Life in the Lawton 2nd East!!!

Wow our week was full of miracles! we were able to find a lot of people to teach!

one of my favorites, we were able to teach Eva she is from Germany and she is like 80, she was the sweetest lady ever! She talked about her life, and we were able to teach her a little bit, but we will just go back and see her, she said she is too old to change haha.. but i don't think so haha!

Another miracle, we were able to go on base and see the soldiers on the 24th! with the members and some investigators, they were able to come in a get a little spiritual message and some sugar, ( they were all stoked to get some sugar haha) And we were able to talk to them! it was such a cool experience, especially to hear them sing some hymns! The spirit was so strong there! 

Another miracle we were able to meet with these two sisters and we were able to teach them the plan of salvation! a member had given them a pamphlet, and she invited us to go to institute to where they would be and we went and were able to set a return appointment, and we met with them and in the lesson we were able to teach them how to pray (which is my favorite thing to teach someone) and then we were able to set a baptismal date with them, just because the spirit was so strong in that lesson! It was such a miracle!! i love it here! i love teaching people how to follow Jesus Christ! 

The mission is so rewarding. I love it! 

i also want to share a message of peace 

in John 14 verse 27

peace i leave with you... not as the world giveth give i unto you, let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid! When we keep our eyes on Christ and do simple things each day to remember him and follow him, we are able to be calm in the midst of trials and pain! Keep that in mind this week! i invite who ever reads this to think of one thing you can do to remember Christ each day! 

i love you all! have a great week!

LOVE YOU ALL! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hey ya'll!!! Happy late 4th love you all

Well a lot has happened these past two weeks, a lot of changes, and with the forth of July, all the libraries were closed so we couldn't email last week, but the mission has been going great! being on campus its hard to find people in the middle of the summer, because everyone is back at home with their family until the fall, so we have been teaching a few people and basically just doing a lot of service and talking to random people that we find. It has been really good!

i love the mission!!! 

So we had transfer calls last night and i dint think i was going to go anywhere, but SURPRISE!  i am being moved to Lawton on the military base, this is such a privileged, me and my soon to be companion will be the only set of sister missionaries there.(as far as i know) and i am so excited to meet her! 

miracles happen everyday, EVERYDAY! 

But we got a new mission president, we love him and his family! 

I have been learning a lot each day, Life is hard sometimes, but if we push through it we can always find some light. i find that whenever one tries to be good and to do good, the adversary kicks in and tries to pull us down, so that we cant find happiness, but as we acknowledge our weaknesses and try to do our best, and rely on the only one that can truly help us and truly know exactly how we feel then we can find strength to get through each day! Ether 12:27 ...i give unto men weakness that they may be humble... but all men that humble themselves, and have faith that things can improve and get better if we will rely on Christ, then our weaknesses will become strengths!

its hard to acknowledge our weaknesses, but as we do so, our weak things have the possibility to become strong, if we do our best and leave the rest to the lord! 

i love you all! i am sorry its short, i am alive and well, and i hope all of you are alive and well(: continue to enjoy the simple things! and smile(: 

enjoy the pictures(:
