It was a pretty good week! We got to go to lots of fun meetings with a lot of missionaries, we got to go to the temple, we got to eat lunch with our Recent convert, Juli, she just called and asked us if we could, we got to draw LOVE=plan of salvation on sidewalk to help spread the word, so yeah it was a good week, Juli, even gave me 3 cans of Dr. Pepper! :) <3 She knows me!
Oh, also, we got to feed horses hay, this week! So fun!!! We got to ride on the back of the hay trailer bed! So fun! Sister Coffey, my companion, and I (mostly all her because I didn't want to hit or kick the pigs) got to drive (heard) 2 lost pigs around! I died laughing because it was so funny! :P haha I wished we could have gotten it on video! :P Oh, another cool thing! We are surrounded by farmers and so we were given 2 big bags of yummy fresh picked cherries, the best ever! :) <3
It was an adventurous week! We've done lot's of finding and we hope something will come of it, but it's great! Keep our chin up!
Endure to the end! Never assume you can do it alone. :) It's all in his timing!!!
I love you all!!!!

Letter 6-28-17
This week we got to go to the temple today! :) So beautiful and peaceful! So what I needed! Just a rest of mind.
Yesterday, we fasted, the whole Pasco zone, to find people to teach and baptize. Yesterday, since we were on exchanges for a day, I was with Hermana Stewart and we got to find 4 potential investigators and we got to hand out 3 Book of Mormon! So awesome! That's the most we've handed out in one day! :) I was so proud! We even knocked on a lady's door and she let us right in and we taught her the Restoration. :) It was pretty awesome! :)
I also found out, that my blood is not only good, but 'REAL GOOD':P haha I took a blood test to find out if anything was wrong, and it all came back fine! :) So now, they took another vile and are doing some type of geno/DNA test and see if there's anything missing or not working there. :) Wish them luck! I don't know if it's better that nothing is wrong, or finding that there is something wrong and giving my med's to live on for the rest of my life? :P Anyways, it doesn't get in the way of missionary work, we are out every day, after lunch time to 9. :)
So I've had the opportunity to start reading the Book of Mormon again on my mission. The goal is to get to be able to read it 3 times on my mission. :P I'm now in Jacob 5 :) The Book of Mormon is amazing!!! We get to study it for an hour every day! Sometimes I think, well, all the time I think, it's not long enough, but then I think back of how lucky and awesome it is to have 1 full hour of personal study!!! If you haven't studied the Book of Mormon, I would invite you to do so. It WILL change your life! It truly is amazing!
I love you all and hope you have a great week! :) <3

Letter 6-19-17
This week I learned that there is a lot of stuff I need to do to become humble like Jesus Christ, and others as well, but right now, I'm going to work on being humble. I need to start leaning on Him and trusting in Him and what he or His servants ask of me to do.
A miracle this week was planning a lesson to teach to a member in the ward and we planned to read with her Alma 40 but I felt prompted to flip a couple pages before and I saw Alma 38. I just looked over what I had highlighted before and saw that this was a good chapter, so we went with it. While we were in the lesson, all of us had personal revelation! It was awesome! We replaced 'son' with 'daughter' and made it personal and, was it a blessing! I invite you all to read that chapter and make it personal. I also invite you to study you scriptures like that every day, it can and does make
Our area is doing great! Even though we had to drop our on dates, because they didn't come to church and we couldn't meet with them, we still had/have the faith, that we will find. :) There is great potential here in Snake River ward. :)
I love you all and hope you have a good week! :) Keep you head held high! :) Heavenly Father and I and many others love you!

Letter 6-12-17
So this week, I got another chance to hear from Elder Andersen and shake his hand. Once in the MTC and the other on my mission! :) We had two missions combined to see him speak as well as two other General Authorities. :) It was awesome! I also got to see our Elder Brother, Elder Worthen at this meeting! It was so good to see someone from my MTC family! District 41D!!! He's doing great! Stayed in one area for 6 months, moved to another area, but still in Richland, WA. Found out he broke his foot walking, but he's doing well. :)
Some things that I learned from Elder Andersen is that I need to be patient. If things don't come right away, that's okay. :) I also learned that we need to nurture our faith the we already have. Don't just give up because your faith isn't as big as someone else's faith, if you take care of it, (CPR) church, pray, read, it will continue to grow, no matter how fast or slow it is. :)
Then, we taught a less active family, that's trying to become active again, on Sunday because they didn't show up to church. And it was such a cool experience to bear strong, simple testimony to them about how church attendance really can help change your life for the better. We watched a Mormon message video called "the music of the gospel" and how it's important to not just go through the motions, but to know why you are doing it. :) It was a great lesson, the Spirit was strong and in return it helped build my testimony. :)
Then we had a lesson with one of our investigators David, at the church and we first went over the questions he had about the WOW and the Restoration then we ended it with some video's about the Atonement. I would advise you to watch them, because they are amazing and faith building! They are called "For God so loved the world" and think about what is the Atonement? "You will be freed" and think about how the Atonement can and will help you over come Satan and his temptations? and "Reclaimed" think about how can Jesus Christ's Atonement change you?
I love you all and hope you have a beautiful awesome week! <3 :)
P.S. the picture is me "spreading the WORD" to everyone! :)

This last Saturday, we were able to witness our investigator, Juli, get baptized and confirmed! <3 :) It was a wonderful experience!! <3 She smiled so big when she came up, out of the water! So lovely!
The picture of the plan of salvation was from last Sunday from a fireside that we went to! I thought and still think, that having the plan of salvation spell out LOVE is AMAZING!!! I love it so much!!! it's so cool!!! So Missionaries and friends, here's a cool and fun way in remembering the Plan of Salvation!!!! <3
Transfer calls came this morning and guess what?! My companion and I are both staying! We were so happy and it was an answer to a lot of peoples prayers in the ward. :)
Here is a link that you must watch! It is so cute a funny! <3 These children bible video's are the best and cutest things ever!!!! <3 They make you tear up, they make you laugh, they make you think and reflect on Jesus Christ, they help you to teach simply, and the make you smile, the most important things in life. :)
