Week 48 - April 10, 2023

 Hello, everyone, hope all is well and everyone had an amazing Easter and Holy week!!! 

Easter Sunday 🐣🌟


Got to sleep over at Sister Boldt's slumber party.  She's from Cedar hills:)
Sister Holt's mom sent us an Easter package 

Such a special time to be a missionary, to wear my Savior's name and help others know of him more.  This week was so powerful especially thinking more of what the Savior did for me and for you! 

Yesterday at church we sang, "I know that my Redeemer lives," and the first verse touched me so much! 
"I know that my Redeemer lives.  What comfort this sweet sentence gives!  He lives, he lives, who once was dead.  He lives, my ever-living Head.  He lives to bless me with his love. He lives to plead for me above.  He lives my hungry soul to feed. He lives to bless in time of need."

Such a powerful thing to know that my Redeemer lives, He loves, He was Risen and He is always blessing us.  It truly is the most comforting news that we can give and help others know. 
We had exchanges this week, and it was my first time leading out an exchange. I went with Sister Young and we were in our area.  This Sister amazes me.  She is so devoted to this work and our Savior!  I learned so much from her and we saw so many miracles as we worked.

We went and visited one of our friends and his girlfriend was there.  She told us to come in and share what we've shared with him.   She told us that she's dealing with a lot of anxiety, and we promised her of the Savior's love for her and that she wasn't alone because of Him.  She began to cry and just thank us and told us she wants to know more of what's she was feeling!  The Spirit was working and she recognized it, it was so cool and powerful.  We felt so lucky for the knowledge we have and want to give as we have been given!! 
It's been so awesome to be spending so much time at the temple and helping other people come and see for themselves! This week will be the last week for the Richmond temple open house so we will be spending 5/7 days in Richmond to help with that!  It can for sure be stressful not spending time with our friends and finding, but the Lord asked us to do this, and we are seeing miracles for the sacrifice of time!  But if y'all could pray for all us missionaries in VIRGINIA and the people to recognize us and us to recognize them, it would mean the world!  Prayers are so felt here 🤍

Don't worry, Mom, I'd never forget.  My mom's birthday was this last week the 5th.  I hope everyone was able to wish that beautiful soul the happiest birthday and give her the biggest hug for me!!  I am so lucky to have my mom in my life.  She is truly my best friend, and I love her love for our Savior!!  God is so good for sending me to her, Love you mom❤️
I'm praying for you all and miss you!!
