1 Nephi 11:17. read it. fav scripture of the week.

Hi Friends!

So, I have news... I'm leaving Terrace Heights :( Gotta say goodbye to Sister Fleming and the place that is, to be honest, more home than Salem. Well, I know how to get around better here haha. BUT I'm going to a place called Ephrata. I know nothing about it except that there's a Walmart and "if you sneeze, you'll miss it" according to Angela. I'll be with Sister Jensen, and have no info about her either, so stay tuned for next week :)

We saw miracle after miracle this week, thank goodness, 'cause I hadn't felt like much was coming from #FeedtheFifty, especially after hearing others' stories. My favorite was something that happened Tuesday. I loved it because it took time to culminate into a miracle, and it showed how the Lord really is directing each and every instance, more easily if we choose to heed the promptings of the Spirit. So, that morning we went, like usual, to the church for exercise. A man showed up to do some sort of maintenance, so we left and decided that we still wanted to run, so we'd just run outside(in the freezing cold). We ran up through the neighborhood next to the church and just randomly(so we thought) zigzagged down the streets. Later we both mentioned to each other that while we'd been running we'd thought that we should tract up there, so we did! and our LAST house was a man who had previously read the Book of Mormon(at least some of it) and told us there was nothing in it that he didn't agree with. We were floored, and soaring at the same time. And all because some man came to work on the church early in the morning. Thank goodness for him. 

We got to go to a baptism in Goldendale on Saturday! It was incredible. If we'd stayed on the freeway a little longer, I probably could've gotten us to the my parents house haha. 

Adam, my nephew, sent me his Flat Stanley this week to take around, he is an honorary missionary and everyone has loved him. :) 

So much else happened, but I have 12 tons of other things to do before I'm transferred... farewell!

Much Love

"We are willing to knock on strangers doors" -the theme of missionary work

Other potential subject lines from this week: "Let your grammar nazi go nuts over that!" -Sister Walker. Yup, she loves me.  "I love us". Guys, Sister Walker and I are like a comedic duo. It's so much fun. It. Has. Been. A week. We've had quite a bit of snow too, which cause some issues with commuting places.. and seeing how our two areas are full of small towns that are in the hills, its caused a kink in our plans (thumbs up). BUT, all is well because leading up to the catastrophic "snowmageddon" as they are calling it, were a ton of Miracles! Alrighty y'all take a seat, strap in, grab some popcorn. I got lots to share.  So, Monday night, it snowed a bunch, so we did District Council over FB video chat, which was fun lol, there was a lag, so the hymn singing was WAY OFF, but it was good. We had interviews and since we had to do that over FB too, I FB chatted with Sister Jackman, man I love that lady. She's so much like my...

I remember laughing, but I don't remember why..

Okay, yes I'm a terrible person, I sent you all those pictures with absolutely no explanation. So get comfortable, here's two weeks worth... EXPLANATION OF LAST WEEKS PICTURES: -SUPER bomb ice cream at East Wind Drive-In in Cascade Locks(Oregon, yep its still weird).. and that was the small -delish tacos from a taco truck(I ate tongue!) -McKenzie's skunk Bumper. he is their pet, and she snuggles with him. They have 2 skunks, 3 possums, a couple raccoons, and a couple deer, as well as 3 dogs, and a couple cats... -Car numero uno is Guapo(our car), car numero dos is Gordo(The Dalles elders car). We had to trade for a couple of days and they took Guapo up to Yakima for some work.. its good to have him home -oh, and Sister Walker eating a cinnamon roll(that McKenzie's dad made) faster than humanly possible Now for this week :) Zone Conference on Tuesday, which was phenomenal, like usual. We have another mission meeting in a few weeks and all the departing mission...

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...
