His Grace Is Sufficient

Howdy y'all! 

I'm sooo excited to be spending the 4th of July in the great state of Texas. Celebrations have already started! Anyone have any fun plans? 


This week has been such a good one!

☆ For the first time in our mission's history, we hit 51 baptisms in a month!!! I'm not at all a “numbers missionary”, but that is a big step because there were 51 souls who made sacred covenants with God. During the course of my mission, I've seen the work and the change in the missionaries to get us to where we are today. Last week, President Hugues invited us to pray for the people on date for baptism in every prayer that we said. So for the entire week, we prayed specifically for those 8 individuals that obstacles would be removed, and that God would help us make what needs to happen come to a reality. 

☆ Brother Perez had his retirement party, they really went all out. Hundreds of people, Samoan dancing, and tonsss of food. It was quite the experience. 


We've been talking a lot about grace lately between my companion. We listen to byu speeches in the car, and my favorite is “His grace is sufficient” by Brad Wilcox. It's a good listen, definitely recommend. Just your reminder that you and Christ are in this TOGETHER! He will always be by your side, and wants you to choose HIS side. 


Remember God loves you and so do I!

Hey y’all!     This has been quite. the. week.      Highlights: -got to see Sister Demmerly at mission tour! -Got to spend some time with Ann at Bingo -Had a ward Christmas party, all of the primary girls decorated cookies and gave them to me. And they waited for me to eat them…. it’s so good to see that they look up to me, and want me to get obese.  -had a Christmas devotional with the whole mission -Sister Okie drew me the best picture ever of me and Morgan Wallen, and Sister Sody told a story based on the picture. Funniest comp bonding ever:) -Held the CUTEST puppy ever named Lola.     So on Friday, we were in the middle of teaching Toni. The lesson was pretty good, when all of a sudden the biggest BOOM happened. Like the blinds and doors were shaking in the house. And there was the brightest light that flashed. (Now I’ve been in Missouri during huge thunderstorms, I thought I’ve seen and heard it all.) I thought that WW3 was starting. No joke....

Hey y’all!! Oh. My. Goodness. I changed my P-day because I’m going the the temple today. I’m so happy to be going to the Lord’s house with Norma-Jean, but tell ya what I am TIRED!!! But in the best way;) Its been a kind of slow week and a half, the roads are COVERED with ice so we have not been allowed to drive. So that means: 1. doing all of our work over the phone… 2. begging members to give us rides 3. walking everywhere we go  Soooo this week we…. -did over 60 hours of phone work -had ALL of our lessons cancel on us -more than half of our member meals canceled on us -we ran out of food, money, and miles -I made sister sody so jealous because everyones little kids come and give me the biggest hug, then just stare at her…and it always happens to the people who we’ve never met. She says it’s a spiritual gift haha.  -got my fingernails painted by Dallas’ little girl named Haven.  -got our hair cut by sister kern, she’s from Salem and I had NO IDEA!! -watched “why I believ...

Next Stop: PROVO MTC

Hey y’all! What a week! Hope you all had a happy Halloween! I love being a missionary.  My district and I joke that it’s giving us a sliver of what being a new parent is like.  You go to bed tired, you wake up tired, all day you’re tired. But it’s okay, because you love it!!  -My family made it to Italy! They love it! Must be quite the adventure having no car, no house, and having a loaf of bread cost nearly $10…  -I have spent over 50 hours on the computer between classes, lessons, and zoom meetings with my district and my companion.  -I taught my first lesson! It’s starting to feel so real and I’m loving every minute of it.  -Had the ward trunk or treat… I love halloween so of course I had to dress up… -Had chicken and rice for dinner! I’m telling you, any type of chicken is a food that makes me proud to be an American.  -Probably drank half of my body weight of lemonade and chocolate milk… don’t worry mom. Nama and Bampa are taking good care of me! ...
