We were
knocking this complex one and we were cutting through this pond area and
decided to snap some quick pics since it was pretty. While I was standing there
I got attacked by about 7 ducks and 3 geese. It was terrifying and we left in a
hurry hahah
Hello everyone!
Happy Missionary March!!!!! I hope everyone had a wonderful week! We worked so
hard this week it was crazy but so good! We found another 4 amazing new
investigators and each one was a tiny miracle.
We had our Zone
Conference this week, which was super good. We talked a lot about finding, and
having the faith to go out everyday knowing that Heavenly Father is going to
place people in our path that are ready to accept the gospel. President Lee is
so inspired and the meeting was just what we needed to be motivated to go out
and work the rest of the week. They gave a lot of unique ideas for finding that
don't include knocking doors (which was awesome because that's my least
favorite thing ever) one of the best suggestions was to record you and your
companion teaching a 3 min version of our first lesson, saying our number at
the end, then going to a public place and airdropping it to people! I thought
that was pretty unique haha! Missionary work in the digital age.
All the
Family History cards!! We were pretty excited as you can see
One of the other
finding suggestions was to use Family History cards! We got home from Zone
Meeting and I confessed to Sister G that I had never actually used them
before...so we filled a bunch out and headed out determined to give all of them
away. We didn't have much success and we were getting a little discouraged but
then we met Wakeena!! She let us right in and told us she was really interested
in learning more about her ancestors and starting her Family History! We were
able to teach her briefly and set up a time to come back. It was so cool!
Miracles!
We also were
blessed to go on a tradeoff with our amazing Sister Training Leaders this week!
I got to stay in Arlington with Sister McConnell and we had a blast. We did
some service and visited some less actives and found 2 new investigators!! Yay!
We were leaving a less active members house and there was a family sitting
outside and so we went up and started talking to them. They were a young couple
with two young kids and we were able to share the full Restoration with them.
They were super engaged and had a lot of questions and the spirit was just so
strong as we were teaching them it was amazing!

The Arlington Ward
has dedicated the month of March to missionary work and they kicked it off with
a special ward fast for the missionaries. Almost all the testimonies yesterday
were about experiences with missionaries or how they found the church and got
baptized. It was an amazing meeting and we also had a big ward break the fast after
where we all just ate yummy food and visited! A lot of people brought friends
and it was a perfect opportunity for introducing people to the church! We have
several awesome activities coming up this month where the members can be
involved in missionary work and it's just so exciting! I know we are going to
see some amazing miracles because of the member’s faith!!
Yesterday as we
were leaving our apartment a man was walking down the stairs and he stopped and
said "Hey! So y'all are the Jesus people?!" And we were a little
confused like "uh yeah we are the missionaries...." and then we
realized he was talking about the picture of Jesus that we have on the outside
of our door haha! He told us that every time he walks by and sees it he just
gets so excited because he loves Jesus too haha. It was awesome! We are
definitely the Jesus people.
I love y'all! Have
a blessed week <3
