I can Only Imagine

2/20/2023

Heyyyy family!

Another week of Miracles have gone by in the mission field. I have never experienced this much joy in my life than I am experiencing right now! It is more Joy then a baseball game or skiing, it is the pure true Joy of Jesus Christ and helping others. It is hard to explain how it really feels but it is an overwhelming amazing feeling. I was able to experience that this week and the past month with our family we have been teaching! With all the hardships and trials they have been facing Tamaris, Lexie and Brianna were able to make a Covenant with our Heavenly Father this last weekend!! I am really so blessed and have so much love for this family! 

Other than that the work is really moving forward! There are so many prepared people that are ready for the Restored Gospel and I have a strong testimony of that.

Jacob 2:8
"And it supposeth me that they have come up hither to hear the pleasing word of God, yea, the word which healeth the wounded soul."

I am so grateful for the Scriptures in my life and the healing it has brought in my life. Keep reading and praying daily! It the best thing ever! Love you all

Hey Family & Friends!

This week is totally a week I will remember forever. I really keep looking at the experiences I have been able to have on my mission so far and I am truly blessed with everything the Lord has given me and blessed me and my companions with. 

About 1 month ago we knocked a door and it was a lady named Tamaris and her 3 daughters. There has been so much joy in teaching this family. (Just imagine Gru and the 3 girls from the Despicable Me. That is what this family is exactly like.) The girls are just a bundle of Joy, they are 10, 8 and 4. I remember the first time we talked with them at their door step when she told us that her husband passed away, and teaching and testifying of Eternal Families and the Book of Mormon. I have loved this whole process of teaching them!! They have been struggling just a little bit but are working towards Baptism this weekend so pray for Tamaris, Lexie & Brianna. 🙏 

This week I also had an amazing Zone Conference, love growing and having a stronger testimony everyday!
Love you all so much, I am so grateful for all of you in my life. Have a great week! ❤️

Mosiah 2:41
41 And moreover, I would desire that ye should consider on the blessed and happy state of those that keep the commandments of God. For behold, they are blessed in all things, both temporal and spiritual; and if they hold out faithful to the end they are received into heaven, that thereby they may dwell with God in a state of never-ending happiness. O remember, remember that these things are true; for the Lord God hath spoken it.
