Sister Cheyenne Skinner: 3/4/24

 Sometimes you just need to name it JORGE

HAPPY MARCH AND LEAP YEAR WEEK! I hope you all were able to enjoy Feb 29th to it's fullest! Here are some of the things we did this week to celebrate. 

FINDING

This week we had a quick study we needed to get done so we went to one of our parks to do it before we went finding and right as we were starting a man came up and started talking to us and then another man came and THEN a dog came with its owner and the dog came right up to us and sat on our feet! So imagine us two missionaries sitting on a bench with 3 people all saying hi to us. It was a little overwhelming but then all of a sudden the dog made the weirdest noise I've ever heard. Sister Eisermann and I burst into laughter and I couldn't stop haha. Sometimes the Lord knows when you need to laugh haha and I definitely needed that! But one of the people that stopped to talk to us actually had interest it was such a crazy moment! 

LESSONS

This week we met with our friend who has recently been shaky! It's been really hard to know how best to help her so we've been praying a lot to know what to do! We had a whole lesson plan ready to go and then when the lesson started we started talking about Fasting randomly and then we had one of the most spiritual lessons I've ever had. It was so cool how the Lord knew exactly what she needed to get her to come to church! In the beginning she told us she didn't know if she could come to church but by the end she told us she wanted to try Fasting and guess what she did it and she came to church!!! It was a huge miracle to me because it shows that this really is the Lord's work and He know how to best help His children! 

We also had a combined lesson with two of our friends on accident but it was so cool and powerful! It was about the spirit and I think it is so cool that as a missionary I get the chance to see people start to understand the love God has for them and the incredible gifts He gives us to help us have the most joy! After that lesson we went and introduced our friends to the relief society and it was so fun to just talk with our friends and ward members! 

DCM

Two of the people in our district are dying next week 😭 it's kinda crazy to me that missions will actually end but it's really making me realize that I'm so lucky I have a lot more time to grow and get a front row seat to God's work!!

This week Sister Eisermann and I found this week when trying to guess what would happen this next week.

Alma 5:48 I say unto you, that I know of myself that whatsoever I shall say unto you, concerning that which is to come, is true; and I say unto you, that I know that Jesus Christ shall come, yea, the Son, the Only Begotten of the Father, full of grace, and mercy, and truth. And behold, it is he that cometh to take away the sins of the world, yea, the sins of every man who steadfastly believeth on his name. 49 And now I say unto you that this is the order after which I am called, yea, to preach unto my beloved brethren, yea, and every one that dwelleth in the land; yea, to preach unto all, both old and young, both bond and free; yea, I say unto you the aged, and also the middle aged, and the rising generation; yea, to cry unto them that they must repent and be born again.

So I guess I just want to bare my testimony that this is why I'm in Taiwan!! To help all people know that Jesus Christ lives!! Because He lives we can have the biggest joy and blessings that we cannot even fathom! 

Sorry this is too long hehehe 😅  BUT I LOVE YOU ALL DONT FORGET IT!! DONT EVER FORGET YOU ARE LOVED AND SO IMPORTANT!!
