100 Days A Missionary






It hit 65 degrees for a few days this week and no one knew what to do. We wore sweaters on sweaters and sweatpants under our dresses. We looked ridiculous- but cozy:) 


This week we fasted to find a Melchizedek Priesthood holder in our spanish area. The odds were pretty much against us so it was a miracle when we got a call from the Elders saying they had a spanish guy that just arrived here from Puerto Rico, and is already a member!! 


This week at church we had 5 people pull up that we didn't expect to see! It was so fun to have Sister Starling elbow me and say, "look who's here!" And then a few moments later she'd do it again, and again, and again. 


My girl Misty has been through multiple surgeries and hadn't been to church in months. When we saw her at church she happily reported that despite throwing up multiple times, swelling so bad that she couldn't fit into her shoes, and waking up to the worst hair day of her life, (fellas just trust me on this one- there's no anger quite like getting mad at your own hair) she told her husband to just throw it in a ponytail, grab her flip flops and get them to church! I was so proud of her, and her service dog Pongo was the star of relief society. 


Another family we're teaching is starting to commit to baptism! The oldest son Christian was baptized three years ago and has been laboring ever since to help his family. This Sunday he asked us why his little brother Shawn hasn't been baptized. We told him his brother didn't feel ready yet, and 45 minutes later he came back with Shawn saying he wanted to be baptized- next Sunday. There is no greater missionary work than that within our own families! 


We also got Transfer News! I'm going to Madison, Mississippi! So stoked to be serving my mission in multiple states!! 


Also I forgot to send pics from zone conference so I'll attach those to this email :)
Sorry this week's email is on the longer side, but just too many wonderful things happened! We had even more miracles with our army friends, and when I can talk to yall in person I'll be so excited to share them.

Love yall!

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
