Her name is
Nohely and Hermana Santiago has been trying to visit her for over a year and
has never had any luck meeting her! Well guess who was outside cleaning as we
pulled up? Nohely! And her husband and her cute little boy JJ who's 2! We had a
blast getting to know them and I was in Heaven playing soccer with JJ! They
expressed how they don't know why they stopped coming really and they want to
come back to church!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hermana Santiago couldn't believe it! She was in a joyful
shock after we left! Miracles happen when members and missionaries work
together folks!</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had our second FHE for the start of the West Nash
Spanish group here and it was so awesome! We had 2 member families there- 12 of
them! Our ward mission leader and Olimpia who brought two of her friends who
are investigating the church! Hermano Juarez gave a short lesson on faith in
Jesus Christ and it was so powerful! We played charades afterwards and ate
sandwiches and it was a blast! It is so important to have ward activities where
our members can be together and feel unified AND so they can meet and befriend
the people investigating the church- so the investigators can feel like they
have a "church family."</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It has been raining with thunder and lightning since last
night! Like super loud and booming thunder that shakes my soul! I'm not usually
afraid of storms but this one has caused me to jump in fright quite a few times!
It's expected to keep pouring until tomorrow night at least! Flash floods here
we come! Good thing we live on a hill and are on the top floor!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I just want to bear my testimony that I know with all of
my heart that Jesus Christ is my Savior and Redeemer. I know that because of
Him, my future is bright and full of hope. I am grateful for the person my
Savior has helped me become and for the vision of my future self that I know I
can be someday because of Him. That is what the gospel of Jesus Christ is all
about- looking towards the future with hope and becoming the people we can be.
This true and real hope in our Savior is what brings us everlasting happiness.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also want to testify that what our families,
communities, work places and the world needs is Christ like love. If everyone
really took time to try and be like Him and love others for who they are and
where they are at in life, we would be free of so much heartache and negative
feelings like stress, anxiety, anger and bitterness. I feel like a hippie
saying this but I Frau believe that all we need is love- Christ like love. I
invite you to take time this week and evaluate how you treat others and react
in certain situations. Pray and mediate about how you can be more filled with
love and compassion for others.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I promise it will bring a greater light in your life. It
will bring you closer to Jesus Christ and an understanding of how much He loves
you personally. So regardless of how others treat you, just love them!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Because regardless of the things we do or say, our
Savior, Jesus Christ, and our Heavenly Father will always love us!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I leave this small testimony with you in the name of our
Redeemer, Jesus Christ, amen.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hello everyone!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I hope everyone had a beautiful Easter! I had the most
beautiful one yesterday in Columbia Tennessee! We were at the mission office
yesterday morning bright n early to meet some of the other missionaries in the
choir and drive over to Columbia in the mission's giant shuttle! It was fun, I
sat next to Sister Jarvis and she had a kazoo and a shaker and played Praise to
the Man and Nearer My God To</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thee- it was awesome and I couldn't believe how amazing
it sounded! At one point Elder Harris jumped in with his harmonica, it was
magical!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well my BFF Hermana Knecht was in the choir too so we got
to spend the whole day together which was such a blessing bc we've never served
by one another! We sang in two sacrament services and it was so beautiful.
There was such a reverent and sweet spirit during both services. We were able
to go to both wards as well and I fell in love with both of their Relief
Societies. There are so many amazing woman in the church and I am so grateful
for the blessing we have as sisters to have Relief Society. We ended our
evening at a Presbyterian church and that was such a neat experience. No one
from the Presbyterian church came- which I thought was so weird bc if they were
coming to perform at our church then we would definitely all be there to
support</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">them!- but we had many members there and other
missionaries with their investigators and it was lovely. During the middle of
the performance, I was completely overwhelmed with the Spirit, I was
overwhelmed with the love that my Savior has for me. The songs we had been singing
for weeks finally came to life for me and I just started weeping during one of
the organ pieces. I just sat reading the words to our last hymn, I Know That My
Redeemer Lives, and I just felt this cleansing power come over me, I felt my
Savior take all of my weaknesses and all of my bad feelings from that day and
make me new and make me stronger.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's a hard thing to describe and it was a very sacred
experience that I will never forget. Needless to say, I hope no one was
watching me during our last song because I just wept while trying to mouth the
words so it would kind of look like I was singing and not having a spiritual
breakthrough! Afterwards we had a really fun drive home with our Zone Leaders
and then the Assistants- it's so fun being with missionaries sometimes. It was
nice to truly feel a part of the mission and feel unified with other
missionaries.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This past week has been so so wonderful! We had so many
incredible lessons with some people that we really love! There's the Albarenga
family that is so awesome! There's about 4 adults living in the house and one
of their little boys and their friends from Honduras are always there as well!
Tuesday we read from 3 Nephi 11 and compared it all to the Bible and it was so
amazing to see them warm up and realize that the Book of Mormon is the word of
God too! It truly testifies of Jesus Christ and nothing more! People here in
the south are so afraid of anything that's not the Bible- even the Hispanics,
it's crazy! God has more for us people! He loves us SO much that He gave us
MORE scripture to help us better understand His true gospel. Anyways, Thursday
with the Albarengas was so fun bc they didn't know what an Easter egg hunt was
so we brought some eggs and taught them how to</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">play- they loved it! It was super fun. Their pastor was
coming by that night to study with them and we waited for a whole so we could
join.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Finally he called and said he wasn't coming so Jose
looked at us and said, "well, we have you here!" And so we shared a
beautiful Easter message and the Spirit was so strong. Their friends were there
too so we taught 7 people! They all were eating it up and they all had their
phones out to video us singing Yo Se Que Vive Mi SeƱor (I know that my Redeemer
lives) As we were leaving Jose was like, well are we going to see you tomorrow?
And we were like, YA! They invited us to his wife Maria's baby shower and we
had so much fun getting to know all of their church friends- they're the ones
who threw her the shower- when we left one of them asked us to come by her
house! We were like, "of course!" and got her info. I love this
family!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We also had a super fun lesson with Elvin on Saturday! It
was a perfect sunny day so we went and bought chalk and taught the Plan if
Salvation on the tennis court! He loved it and it helped him understand all of
it! I love using visuals because I am such a visual person myself, it really
helps people understand more when they have something to look at. Elvin ended
up going to church yesterday even though we weren't there, and he loved it!
He's the best!</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had a lot of really crazy experiences with following
the Spirit lately. We were knocking on former investigator's doors and I felt
like we needed to go to Walmart and after I told Hna Schmit and she thought
about it, she felt like we needed to too. So we went to Walmart and as we were
walking in the bus pulled up and I was like, "Uh Hna, I think we need to
get on the bus!" She was like, "Are you serious?!" So we prayed
about it and got on the bus! We met some really cool people that day and I feel
we did what we needed to, we just followed the Spirit and I know something
amazing will come out of that whether we see it soon or not.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cool story about a previous story I shared about
following the Spirit....remember when we got on the bus to look for an address
we knew didn't exist and ended up walking down the street and gave a random sad
woman a hug and met two teenage boys? Well, we went and visited the address
that the boys gave us and no one was home and just as we were about to leave, a
car pulled up. It was their mom Anna! She immediately invited us to come in
with her and shared a lot of what's been going on in their lives. She's a widow
and has one son, Angel, who has been going through a rough time. Her other son,
Miguel, is actually not her son, he's from North Carolina and had no where to
stay when he moved here so Anna took him in and calls him her son.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well we had an amazing visit with Anna and she basically
said she was an answer to her prayers for Angel and she wants us to visit him
and get him involved in our youth programs here. She told us to come back
Sunday to see both boys. Well, we text Miguel the next day to see what time we
could come by and he told us that Anna didn't want Angel involved in :/ we were
almost in tears and decided that we would fast on Saturday. Well, Saturday we
fasted that they would contact us or we would know what to do and went to
volunteer at the pantry again (which was awesome!) and 30 minutes before we
were going to break our fast, guess who text us?? Angel!!!!! He wanted to see
how we were doing and we ended up setting up a time to go see him tomorrow!
