This week + was a long one but a good one! We spent the week finding, teaching, serving, and prepping for a baptism! I also went on an exchange to Zebulon so even though the week was a little longer it honestly flew by. But anyways, now for the transfer announcement you've all been waiting for... I'll be ...LEAVING CREEDMOOR :( I'm gonna miss it so much. I love this place and the people in it! I'll also miss the bank building church because nothin is more iconic than that.  I'm also sad to leave my comp Sister Paulsen but she's excited to stay in Creedmoor and train a new missionary!  Even though I don't want to leave (and certainly don't want to pack) I do feel that it is my time to go and experience something new. I have no idea where I'll be going or who I'll be with but I know God will take care of me and it will all work out. My last week was so good because we got to do lots of service! In Zebulon I was able to go with Sister Cutler and the...

Hey ya’ll! I hope it's been a good one! This week has been the best yet here in Creedmoor North Carolina! We have someone “on date!” Our friend Christina is going to be baptized on May 31st and we are so excited to help her get there and to have been a part of her journey! She is a member-referral from 3 years ago. Can you believe it? Her 3 sons were baptized at that time but she hadn’t been able to due to a complicated relationship situation she's in.  But we counseled with our mission President about it and he said she can be baptized!!! It was well worth the ask! We are beyond excited for her! We also had the member who referred Christina to the missionaries there at the lesson (Charlie) when we put her “on date.” It was so precious!! We’re still trying to get a few things ironed out with people in the branch since they have some concerns with the decision. But we have faith that with the help of the Lord everything will work out. Prayers for Christina and her family would b...

Happy Mother’s Day to all the sweet ladies in my life! I love ya’ll so much and hope you had a beautiful day of being celebrated! Here are your virtual flowers :)  I miss my mom so much and am so grateful for her support and the wonderful example of Christlike love she has set for me! This week was a good one! Not super eventful but we did meet some cool new friends! Namely Linda and Garry who we met on Saturday knocking doors. We talked to them for a LONG time. They are the cutest. We also ended up stopping by Kei’s as well and had a lesson with him! He's also a talker so between that and Linda and Garry the day went by fast haha.  We also had exchanges again! So back to Falls Lake I went.  I might as well just leave an overnight bag there haha. It was another good day though! We called up a media referral that they got and ended up setting up a time to give her a church tour later that night! (My second time giving a tour of the Stake Center haha). Her name is Rochelle ...

Hello friends and fam! This week was a good one and it flew by! Just casually but diligently doing the work of the Lord. This week we had awesome lessons with Christina, Pam, and Lily! We were able to teach Pam about how to recognize the spirit which was so so good! We also stopped by and had casual lessons with some of our other friends! Unfortunately Tommy has shingles so we weren't able to teach him and may not be able to for a while. Overall this was a pretty chill week out here in Creedmoor.  EXCHANGE TO FALLS LAKE! That’s right, haha, round 3 exchange to Falls Lake. It was so good this time though. I got to hang with Sister Zameripa! We gave a church tour to this ex search and rescue worker who had all these wild government facts (conspiracies, but he believed them, haha). He also said that “they” didn't want him in any other church besides the LDS church.  So he wanted to learn more about our faith haha. I guess the government is right about one thing cause we're a p...
