Wonderful Week of Wonderfulness

Image
What up fam!? This week was so great!!!  I was able to go on two exchanges this week and they were so much fun! We were able to see miracles and find people to teach in both of them (we found 5 new investigators yesterday!). I went on exchanges with Sister Denham Wednesday and Thursday and I went on exchanges with Sister Gutierrez   on Monday   and   Tuesday ! I had too much fun on both exchanges! I love getting to know the sisters and learning from them. This is the funnest thing ever! Sister Bullock and I were also able to do a service project with the YSA on Saturday. We volunteered together at BGSU (Bowling Green State University) to help Feed My Starving Children! It was so much fun and such a wonderful thing to do! We loved it! I love the YSA! It's full of some odd people but it's really fun and everyone is so accepting! We wore hair nets and we filled bags with rice, soy, vitamins, and veggies and then we sealed and packaged them. Each box we packed had 3

Great Week!

Hello mi familia! This week has been great! We went to the temple last Wednesday and man, oh man, I LOVE THE TEMPLE! We did an endowment session and a bunch of initiatory sessions and it was so great. I just love the temple so much and the best things are inside that will help us be with Heavenly Father and our Savior and our families forever! There is nothing greater than that!  Also we did service at a member's farm and we found kittens there! They were sooooo cute! I died!  Also MLC (Missionary Leadership Counsel) was this week and that was bomb! It was so great to be able to counsel with all the leaders of the OCM! I was able to see so many people I loved too! What a blessing! Also it's super fun because we get to carpool with the zone leaders from the Toledo Stake. We all get to party it up in the mini van! That's what we drive. It turned 10,000 miles this week. It's so much fun! It was a blast, but it was weird being in a car with so many boys again!

What up fam!? First things first, it is FLAT over here in northwest Ohio. Like this is the flattest place I've ever been. I swear I could literally see the curve of the earth if there weren't so many trees.  It has been fun to experience the change of scenery! The farther west you go in Ohio the flatter it gets and since I've been slowly moving west it's slowly been getting more flat.  This week has been so wonderful! It was hard to say goodbye to everyone in Akron and it was even harder to say goodbye to my baby, Sister Grimnes, but Bowling Green has been so fun and kind!  My new companion is named Sister Bullock. She is from La Verne, California and she is funny and a hard worker and so fun to be around! We've gotten along super well with each other!  This area is super fun because Sister Bullock and I are covering the Bowling Green Family ward and also we cover the Bowling Green Young Single Adult Branch! It isn't a huge ward and the YSA is lik

What up fam? This week has been such a great week. It has been so spiritually uplifting I feel like I have been enough spiritually uplifted for 18 years, but that's not too much spiritual upliftation because you can never be too spiritually uplifted! General Conference was so filled with the Holy Ghost. Each and ever session gave me chills and tears because the Spirit was so strong. I especially felt God's love and a confirmation that we have modern day apostles and prophets during the Solemn Assembly. That was such a great experience and such a spiritual one. As I stood to sustain President Nelson I just get a reaffirming feeling that I know this is Christ's church restored to the earth. I'm so grateful to know that. I especially loved President Eyring's talk about the Holy Ghost. I've had lot's of questions about how I can better keep the Holy Ghost with me and his talk answered so many of them. Heavenly Father answers our prayers! He really, really
