The one where I finally put someone on date over Facebook

 This week was really hard at the start. I said goodbye to Sister Wall! I had a temporary companion who became my best friend in two days. She is now a social meda leader and she is also training a greenie. I am still in Ridgepoint and my companion is Sister Reid.

This week was a week full of miracles. It was almost overwhelming. I am so grateful for the many miracles I was able to witness this week. I will tell you all about it!

Quote I love

First thing first, our friend Denae is not missing! She was in the hospital for a while and she is doing better. She does needs prayers. Please pray for Denae. She is on date for the 30th of this month. She is super excited to be baptised into the true church. We are also teaching her mom. It was a miracle that we were able to meet her mom. 

Another INSANE miracle was our friend Julius. He was someone that we found on facebook. The first thing he said when we called him was that he gave his life to God and that he wants to be a better person. We taught him the message of the Restoration. The Spirit was so so storng. I have never felt it that strong over the phone before. We had the prompting to put him on date for baptism. He was waiting for us to ask him if he would be baptised. He will be baptied on the 13th of August. He lives in Junction City so he is now being taught by the Elders there. They will take good care of him. 

3 of our friends came to church! Our entire district has been getting all of our friends to church recently. It has been a huge miracle. This last transfer, I didn't see one zero in our key indicators. That is HUGE for me personally. I have been struggling with that the last few trasnfers of my mission. I am so grateful that my Heavenly Father is aware of me and the work that I have been putting to gather Israel. 

We have our friend Destinee. She is honestly my best friend. We had a lesson with her and her boyfriend this week. ANOTHER MIRACLE THAT WE FOUND HIM. She told me that meeting me changed her life. She needed to meet me for some reason. That her and I crossed paths so that I was able to help her understand God more. I was crying when I heard those words. I know that I am in this area to help her grow and to continue to help her on the path that leads to baptism. 

Service day with district @ Salvation Army

I want to close this email with my testimony. I KNOW this church is true. There is no way that I can deny what the Gospel has done. It has to be true. I know that Joseph Smith taught each and every one of the lesson of the power of asking questions. Because he humbled himself to God and asked him a question. We know have the gospel of Jesus Christ. The same church that Jesus Christ himself brought to the earth during his mortal ministry. I love my Savior. I love Wichita Kansas! I know that I am a daughter of a Heavenly Father who loves me and knows that I am striving my best to become a disciple of his Son, Jesus Christ. 

I love you! Jesus loves you! God loves you!

The one where Kansas is really sad

Good-bye President & Sister Ernst

Leaving the Group Chat

  This week was a good week, number wise. People wise, it was a really depressing week. The people we met just had really tough things that were going on in their lives. 

One of our friends left her husband. And he was threatening suicide. Our friend called us and asked if we could call him. So we did. He has a really hard life. He said he wasn't going to tell us anything but he proceeded to tell us everything anyway. That's happens a lot here in Kansas. But he wasn't interested in a message. He did pray with him and we don't really know what happened after that. 

We had 5 of our friends come to church!!! It was a huge blessing and it was such a good meeting for all of them to be at. Our bishop spoke right to one of our friends who was really stuffing that morning. She was really lifted and she wants to come back to church! We are excited to continue to meet with her and her two boys. 

We thought that we had a friend go missing last week. But good news....we know where she is!! We haven't been able to get in contact with her. BUT we know that everything is good. 

I went in exchange with my trainer this week. It was super fun to be with her again. She was shocked how different I am now than when I was with her.

Also PRESIDENT AND SISTER BARR ARE IN KANSAS! I love them so so much already! They walked in the room at the meet and greet we had with them. The Spirit testified to me that they are meant to be here and I am going to learn a lot from them. It was an emotional week with President Ernst leaving. I got to see him when one last time before he left. He gave me some advice on how to help my area and the ward be more unified in the work. Hopefully I able to stay and do the things that President Ernst has council's me to do.
