"We're not going, we're going with the Mormons"

Hello All!!!
GUESS WHO CAME TO CHURCH YESTERDAY!
Amanda, Alexa, Ally, and Abby(you can count Emma too, but it wasn't her decision, she goes where Mom carries her lol)

We had an incredible week chock FULL of sighting of God's Hand.

real quick-like:
-Zone Conference of lessons, the spirit, and ways to improve
-EXCHANGES(we had an amazing lesson with Amanda which was when she committed to come to church and to pray specifically about certain things)
-POWERFUL lesson with Amanda AND Brad(who was previously not interested). he now has a a bunch of questions, is reading the book of Mormon and he and Amanda are both preparing to be baptized on January 8th!!!
-wonderfully sweet lesson with Joy whom I already love so much and is so eager to learn more about the Father she doesn't know
-Interviews with President and Sister Jackman, boy they are so smart
-Amanda wasn't going to come to Church, but then she realized that she had prayed the night before to receive an answer of some sort at church and she cant get the answer there if she doesn't go, so they all came and are coming back next week. During sacrament meeting, she kept looking over when she heard something she felt was meant for her. It was a lot. :) god loves us.

Basically, our Father in Heaven knows and loves us each individually, personally, and powerfully. Do yourself a favor, open your eyes to the part He plays in your life each day. you'll be amazed.

Week 2

Heyo! So this email is prolly gonna be just as harebrained as the last one 'cause I'm still working out the kinks of timing and putting my thoughts in order. So, this is my last Pday in the MTC.. we leave at 230AM next Tuesday, I don't know what that'll mean for emails but there will be another eventually, no worries. Couple things, actually a bunch of things: 1: Sister Cannell drinks chocolate milk WITH ICE. I know weird, but I've decided to be the bigger person and look past it(that's a joke, I love her, it's hard not being able to put a little bit of sarcasm in my emails) 2: Anyone and everyone, please feel free to write/email me, I love hearing about like anything right now haha 3: Role playing is a total blessing, Sister Cannell is pretty shy and it's really helped her come out of her shell a bunch plus it helps to keep me from rambling like I do. 4: Speaking of my rambling, we watched this Elder Holland talk about opening your mou...

"chews the right" -Jaydens baptism gift from his mom(taffy)

I can't even begin to explain this week. We were in Yakima more than Stevenson this week. We came up for exchanges, which were super fun and then spent the night with the sisters and had a big southern zones meeting on Thursday(and fam! I saw Jonathan Lingard!! It was weird calling him Elder.. he's all grown up with a missionary purpose haha can't handle it) It was a party, and THEN we had to come up Saturday because it started snowing Saturday night and its supposed to keep going off and on through Friday night, so Sister Jackman had us come up Saturday and we've been here since then, following the Sisters around and me mentally preparing for my DEATH (crying inside.. but strangely calm on the surface). BUT, on the days that we were in Stevenson, it was wonderful. We had a final lesson with Jayden and got his jumpsuit for his baptism, he was so excited its the cutest thing. Then on Friday, after we planned, we did a lot of saying goodbye and THEN, on Saturday, JAYD...

We're the ukeladies!

*takes deep breath* Okay so there is a lot to talk about from this week and like 15 minutes to type this out because I am not good at time management and no I haven't learned that on my mission yet, obviously, thank goodness I still have like 7 1/2 months to go so I can learn how to fix that flaw lol. Any way, major events from the week: Zone Conference was superb! We drove up to Wenatchee for it and it was like an hour drive each way and so we ended up driving 109 miles that day, which is A LOT for us, but its cool it was totally worth it. Sister Jackman talked about earnestly building connections to Heaven(and specifically with each member of the Godhead, which I thought was super cool) we've been able to use that concept over the last couple of days as we've taught and because of the idea that attending church is what builds your connection with the Holy Ghost, WALLS CAME TO CHURCH YESTERDAY!!!!! I literally teared up and could not stop beaming. When Sister Jensen and...
