Week 68: Come to Zion!



Good morning! I hope that you are all having a great week so far!

Okay everyone, this one was such a great one! I am so excited to tell you all about it! 
 
Here are some of the little tender mercies:
  • Sister Holt and I twinned hard core this week! So I found this floral shirt at a thrift store a few weeks ago and I loved it so I bought it. Then! Last pday she found the same pattern but in cardigan style at a different thrift store. It was a beautiful thing!

  • The jail has been slowing down a little since finals and end of school and what not is coming up. But all of the tours that have come in have been really amazing! 
  • Spring is finally here! MO weather is still the craziest
  • I had chocolate dairy free milk today, that made my life
  • We have had some really amazing lessons and visits this week!
  • We are going to the motherland of Independence today! I love independence!

 Okay, major miracle time!
So a man came into the Historic Liberty Jail looking for a better life. We were not on shift but some amazing sisters took him through! He was very interested so they started teaching him online. Here's were it gets crazy, after a few lessons online he agrees for local missionaries to meet with him- and we were his local missionaries! So we just had a lesson with him the other day and he is now preparing to be baptized! Something that he said really stood out to me, he said that this is all so different from what he has been taught before (he does not have a Christian background) but that he loves it and believes it. He has so much faith already!

This week we had stake conference and it was AMAZING! The best stake conference I have ever been to. It was focused around the 5 keys. They are
1. daily scripture study
2. daily prayer
3. weekly family home evening
4. frequent temple worship
5. actively sharing the gospel
They brought up these 5 keys at the last stake conference and then at this one they had members share the blessings  they have seen come into their lives as they have worked on these things. It was amazing to see how inspired these 5 things really are! They also talked a lot about how as we do these 5 things it will help us be better prepared to minister to others. I would love to invite all of you to pick one of these things and work on them so that you can receive blessings as well! I would especially like to invite you to work on family home evening if that is something your family struggles with. I have seen immense blessings on my mission from families doing family home evening. 
 

I love you all!