Fasting is so powerful! Miracles are real! I definitely do not fast enough!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also, remember that crying lady we met in the thrift
store a few weeks ago? We finally found her at home! Her name is Irma and she
is crazy but I love her! We had an incredible lesson about the a Restoration
and she was super receptive! We are going back Wednesday with a member!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anywho, those were our crazy amazing stories this week.
Sorry it was a lot! We are both staying here together one more transfer! I'm
not going to troll mountain, woohoo! We are super excited to see what Heavenly
Father has in store for us here!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I just want to share my testimony once again that I KNOW
Jesus Christ lives. I know with all of my heart that He has restored His true
gospel and church to the earth. I am so lucky to be a representative of Him and
His church. I love the gospel, it is the only thing that gives me peace and
hope in this life.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Even though Easter is over, I invite you to watch the
Because of Him video, it's under 3
minutes and is super powerful.</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Did all of you watch General Conference this past
weekend?? Of not, get onto LDS.org and watch it! If you did, get onto LDS.org
and watch it again! Member of the church or not, I promise there will be
something in there for you. There will be something that will help strengthen
you personally and strengthen your family. There will be something in there
that will be your Father in Heaven talking directly to you. You will get peace
and direction. I promise you because it has done that for me.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I was listening to the morning session of Saturday
this morning, I was overwhelmed with gratitude. I am so grateful that God still
speaks to us through His modern day prophets and apostles. The world is
becoming increasingly dangerous and corrupt. That is why we need, more than
ever, God's guidance and strength through the words of His prophet. I am
grateful for the hope that comes from the gospel of Jesus Christ. The hope that
of we do what is right and live in harmony with Christ's teachings, all will be
well.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am grateful for my mission, it has taught me so much
about myself, the Savior and my Heavenly Father. This week we have worked
really hard and have seen countless miracles. One night we took the bus down to
an address that didn't exist and as we wandered home, wondering why we were led
down there, we met a woman who just honestly needed a hug.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I knew The Lord had sent us to her to bring her comfort,
even if it was just for 5 minutes. A few more blocks down we met two teenage
boys. One of them looked at us and said he was confused about religion and
wanted us to teach him. We will be visiting him this week and he is coming to
church on Sunday. Just because we went to an address that didn't exist! We had
3 investigators come to Conference- all who we had just met within a week n a
half! One of them has a date to be baptized!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We taught Elvin for the first time on Friday night and
when we asked him that if he knew these things were true, would he be baptized?
He replied, "I know it's true! I just want to go to your church first and
see what it's like!" We were like ya please! So he came to conference
yesterday morning and loved it. The Lord loves this area and there are so many
people here that have been prepared for the gospel. I feel so lucky to truly be
an instrument in the Lord's hands.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We went back to see Walaa and her cute family from Iraq
this week and her aunt had passed away from a blood clot so her mother was very
upset and crying. We were able to translate to them once again that families
are forever and that they can be with their aunt and sister again. We sang God
Be With You Till We Meet Again and once again, the sweet spirit swelled within
each of our hearts. Walaa moved this weekend and we are going to cook her lunch
in her new place this week.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Our members here are amazing and truly understand that
it's not only us who needs to work hard to see the work grow. The Santiago
family explained to us that they need to be obedient and they need to do their
part if we are going to get a Spanish group started here. I was so blown away
by their humble hearts and their desire to work hard along our side. We are
having our first FHE group this Sunday and we are all very excited! Directly
afterwards I will be performing with the mission choir for our first Easter
performance. An Elder in our mission has arranged a beautiful arrangement of
hymns and songs for us to sing and we ran it all the way through and our
Mission Mom, Sister Andersen, sat watching with tears in her eyes. The spirit
is so strong as we sing of our Savior, Jesus Christ, and that He lives!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That is my testimony today. Our Savior lives. He loves
us. He will always be by our side.</span></div>

testimonies and I was freaking out because that's going to be me next zone
conference! How did time go by so fast?? Ah! After conference we went to our

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wednesday contained one of my favorite memories ever. We
went and had lunch with a family from Iraq that we met last week and it was
such a sweet experience. At first they weren't home so we were super bummed but
as we were driving away we saw them turn into their parking lot so we turned
around and met them. The grandma took us into the home and started cooking as
the mom, Walla, who we just met that day, and her cute son Ibrahim carried
groceries inside and refused to let us help!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Walla is so incredible. She told us about losing her
husband in her broken English and it hurt my heart to listen to her story. He
was killed during the war in Iraq and she found him covered in blood and dead
and just cried and cried. She told us this by pretending to hold him in her
arms and said the word blood as she moved her hand up and down her jacket and
said the word crying three times. She said "so much crying." We asked
her about where she thought he was now, according to her Muslim beliefs but she
didn't understand so she told us about how she sees him in her dreams
sometimes. She said he always appears so happy and sometimes he brings her gifts
in her dream and she always wakes up very happy and at peace. She then used her
phone to translate how sad she was that he's not here and that she misses him
so much. She had many offers for marriage but she turned them down because her
son is all she needs now and she moved here to America to give him a better
life. When she gave me the phone I was able to type in that we believe that
families are forever. I wrote that we believed that there was a way that she
could see her husband again and live with him and Ibrahim forever. After it
translated I watched her face as she read it and she had the biggest smile on
her face and she was overcome with a feeling of peace. I just felt the spirit
so sweetly testify to her that it was true- that she could see her husband
again.</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was such an unforgettable moment. We had an amazing
feast of food from Iraq and they tried teaching is some Arabic words which I
have already forgotten! Except for goodbye- it sounds something like
mouse-Hama...if I remember correctly...but they use the back of their throat to
pronounce things and I'm not very good at doing that! Before we left we gave
them a Book of Mormon in Arabic and they said they would read from it. Walla
told us that her mom is our grandma, she is our sister, Ibrahim is our little
brother and that her apartment is our home. I love that family so much! We are
going back on Wednesday to make pancakes for them!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thursday was a treat! I got to meet my distant cousin
Henry Livingston that I didn't even know existed before two weeks ago! What a
great kid! He's super fun to talk to! He is going to make a great missionary! I
hope we don't go to war with Russia and he makes it to Moscow! If not, he'll be
a great missionary anywhere!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Friday was so fun! During lunch the Bellevue Sisters
called us to tell us that a woman in their ward was planning on giving all of
us haircuts that day- for free! Greatest
news ever! I haven't had my hair cut since Madison- a year ago! My ends would
literally just fall off when I blow dry my hair because they were so dead!
