Week 12: A Bulleted List of Awesome

 Доброе утро 🇷🇺

(Good morning in Russian 😎😂)

Update for this week (some cool things):
•We knocked 280 doors this week tracting and it was AWESOME
•We taught the WHOLE Restoration on the doorstep and I recited the first vision and it was AWESOME
•We had a youth mini MTC activity MTC Wednesday and it was AWESOME
•I got my retainer fixed and now its AWESOME (again XD)
•We tracted into a few members on purpose and a few on accident; one of the new move-in is coming from HERRIMAN UTAH, FROM THE SAME STAKE AS THE ONE WE USED TO LIVE IN!!!!! (And that's awesome XD)

Scripture of the week:
Isaiah 53:4-5
       "Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
"But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed"

This scripture is talking about Jesus Christ and it makes me so so grateful for Him. He paid the price and suffered the cost so we could have peace and healing. If we turn to Him, He will fill our hearts with His love and will help us change and grow and improve into our greatest potential.

Quotes this week:
•"My feet are in the video!" "But mine aren't so its fine!" -Sister Manning and Sister Briggs
•"Don't look at naughty stuff on facebook" -Sister Wilkerson
•(Sister Manning dumped a box of produce onto the counter) "Pears and avocados can get bruised..." "that's why I'm being careful" 😂
•"What's a turf war?" -Sister Manning

Fun Fact:
There are SO MANY teslas up here, like I have never gone a day without seeing AT LEAST one. I saw like 10 in one day once.

P.S. this week we saw a ton of military vehicles on the freeway but we dont know why they're up here 🤷‍♀️
P.P.S. I got my retainer fixed this week 😎


What we woke up to this morning...

What is that big bright light? It's been so long... 😂

Hey it's me and Sister Manning

Happy Easter :)) Update for this week: A lot of fun stuff happened this week! On Wednesday we were at the church waiting for Teresa and her family because we had a lesson set up, but they ended up being late... so one of the counselors in the Bishopric recruited us to talk to the 14-15 yo boys about missionary work   it was awesome, and they had really good questions! Missionary work is a good time :) On Thursday, we took a member of the Samoan ward tracting with us because she's in the MTC! It was super fun, and she gave us a ton of tips for finding Polynesian people  Friday was Zone Conference and it was AMAZING. I learned a lot, especially from the discussion we had about General Conference. I LOVE Elder Uchtdorf's talk, President Nelson's talk, Elder Eyring's talk, and Elder Klebingöt's talk. It was super amazing because it helped me learn how to be a better disciple of Jesus Christ. What's something you all learned from General Conference? I also had to bea...

Finn Hill is awesome and also odd XD Update for this week: Holy cow I LOVE my new companions!!!! They are both so cool and such good missionaries :) Sister Misi is an AMAZING teacher and so good at asking questions and also very artistic. Sister Beckstead is such a good example and is just so sweet and I'm sad she's gonna leave to her original assignment on the 21st because this trio life is just the best ever :( but she will do amazing things in Brazil too! This week we've been SUPER busy, I've been getting to know members and learning names and stuff, and we've had some lessons, tried to find people to teach, and also met a member who has a sword collection, and also antique/replica firearms, and bows and arrows (longbow and a recurve, none of them modern). I held one of his swords  Scripture of the week: 2 Nephi 2:28 "And now... I would that ye should look to the great Mediator, and hearken unto his great commandments; and be faithful unto his words, and cho...
