Springville 7th Ward Relief Society

  Kia ora, this week will probably be a shorter email becuase my last P day was only like 4 days ago. Anyways, we can get right into it. - Wednesday we went to the temple, it was good to see the other missionaries and also feel thr spirit at the temple. If you havent gone this christmas season you should go. Also the ice cream after was tasty. - english class Wednesday night was super fun. Lots of ppl brought snacks so we all had a good time - thursday we had a nice dcm. - we knocked some random doors and we were led by the spirit to a less active samoan family and also a phillipino couple that we were able to teach to - at Brownies that night we watched and general conference talk after we ate. We chose a random one called 'Beauty for ashes' by Kristen Yee oct 2022. It was a super good talk and it turned out to be just what Brownie needed to hear. The spirit let us to helping her out with just what she needed so that was cool - friday we had a nice meal with cristine and anton...

  Christmas Time is Here Merry Christmas 大家 or 聖誕節快樂 big fam Its getting pretty serious Christmas is in t minus very soon and I hope you all are soaking up every moment! As for me and my house (in Taiwan) it's a whole different vibe! There's Christmas decorations everywhere but very few nativites and there's parties and music but very few people understand the reason that this holiday is the most wonderful time of the year is Jesus Christ! Or rather they do but they know very little about why a little boy named Jesus was born 2000 years ago is the most happiest thing ever! And on top of all of that they have to work and go to school ON Christmas! But let me tell you about all of the best Christmas moments I have had in the past couple weeks! 🎵singing Silent Night in Chinese~ping an ye~and it was slowly sung and the spirit was there 🍪seeing Christmas Sugar cookies in the middle of a long finding session and going in and buying them while inviting the owner to church 🎅a wh...

  MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!   I'm sending this out kinda late, but hopefully I can help spread a little christmas light:))  ✨🌟✨ SO! for anyone who didn't know, for a while now I've been working on a project.  The idea was to make homemade stockings and fill them with presents for those who were in need.  I came up with the idea in octoberish and the idea had been knocking around in my brian for a little while.  I was first planning on it being a small project.  A way for me to serve and connect with a sister who was not physically capable of doing much.  But of course as always seems to be the case with me, I eventually blew it out of proportion lol.  I seriously could not have done it without all of the help and support I received. So a big THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to everyone who helped in any way!!  Everyone who donated time, materials, or money, I have to tell you that you were the hand of God for me.  I was very st...

  ¿Misionero español? Photos📸 https://photos.app.goo.gl/TQ33C4d8unDGQ4xA6 Kia ora hoas and whanaus. No im not a spanish missionary, but I got to speak it a little this week. Hope yous are all doing well and excited for the christmas season. Right now I am still waiting for the summer sun to come out, its been pretty rainy the past few days here in NZ. Anyways, heres the week. - tuesday morning we played some uno at craigs while we talked about politics and the one world order or something like that. One of craigs favorite phrases is "watch and pray". Craig does a lot of watching of whats going on in the world, but we tried to help him realize that the "pray"ing part of that phrase is more important. We invited him to pray about church and he said ya, so we will see how that goes. - Tuesday we also had dinner with stanleys fam. They are super nice and we had a mean feed. I just wish stanley was more into the gospel lol. - Wednesday we had our first dcm as a new tra...

  Oranges 🍊 HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!! This thanksgiving we celebrated by going to a lot of our members and friends house and dropping off thanksgiving cards! It was really cool to see the miracles that came from it!!  On Saturday this week before going finding we prayed that we would be able to make one person's day better so we started going finding and man I'm never gotten more dirty looks in my life!! It was really hard not to get discouraged but then we went to a park and a dog ran towards us and when the owner got to us she was crying! She told us that she was super sad because of the way some people had treated her and her dog. After talking to her for a while and telling her God sent us to her she told us she felt so much better! It was so cool how God really was aware of her and that we really can be tools in His hand to help others! ALSO you know that scene in The Man Who Knew Too Little and how he runs over all the orange traffic cones? Well I've always wanted  ...

  I have not given up I am so grateful for the birth of my Savior and that every December we get to celebrate it!! Send me all your favorite ways to celebrate Christmas! 🎄🤶🎅🌲 But this week was Thanksgiving and I also want to express my thanks to God because wow this week eas miracle filled! And if I havent said it before Im going to say it now! GOD IS SO GOOD!! This week was oh so full of tender mercies! The verse that says oh how great your joy in bringing one soul to repentance in D&C 18:16 was very real! 🌻One of them included friend we used to teach who I think about often, and feel like I failed her. She hasn't really been responding to us and I wasnt sure what I could to help! But God being who he is had a perfect plan we went to Starbucks because it was BOGO (because the baseball team won) and standing next to me was a girl I though was that friend! Naturally we followed her and when I got out the courage to call put her name it was her! She didn't set up with us...

  I may be a ZL but I'm no Moses Oh hi everyone I guess it's been a second since I've sent one of these...  I love you all !   This transfer is only 5 weeks and it's flown by !  My last comp went back to lille and my new comp is one of my besties from the mtc, sœur Hyde !! Sœur Broderick and I did our last weekly planning together in paris and it was so cutie. We did our shopping and cleaned the appartment before sœur Hyde came butttttt she didn't have a very warm welcome because the night after she got there our power went out mid-videocall lesson. It turned back on after like 45 minutes but then the next day our water turned of and we thought it was no big deal and it would turn back on soon but after a couple days of no showering.... we were running out of options. We bought water so we weren't thirsty but trying to keep our dishes clean and showering was almost impossible lol.  Almost a week later it was fixed by MOSES. he tapped his staff and voilà...