She cut a lot of my hair off and it feels amazing! It was so fun being with the
other Sisters and getting to know them! We went to Walmart to get something for
an investigator and I felt prompted to buy chocolate rainbow chip M&Ms Keebler
cookies....Well we were leaving and there was a couple selling newspapers
outside and their little golden haired son was sitting on a blanket in the
grass and I felt like i needed to give him the cookies. His face LIT UP and he
shouted, "I love M&Ms!!!" The joy on his face was priceless-
worth far more than the $2 that the cookies cost. We shared a Book of Mormon with his mother and it was a
really special experience. That night we had an amazing lesson with a woman we
met in Walmart our first weekend here! She is such an incredible person and
hopefully I'll have more stories about her in the future! The night ended with cotton candy slushies,
peach rings and driving the Sisters back home, another special treat!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Saturday was the tricky day. I woke up feeling okay, I
had great studies and was super excited to write a new blog post that I had
received revelation for. I should have known something was up when I said the
prayer during companion study and just cried the whole time. I think Heavenly Father
was preparing us for what was to come. We went to our sweet less active
Olimpia's place to cook food with her from Guatemala that morning. It was great
learning how to make soup and salsa and rice- and it was so great to get to
know Olimpia better.....but something was up. Hna Schmit and I both felt like
something had sucked ALL of the energy out of us. Like I could barely look at
Olimpia and shake my head to agree with what she was saying.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We went back to the apartment afterwards to plan and just
sunk into our couches. I just felt lifeless and like there was no hope in
anything. We finally forced ourselves to go to the library to write our blogs
but I couldn't concentrate and only got a little way through it. We finally texted our assistants here and asked for blessings.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Before we went to meet them we went to stop at Alisa's
work- a cute Italian restaurant and she fed us gelato- the best pistachio
gelato I have ever had- and gave us food to take home. We just wanted to go and
give her a hug and she made us feel so much better. It was then that I realized
that the people here don't really need ME, I need them! I love everyone on my
mission and they have all meant so much to me. We received beautiful blessings
from the Elders and we felt like we had new life! We went to the woman's
conference with Olimpia and it was so amazing to be with her there. Because of
work, she hasn't been to church in 6 years. She was raised in the church in
Guatemala. She just was beaming the entire time we were there and it made me
realize how lucky I am to be a member of the church. I felt the spirit so so
much even though I couldn't understand 100% of it in Spanish. At the end of it
I just wanted to shout to every woman that we saw that we are daughters of God!
Do you understand what that means??? We are so lucky to be so loved by a Father
in Heaven and have so much potential.</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sunday was incredible because our ward leaders,
especially our Bishop, are super excited for the work right now! We had several
great meetings and are so pumped! We got permission from the Stake President and our
mission President to start an Family Home Evening group here in West Nashville that will hopefully turn
into a sacrament group- wa-hoo! We have been finding so many people who have
been prepared and we know there are so many great things to come here!</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One thing I realized from talking to a lot of people this
week that have children in other countries still is that Heavenly Father misses
us so much. If these parents from Honduras or Guatemala or Mexico miss their
children so much, then how much does our Heavenly Father who isn't even here
physically on the earth with us- miss us? A LOT. Do we miss Him like He misses
us? What are we doing to feel closer to Him?</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When we pray, do we truly understand that we are talking
to our Father? I know I can be better at that. I miss my Heavenly Father so
much and I know I don't talk to Him enough. I invite you all to join me this
week and work in taking to Him more and letting Him know what's going on, what
we need, what we love and how we are doing.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The gospel is so true! I know Joseph Smith is a prophet
of God. I know that Christ has restored His true church and true gospel on the
earth in OUR day and that is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I
am proud to wear my Savior's name and His church on my chest everyday!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My Spanish is getting a lot better since I've come to
this area! I am so grateful! I love the Spanish language and I hope to be
fluent someday! West Nash is still a blast! We didn't have the car last week so
we had a lot of fun adventures! We used our bus passes as much as possible and
I think I finally have the whole bus thing down now! I am such a fan of public
transportation! Except when the bus smells REALLY bad! We made so many new
friends on the bus and at the bus stops. A lot of the drivers know us now and
are so sweet! One of the drivers saw us running to get to the bus in time and
he sat and stopped traffic for a minute or toe until we got to him- so
grateful! We've definitely had a lot of fun workouts while running to catch the
bus.</span><br />

Sergio and Adriana. They were nervous to meet with us at first because they
LOVED the Elders but now they love us too! They have two little girls who have
stolen our hearts! Itahy is 9 and Melody is 2 and she acts like it! We have visited
with Adriana a lot and had fun helping her clean one day and then doing our
nails! Another night we watched "Good Things to Come in Mormon" messages and ate
cookies with our Abuelita (little grandma) that Adriana made for us! She came to our Relief
Society birthday event and we were so grateful she was there. We had the RS
leaders get up and testify of the blessing it is to be a part of the largest
woman's organization in the world and what a blessing it is to our families.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My good friend Sergio from my last area in Hopkinsville
got baptized on Saturday! I desperately tried to find a ride to it but had no
luck. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was so excited for him but I had a pretty rough time
with the fact that I couldn't be there. I had a few breakdowns Saturday but
prayer really helped me get through it. As I was crying in the library
bathroom, I told Heavenly Father that there better be a reason why I didn't
make it to Hoptown that day! We were planning on trying to make some new
friends in the thrift stores so I told Him that we better meet someone amazing
if I wasn't going to be with Sergio! I am such a brat! But Heavenly Father
still loves me and after moping around in a few thrift stores we met the most
amazing woman. Her name is Maribela and the Elders had met with her before but
didn't keep a record of her! She was so so sweet and invited us to come and see
her on Wednesday. We both have such a good feeling about her and I can't wait
to see her again!</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hermana Schmit and I both feel and believe that we were
placed in this area together for Alisa. Alisa is one of the reasons I was meant
to serve a mission. Hermana Schmit and I both were inactive for a large part of
our adult lives and we both have so much compassion and understanding for
Alisa. She has been through SO much in her life and she told us that every time
she thinks about where she needs to be in life or what is wrong, she feels
something telling her "You need to go back to your church." She knows
that she's not where she's mean to be In life. It is so incredible to be able
to share my own personal testimony of the change that our Savior can bring into
our lives if we let Him. It is amazing that I can also share how hard it is to
come back to church but that it is worth it. Nothing is worth more than the
peace that we have as we come back to the food. We watched Jeffrey R Hollands
talk titled Laboring in the Vineyard about those who came in the fifth hour and
I have never felt the spirit so strongly in my mission. That is the testimony
that I want to share this week. Our Savior is not concerned about the time that
we come back- He is more concerned that we just come to Him. We can never be
too far gone. As Elder Holland says, "...however late you think you are,
however many chances you think you have missed, however many mistakes you feel
you have made or talents you think you don't have, or however far from home and
family and God you feel you have traveled, I testify that you have not traveled
beyond the reach of divine love. It is not possible for you to sink lower than
the infinite light of Christ's Atonement shines." I am living proof of
that. I testify that Christ can pull us out of the deepest holes and the most
sinking waters. He pulls us out and lifts us up to places we never could have
imagined. I never in my wildest dreams ever thought I would be serving a
mission or that I would ever be found worthy to serve after the life I had
lived.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Because of my Savior I am here. My mission is the
greatest blessing I have ever experienced in this mortal life. It has changed
me forever. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It has helped me to see what my true potential is as a
daughter of God.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I know that we are all children of a Father in Heaven. We
have divine worth. Nothing we do can ever change that. Nothing we do will ever
change the love that God has for us. Nothing we do will ever be too much for
our Savior to take from us. We will always be loved.</span></div>

<br />
We have a lot of work to do because to be honest.......I have no idea what the
Elders have been doing here :) There is one family that they were teaching that
are amazing so we are so grateful for that! The wife and daughter are so
incredible and are so in tune with the spirit. <br />
<br />
We have been SO busy contacting these past few days! We have been tracking on
the streets, in stores and knocking on some doors! Guess how many new
investigators we have found in 5 days? 13! West Nashville is a dream come true!
