Week 35: I love love

 Hey guys! I'm freaking tired and it's past my bedtime so I hope this makes sense..

First, just wanted to give a lil update. If you have been following my emails I talked about a guy that I was gonna ask to help get the key unstuck from our mailbox but then I was able to get it out and ya that probably doesn't make a whole lot of sense if you didn't read that email but ya. Basically, there was a guy and it was way cool how we met and we set up an appointment and we were super excited because he seemed way interested! But a couple days before the appointment he texted and said hey is your other friend gonna be there? If so I can bring my friend and we can get dinner and maybe drinks? So then we were like freak and had to tell him our purpose as missionaries again and ya… he didn't respond and so it was just a bit awkward but it gets worse. This man works at the building right under us and it's made of glass… so every time we pass we just put our heads down and walk as fast as we can. My dad asked about him tonight and I had totally forgotten to give yall the update on him so ya there you go.

 

We had a super busy week, filled with tender mercies and it was just so good, and then to top it off we had general conference! As a missionary, I feel like it's better than Christmas! I find myself constantly searching for answers, for inspiration for our friends, for strength, and for guidance, and this weekend I got hit with things I've been seeking guidance for and things I didn't know I was seeking for but needed. I literally feel so blessed and grateful that we have a prophet and apostles that truly speak from God. I'm also grateful for a God that knows his children perfectly and individually. He knows me and I felt that as I heard things this weekend that I knew came straight from him. 

I loved the general theme of love and how literally everything in the gospel is centered on it. This quote really stuck out to me, "can he rely on my love, as I rely on his." I know that God loves me and that gives me strength. I know without a doubt that I would not be out here if it wasn't for the strength and love I feel from him every day. I want to work on showing God that I love him and I invite you guys to do the same. If we give everything to him he will give everything to us. His will will become our will. BE ALL IN. 

John 15: 9-15

Lots of love for all of you! Make it a great week!

Week 25: Cook the Rice

  Servus! I hope you all had an amazing week:)) I had a wild one and it was awesome!! Also, this one's kinda long so sorry bout it.  I had a funny German whoops this week. I have them at least 5 times a day but this one made me laugh. We were at a members house and the last time we were there she gave us some coupons and so I was telling her that we used them to buy some things but instead of saying bought (gekauft) I said getauft which means baptized hahaha guess that's just what's on my mind… anyways kinda funny thought I'd share. We got to get together with our whole mission for a mission conference and it was sooo fun. I am exhausted tho and think I might need a week to recover haha. It started out with a 7-hour train ride straight into street finding. Picture this… 136 missionaries hit the streets in one of the biggest cities in Germany and give out 200+ books of Mormon. Basically coolest thing ever. And your girl gave out her first book of Mormon in Deutsch!!! Let...

Week 39: tracting! And ET?

Image
  Being on a mission is a roller coaster let me tell ya… some days are just the best and others ya not so much but hard things make us stronger if we let them and that is something I am grateful for.  So I basically got told yesterday that I am being ET'd in a week!!! I am so sad about it! I was almost positive I was gonna be transferred but I was expecting to at least finish out the transfer. Anyways I've basically been living here in Austria illegally for about 3 months.. I don't have any visa and they're basically gonna have to sneak me over the border so that's kinda scary… don't know what's gonna happen because I also don't have a German visa and ya it's just a big mess. Pray, I don't get deported! On Thursday we finally had a free afternoon with no appointments, so we decided to stop by some less active members. The first one wasn't there so we wrote him a note and then decided since we were already let into the building that we would t...

Week 11: Life is Good

  Hey y'all!! We had zone conference this week and oh man it was too good. We talked a lot about giving it our all out here on the mission. We only get this experience once and so we need to give it 100%. I loved hearing all of the missionaries talk about their experiences and it made me remotivated to keep working hard and doing my best every day! We also had exchanges this week which was super fun! I got to go to Madison Mississippi for a day! They actually have stores and restaurants and stuff… very different than our small town here in Mendenhall.  Kinda a silly story for y'all… we were walking to a member's house and this boy was walking right behind us and slowly caught up to us and so we said hi and he had a very thick accent so we didn't really know what he was saying. He went a different direction than us and then about a minute later he ran to us and said, "yal...
