Missionary Torture Chamber






Looking down the final stretch of my time at the MTC is a relief, but there were lots of good memories made with the peeps.

 

 

Spent my entire two weeks worth of missionary allowance on tide sticks.

 

 

Learned to pay more attention when sis miller is popping pills in the morning, or she's gonna spend the day on a ridiculous caffeine high.

 

 

Watched our district elders pick up way more girls speaking broken spanish than english. 

 

 

Hosted new arriving missionaries, and we were in the abduction tunnel, I was pumped. 

 

 

Woke up every morning to a loving smack in the face from my companion's pillow. 

 

 

Did baptisms today, and our elders got to baptize and confirm us! Super spiritual experience to finish the week with. Almost as glorious as whooping up on another disrict in sand volleyball last week. 

 

 

Our tuesday devotional came from Elder Curtis of the Seventy. Singing in the choir during the meeting was so so fun. He gave us a sneek peek at the upcoming book of mormon videos to be released this fall, and they were amazing to say the least. 

 

 

I've attached a photo of my favorite mural here, it's of the sea parting for Moses. It reminds me that God performs miracles for us to do what he asks, but we also have to commit and take the path he offers. I'm thankful everyday that the Lord sent me on a mission, and now I get to go through it. So, remember to be grateful for the miracles that have gotten you this far! 

God loves you, and I love you!

M&M Week

Hey yall! This week President Amos had us try to spend every waking moment of the day with members! This member & missionary initiative took alot of prep so it was fun to finally live it up! We are teaching a couple families, and hearing our members bear testimony to them was heavenly. Being a missionary is such a privilege!  One inactive member we visited asked us to feed her horses, so we went out looking for the pasture. Didn't take long to realized that we were in it! Soon we had a couple very spirited horses pushing us up against the house. Got a couple fat kisses from one of them so at least my mom can rest assured that there was no shortage of affection for her missionary this week.  I wish I could tell more stories, but alot of our friends are on post and we can't share much about the activity in Fort Polk.  In one of President Nelson's talks from conference he said, "The adversary has other disturbing tactics. Among them are his efforts to blur the line be

God Calls Mandeville To Repentance

This week was filled to the brim!! Sister van Stam left to go to BR so we're a trio this transfer until Sister Beazer goes home in August!  The heat was unreal, the humidity made it feel like 110 all week!! I passed out twice on this dudes porch and it was probably cus of the heat, or it was the fact that he was bashing us out of our minds.  We drove to the mission home Saturday morning to pick up Sister Beazer, and got to see a few missionaries get picked up by their parents. Totally didn't make me trunky:) We had an insane miracle with Caitlyn!! We felt a prompting to invite her to move up her date to next week. When we got to her house she beat us to it! Said she'd had a prompting to move it to the same date we'd been thinking! So now we're planning a tism and a temple trip for right after!!  A couple crazy storms hit us this weekend, with lightning straight up striking in our parking lot and thunder that shook the apartment!! God unleashed the call to repentance