Saturday night we just went to Publix, Walmart and Ross and met so many cool
people! Tons of the Hispanics here are from Honduras- it's crazy! They all have
been offering to feed us so I'm going to have to be really actually doing my
morning work outs to stay in shape!<br />
<br />
We want to try working towards creating a Spanish group that would meet at the
Green Hills building since Haywood is so far from our area! The members in our
area and our ward mission leader is on board so now we just need to talk to our
other leaders first and see what they think.<br />
<br />
We had a really crazy miracle with a less active English sister in our area!
Elder Byington called and gave us the name of a less active who lives with
Hispanics and said he would give us her address another day. Well Saturday we
were contacting and we met a man named Robert waiting for his ride to work and
talked to him for a minute. Right before he left he told us to go talk to his
girlfriend who speaks English and pointed us to his apartment. We went and
knocked and it was the less active Alisa! She was so excited to see us and we
are seeing her tomorrow! Miracle! <br />
<br />
Guess what I forgot to tell you last week? Sergio is getting baptized!! He's
our friend that we've been teaching for a few months now! Super cool guy and
super prepared for the gospel!<span style="background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0);"> Two
weeks ago we were in the middle of going over 3 Nephi 27 with him and he
started talking about the true gospel of Jesus Christ and what we must do to
return to our Father in Heaven. The Spirit was so strong as he explained to us
his understanding of what he must do. We then watched the Mormon Message
"Road to Demascus" and he felt the Spirit so strong that he was
almost in tears. I got iPad out and pulled up the calender and gave it to him
to pick out the day he wanted to be baptized. He chose <a href="x-apple-data-detectors://0">March 22nd</a> which we later found out
is his birthday! One thing I learned from this experience was that the Book of
Mormon is so powerful. I know it was 3 Nephi 27 that truly helped him make this
decision for himself and feel closer to Christ. I love that book!</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hopefully I can find a ride to be there Saturday for
his baptism!! Say a lil prayer for me!<br />
<br />
End of story is that I love this area and even when I get super tired and don't
know if I can keep contacting, every time I make the decision to keep pressing
on, Heavenly Father puts someone amazing in our path. I've been working in
changing some habits to be completely obedient and I have felt so much more
confident in the work and in myself since I've been better! If you read my most
recent blog for the mission, you would know that I haven't always been the most
obedient person but I'm grateful that the mission has taught me to be grateful
for the commandments and guidelines that Heavenly Father has so lovingly given
me. I love being obedient! (Something I never dreamed myself saying!) </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So our area is humongous! We cover pretty much the whole
west side of Nashville! Part of our area is downtown- woohoo! We haven't
ventured too far away from our apartment except for today. We don't have the
car this week so we got bus passes! We woke up at 5:45 this morning to make it
to our mission choir practice by 9! It was so worth it though!</span></div>

enough to be in it now! We are performing in different places Easter weekend-
including a Catholic Church! Our prelude song is from the Lamb of God musical
and it made me so happy! I love this area! Also, my aunt Anne emailed me that
her nephew goes to Vanderbilt so I got permission from President to meet up
with my distant cousin sometime and talk about mission life since he's leaving
to go to Moscow in a few months! Such a small world- I love it!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dearest family and friends,</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel like I'm going to rip my hair out because I have so
much to do! BECAUSE.....we are being white washed! We got the call Saturday
night that we're both leaving! Ah! So much to do to prepare the area to be
handed over! Too many people that we love that we don't want to fall through
the cracks once we leave! Hermana Stricklin is going to Shelbyville Tn and I am
going to....Nashville!!! I am SO excited!! I will be with Hermana Schmidt and
we're actually white washing Providencia B which has been the Spanish Elder's
area up until now! It will be a lot of work but so much fun! I am excited for
this change but I will really miss the people here in Hopkinsville. Goodbyes
are so so hard!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One cool story I want to share and then I have to go! There
is a family who are recent converts and when I first met them I loved them but
they were a lil rough around the edges- which makes them so fun! Anyways, we
had dinner with them last night and I was brought to tears listening to the
father talk to us about the things that he has come to feel and know in these
last few weeks. The transformation I have seen in this man in just 4 months is
indescribable. He is the truest example I have ever seen of the gospel truly
changing people. He is so humble and so ready to lean more to God's
understanding now, rather than his own. I could never put into words what I
have seen happen in this man. I know that the gospel truly helps us become the
best we can be. It has the power to change our lives and truly better
ourselves.</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hola! This is going to be short this week!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I had a wonderful interview with President Andersen this
past week and that same day WE GOT IPADS!!!! It's crazy that the First
Presidency truly trusts our mission to not only be on Facebook but to also have
iPads now! I'm excited to think of ways I can enhance the work with an iPad! We
used it last night to show a Bible video to our friend Mark (who is doing
amazing!) and the spirit was so strong as we watched the life of our Savior.
It's such a blessing to have iPads, we missionaries just need to be careful
that they don't become distractions!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This week it's really hit be how important it is that God
restored the authority or power to act in His name- the priesthood. Someone we
were teaching compared themselves to us- because he was sharing his testimony
with another guy- and it was amazing but at the same time I realized that there
is a difference between us and him talking about Christ. We have been set apart
at this time by the literal power and authority to preach His true gospel. I
need to be more true to that privilege and my calling at this time.</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had a huge storm last night so we've been snowed in
all day! It's super weird. I didn't even bothered getting dressed and have been
in my pjs all day!</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Two funny stories that happened last night: we were
leaving a member's home with an investigator after having a lesson with them.
It was nighttime and I looked down at what I thought was a stick and was about
to kick it when I realized it was.... A deer leg! I immediately let out a
squeek and ran away! Then we were walking to our car and there was ANOTHER one
in the grass- hoof and all! Our investigator laughed as I danced around
freaking out. What the heck? Did a werewolf come through or something? Or the
chupacabra??</span></div>

<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Another night we were at our investigator's house and
they have cockroaches sometimes. Most houses do here- cockroaches are a huge
problem here! They never usually bother me but this one night as we were
reading from the Book of Mormon I looked down and I saw one on my hand! I have
an insane fear of spiders so I immediately assumed it was a spider and jumped
up freaking out dancing around Jesus' living room screaming "Ā”araƱa!"
