MLM

My testimony of Jesus Christ has impacted me more than anything and I love Him. I've devoted so much time striving to follow the prophets counsel to learning and studying about His Atonement weekly and it's changed my life. Truly all that is unfair is made right through the Atonement of Jesus Christ. His infinite Atonement has changed me. My testimony of Jesus Christ has been strengthened by the Book of Mormon more than any other Book. I add my witness to Joseph Smith when he said the Book of Mormon is the most correct of any book and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by it's precepts than by any other book. That is true. I know it is and my testimony of that will never change. Reading the example of Alma the younger in Alma 36 and seeing the joy that is brought to him through repentance and change reminds me of the powerful Atonement that was made so we can change and be freed from sin and sorrow. I feel joy everyday. I truly love serving the Lord and helping all my brothers and sisters come to the fold. Truly there is one fold and one Shepard and I know it's through Christ. I am converted to Christ, that will never change. That is why I came and stayed out here, because I love Him! There has been so many times where I feel so inadequate and make mistakes but I know through His Atonement that all things are possible. He makes all the difference!! I testify that miracles have not ceased. Gods hand is in every aspect of this work. He fulfills his perfect work through imperfect people. This Church is true. That'll never change. God is good. We are His children. Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world. The Book of Mormon is true. I am a witness and this is my testimony! 

Diana ( dee - on - a ) got baptized! She was so excited to make a covenant with God. While she was receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost I looked up at her. Her eyes were closed tightly and she had a grin on her face with a tear going down her cheek. I'll never forget that. Right after her baptism she met with the bishop to get her temple reccomend and we got to go to the temple the very next day! The sun was not in our favor for pictures, but it was a very memorable day! Diana, after her baptism, invited her Uber driver to church!!!! A new-member legend. 

I'm so grateful for the MLM! So many amazing missionaries out here have changed my life! Serving a mission was the greatest decision Ive ever made. It not only changed me but also saved me. I will never forget the things I've seen, felt and heard out here. 

I LOVE YOU ALL 
Thanks for all the support!! 
See you on WEDNESDAY (:

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...

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...
