Week 56: Cakes, Sister Davidson, and miracles!

We love President and Sister Love
Zone Conference



Hello hello!
This week was incredible! The mission is seriously just the best place, and the New Mark ward is amazing! It is full of great people who are really reaching out and doing missionary work!
This wonderful week’s highlights:
P-day

  • last p-day we had a cake decorating competition! It started out really rough when our cake wouldn’t come out of the pan and we frosted the cake hot pink and then realized we couldn’t do anything with the hot pink..... but I would say we definitely redeemed ourselves! pics to come



  • I got to have a skype lesson with someone I used to teach in one of my old areas and basically that made it the best day of my life. I love her so much!

  • Our ward had its pinewood derby/chili cook off and it was so much fun! But even better! We had 2 investigators come and the ward fellowshipped them so much that we didn’t even need to be by them. It was the craziest thing I have ever experienced but it was amazing! Also, the chili was way good.

  • Sister Davidson (my trainer) went home :( BUT! I got to be the one to take her to the airport!! I almost died it was such a cool experience! She spent the night with Sister Farnsworth and I and then we woke up early and got her on a plane to Wyoming. I learned so much from Sister Davidson, and it was so special being able to hear how the rest of her mission went and to be able to keep learning from her!
    Last day of Sister Davidson's mission, first day of my mission

    the trio!

  • So, church yesterday, super amazing. The Bishop pulls me aside and tells me that he has someone who wants to be baptized! This ward everyone, it just blows me away. 

I feel so humbled and grateful for the amazing experiences that my Heavenly Father is allowing me to have on my mission. I have learned so much and I marvel at the miracles I have the opportunity to see happen every day! 
For my spiritual thought this week I would love to talk about member missionary work. I love this quote from Elder Ballard, "Remember, brothers and sisters, we’re not marketing a product. We’re not selling anything. We’re not trying to impress anyone with our numbers or our growth. We are members of the restored Church of Jesus Christ, empowered and sent forth by the Lord Himself to find, nourish, and bring safely into His Church those who are seeking to know the truth."
The responsibility to help bring our brothers and sisters home rests on all of us. I love member missionary work because it doesn’t need to be anything crazy or elaborate, often times it is the small things that make the biggest difference. Somethings I have seen is members who bring pass along cards with them everyone, members who invite people over to dinner with the missionaries, members inviting people to church or baptisms. But what it really all comes down to is just being open about how and why you live the way you do. I would love to invite you all to pick something you can do this week to be a better member missionary and then do it! I know the Lord blesses all our efforts.  

I love the Lord and I love His work!
Much love!
Sister Cammack