He just laughed his head off and I was so embarrassed when I realized it was a
cockroach. Then I felt bad because I never want people to feel bad for having
bug problems! Such is the life of a missionary!</span></div>
<div class="MsoPlainText" style="text-align: center;">

have to teach others of His restored gospel- a gospel based upon love.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hola mi familia!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This has been a really really good week! Hermana Stricklin
and I thought of ways to be better missionaries the week before and as we pushed
ourselves to be better at little things, we saw a lot more miracles and we were
a lot happier! We truly are happier when we follow all of God's commandments
and push ourselves to be better!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First I want to tell you about my friend Karen. She is related
to one of our investigators and she is 8 years old. We go to her house every
Monday night to have an FHE with her and her little siblings and every time we
walk in they are literally jumping with joy and hugging the bajeebers out of
us! In fact, her little brother Jose is always headbutting me in in the stomach
and knocking the wind out of me out of love! So Karen always offers to say the
opening prayer and I die every time because she is just so cute. She comes from
a different church background so when she prays, she is VERY animated! Last
week was the best because she literally jumped up and down in circles with her
hands up in the air and then she ran to us and put her hands on our heads and
thanked God for sending such good Sisters her way and she anointed us with
God's love! She's the best. Her mom never would sit in the room with us when we
were over but little by little she has been warming up to us and she finally
comes and sits down and listens and tells them to pay attention to us! We're
hoping to get them to church soon!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tuesday was a great day. We decided to have a
"themed" day and our theme was "The District 1." Anyone who
served a mission recently and watched Preach my Gospel training videos knows
exactly what I'm talking about! That day we had anther fantastic lesson with
our friend Mark! We taught the Plan of Salvation and it went really well! We
had a member with us that went into some deep stuff but we did our best to lead
the discussion back to the simple truths of the gospel. I love that as
missionaries we have only been set apart to teach simple truths, we are not
here to teach EVERYTHING! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This District 1 outfit also transformed into a Slytherin outfit from Harry Potter.</span></div>
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had a funny miracle happen! We had met these men a month
ago at Walmart who were super friendly and nice and took a pamphlet from us but
when we asked for their address they said they would give it to us but they had
no idea exactly what it was! (This is VERY common with the people that just
come here to work!) Well last Tuesday we went to a former investigator's house
to see if they were home but they weren't :/ but I felt really impressed that
there was SOMEONE there we had to talk to so we just kept knocking on people's
doors and either they weren't home or didn't want to talk to us. Finally we
knocked on one last door and when it opened I saw our friend from Walmart! I
immediately was like "WHOOOAAAA!" and told him that we finally found
him- he couldn't hide from us! We all started laughing and Romberro let us in.
We had a really funny lesson with him and his roommates. His roommate Noe is such
a clown. After we had explained what the Book of Mormon was and gave them a
copy, we asked Noe if he would read from it and his reply was that he couldn't
see without his glasses. I thought, okay, I understand because I can't see
anything far away without mine! BUT then he continued to say that every time he
tries to read he cries because he doesn't have a wife to help him- wait what??
Then we were like well you're friend can read to you and his reply was "He
just cries too when he tries to read!" They were too much! They were super
friendly and Rromberro said he would read from the Book of Mormon this week so
we're going back to see how it went!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Another cool miracle happened that same night!! We were
driving towards a potential investigator's house and I saw this man walking on
the side of the road and I immediately felt impressed to stop and talk to him.
Well being the stubborn and scared person that I am I was like wellllll we need
to see this other person and that man could have a gun or something! So I
promised that if the other people weren't home that we would turn around and
look for that man. Well we got to the people's house and they were super
awkward and wouldn't let us in so we went back and I couldn't find the guy on
the street but I felt like we should check the corner market. The second we
walked in he was standing right there about to walk out! I was just honest with
him and told him that we saw him walking and felt like God wanted us to talk to
him! He could have easily gotten creeped out but he was just like "Whoa,
that's so cool!" We had a really good talk with him about God and talked
about the Book of Mormon and he said he wanted to read from one! We left him
with a chapter to read and he said that he wants to come to church sometime! I
hope that we'll see Lonzo again really soon in church!!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wednesday we went out with some of our members to do their
visiting teaching. They took us to some of the less active sisters that we have
never met and it was a wonderful day! One of the sisters lives in a super super
pretty old southern house and I could not stop drooling over it while we were
there! She said it's a lot of work keeping it clean so we offered to come by
and help her and we get to go back this week! I am so excited! I love serving
others!!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had a great FHE with our Spanish group. We had the kids
help us build a "tent" out of blankets and chairs and we sat inside
it and read from Mosiah where King Benjamin is speaking to everyone while they
have their tents faced towards the temple. We read about service and the kids
helped us think of ways that we can serve people more! It was really fun.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One more great thing about Wednesday- we had another
"theme" day and the them was our moms! We dressed up like our moms
and I acted like mine all day, it was so fun! I had my hair in a sockbun for
the first time in my life! We love our moms!!!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had a huge storm Thursday night so we had to go in early
that night and it was crazy! At one point when we were 5 minutes from our house
I couldn't even see a foot in front of us because buckets and buckets of rain
were coming down! We had a tornado warning but nothing happened! Just lots of
rain and wind!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Friday night we had our Spanish movie night and it was so
great! We watched the Testaments and our investigator Jesus came along with
some of the Hispanic members! Jesus has a baptismal date and so we're trying to
get him more involved with the members and the movie night was perfect for
that! During the movie I kept saying a little prayer in my heart that Jesus
would feel the spirit. At the end of the movie when Christ comes, Jesus had
tears streaming down his face. The SECOND the movie ended he jumped up and said
the movie was good and stormed out of the room! I was stunned because I was
getting ready to bear testimony of the Book of Mormon and was not expecting
that! After he got himself cleaned up in the bathroom he came back in because
Hermana Whitson had a surprise birthday cake for Hermana Stricklin :) The
members were so good at making Jesus feel welcome and loved. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Surprise birthday cake with Jesus</span></div>
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Saturday was Hermana Stricklin's birthday!!! I had a whole
day planned but wouldn't tell her what we were doing :) Thank goodness for
facebook because I set up our appointments with our favorite people for that
day without her knowing ;) I made these super cheesy sunglasses covered in
paper so she couldn't see where we were going and I drove in circles and took
weird shortcuts so she couldn't guess where she was going by direction! We had
a surprise Nacho Libre themed lunch with the Ryder family and it was so fun!
Then we went to see one of our investigators who wasn't home :/ but we were
walking by their neighbor's house and had a really cool conversation with him!
He was defending our church to his friend that was there and said the best
things about the LDS faith! He then asked for one of our "bibles"
(Book of Mormon) and he said that he was really excited to start reading it!
Miracle! Then the blindfold went back on and we went to our friend Tiffany's
place which she had decorated all cute and she had cheesecake waiting for us :)
She's so sweet and not only got Hna Stricklin a lil present but got me
something too and a balloon so I would feel special too :) We then had a
surprise dinner with Sister Fletcher- a non-active sister here- and she took us
out to eat and it was so fun! She is the sweetest thing ever and is a joy to be
with! We finished the night at the church for the English movie night- they
watched a really horrible movie called the Book of Mormon that wasn't made by
the church. It just covered the first two books of Nephi. It was hilarious
because they had changed or added some random things into the story of Nephi!
