Week 59: WHAT'N THE WORLD YOUR PARENTS NAME YA SCOUT FOR?!?

Scout Benson

Ouch right? Yeah the lady that said that was pretty brutal. Thats a direct quote too. Sometimes on a first encounter we introduce ourselves with our first names but this time.... it hurt. 😢 nah jk but for real who says that???? 


ANYWAYS. I have wild news for yall. Transfers are this week. Sister Morley is getting transfered to Tallahassee for her last transfer! We're sad We're getting separated, but she's stoked to have something exciting happening her last transfer. Plus! We'll see each other at zone conference. My new comp is sister Johnson, who was trained by my mtc comp sister matthews!! She's great so im excited. BUT THE REAL WILD STUFF. My trainer- sister ashby- started her mission in waycross and was there 6 months. This is her last transfer. She's getting transfered back to waycross. Isn't that. The craziest. But wait. There's more. Her new comp? Sister ballard. My adorable one of a kind trainee. Is your mind BLOWN or what???? 🤯🤯🤯 craziness. And sister Palmer is getting another sweet sister and they're gonna kill it in gainesville. 


This week was a good one!! We taught a lot of lessons and had a lot of miracles. Here's some homies! Cause I like doing it this way. 


Ashley- has been slammed busy so we haven't had a lesson 😔 

Denise- we had a FIRE lesson. We taught the plan of salvation and she was really thinkng and had lots of questions. 

Dave- we went to the hospital to visit our friend Dave. He is finally willing to put God first because of his situation. 

Marah- is realizing her life will be more miserable without God, even if she's angry. 

Shelley- we invited her to read and pray about the book of mormon, and I'd she found it to be true to be baptized. She said yes! It was so rad cause we were teaching just normal and I had such a heavy prompting to ask her to be baptized. I wrestled with it but then did it and GOD IS GOOD. in case you weren't sure ;) 

Coles- they came to church in a bunch of new clothes :)))) they just got over lice tho so we have um... avoided the premises for a got sec haha. 


All together a good week! So sad to be losing sister Morley 😞 but she's on to new things!!!

  Happy Tuesday morning!! ☀️☀️ it’s a lovely day so far:) Ok! So here’s an experience I have been feeling like I want to share with you all: Maybe a week ago? Ish? I was in the temple for to do initiatories. I can’t remember if I had an appointment or I was just walking in… I think I was just walking in.  The PCC temple has a really good system for helping people who walk in w/out an appointment be able to do initiatories. However after they got my name and all that jazz they asked me to sit in the front area where the desk is instead of in the back near the booths bc the benches back there were full. This was sorta upsetting to me, I had gone that day really hoping to be able to feel the spirit. But being up there near the desk meant I had to try and tune out all the happenings and chatting there. Recently I’ve discovered that when I’m anxious I can get pretty sound sensitive. So if there’s any noise going on it can completely overwhelm me with anxious thoughts.  I start...
