☆HAPPY NEW YEAR☆

here's this last weeks update!

monday:
CHRISTMAS ! super fun! Hung out with the zone, went to see christmas lights and opened presents and talked to my amazing fam! Christmas was definitely very different this year but it was one I will always remember, taking the time to really focus on the meaning of christmas, our savior Jesus Christ and serving others really does make a big difference and I was able to experience that as a missionary during this christmas season and it is one I'll definitely never forget!

tuesday:
honestly I completely forgot what I did this day...and I don't have access to pmg to check... BUT transfer boards came out so here's an update! ->

AREA: yall I'm back in the Hunter West Stake in West Valley City. The first area I served on my mission. They couldn't keep me out for long!! This was exciting since I already served here before so I knew the area and some of the people pretty good already

COMP: Sister Evans! I love her! Sister evans was our roommate last transfer and now I get to follow up train her! She's originally from Ukraine and has been living in the US for almost 4 years. We were so excited to be together but I am sad to be leaving Sister lamphere as well but she's going to do great things in the magna east stake!

HOUSE: still in the same sussy bacca apartment 

TRANSPORT: bikes.yup.help. 

wednesday:
On Wednesday I went around town saying goodbye to some of my besties that I've made while serving in the magna east stake for 3 transfers. Our recent convert jameson and his family took us out to eat at this sushi place and it was really good so that was fun! 

thursday:
 I helped Sister lamphere pack up her things because although she was staying in the area she was moving to these hecka nice apartments that were WAYYY closer to the area theman before. After all that jazz we went out in our area and made lots of door contacts + met some awesome members and got some referalls! 

friday: 
Zone conference! then we went to cfa for lunch and had a cute little zone picnic. After that we knocked on more doors, we also got in contact with some friends we're teaching and were able to have a very spontaneous lessons and found a new person! YAY! 

saturday:
in the morning we tried to get in contact with some more of our friends and were able to have a lesson with Rayshell and her  daughter Karma. Her other daughter Emily was also there and wants to learn more. #newperson! In the afternoon we did some service for a wonderful lady and helped her put away her Christmas decorations. In the evening we were able to meet some more of our friends! 

sunday:
went to 3 wards and gave a talk in one of them. All the members here are super nice, and some invited us over for dinner! We had a lesson with Laressa and she is so cute and so smart. She already knows so much about the gospel and wants to be baptized! We had to be home by 7 for safety reasons so we had a book of mormon devotional on zoom with President and Sister Spencer. We read the book of mormon as a mission and every time one of us read a chapter we put an emoji in the chat box, by the end, the whole mission read the book of mormon about 4 times which was very cool ! sunday was also my 5 months as a missionary! 

Spiritual moment:
Mormon 9:21 
Behold, I say unto you that whoso believeth in Christ, doubting nothing, whatsoever he shall ask the Father in the name of Christ it shall be granted him; and this promise is unto all, even unto the ends of the earth.

Hey y'all! Happy late Thanksgiving!

Its truly been such a blessing!  Thanksgiving was a blast and something you should know is that my mission president, president Watson is very competitive and very athletic. He's done 5 iron man's. He crazy. SO on thanksgiving morning all the missionaries ran a 5k with President and his family. It was so cold, I've never ran in colder weather, but it was so fun!

A Week Of Many Lasts ♡

HELLLLOOO FRIENDS! on a scale of 1-10 on how crazy this past week was I would say a 5. so that's pretty good. No car accidents this week. Hallelujah Ahhh but this week so many bittersweet things happened so let's begin!  So first. We went on pros exchanges! Keep in mind that Sister Reidhead was still recovering from her surgery and wasn't with us for a few days but even though Sister Faimanu is only in her first transfer she was totally willing to split for a bit to do exchanges. She's awesome! I went with Sister Howton in my area, we had a bunch of no answers but met a cool guy names Ray from Fiji. Even though his wife is a member and he had kids that went on missions AND has read the book of mormon he's still not a member. We testified of baptism and the gift of the Holy Ghost and eternal families but man is stubborn and just refuses to progress even though he admitted to feeling the spirit multiple times as we were speaking so idk but he was nice though I had my ...
