Another Transfer

Hey I'm getting transferred

Update for this week:
Well it's gonna be crazy and I'm gonna miss my first area, but I'm excited to see the rest of the mission :)

This week we've been making a LOT of visits to all sorts of people. We were visiting this one family and there were like 3 cops outside their apartment building and we were like "hello" and they were like "where do you live" and we were like "North Bend" and they were like "oh who are you visiting then?" And we were like "this one" and they were like "oh ok you're good, that's not the one we're trying to contact" and we were like πŸ˜³πŸ˜…πŸ˜…
It was definitely odd for this area, ngl πŸ˜‚

Scripture of the week:
Jacob 4:6
"Wherefore, we search the prophets, and we have many revelations and the spirit of prophecy; and having all these witnesses we obtain a hope, and our faith becometh unshaken, insomuch that we truly can command in the name of Jesus and the very trees obey us, or the mountains, or the waves of the sea."

Because we're able to know truth by the Holy Ghost we can KNOW for ourselves when someone is speaking truth. Because of that, when we hear the prophets and apostles and missionaries and anybody else share their witness of Jesus Christ with us, we can truly KNOW whether they're speaking truth and thus we can gain a knowledge, where our "faith becomes unshaken".

Fun Fact:
I'm going to Klahanie, wherever that is πŸ€” it sounds like somewhere in Hawaii



I painted a Book of Mormon to represent what it is to me: There are times in your life where you'll feel as though your back is against the red sea, with Pharoah's army in front of you. But by the spirit of revelation (@the Holy Ghost aka the dove) you will have faith to turn and walk into the sea, and although there are turbulent waters on either side of you, you will walk on dry ground. The Book of Mormon to me is one of the tools given to us to gain that faith and revelation to walk into the sea and if we stay faithful and true to God, no matter what happens we can always walk on dry ground.

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 KlebingΓΆt'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...
