Adam's Baptism! :D

Image
Hello friends and family, This week was so, so, so wonderful! We saw like a billion miracles this week! #1 HIGHLIGHT OF THE WHOLE WEEK! ADAM EMMENDORFER WAS BAPTIZED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT WAS SO WONDERFUL! His kids were there and it was so great. Happiest moment!! He was so stoked. And he's so ready and he bore his testimony and it was so sweet! It's been so amazing to watch his testimony of the gospel grown these past weeks. It's been incredible to witness! He also was c onfirmed on Sunday and it was so wonderful. He invited so many people to his baptism. He had so many friends and family there! It was awesome! We've started teaching his friend Darren. Adam has completely changed his life in the past year. One year ago he didn't even believe in God and now he is a true disciple of Jesus Christ. Adam is the bomb. I'm so glad he's my family!  We had cookie splits Thursday night. We went to visit the first person on our list and we knocked

Well ... Here Was the Week! And It Was Good!

Well this week was good! SO GOOD!! I went on exchanges with Sister Bretz this week   My last exchange.  It was so good though! I learned a lot about diligence. She's so amazing! And we had a great time! We did service at the Salvation Army and when we got to the car we had the sweetest note left on our windshield. It was so great! We had interviews this last week and that means we had some instructions from the Assistants. I loved it so much! They taught us a super simple way to teach the 3rd point in The Restoration- "Heavenly Father Reveals His Gospel In Every Dispensation." It's a lot of new things for people to learn and honestly I've struggled with it my whole mission. Luckily the Holy Ghost is who helps people understand the gospel and when I don't teach the best He is so good at helping people know its true anyway! But it was so good! I'm so grateful I can apply this to my teaching now! Basically it was like teaching and checking

Hey fam! This week went by crazy fast. Honestly, time just needs to slow down. I'm not quite ready to go home yet. Don't get me wrong. I'm excited to see all of you, but I'm really sad to be leaving. I'm trying to soak it all in while I can!  This week was a super one! We had exchanges and both Sister Bretz and her trainee, Sister Anderson, came to Roseville. It was so much fun! I was able to spend the whole day with Sister Anderson and she's awesome. I swear when I had been out for 3 weeks I said maybe like 3 words a day (okay maybe that's an exaggera tion). I was so nervous and it took me a super long time to get used to the missionary way, but Sister Anderson was bomb! She killed it the whole day! We studied the Plan of Salvation together. Wow. I love Heavenly Father so much! He loves so much. His plan for us to have joy and to return to Him with our families (aka the Plan of Salvation) is literally perfect. Jesus Christ makes it all possible to

The Miracles Haven't Stopped!

Wow! What an amazing week Sister Pierce and I had! We have witnessed so many of the Lord's blessings! Tricia and Christian brought their friend Louy to church and we've started teaching him.  Christian knows the Book of Mormon is true!!!!!! I love those 3 people so much and all of their dogs! Adam came to church!! The ward LOVED him! He loved church! We taught him the Word of Wisdom and he threw away everything that would stop him from living it! He's been studying the Book of Mormon everyday and probably gets more out of his studies than I do!  We love Adam so much! (By we I mean all 7 missionaries serving in this ward!) We stand by the front doors and greet people before sacrament meeting starts every Sunday and when he walked through the church doors on Sunday, we all shouted, "ADAM!" at the same time! He's just so cool! We will probably get to meet his kids this week!!!!!  We started teaching Kelly. She's  Adam's daughter-in-la

So Many Miracles!

Hello everyone! This week was so good! I can't believe it's already Monday again! I swear time doesn't exist. It's so crazy!  Sister Pierce and I have seen some good things this week! We had zone conference and it was so good! First off, let me just say, I LOVE PRESIDENT AND SISTER CLEVELAND SO MUCH! And this zone conference was bomb because President Cleveland's mom came and spoke to us! She is such a small little old lady and she talked to us about her life and how the gospel has blessed her and her family. She talked to us about enduring to the end and having a Christ centered life. She is amazing and it was amazing to hear from her! I also bore my departing testimony. I literally want to be a missionary forever. Obvs, I won't be a full-time one forever, but I always want to share my testimony of Jesus Christ and His restored gospel because I know it's true. Everyone needs to hear it. Living the Gospel and following Christ's modern-day apostles
