A Field of MIRACLES

{ The Connecticut River that divides VT and NH is literally in our backyard. }

PURE JOY

that is what a mission is.

THE GOSPEL IS EVERYTHING!!!!! To some people it is their only source of hope. I want to bring it to everyone so that they can find joy.

there is no better sight than what you see when people realize that there is a Father in Heaven who LOVES YOU more than anyone on earth.

When you testify of God's love for us, you feel it, then you feel it for your investigators, then THEY FEEL IT because YOU LOVE THEM!!

The Lord is blessing me with love. I can feel it. I wouldn't normally love strangers this much. It's cool to be a part of.

I never before realized what a blessing my membership in this church was, and how it's all about finding joy in life. The Restoration is proof that God loves us, how could He leave us stranded? 

I have witnessed MIRACLES this week!! One of our investigators moved out of her boyfriend(ish)'s house and even though she is now homeless, is putting forth the faith that God will prepare a way. She has decided to move to Utah where she will begin a future for herself. It's amazing to watch it all align. Her visiting teachers visit her and felt prompted to tell her that she needed to move (after she had made the choice) from this guy who really isn't good for her and who treated her horribly. She knows that God will prepare a way, AND HE IS. Jobs in Utah are lining up, apartments are coming into place. Miracles are happening BECAUSE SHE IS ACTING ON HER FAITH!!!!!!! 

Faith = VERB= ACTION

That's the formula for a miracle. Faith + obedience always = Miracles

When we do our part, the Lord will always do His. ALWAYS. 

This gospel is a blessing. Our membership is a KEY TO HAPPINESS. When we see that Jesus Christ has made it possible for us to LIVE ETERNALLY by taking upon Himself the sins of the world, we start to realize how much He loves us. There is power in his love.

THE HOLY GHOST IS STRAIGHT UP POWER!!!!!! Tap into it. USE IT. It is God's GIFT to us to help us return to Him!!! We can receive revelation and inspiration as we are obedient, and the Lord often does so through the holy ghost. 

We got a new mission president today. Probably the craziest day thus far. The Lord is stretching my patience. Learning to LISTEN TO NEW ENGLANDERS who talk about WHO KNOWS WHAT haha! After probably the most frustrating lesson I've ever had, my companion and I walked out feeling pretty down on ourselves. ALL BAD. We went to a baptism afterward and PRESIDENT STOKER WAS THERE!!! I turned around and there he was. Definitely not how I pictured meeting him! Still, it was really good. We pulled ourselves together and introduced ourselves. It was scary! I think he'll be a good one though, he seemed really nice and I can't wait to get to know him better.

I love personal study. I love it I love it I LOVE IT!! I love seeing how I use it throughout my day, it always prepares me for events that follow. I wish we had more time even! Crazy!

Maple syrup here is amazing. A guy from the ward gave us some straight from his trees. I pretty much drink that stuff. It's so good. I love the food out here! SO FRESH!! I pour maple syrup all over my Ben and Jerry's ice cream. I soak my blueberry pancakes in it. SO GOOD.

I wish I could give you a slightest insight as to how much has happened. There's so many blessings that happen when people want to have the gospel in their life.

WILLIAM SHOUT OUT TO YOU FOR FINISHING YOUR PAPERS!!!!!!!!! YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE YOU GOT YOURSELF INTO!!!! Wish I could be there to hear your blessing! I love you so much!!

 love you all so much!! WRITE ME I have more time to write letters.

-Funny Moments-

We got pulled over last Sunday. In VT you have to have a front plate on your car, ours didn't. We were let go with a warning.

Sister Fuller called the mission office to get another plate. 

He told her he sent us two, but we couldn't find the other one. He told us to look to see if we screwed the two together on the back. 

Sure enough we unscrew the back plate and two pop off! Hahaha!

We felt like the biggest idiots! So funny!