Afterwards a member turned around and said, "The book was better!" I
died laughing! Our friend Mike who we had handed over to the Elders to teach
was there and he loved it! He said that he better start reading the book to
find out what happens next! We ended the night feeling bloated from all the
food and cake and somehow manged to eat some See's chocolates that someone had
sent her! It was a special and fun day! </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sunday was a MIRACLE!!! We had been trying forever to get
Jesus and Sergio to meet each other because we thought it would help them feel
more comfortable in church and they finally both showed up on the same Sunday!
At first, after sacrament, Jesus said he couldn't stay for classes because his
throat hurt but we talked him into staying for at least 10 more minutes. Once
we got into class and started talking about the Priesthood he didn't leave! And
after Sunday School, Sergio, who usually skips out 3rd hour, talked Jesus into
staying and they both went and loved it! We had an FHE with the two of them
later that night in the Smith's home and it was so great! Sister Smith is so
cute and she made lemon bars and cookies for us! We watched "To this end
was I born" and talked about how grateful we were for Jesus Christ and His
sufferings and sacrifices for us. They both opened up more to us and to each
other and we got to know them better! </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Buenos dias mis amigos!!!!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I had quite the week! Sorry, but this will be a somewhat
long one today!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First of all, remember that guy Mark that we met in that
little store last week? He's amazing! We went with Sister McKee on Tuesday to
go see him and had such a great visit! We discussed the restoration of the full
Gospel of Jesus Christ through the prophet Joseph Smith and it was so
wonderful! Mark compared this event to a lot of things that happened in the
Bible and realized that if God truly is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow-
then of course He would call a prophet in our day! He has been reading the Book
of Mormon and loving it! He has such an incredible understanding of the Bible
and so he loves how the Book of Mormon just flows with it! They truly do
support one another and they truly are both testimonies of Jesus Christ! We had
a lesson with him over the phone last night and he is just such a cool guy! We
are learning SO much from him as well! He works at the donut factory here in
town and invited us to come and stop by sometime :) I love donuts. I love
sharing the gospel with people like Mark!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Our Relief Society has a book club and guess what book they
read for the month of February?? The Power of the Everyday Missionary by
Clayton Christensen of course! We were honored when we were asked by our
dearest Sister Fears to lead the discussion during their meeting Tuesday night!
We didn't have the BEST turn out because of the weather but it was incredible!
We started off talking about the book but ended up talking about our ward and
how we can better help the members that we have and how we can be better
member-missionaries here- it was amazing! The sisters had a lot of really good
questions and they came up with a lot of things that our ward can be doing to
be better. This book is SO powerful! It not only inspires us to be more
involved in the work and gives us examples of how but we also can receive
revelation for the specific area that we live in and what we need to be better
at or change! I encourage all of you to read it! There was a little picture
that I saw on Facebook that said "If you're too busy to be praying and
reading your scriptures, then you are much busier than God intended for
you to be." I would like to change that to..."If you are too busy to
share the gospel in some way or strengthen the members of your ward, then you
are much busier than God ever intended for you to be!" Brothers and
Sisters, now is the time to open your mouths! Now is the time to do what you
can to build up the Kingdom of God! Get to work!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had the incredible blessing to go and attend the temple
on Wednesday. We were so excited that morning- it was more exciting than
Disneyland! It was exactly what I needed. We only go every 6 months as
missionaries and it always comes just in time! I love the power that the temple
has to rejuvenate me and give me the strength to keep going! I went to the
temple with a lot of questions for Heavenly Father and I found a lot of
answers. I am so grateful for the ability that we have to receive answers
through prayer in our day to day lives and also in the temple. I am so grateful
that we have the opportunity here on earth to make covenants with God- just
like in the times of Moses. I am so grateful for the peace and the love that we
feel as we come to the Lord's house. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had some really exciting plans for Valentine's Day but I
had to ruin it all by getting the stomach flu! Blah. I have not been that sick
in YEARS! Yo queria estar muerto! We were supposed to have dinner with the cute
Kinley family and then make crafts with the girls but instead they came over
and dropped off some herbal remedies for me and some soup for Hermana
Stricklin- they are the nicest! We watched every church movie we had in our
apartment! I was out all of friday- most of Saturday and a large chunk of
yesterday. I am finally starting to feel better. I tried eating lunch yesterday
and that was a mistake! Toast and jello it is for the next day or so! Sprite
and gingerale have been my best friends all weekend. Thank goodness for saltine
crackers too! Thank goodness we have facebook and telephones so we were still
able to share the gospel in some way this weekend!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We were able to teach 3 lessons in different member's homes
this week and it was so incredible. Lessons in member's homes are the greatest
things ever because the Spirit is already there! I hope you member's realize
how lucky you are to have the Spirit dwell in your home. We have a friend Irma
from Peru that is friends with members in our ward and when we had dinner with
all of them on Saturday night it just felt so natural as we talked about the
gospel, I loved it! We almost didn't go because I looked like a joke and wanted
to die but once we knew Irma was going to be there it didn't matter! The Lord
took care of me and I felt a lot better during the time that we were there! We
had a dinner of white rice and rotisserie chicken- thank goodness because it
was actually something I could eat! Afterwards we watched some Mormon Messages
and were finally able to share a Book of Mormon with her. It was crazy because
that's not something we planned on doing at all but the Spirit kept telling me
that we could not leave until we shared a BOM with her. She had SO many
questions and I know it's what we needed to share with her that night. I
love this work!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We have some really exciting appointments this week that I
can't wait to share with you next Monday! Keep Mark in your prayers-he is so
ready for the gospel!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I know that this gospel is what brings us true happiness, I
know it is what unites our families not just in this life, but in the
eternities. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hola!!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First I'm going to share my stupid selfish miracle.....we
were at Krogers getting groceries and I was staring at the organic drink
section as I always do because I would much rather drink my calories than eat
them :) Well, I was staring at the kombucha selection wishing that I had $5 to
blow on one when I looked down and there was a box that said "Take one-
they're free!" And do you know what it was?? Kombucha! Verbena Rose
flavored- yum! As I looked in the box my heart dropped because it was
empty...but wait...there was one hiding in the back left corner! I know that
Heavenly Father loves me :) haha...</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This week we had exchanges which is when we trade companions
and area for one day- so Hermana Stricklin went to Clarksville with cute Sister
Gibson and Sister J. Johnson came to Hopkinsville for the day! It was a day
full of MIRACLES!!!! We ended up finding two new people who are interested in
the gospel and have appointments to go back and see them this week. One of them
is a woman named Maria who's from Mexico and her husband is from there as well-
from Villahermosa!! I freaked out because it made me miss my brother SO much!
