Hello hello,
 
This week has been AMAZING!! We had a mission tour basically a general authority came (virtual) to our mission and it was so good! We got to hear and talk to him and his wondering wife an hour or two every day for a few days! I learned so much especially about our purpose as missionaries which is the same purpose that Jesus Christ had in this life! To bring people eternal life, eternal joy, and eternal happiness! It was so good and so many things that I can improve on! 

This week I was on exchanges -basically we switch comps for a day with STLs (sister training leaders) to help us, answer questions, make sure we are doing things good, stuff like that. It was so fun!! 

We meet with 2 amazing family's! They are part member returning families. One of them we started to do a Bible study!!!! The dad was anti for awhile and has come around to having us do a Bible study as long as we keep it to that! At the beginning he wouldn't really look at us but at the end he even said bye and waved!!! Hearts are being softened very slowly here and it's so cool to see!! They live out a ways like 50ish minutes but every soul is precious and worth so much!! So leave the 99 to find the 1, just like Jesus Christ Himself did! 

This passed couple of days Ether 12:4 has been on my mind. 

"Wherefore, whoso believeth in God might with surety hope for a better world, yea, even a place at the right hand of God, which hope cometh of faith, maketh an anchor to the souls of men, which would make them sure and steadfast, always abounding in good works, being led to glorify God."

Hope is so important! I hope for a better world! It is my anchor to life! What do you hope for?? This question is so big! So think about it!!!

 This week has been a week of miracles! We scheduled more lessons this week than maybe all of this before time put together! The past couple of days we have 8 lessons scheduled!!!!! Only 1 happened, with a member, but hey that is what Jesus Christ did! He left the 99 to find the 1!  Another miracle! One of the sweet members ordered us Dominos! Pizza is amazing! Also the STL's (Sister Training Leaders) brought us a couple of things! So much love from all the people!!  In case you are wondering why others are bringing us such, my whole district is currently quarantined. Most of us tested positive for COVID, but all of us are doing good and the Lord is blessings us all the time! I am quite tired and have most of the symptoms of COVID, but I'm doing OK. Sick or not Pizza and carmel apples are Amazing! I also tried Carmel apples for the first time, so that was fun!   President Nelson's message here is so amazing https://youtu.be/i51gcWCs-Ho

 Hello, So an amazing thing happened today! We went to a gas station to get me a soda and a soft pretzel. We went to pay and the sweet cashier lady payed for it! We were shocked and was like thank you! We were confused because we tried looking her up and didn't find her, so maybe we have to go back to the gas station!  Also fun thing- the elders we are in a ward share have Covid and the sisters in our district too... and transfers are tomorrow and we were supposed to loose the other sisters and be in an all elders district except for us. But it's all good. Tender mercy's are everywhere! The Lord sends people in our lives at a specific time and reason! I total believe this! So many times this week it has been made evident! So many stories to share but so little time!  Message of all of this email!!!  You have people that love and care about you! God is our loving Heavenly Father! He loves you more than you know!!! Things happen for a reason and sometimes...
