Faith Fills The Fount!

Destiny is on date for baptism!! 


A couple weeks ago we had Zone Conference. President Gentile gave an amazing presentation on faith! He taught us that faith is the most important source we have on the earth. He told us to ask ourselves this question- If I am not willing to act, how much faith do I really have? I have been pondering that question for weeks now. 

Shortly after that conference, Sister Wehrmister and I both knew we needed to invite Destiny to get baptized. She's only 13 and she comes to church with her grandma each week. Cece, Destiny's mom, hasn't been to church in several years but she is okay with the missionaries teaching her daughter. Last week, Cece CAME TO CHURCH. It's was a good Sunday. Destiny's getting baptized early October and I can't begin to express my excitement for her. 

We had interviews with our mission President and man, I just adore him. I always cherish my time with him! He reminds me of Jesus Christ. 

We had the most expensive dinner ever with an inactive member in Charlevoix. The burger was good though, I will say. Kym's is awesome and we're hoping to help her get back to church. She's 72 and just went skydiving last week... she's everything I wish to become haha. 

 Reading the Book of Mormon with our cute friend Michelle, always brightens my week. 

We came across this tiny chapel on our way down to Traverse City for District Conference. There was a mini visitors book in the corner and people all over the country have signed it! The chapel is open all day, everyday, for anyone. I love it. Jesus is not a sunday-only topic. 

We have a living Prophet and he turned 100 years old today. I sustain him and I love him. I know he is directed and guided by God and that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is the true church here on the earth.

Miracles In Detroit

Hello friends! So much has happened these last two weeks!!! My companion and I sometimes like to wrestle during our lunch and dinner hours. Some of these fights turn into water fights. Long story short, there was water on the kitchen floor, and we were both sprinting into the kitchen because the best weapon in a water fight is the side sink sprayer. Sister Abegglen slips on the water in the kitchen, and both of her feet flew up in the air, and she fell head first on the floor. We were laughing so hard. Until she thought she was concussed. That wasn't funny. That was a memory I'll never forget. She's all good now, but the bump on her head was insane.  Our mission got approved to go to the Detroit Temple!!! Detroit is outside our mission, and it took a lot of work to get it approved. We got to go do baptisms, and who do I see in the parking lot??! This family that used to be in my ward in Washington!!! I went to girls camp with this girl, and she's now serving a servic...

1 Month Down Already!!

Hi friends!  This week has pulled at my heart strings quite a bit. My oldest sister Kayla and her family live in Midland Michigan, a little over an hour away from Owosso. I had my first zone conference in Lansing, and my mission president INVITED MY SISTER!!! It was such a blessing to see her, even Brody (her husband) and my niece Summer came along. I even got to see Elder Mower who is from my home ward in Washington! The lord knew I needed to see some familiar faces this week. I've been struggling with the adjustment more than I thought I would've. Seeing little Summer come running down the hallway at the church with two flowers for my trainer and I was just the best sight, I almost cried! They took us out to TRH for dinner and like always we all pretty much filled up on the rolls haha. Grateful for my fam! Terry. Oh man this guy. He cracks me up just like my dad! Terry is 60+ years old, his wife, Debbie has been a member her whole life but Terry has not. He started to come to...

Zone Conference x2

This week was so special!!!!! Church yesterday was crazy! People from my old areas came to see me! This whole family from Saginaw came, and the legend himself, Brother Coy, came all the way from Owosso. I couldn't believe it! We had our friend come to church, but he straight up had an ankle monitor on hahaha, we just had no idea! We stopped teaching him :/ We have this newly baptized family that hasn't been to church in almost a month, and they showed up, and Sarah is pregnant and they're struggling with money at the moment. Brother Coy gave them $150, and it was just the coolest thing to witness God's divine timing, yet again on the mission. Brother Coy was supposed to be there yesterday for Sarah and her family. We spent HOURS knocking. It's my favorite thing, but man, it's so so hot and humid. We met this angel, Kathleen. We got to teach her about the great Plan of Salvation. Her husband recently passed, and she was so full of light by the end of our visit, k...
