Sister Cheyenne Skinner: 7/15/24

 NO Q!! 👍🌻🥸


You know in the Book of Mormon how it says occasionally how they couldn't write down everything that happened? Here's an example!


Words of Mormon 1: 5 Wherefore, I chose these things, to finish my record upon them, which remainder of my record I shall take from the plates of Nephi; and I cannot write the hundredth part of the things of my people.


Well 這是這樣子! That's exactly what happened this week and I don't think I can write a hundredth part... but I'll try! Feel free to not read all of this haha🩷


WE GOT TO GO TO FSY!!!!

Okay this was one of the craziest miracles!! All of the youth in Taiwan got together and had FSY. There was over 600 youth there from all over Taiwan. About half of us  Gaoxiong missionaries got to go and we sang to them haha and then did some activities with them! Each pair of missionaries were in charge of 20 youth and GUESS WHAT!! When we went to go meet our 20 youth the FSY leader was Daxton Lin somebody that Calianne served with in Taoyuan! AND THEN the youth that is in Caliannes ward RIGHT NOW who Calianne was with when she was baptized was IN MY GROUP!!!  It was so crazy and I felt so powerfully that God was aware of us!! So cool to realize that the other Sister Skinner isn't too far away from me❤️


SISTER PRADO LEFT US!!

So we had transfers this week and Sister Pardo finished her mission! But they didn't have enough missionaries to fill us back up so they just put us in a Trio! And it's been INSANE. We had so many lesson as the Yongkang missionaries are also supposed to help the English branch. So we got to teach with Sister Agape while we spoke English and she spoke in Tagalog! It was crazy and so so cool that the gospel can be taught and the spirit can be felt in every language! I never would have guessed before my mission how important the Philippines would become to me but being companions with Sister Agape is so so cool!!


Anyway after we got made into a trio honestly it felt like a huge burden was dumped on my back haha. We were now in charge of two wards and helping one branch and even though the two wards will combine soon it was stressful! It's also hard being in a trio and trying to balance everybody out and finish Sister Ashtons training! BUT the Lord's got our back! On Wednesday night I asked for a blessing and I didn't tell Elder Meacham why I wanted a priesthood blessing but it was so so so crazy because as soon as he started speaking I really knew that God was completely aware of me as every single one of my thoughts, doubts, and worries was addressed. As this week went on and we tried to survive the Lord really blessed us and we did survive all of the crazy lessons we had!


SO!! I hope you all know that there is a God out there!! He loves you SO SO SO SO MUCH!!  He will give you strength but dont be afraid to ask for it!! 大家加油！❤️ 


I LOVE YOU❤️

  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...