It was great that Trevor served his mission there because I was able to talk to her about
the ruins there which led into a conversation about the ancient Indians that
lived there- which are her ancestors- which then led into the account of the
"white man" that appeared to them. It was so neat to explain that we
had a record of that! The Book of Mormon! We opened up 3 Nephi 11 with her and
she said she was so excited to read it. I love the Book of Mormon for so many
reasons! Later that day we were just stopping by our friend Khori's store to
say hi before we had dinner and we met a man named Mark who said that he had
seen the church's commercials in the 80's and ordered a Book of Mormon but they
never sent him one! He was so excited when we handed him one right in that
second! He said he was going to read from it and we're going over tomorrow to
visit him! We had a fun dinner with Patriarch Fears-he is such a character! He
asked us to share Books of Mormon with both of our waitresses and as we talked
about what the book is the other member there Brother Bodkin chimed in and
added his testimony- it was so cool! So we made two MORE friends who were super
excited to read the Book of Mormon! Miracles everywhere! After dinner we
stopped by a recent converts house who has been having a hard time putting some
things behind her to get to the temple and we read from Alma 36 together and
the spirit was SOOO strong. She had a daughter pass away when she was just a
toddler and we all could feel her presence there as we read and talked about
the power of Jesus Christ. It was one of the most beautiful experiences that I
will never forget. I am so grateful that through the gospel of Jesus Christ and
because the authority of God and temples have been restored to the earth, we
truly can see and live with those we love again after this life. I love how the
gospel connects us to those that have passed on.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Last but NOT least, that night we went by to see our friend
Jesus. He had called us earlier that day because he was sad. When we went over
he let us know what was going on- he had to push some people out of his life to
do what he knew he needed to do. I immediately thought.....is this going where
I think it is going......and it was :) We read from 2 Nephi 31 about Christ
being baptized and our need to follow His example and afterwards the Spirit so
strongly impressed me to ask him about baptism. Mind you- I was with Sister
Johnson who does not speak spanish so she had no idea what was going on! I
invited him to baptism and he said yes! He said that God has guided him a lot
this past week to making this decision and he knows it's what he needs to do.
We set a date for his birthday in April! It was such an incredible evening! I
am so excited for Jesus- he has been meeting with the missionaries since last
summer and had a baptismal date at one point but didn't make it. When I
mentioned that the adversary would be working really hard on him from making it
to the baptismal font he said that he knew. He talked about how the adversary
had done that a few months ago when he originally planned on getting baptized.
I was so amazed by Jesus' faith and by his ability to recognize the influence
of God and the influence of the adversary in his life. He is such a great guy.
We're also teaching all of his roommates and when one of them, Fermine, found
out about his baptism at our next visit, he said that he would be getting baptized
some day too! I love being a missionary!!! </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am so grateful to be here. When I first opened my mission
call, I was like....Tennessee Nashville Spanish Speaking?? But I have learned
that it is not about the place but the people! I love the people SOOO much!!!
Sharing the gospel is something that brings us SO much joy and so many
blessings! I hope you take time this week to share your testimony with someone
and help them come closer to their home with their Heavenly Father!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also, if any of you have any friends or family that I didn't
know previously to the mission- feel free to give me their names on Facebook
and I can try getting to know them and sharing the gospel with them in some
way! I love online referrals :)</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I hope you all have a magical Disney kind of week!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Buenas Tardes! </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Hopkinsville is currently covered
in ice and a tid bit of snow! Since we're missionaries and we never know what's
going on with the weather, we got to a member's house last night for dinner and
ended up getting iced in! It was super weird but SUPER fun! We got to sleep
over at the Kinley's home and they made us feel so welcome and so loved. We
made cookies and played Apples to Apples and in the morning we had family
scriptures study and prayer and then made breakfast! The roads were still
pretty bad but we wanted to try and get out before everything started melting.
We ended up leaving around 10 and made it by going 20 mph down the windy icy
snowy country roads and once we got out of that the roads weren't TOO bad. They
don't have equipment to clear the roads here and so the town kind of shuts down
whenever things like this happen. Nothing like Salt Lake! I miss Salt Lake City
because they always have the roads being cleared- not here!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anywho, besides our last minute surprise fun sleepover, we
had a pretty good week. We learned and grew A LOT. At least I did! </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So we met this woman named Heather last week, I think I
emailed about her already. She had one of her baby twins pass away and we
taught the most beautiful lesson on Tuesday! We thought it was just going to be
Heather but it ended up being the father of her twins and her brother's fiance.
We taught about the plan of salvation- where we came from, why we're here and
what happens after death. The spirit was SO sweet the entire time we were
there. All of them had loved ones that recently passed away and so it was
really neat to teach about the Spirit World and how it's a place of rest and
learning until we're resurrected. I don't think I've ever taught in such a
natural and powerful way. It was an amazing experience to truly feel like I was
being used as an instrument in God's hands to share these precious truths with
His children. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We also met with a former investigator that the Hermanas who
were here before us AND our ward mission leader told us to check up on. Well he
was out of town for a while and then he said he was busy but last Monday night
we had just gotten a text from our other friend saying that she couldn't meet
with us so we were a little bummed. Then 25 minutes later this man text us
asking if we could meet up with him. Heavenly Father is SO involved in this
work! We sat and talked to him about some personal trials he's going through
and it was amazing to just sit and read scriptures together and uplift one
another. While we were there, in a Starbucks, it was so incredible to see the
Spirit speaking to him and giving him so much comfort and so much insight
through our visit. I too learned a lot during that visit. We met with him
another night there and made some new friends at Starbucks while waiting for
him! Starbucks is the place to be! We met a man there who LOVED chess and he
mentioned that he loved it because his sister taught him how to play. I felt
like there was more to his sister and their relationship and so when I asked
about her he opened up and tol us about how she had passed away from cancer several
years ago. I was so humbled to hear the little part that he had shared about
his journey. I love my calling at this time because whether people recognize it
or not, their souls sense who we are and so many people immediately open up to
us and share with us so many personal experiences and things. We truly are
servants of our Savior and as a missionary I feel this increased love and
concern for everyone I meet and once they feel that they are so open. I love
that I get to see people as our Heavenly Father does right now and that I get
to so strongly feel the love that He has for each and every one of them. This
is something I hope I can continue to feel after I am released from this
calling.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Everyone that we are teaching right now is going through the
craziest things! From torn ligaments, their dogs biting people, their children
being in the hospital to their spouses wanting a divorce. With every single
thing that these people are going through, it amazes me that the restored
gospel of Jesus Christ has the power to bring all of them peace, strength and
HOPE through all of these individual trials. Some of these things are from
other's agency and God's will but I can't help but also feel that the adversary
is hard at work. Satan is working so hard on those that are so close to the
truth but I don't think he realizes that he's giving our Father in Heaven more
opportunities to show these people that He is there and that He loves
them. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I had several experiences this week where I was brought to
my knees crying. I just felt so weak and like such a bad person or missionary!
I am so grateful for these moments though because they brought me to a place
where I was humbled. I have been praying and praying my whole mission to help
me be more humble because i am so prideful sometimes! Heavenly Father really
helped me this week take a good look at who I am, find things I can work on and
then built me up. Heavenly Father will never tear us down without building us
back up. I hope this is making some kind of sense! Within one of these
experiences I had some bitter feelings towards someone and I just prayed and
prayed to let them go, give them to my Savior, and see this person for their
goodness. I was reading about Christ's crucifixion that morning and I realized
that He was SO misunderstood! Here I was throwing myself a pity party because I
felt so misunderstood and then I was completely humbled as I thought about how
Christ reacted in that situation. Here he is performing miracles, loving others
and doing the Father's will and these people are persecuting Him and seeing Him
as anything but what He truly is. These people crucified Him and while He was
hanging there He asked Heavenly Father to forgive them "because they know
not what they do." Wow. He truly understood that people are unaware of how
misconstrued their perceptions can be and He wasn't angry with them or bitter,
He just loved them for where they were at. I want to be that way- to love
people for where they are at in life and for who they can become. After this experience
that only lasted an hour- of having these bitter feelings- I truly understood
what it means to have Christ purify our hearts. Within an hour Christ replaced
those bitter feelings with feelings of love and understanding. He truly
purified my heart from the poisonous emotions. I am so grateful for Him.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Brothers and Sisters, the power of the Atonement is so real.
