Chapter 21: Little Miracles!

Happy Tuesday everyone! I hope that you all had a fabulous week. 


One really cool miracle from this week is that we decided to go knock by this media referral that wasn't interested. We saw a house with their lights on, and we were able to talk with the man who answered the door. He wasn't interested in a message, but he asked if we had a leaflet or brochure. So we gave him a Book of Mormon! We are planning on going back in a few weeks to see if he has read anything from it. It was such an awesome little miracle! 


We were also able to have dinner with a part member family this week, and it was a really sweet experience. The message that we decided to share was about how faith can bring miracles, and the mom, who is a nonmember, shared an incredible story with us all about a miracle she had seen. It was such a powerful experience, and I felt the Spirit. 


Another really great thing that happened this week is that we have a new friend we are kind of teaching! She is the mother of a member in our ward, and she is so sweet. We invited her to read the introduction to the Book of Mormon, so everybody keep Susan in your prayers that she will have the desire to learn more. 


Spiritual Thought: "Wherefore, I shall give commandment unto my seed, that they shall not occupy these plates with things which are not of worth unto the children of men." (1 Nephi 6:6) 
I came across this verse a few days ago, and I absolutely loved it! It tells us that everything that is written in the Book of Mormon is of worth to all of us. I know that I have found so many answers to questions and so much peace as I have read the Book of Mormon. 


Have a wonderful week everyone! Let me know if you have a verse that you love from the Book of Mormon. Love you all! 


Love, 
- Sister Willie

Chapter 66: Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone!! I hope you all had a wonderful day!  We had transfers last week, and my new companion is Sister Hailstone! She is also from Utah, and she is literally so sweet. I have already loved serving with her and experiencing her kind and thoughtful spirit. I am excited to serve with her this transfer, and I know that we will see miracles. And another little fun fact is that this transfer is 7 weeks long, and it is sadly my last transfer which feels so unreal to say. But I am excited to work hard in Glendoveer with Sister Hailstone!  This week, we have been trying to meet with our friends so Sister Hailstone can get introduced to them. And we have had some really amazing lessons with them. We had a wonderful lesson with our friend Mary, and we were able to find out a few of her concerns. Then she came to church on Sunday with her son! It was such a miracle and I am excited to continue to teach her and her son about the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  On Thursday...

Chapter 16: Saturday P-Day!

Hey everyone! I was at the Visitors' Center on Tuesday, so I have the rest of my P day today! Since it has been so long, I don't really remember what has happened, but I will share some highlights.  We have a new person that we are teaching! His name is Cooper and he is so cool! Sister Davis found him on exchanges so the first time I met him was at a scripture study group. He is interested in learning more, and we gave him a Book of Mormon!  Also, we stopped by our friend Brian's and we brought one of our members with us and they really hit it off! Hopefully, he will come to church now that he knows somebody. We are keeping our fingers crossed!  Another cool experience, we had a lesson with a super sweet older lady who is the mom of a member. She isn't interested in joining the church, but it was nice to talk with her and learn more about her beliefs. She said we could come back and visit again, so that is awesome!  Spiritual Thought: I am so excited we get to study ...

Chapter 61: Beaverton --> Gresham

Image
Hello everyone! I hope you have all had a great week! We had transfers this past week, so I had to say goodbye to all of our friends and ward members in Beaverton and Summerlake. It was bittersweet, but I am so grateful for all the relationships I have made serving in these two wonderful wards.  I am now serving in Gresham in the Glendoveer ward!! I am companions with Sister Webb! She is super awesome and I am really excited to serve with her. Gresham is on the opposite side of the mission from my last area, so it is really different. But I know that this is where the Lord needs me to be and I am looking forward to all the people I will meet and serve!  I have already been able to meet quite a few of our friends and have lessons with them. Our friend Mary is so sweet, and we were able to have a really good lesson with her about the sacrament and baptism. She has the desire to be baptized, so we are hoping to help her make her first covenant with God soon! We had two lessons wi...
