3.7 see y'all next week πŸ˜¬πŸ˜…πŸ₯³

This week is going to be a good week πŸ₯³πŸ‘

Update for this week:
Lol practically everything fell through this week, but it was good anyways :))

On Monday I got to see my cousin who recently moved up her to Washington! It was super happy, and I got to meet her husband and cute little baby too, which was so fun! We met at a park and it was pretty cold and rainy, but it was fun haha :))

We found some really cool people this week who were super interested :)
On Wednesday we had a lesson set up with a member, but then he ended up being stuck in traffic, so we decided to go tracting. We parked in this parking lot that I didn't know existed, and there was this guy getting something out of his car and we started talking to him! His name was Joshua and we had a super good conversation with him! We taught him the whole restoration and gave him a Book of Mormon and it was just super good :)) he was so excited to go to church and he was even asking about the dress code and everything, it was awesome!

Scripture of the week:
Alma 27:17-18
"Now the joy of Ammon was so great even that he was full; yea, he was swallowed up in the joy of his God, even to the exhausting of his strength; and he fell again to the earth.
Now was not this exceeding joy? Behold, this is joy which none receiveth save it be the truly penitent and humble seeker of happiness."

I aspire to be like Ammon, so full of joy I faint one day πŸ˜‚
But seriously though, when we have the Spirit with us and allow it to fill us, there's no reason we CAN'T have exceeding joy :))

Fun Fact:
We found this cute little alcove of nature called the Cove, it's a sorta sketchy boat launch place (sketchy because it's covered in driftwood) and it is SO pretty :)) we discovered it when we were chasing a sunset for like 10 minutes one day lol

Bonus fun fact (shoutout to my friend Adalie πŸ˜‰): there’s an AdΓ©lie penguin species

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...
