IT'S FALL YA'LL!!

IT”S FALL YA”LL!!

10-24-16

Its finally feels like Fall!!  We were in the high 80s earlier in the week and then we dropped down to the low 60s!!  I was freezing my patootie off but it felt so good!  Fall has FINALLY made it's way to Alabama! Which also means tornado season is on it's way... Pray for us! 

This week has been wonderful I feel like it has been so long since I sat down to email!  First things first! Tuesday we had Transfers!  My new companion is Sister Danes, From Nampa Idaho.  She is the youngest of 6 siblings and has 20 nieces and nephews. WHOA. She attended BYU Idaho for 2 semesters before she came out. She is shy and quiet in big groups but when its just one on one, she so talkative and fun!!!  She has always wanted to serve a mission and yall...she was born to be a missionary.  She is AWESOME.  So on top of things and really has so much to bring to this companionship.  Sister Danes was the only Spanish sister that came out this transfer so I know I was meant to train her.  She could have gone to plenty of other wonderful companions and areas.  There is a reason we are together and I am so excited for what the future holds! What we can learn together.

There is so much that went on this week. It was FULL of so many miracles and wonderful teaching experiences!!!!  I honestly want to write them all and tell them to you but this email would be as long as the bible so I will just share the highlights and emmaus experiences.

Emmaus Experiences:

********!  Remember her from last week? She is doing so good! We met her last week and have been teaching her close to every other day.  She is so solid!  Her BoM is all marked up and is learning every day.  We talked about Faith and read Alma 32,  her response after we said that was "Wait what chapter? you mean the Chapter I already read and marked up?"  She had already read Alma 32, as she was skipping around the Book of Mormon reading different parts!  SO COOL. The Lord is in every part of this work.  We invited and she committed to come to church Sunday but didn't show up :( But we aren't giving up! poco a poco.

*** CAME TO CHURCH!  We've been trying to get her to be at church for the last 2 weeks!  A member, Sister Jones, gave her a ride along with 3 of her nieces and nephews! I gave a talk in church about baptism and she was beaming the whole time! She really enjoyed it! Before Sunday we had a wonderful lesson with her about Baptism and we set a baptismal date forNovember 19th!! She has some Word of Wisdom problems that shes working through but The spirit was so strong and she was all for it.  She told us that she knew without a doubt that we were sent by God to help her. Sister Danes and I bore powerful testimonies about the truthfulness of the Gospel and told her that the next step is Church!  And she came!  We were so happy!  Yay Kim!  We both have so much love for that woman its insane.

Saturday, we went with the senior missionary couple, Elder and Sister Jones to visit some Less Actives in Linden, (a small town 30 minutes away)  it was SO FUN.  We talked with Sister *****, a small old black lady about 92 years old.  She was SO sweet!  She lived in Salt Lake City for 20 years with her brother and was introduced to the gospel there and was baptized.  She lovessss SLC.  She has lived pretty much all over the world, England, NYC, Hawaii, California and SLC was her favorite because everyone there was so sweet to her.  Today, many of her health problems keep her from attending church in Demop.******  has my heart!  She gave us some advice as "young folk"  and said to "Look to the Lord, Jesus, in all that you do, for every breath you take, for everything." -Sister *******.  How cute is that??!!!

I am SO happy.  This week we just worked so hard and were so busy.  I know that I am doing all I can for the Lord and whatever I cannot do, He can make it up. It really is up to us to BUILD that relationship we have with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  In return, we can feel true happiness.  Not the joy or happiness that comes from the world, not temporary happiness but lasting joy.  This is my testimony and prayer that we might remember those times that we have felt and recieved a witness from the Holy Spirit that He is the center of our lives and that we must remember Him always.  "Do a little more to be a little better."  THis is true happiness!.

I LOVE being a missionary and more than anything I love helping others come to this special knowledge that I have gained. 

Have a great week YALL!!!!!!!!!!!

Steadfast in CHRIST. Molinesrockmissionariesrule
