Hey all this week went like this: ๐Ÿƒ‍♀️๐Ÿƒ‍♀️๐Ÿƒ‍♀️

And then it was over!!!

And honestly that is how this email will be!
๐Ÿง‹sister Henderson decided she likes brown sugar milk with boba! And its delicous
๐Ÿ”„I got to go on exchanges with Sister Ekins! She is too sweet
๐Ÿƒ‍♀️ we ran on the river trail and I learned it goes all the way from shenkeng to daxi which are both of my areas!! Bucket list for sure!!
๐ŸŽถ they made a latter day vibes playlist on sacred music app
๐ŸŒŽ our friend who weve been meeting with since July doesn’t live in our area
๐Ÿ› they were gassing out the cockroaches of sewers so I saw fifty in three minutes! I still have not recovered
๐Ÿช we had a cookie making activity! Yum yum

 The biggest highlight was zone conference where we learned all about commandments! We learned to replace ๆฒ’ๅ•้กŒ -> ๅคชๅฏๆƒœ or no problem -> what a pity! Because there have been so many times my friends are not keeping a commitment and I say no problem in fear of offending them! but there really is a problem because keeping commandments brings the most happiness!!! And the most freedom!! And brings you closer to God! 
Mosiah 2:41 And moreover, I would desire that ye should consider on the blessed and happy state of those that keep the commandments of God. For behold, they are blessed in all things, both temporal and spiritual; and if they hold out faithful to the end they are received into heaven, that thereby they may dwell with God in a state of never-ending happiness. O remember, remember that these things are true; for the Lord God hath spoken it.

A quote my mission president loves is this:

When obedience ceases to be an irritant and becomes our quest, in that moment God will endow us with power. President Ezra Taft Benson

I have seen this to be true in my life and seen it change other peoples! And I know itll change yours!! So go out there and choose to follow the commandments! And He who loves you more than you know will bless you more than you can imagine!!

Byeeee

  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...
