Week 58- living my best life

Hey!! Another week here in Georgia!


So I'm now here in Suwanee, Georgia! And let me just tell y'all that I am seriously so happy! My companion is Sister Hendricks from Missouri and shes literally the best. All we do is laugh all the time. My roommates, Sister Brinley and Snell are literally the best ever. Sister Snell's brother and mine actually served together in Madagascar which is fun. Our district is also so amazing. Just so #blessed right now. 

We have the best ward mission leader in the world here in Suwanee. He takes such good care of us. I will never go hungry as long as I'm here. 

We've been meeting so many members with visits and meals and wow this ward is amazing. There is so much work to be done and we are so excited to do it. Sister Hendricks and I also got called as the social media coordinators for our zone so we are PUMPED to get our Facebook page looking so good. 

This ward is holding church so I finally got to go yesterday! It's the first time since March and it was so different but so awesome. It felt like home being back in that building. They had a bunch of high school graduates speak and they did so good! We love working with the youth!

Sister Hendricks also has a friend back home in Missouri named Michael that we have been teaching with the sisters over there and that has been so fun! It's a highlight of my week for sure. 

Probably the biggest miracle of all is Brandon. So back when I was at KSU, I taught this guy named Brandon but when Covid hit and everything shut down, he went back home and he lost contact with the missionaries. So fast forward and I'm now living in the area where he lives! So we called him up and we got to go to lunch with him and play tennis with him later that day. Seriously such a huge blessing. 

I can't even explain how happy I am right now. Missionary work brings so many blessings and so much joy. In Preach My Gospel it says "The Lord will reward and richly bless you as you humbly and prayerfully serve Him. More happiness awaits you than you have ever experienced as you labor among His children." I have definitely found that to be true and I know if y'all go out and share the gospel with others, you'll feel it too. 

Have the best week!
