This week was a miracle filled week! I am so excited to tell you all about it.
We started the week off having district meeting with a really good training about faith and the Atonement of Jesus Christ. We also pick a title of Christ to study every week. This week was Redeemer. I love this title. We talked about how the word redeem is to restore the worth of someone or something. Christ came to the earth to redeem all of us from the effects of the fall of Adam and Eve. He also came to redeem us from our sins so that we are able to be completely forgiven of our sins. The price that only a perfect being could pay. It took npt just someone, it was the Son of God who was able to redeem us. I love the line in the song I stand all amazed, "To rescue a soul so rebellious and proud as mine." Christ saved my stubborn soul and I am able to become better through him everyday. I love that title of Christ.
This week we made the goal to find 5 new people to teach. Friday came and we only found 1 new person. But we had the faith that we made that goal with God's help and we were going to reach that goal. Sunday afternoon came and we found our 5th person. It was -3 degrees outside but we still did it. It was an amazing miracle that we were able to find. We also made a goal to get three of our friends to church and we were able to reach that goal as well. We made a lot of our goals this week and that made both Sister Mitchell and I really happy:)
We had a baptism this week! It was a really amazing service and the spirit was so strong. I gave a talk on the holy ghost and it ended up being a really good experience. I love the whole McMiller family. Sariah is such a sweet girl and I love her so so so much!! The whole McMiller family was able to participate in the baptism. It was so sweet to see all of them be involved. Pictures will be below.

I am staying in Junction City for my final transfer! But sadly, Sister Mitchell is leaving and I am really sad about it. I will be getting a new companion for my last transfer and I am excited and nervous all at the same time. But I will let all of you know next week when I email.

I had the opportunity to bear my testimony in church yesterday and I want to share that now. I know that Joseph Smith is the prophet of the Restoration. I know that he knelt down in a grove of trees and God the Father and Jesus Christ appeared to him and told him that he would be an instrument in the hands of the Lord to being Christ's new testament church back to the earth after it was taken off. I know that Joseph Smith translated the book of Mormon by the gift and power of God! I know that the book is true and the gospel is true. I am out here to share to good news and that it was blessed the lives of so many people. I love the work and I have loved my mission with my whole heart!
