LET THE HOLY SPIRIT GUIDE

 

Wow wow this was an amazing crazy last two weeks of the transfer. General conference was absolutely AMAZING I especially loved elder gongs talk about ministering and my testimony of missionary work grew so much!! They are the same work and truly if every member kept every covenant and promise they made there would be no missionaries😶‍🌫️ but I am so grateful to be able to have this time that is absolutely jam packed with everything that is most important in life. 

Fav quote from the week "The most important things in life are the things that last the longest"


We had some amazing lessons and I could feel the spirit testifying through me. It's a crazy feeling when you teach with the spirit. We taught our friend Anthony the plan of salvation and it was on zoom and he was just waiting for his car to get serviced so it wasn't the most focused and we couldn't get to every point of the pos but we just testified that God has a plan for us and there is so much more than this. The spirit was so strong and peaceful. 


We got transfer news this week and I'm outta the heights! I'll be going to Anderson! Everytime I told someone that in my family and ysa ward they followed with "where is that"  🫠 it's right in between Chico and redding. Essentially, it's out there and it's up north. I'll be two hours from the temple and the mission office and apparently the people are a Lil crazy up there but I am so excited! That area is currently only teaching one person so I'm excited to grind finding! I won't be in a ysa anymore but I will be with sister allreds mtc companion so I'll be greenie breaking sister Broschinsky! (Transfer after training)


I hit halfway and I turn 20 next transfer so all the crazy things! I have been so incredibly blessed on my mission and if I have learned anything on my mission it's that God loves me and is SO SO aware of me. I had I hope they call me on a mission stuck in my head this week. It still is so surreal to wear the tag. I caught my reflection last week and was like wow. I am a missionary right now. AHHHHHHH


I love and miss you all! New address next week and all the pics! Everyone take the time to pick a new activity to make your sabbath more meaningful! With all the emphasis on Easter and the atonement I was like this should be every week. So pick something now to better remember christ every week! I will be reading my patriarchal blessing every Sunday! I know you will see a new light to your Sunday worship by remembering Jesus Christ. Any time I have felt down or been having a bad day I just think of Him and I remember that I can truly do all things through Christ.

Big week with crazy crazy things so we doing bullet points

Monday
Last FHE and I definitely cried a Lil bit saying bye to my beautiful lovely ysas I will miss them so so so much but it's time to move forward and on to the regular missionary work in just family wards😭 jk I am so excited. We did a super fun Easter egg hunt and a yummy dinner and we didn't win any prizes but I got to say bye to all my favorites. 

Tuesday
Last lesson with jacob🥲 he is going to go off and do so many amazing things. We scurried off to the temple for colton (one of my ysas) endowment and it happened to be the same session as the departing missionaries so I got to say bye to sister ika and hma Lunsford I will miss them so much. I also had my last member dinner in citrus with the ferrils who were my first dinner in citrus so it was super tender. I love them. 

Wednesday
TRANSFER DAY I got my whole life packed up and we went to the mission office to get things moving and grooving and drove 2 plus hours to red bluff my new area back up in the north!!! I am definitely not a city girl and it is so nice to be back in the country/ middle of nowhere. I was missing my road kill and orchards. Plus we are living in a bougie members mother in law house I love it. 

Okay my brain has turned off for the night but I love and miss you all and I'll finish talking about everything next week. I am having lots and lots of fun and I am doing super good with my new comp. 

Here's my new address
753 Lucknow Ave. Red Bluff, CA 96080 United States


Let the Holy spirit guide in your life and you will see so many miracles unfold and so much more peace and happiness than you can ever imagine

  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...
