Hi yall!! YAY FOR TRANSFER 6! Time is flying by.  It was sad to say bye to Sister Chan and Sister Georgeson this week:( but it was also so much fun seeing all the missionaries at transfers!! I have made some dang good friends here in the TKM and I love being able to see them. My new companions are Sister Durfee and Sister Emmett! I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!!!! They are seriously the sweetest people ever. I'm so excited for this transfer with them:))) Okay, this week has been kind of crazy. (Don't get freaked out, we are all okay) We got into a car accident this week haha. Not the funnest thing ever. We were sitting at a stoplight and a Cadillac didn't break and just hit us. It was a miracle that the entire back side of our car wasn't destroyed. Me and my companions have pretty bad whiplash and minor concussions but other than that we are all good!! When we pulled over to get all the information, we got talking to the girl who hit us for awhile. We're going to start teachin...

Hi yall!! Let's get into it Transfer Calls were on Saturday night and I'm getting new companions. I'm literally so sad because one transfer with Sister Chan is just NOT ENOUGH. I love her so much. I get to stay in Bearden/YSA and be over social media which I am so grateful for!! I seriously love it in these areas!!:))) We've had some awesome lessons this week where the spirit has been so strong!! I'll tell yall some of my favorite ones we had this week: DOUG!!! Doug is literally so cool. He started reading the Book of Mormon at the beginning of this transfer and now he's in Alma 30! And he actually comprehends the stories haha. He went over the last couple of stories he's read and he legit explained them better that I could have lol. He's been coming to church consistently and he's starting to bring his parents with him!! We are hoping to put him on date soon so please pray for him!! CHRISTIAN!!! Christian is a straight up miracle. He just showed up ...

Hi yall!! It's been the longest fastest week ever. Time is so weird haha.  Lots of miracles are happening here in Knoxville and I'm so blessed to be a part of it:)) our friends Doug and Christian came to church yesterday! They are seriously SO COOL!! Doug brought his parents too!!! We were able to divide and conquer and have three lessons at the same time because of our awesome ward. Sundays are kind of a lot with being at the church from 8:30-6:00 but it's still a party. My favorite part is teaching mission prep to the youth!!! They are all my besties, I love them so much. It's weird that I was in mission prep just a year ago, and now I'm on my mission teaching mission prep to the youth. Time is whack.  Last week we had zone pday and it was SO MUCH FUN!! We played lots of ultimate Frisbee and kickball. Let me tell ya, being 5'2 and not being able to catch doesn't make me the most valuable asset to have on the team lol. But it was still fun. It's always ...

Hi everyone!!! Man oh man there were so many miracles this week and I absolutely loved it!!  Zone conference was this week and it was SO GOOD!! It was all focused on the Book of Mormon and I loved it. The spirit was so strong and I learned a lot:) One of the trainings focused on how Joseph Smith paid the price for the scriptures. He went through so much, just so we could have the church and the Book of Mormon on the earth today. They related this to how we sometimes have to "pay the price" for our own scriptures. We go through experiences and have trials that result in us coming to know that certain scriptures are completely true. For example, the scripture I feel like I "paid the price" to come to know that it's true is 1 Nephi 20:10 10 For, behold, I have refined thee, I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction. Through my experiences, I have come to know that even through my trials, Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father still choose me! So yeah, that's on...
