update 8/29

Hello Everyone!

We had a pretty good week! We had zone conference on Thursday, and stake conference on Saturday and Sunday. Elder and Sister Foster and Elder and Sister Kosta came and spoke. I loved having the opportunity to have special training from these servants of the Lord. One of the things President Cooper mentioned is that the Book of Mormon has the power to connect people to Heaven. I know this is true. The training focused on the importance of member missionary work. Once we have felt God's love, we have a responsibility to share it so that others can too, no matter what stage we are in our lives, name tag or not. I'm excited to apply the things I learned!

Have a great week!

Update 8/22/16

Hello Everyone!

This week was pretty good. Alberto came to church! We have been focusing on teaching him in a way that he will understand, so we have been using a lot of object lessons and examples. He's getting really excited for his baptism. 

Favorite scipture of the week: Helaman 10:12. Nephi is finally headed home after a struggle with an unrepentant people. On his way, the voice of the Lord blessed him with increased power and understanding, and then commanded him to go and preach repentance. He stops in his tracks and goes back to follow the command of the Lord. When we immediately obey, even when it's hard or we think we need a break, we are blessed.

Pictures: People in Florida like to power wash their sidewalks- and sometimes they get artistic about it.

Have a fantastic week!

I've been transferred to...

Hello Everyone!

Transfers happened this week! I am now serving in Tampa 2! My companion's name is Sister Felt. It's been a good week! We have 2 malls in the area, so we got to go contact in them a few times. That was a lot of fun. We met a lot of people who want to learn and build their faith! I'm working on learning my way around the area and getting into the teaching groove with a new companion. It'll be a great transfer!

Have a great week!

6 Months!

Hello Everyone!

Not much to report this week. I hit my 6 month mark! It's crazy how fast missions fly by. We had a zone training meeting this week on teaching repentance. One of my favorite lines in one of the missionary manuals is "Repentance is not just the backup plan. Repentance is the plan of happiness for every person." The Savior loves us, and He wants us to experience joy. We can do so as we strive to be a little more like Him every day.

Have a great week!
