Week 10🌭




 Week 10🌭

Hey everyone!! :) i hope you all had a great great week!!

Haha this week was, oh my heavens, one for the books! It was like the best week ever. Sister Passey, my new companion, is like the coolest person ever, super hardworking, and just awesome!! It is going to be a fun transfer for sure. Our work from last transfer and from this transfer is already paying off. We are doing some more teaching and not just finding so that is always great!! :) We have 2 new investigators so we have THREE total!!! Super pumped about that!!!!!! :)) Savannah is getting baptized on Saturday and ahhhh, we are so excited for that we can hardly wait!!! Then this guyy named Lance.. well he is just so prepared. Heavenly Fathers hand is in this work, let me tell you. I mightve mentioned him before but he was just telling us how he had been looking for something and didnt know what it was but he thinks that this is it. And just talking about how there is always just a little small voice that tells him when he should be doing something right and ah, its just amazing. I love being a missionary and finding people like that!! Funny story for the week, we were in the hallway in our apartment complex and we see this cat (of course this isnt my first cat story). And it was a straggly litle thing so we felt bad and tried to find its owner by knocking on all these apartment doors! Couldnt find this cats owner so we were like, okay we will take it in for like 1 sec and try to feed it something (a hot dog because what else is in a missionarys fridge). It goes into our apartment and books it into our little storage room and behind our washing machine. It got stuck there forever.... we ended up having to move this big ol cabinet and sister passey crawled behind it and grabbed it. We found out we were both allergic to cats and we were itchy eyed for the rest of the night but the cats gone, and we are assuming it found its owner lol. Canada is gong great and wowza, it has been hot here. It was like 32 Celsius which idk if thats very hot in Fahrenheit but oh it sure felt like it but its cooling down and the light is getting shorter. Theres been a lot of tender mercies lately and we are so blessed. One more story.. Sister Passey was up in Fort St. John, B.C. before she came here and they ran into this woman on the street and gave her a Book of Mormon. They didnt have any information on her so couldnt follow up but guess what... 9 stinking hours away, we knocked on her door and they recognized each other. She was up visiting in Fort St John and she lives here in Beaumont!!! It was the coolest thing ever. She had been reading the Book of Mormon and we will be teaching her a lesson here soon this week!! People are seriously prepared.

 The church is true, God loves you, and i do too!!!! Have a great week everyone :))

Hey everyone!!! I hope that everyone has been doing great and has had an amazing week :)  This week has been great here in Beaumont :)) Beaumont is actually the 5th fastest growing town/city here in the whole country of Canada so that's cool! But we were able to drive out for a little bit and do some service in this awesome greenhouse!! it was so much fun to be there in the country and help this woman with all her flowers! It was awesome because in church we were talking about the three gardens that have added purpose to this life: Garden of Eden, Garden of Gethsemane, and Garden of the Empty tomb. So every time I see a person's garden, I'm reminded of those three life changing gardens in our own life <3 this week really picked up the pace for the work here and it was so awesome to see the Lord's hand in His work. We have a new investigator and we committed her to baptism! She is so awesome and is truly one of those that are prepared for us. I'm so excited t...

hi everyone!!! I hope that you have all had a great week and are safe from all these natural disasters!  This last week was good :) it was very busy and its going to get even more busy with the 2 baptisms coming up this weekend and 12 preset appointments we have. Its going to be a fun week! Our investigators are doing great and we are so pumped for this next Saturday!!! so life is good for everyone :) nothing really crazy happened this week. We have really grown close to the woman in the hospital and it was so cool to see how much she has grown. The first time we visited her, she was hiding the Book of Mormon around her roommates and was embarrassed of her religion. This last time we went and visited her, she had us bring extra copies of the Book of Mormon so she could write her testimony in them and give it to them! It was so awesome :)) I am so sorry but I really cant remember what even happened this week so here are some pictures. Oh we had Zone Conference!! That...

Happy 4th of July everyone! I'll try to keep some of the Star Spangled Banner in my mind today but after this weekend, O Canada is engraven in my head forever.   😂 Transfers came and I'm staying here in Beaumont and getting a new companion!!! Her name is Sister Patsy so I am so excited to get to know her and see her tomorrow!! :) :)) :) ):)) This week flew by. Time always flies!  We had a very busy weekend with Canada Day!! We were able to go to our wards pancake breakfast and a lot of the community came. It was a really neat experience to be there for their flag raising and all of their festivities. At the pancake breakfast, we noticed this family that we had knocked on their door. When we knocked on their door, we started going into a little discussion and nothing came out of it. Well they were there!!! At the pancake breakfast!!! And they recognized us and they started asking more and more questions and we taught them the first lesson right then and there in the m...
