Hello!! I haven't sent an email out all transfer, so here are some quick updates!  - About 3 weeks into the transfer 4 Sister companionships got switched around, so now I'm with my MTC companion Sister Messick!!! It has been so fun getting to teach with her again! I learn so much from her everyday.  - Sister Messick and I have 100 DAYS LEFT. We decided to make a few goals... one of them is no sweets for 100 days. No ice cream, candy, cake, cookies etc. We're two weeks in and it has been the most challenging thing haha pray for us!  - I turned 23 on October 9th! - General Conference was SO good. Go watch/listen/read. JESUS IS COMING  - Fall in Michigan >>>> - The Detroit Temple is marvelous! - Marshall is such a cute lil family town and we have seen so many miracles especially these last two weeks.  - I cannot teach about The Restoration of The Church without crying.  There is so much more I want to say but I'm short on time and I will put more e...

Hi!!! I have spent an amazing 5 weeks in Petoskey. There are people down in Marshall that the Lord wants me to meet, so this is going to be a short email, because I still have quite a bit of packing to do!  So much good happened this week. Sister Worm and I got to sing in sacrament meeting again! We sang Peace In Christ! ( linked below) We had one of the BEST lessons on Tuesday with our friend, Clint. In the middle of our lesson he stopped us and said "I'm sorry I just need to say this... you both have the love of Christ in you. I can see it, and I can feel it." I couldn't stop smiling. My heart was full.  We got to meet Johnny's brother who had the cutest lil puppy! We sat and answered his questions about dinosaurs and God's creations! Alma 30:44 > Sister Nixon put my hair in curlers last night. I might have shed a tear or two, man those hurt. I think I got 3 hours of sleep.  We got to serve lunch at the Salvation Army community lunch!!! Mosiah 2:17 servin...

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...

Friends and family!!!  I'm so happy to be back in Michigan.  I keep having moments where I stop and realize how much the state of Michigan means to me. I found my Savior, Jesus Christ in this great state. I have come to know him. I have come to love Him. I have come to trust Him.  The Lords hand was very apparent in the work this last week. Sister Wehrmister and I got to witness a lot of miracles. Thursday afternoon, we made 7 friends while knocking in this one apartment complex. I have never met so many people looking for answers to their questions! It was such a powerful day getting to testify, one door after another.  ☆Things I've learned☆  John Kintz is the coolest guy I know. ( pics below)  Petoskey has better beaches than Cheboygan. Missionaries can't shoot guns ):  Walking across the Makinac bridge will WREAK ur legs #10milesneveragain Faith doesn't make things easy, it makes them possible. I get emotional teaching children about the Gospel. Som...
