Nov. 13, 2024 -- (No) Trespassing

Salem, MO 

Nov 7 - 13, 2024 

Hello!! Let me explain the events that led to my email title. We were tasked with feeding Sister Morton's cats while she was gone at the Hospital, and when we showed up... the key didn't work. We could hear MissyAnns cry through the door, but there was nothing we could do. Nothing except for breaking in😂 

So yesterday afternoon we found ourselves climbing into the dark cellar covered in water and probably holding a host of possums. And pushing the door above our heads open with all our might, we found ourselves in the closet. Felt like another Indiana Jones movie, but you better believe that cat got saved🫡

Highlights!
•     Sister Morton and Brother Ecoff and John Wayne have all started coming to church!! I've mentioned these members in past emails, but I am SO excited they are being welcomed back.
•     Jo decided to be baptized on January 3rd!! It's a little ways out but she wanted to do it with the new year, and specifically on her anniversary so that significant day could be remembered forever!
•     Finished painting John's walls green! It turned out pretty great, and we have had some really good religious discussions with him up there.

This week we have had a lot of mission meetings focused on baptism and it has grown my testimony so much. Baptism for remission of sins and the Gift of the Holy Ghost really is the most joyful step and the most wonderful blessing. This is the why behind what every little thing we teach and invitation we extend. We've tried to bring it up in every discussion and the spirit has been so strong❤️🌊

Love and Mizpah!

Centerton, AR May 16 - 22, 2024 Ian got baptized this week!!😆 It was such a special day for him, and he had great support from the Deacons and the ward. I am SO excited for him and his family🩷 Highlights! •     Got to back to my last area, Har-Ber, for zone Conference and saw our sweet member Jeanne! •     Got to talk to the sweetest single dad, Alex, out smoking meat with a pretty crazy contraption. He got emotional at the end, and told us to come back in 6 months after his surgery so he could sit down and talk with us more:) •     Nothing brightens my day more than hanging out with kids at member dinners! It's not every day that you learn about the "Wing Claw Bird", and are waved goodbye by a dancing princess. Quote for you: "I'm glad I'm not a bovine" - Bishop Hoyt We got to help Wyatt, and a few other recent converts learn about their family history and prepare family names to take to the temple. Shout out to Sister Morton, it is s...

Mar. 13, 2024 -- Golden Hour🙌

Centerton, AR  March 7th - 13th This week Wyatt was baptized!! What an incredible day. He bore his testimony at the end and shared his story. The spirit was so strong, and it is clear that God has great plans for him. The next day he received the greatest gift for his birthday, the Gift of the Holy Ghost😊 It was so cool to see the proud faces of the brothers Wyatt has met as they watched him make this step. They loved him as soon as they met him, and so many were quick to invite him to dinners and gatherings. It is never to late to be a missionary. Highlights! •     Got to be involved with a service organization called Sleep in Heavenly Peace, where they make beds for kids who don't have them. The turnout was huge, and it was so cool seeing everyone work together for such a good cause! •     As a missionary I've grown a greater appreciation for 1. daylight savings time, and 2. pull through parking •     Immediately after Wyatt was confi...

Feb. 28, 2024 -- Where's Gary

Centerton, AR  Feb 22 -28, 2024 While I may not have any crazy stories to share, this week - and every week - is full of tiny little miracles. Some people might call them coincidences, but I know they are miracles:) Tiny miracles/Highlights! •     After our visit, our friend Prakash drove to a neighbors and we sat in the car outside of his house for a good while planning where to go next. Suddenly Sister Thayn notes we should probably go before he gets back, and no joke as soon as I start driving his headlights turn the corner😂 The timing was crazy. •     Couldn't find my wallet, until the next morning when someone had left it untouched on our windshield. •     One of our friends is turning his life to God. He had a court case after someone attacked him and texted us right after saying that God told him to forgive his oppressor, and he did. •     Wyatt! We talked about the Word of Wisdom and he is just so humble. He had c...
