Up to a little mischief and lots of fun

Oh! Looks like Brother Millard got the sisters back by decorating their car!


Sister Kimball and Sister Felt wrote all over Brother Felt's car with window markers.

It is the greatest work ever !


Oh I love being a missionary. It is seriously the greatest work ever! I am so happy! It's worth all the trials,afflictions, and need for patience.{LOL} To have one hour with one of God's precious daughters to help her come closer to Him. There is no greater satisfaction.

Oh I love being a missionary.


I want you to know that God is very aware of each and everyone of us! He knows you. He loves you! We are sons and daughters of Him.Each day look at what the Lord has done for you each day. See how you have seen His hand in your life.

STAND A LITTLE TALLER


Sister Kimball shared a most amazing story that happened during a discussion with an 18 yr. old young women. " ...than another idea came into my head to tell her about the book,"STAND A LITTLE TALLER" by President Gordon B. Hinckley{a scripture and spiritual thought a day book). I asked if Sister Cullimore had one and she did!! She got it out and Ashley was flipping through it kind of carelessly. I asked her if she would read today's scripture so she did.NOW IT GETS WAY COOL!!!...Aty this point the spirit is strong in the room and than she reads 'January 29 in the book (with the page title MIRACLE OF CONVERSION) '. The scripture reads,'And according to this faith was a mighty change wrought in his heart.'(Alma 5:12) President Hinckley than wrote'There is no miracle of conversion. It is the great process by which those with resposive hearts listen to the teachings and testimonies of missionaries and change their lives, leaving the past behind them, and moving forward into a new life. There is no miracle quite like it in all the world.' After she read that we all just started crying and laughingand stunned. We sat there for the longest time not saying a word. The spirit was incredibly strong. She was in shock;we all were...she was so happy. She said,'I'll never forget this moment.' She just radiated!..It's miraculous to see lives change!..."

I LOVE MISSIONARY WORK

I LOVE MISSIONARY WORK! It does bring me great joy even when it is hard because I know this is the Lord's work and it is His gospel and it is my duty ( as well as all of us) to share the gospel. But not only is it my DUTY, it is my BLESSING and a PRIVILEDGE.

It's beginning to look like Christmas.







Sister Denison and I got a REAL CHRISTMAS TREE !

Guess what we got for Christmas?




Fun footie pajamas!!!! The members really take good care of their missionaries. Thank you!

This Church is true!


The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is Christ's church. We do have a loving Heavenly Father who knows us and loves each and everyone of us. I know tha Joseph Smith saw God the Father and Jesus Christ. I know that through the spirit of revelation,Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon and that it was written for our day. I know that whoever reads it and prays and ponders the Book of Mormon will come nearer to God and will know for themselves that the Book of Mormon is true through the power of the Holy Ghost.

Part of my New Year's resolution

to be truly penitent and a humble seeker of happiness. We know that as we are repentant we are applying the Atonement in our lives, we are being humble and submissive to the will of the Lord. When we are seeking true happiness, we are obedient to what the Lord has commanded and what he will command. We know that obedience to his commandments brings the choicest blessings.

It is going to be a GREAT year !

I know the Book of Mormon was written for our day and can be applied to our lives in any aspect of our lives. We all can see and liken the scriptures to us when we study by faith with an open and prayerful heart. It has been a real source of comfort and peace to know that Heavenly Father loves me and my Savior knows me and knows exactly what I'm going through. I know the Book of Mormon is true, it is the word of God,and was written by prophets in the Americas over 2000 years ago. I know that an ordinary humble young man named Joseph Smith was called by God to restore Christ's Church here on earth again and that God gave Joseph the power to translate the Book of Mormon so we can have a further witness, light and knowledge of the Gospel of Jesus Christ."