I know that Jesus Christ is our Savior and I know that He loves each and every
one of us so purely. He loves us despite our weaknesses and He gives us the
ability to become better and better everyday. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This week has been full of tender mercies for me! First of
all, I finally had a subscription for antibiotics called in so my bronchitis is
finally getting better! We had some incredible conversations with some new
convert and less active families that we love so so much. One family said that
they were kind of questioning whether the church was still true but last Sunday
Hermana Stricklin and I had the pleasure of speaking about the Restoration
during Sacrament meeting and he said he felt the Spirit confirm to him again
that this is Christ's true church. He also had another experience in Sunday
School with God answering a question he had. It is SO amazing to watch people
grow and learn to love this gospel and know of it's truth. Another family that
I LOVE LOVE LOVE is also doing really well. My favorite friend here who hasn't
been to church in years and has felt that God doesn't exist has been praying
this past week and I don't know if she realizes it quite yet but God has been
answering her prayers and showing her that He is there and that He loves her.
Best thing ever to witness! </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had a fun little exchange on Wednesday where Hermana
Stricklin went to Clarksville for the night and Sister Gibson came to our area
and it was so fun! We had a great Spanish FHE that night and our new member
here, Lilia, gave a beautiful lesson about enduring hard things. She referenced
the talk in the January Ensign, Finding Nemo and then she played clips from the
movie UP. I don't know if I should have walked out of the room or not at that
point because technically we can't watch anything but church movies but I just
considered it a tender mercy and balled like a baby through the ten minute
clip. I LOVE the example in that movie of the couple enduring some really hard
things, but in the end when Carl is sitting by himself, feeling SO down on
himself and he begins to look through his wife's old adventure book. He gets
really sad as he thinks about how he was never able to take her on her
adventure to South America but he finds something so sweet. He finds that she
had put pictures of their life together behind the page that says "Stuff
I'm going to do" and said thank you for the adventure that they had
together. It's then that he realized that she didn't need that trip to South
America and even though they suffered through some really hard trials together,
they had one another and that was an adventure enough for Ellie. I love this
message that teaches us to truly count our blessings and that Heavenly Father
places people or things in our lives to overcome hard times. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After FHE Sister Gibson and I were hunting down a member
that we didn't know and wanted to meet and as we found the address and knocked
on all the doors, we realized no one was home, so we began to leave. Well, as I
was backing up another car pulled into the driveway up to the house next to the
one we were knocking. The woman in the car got out to see if we needed help and
she told us that the person we were looking for wasn't there anymore. We began
talking about her a little bit and she told us that her and her husband just
got married in September! Immediately I felt prompted to ask her about vows-
way random. But as we talked about them I asked about the "Till Death Do
You Part" and how she would feel if their love could last longer than
that. She cutely replied that it would be awesome because her husband is her
best friend. We were able to testify to her that God has restored that power to
seal her and her husband for eternity, not just for this life. The Spirit was
so strong and we asked them to pray about that and to ponder about what that
would really mean to them and if it's something they would want. We left them
with our phone number and I'm hoping to hear from them soon. This experience
was such a powerful testimony to me that the Lord will truly put His words into
our mouths as we seek to share His gospel. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sister Gibson and I stayed up till like 1 in the morning
just talking about anything and everything. It was so fun! I am so grateful for
the opportunity to have exchanges and get to know other Sisters in the mission
and feel of their sweet spirit.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had an awesome dinner with a member and her husband who
are expecting a baby. We had a lovely dinner and afterwards they brought a game
for us to play- they LOVE games! So as we played Clue, we were able to better
understand this husband's concerns about the church and as we talked more and
more about it we realized his concerns were more from not knowing the truth. So
it was so neat to be able to tell him what we really believe and watch his
heart and mind grow more and more open to our beliefs. We had a wonderful visit
and he made some comments about he hopes that we can come back- miracle!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We had a cute 80 year old come out with us on exchanges and
that was so fun- I love when members want to come out with us! We also had a
successful Spanish movie night- our member brought her friend and it was so
fun! </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Our Spanish investigators are doing so well too! We had a
really good lesson yesterday with two roommates who had so many good questions
and so many good insights about what the true gospel should teach! Also, our
friend Sergio is doing so well! He is so amazing! He has still been reading in
True to the Faith and the Book of Mormon! And he understands the commandments
so well and is willing to live them! "The law of chastity is going to be
hard, but I can do it!" or "I can't drink coffee anymore? Okay!"
We feel him getting closer and closer to baptism every week so keep him in your
prayers!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Welp, all in all, I had a marvelous week and I LOVE doing
this work! Something I have felt this week is that there is nothing else that
has the power to help me feel of God's love daily and truly inspire me to
accept my weaknesses and want to change as does the Atonement of Jesus Christ.
It's real.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I hope you can feel that this week.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This week has been strange because I seemed to have caught
the monstrous Bronchitis and I've been kind of out of it. Spending your nights
awake hacking up stuff is not helpful as a missionary! It's hard to feel
productive at all when you have to sleep in or go home early because your body
hates you. I feel like the worst missionary ever! It's been getting a little
better everyday so hopefully I'll be back to my normal self soon!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My One Year Anniversary was on Thursday and it was super
weird but super great! We had a Zone Conference that day and had some truly
amazing and inspirational trainings by President and Sister Andersen, the
Assistants and some other missionaries. It helped me gain more of a passion for
this work- kind of like gave me a second wind! That night we had homemade pizza
from scratch with the Kinley's and then we had an incredible scripture study
with them in the Book of Mormon and Brother Kinley pointed out some really
beautiful things that I have never noticed before. Afterwards we went out to
their field and Brother Kinley started a fire and shot my old skirt and shirt
into the fire with some kind of fire gun to mark my one year! I love watching
people blow stuff up- awesome day!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hermana Stricklin and I gave talks about the Restoration on
Sunday and we were pretty pleased with ourselves since we had like 4 days
notice and NO time to write talks! I'm grateful for the Spirit and how it
directed us and helped us know what to say. I have such a testimony of the
Restoration of the gospel, priesthood authority and true church of Jesus Christ
through the prophet Joseph Smith. I am so grateful for this message of love and
hope!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We were able to read from the Book of Mormon a lot with our

is. It causes us to have a change of heart and it causes us to have better and
greater desires to come closer to our Heavenly Father and our home with Him.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sometimes I get really homesick for my home with Heavenly
Father but I am so so grateful for the gospel of Jesus Christ that helps me
stay on the straight and narrow path back to Him. I am grateful for my Savior
Jesus Christ and His Atonement that allows me to be made clean and worthy to
return to my Father again.</span></div>
