"Yay it's my Mormon friends!"

Hello!

This week me and Sister Howe had the wonderful opportunity to go and serve women food who come from hard backgrounds. It was amazing to feed them and see how absolutely grateful they were. One lady came in and said, "Oh yay it's my Mormon friends!" Another lady told me she was so grateful because she had enough food to bring home to her children. Another lady insisted that she knew me, and who knows, maybe we were friends up in Heaven! These women were so extremely grateful and they were all such sweethearts. I am lucky to be standing in God's place up here in Edmonton.

Good & Bad News📰

Hello :)

We had another exciting week here in Whitemud Creek! I will start with the bad news...many of our favourite couples in the ward broke up. Me and Sister Howe were so sad!

Bible Bashers and Baptisms

This was such an eventful week! At the beginning of the week the elders called us up and told us they have some solid potentials for us. We met at Starbucks for our lesson and met this YSA couple. They pulled out their bibles and we taught them the Restoration. It was going really well until...the boyfriend started bashing and told us he has read the Book of Mormon and prayed and God told him that he needed to let us know it was wrong. We asked him why is was wrong but he couldn't give us an answer. We kindly finished the lesson and left. The Book of Mormon is too good!

THE NAUVOO🚀

Heyyyy!

I hope you all watched conference and enjoyed it as much as I did! It was amazing and all the talks were so inspired (as usual). I am especially pumped for the temple that is being built in Layton, Utah!

The gift of hands (tongues) is real👐

Hello!

This week we went on a 3 day exchange with the travelling sisters and it was quite fun! For one of the days I was with Sister Hall and we went on the LRT (which is the best way to FIND people). When we go on the LRT we don't usually sit by our companion so I sat across from a YSA girl and asked how her day was. She didn't respond so I asked her again and she looked at me confused and then motioned that she was deaf. I started contemplating about if I should sign to her or not because my sign language is SO rusty. The spirit kept prompting me to sign so I started with the few things I remembered. As soon as I started signing all my worries went away and we had a conversation for almost 40 minutes! At the end she wasn't interested but she was so happy I talked to her because once people find out she is deaf they usually just stop trying. I am so happy I was able to talk to her! The gift of hands (tongues) is real for sure :)

"10/10 would recommend"

Hey there!

After transfers this last week, Sister Howe and I were very glad to be staying together in the wonderful Whitemud Creek YSA ward. 

Colten asked that we teach his friend this week so we met with them and taught him the Plan of Salvation. The lesson didn't go as well as Colten had wanted because his friend was very uninterested the whole time, but he texted us that night to let us know how he thought it went. In his texts to us he said, "I will invite more friends for you to teach, 10/10 would recommend Sister Moon and Sister Howe" (I included a pic for proof because pics or it didn't happen amiright?) That text helped brighten our week and he has continued to invite his friends to take the discussions! It was also an amazing lesson because he testified to his friend and he realized that he has more of a testimony than what he thought! 

Mad Women!

Hello again!

This week was so good but so crazy all in one! I had the craziest day on my mission so far! We had 7 lessons in one day and we were driving around like mad women! 7 lessons may not seem like a lot to some people but I am used to only having one or 2 a week so this was major!

One of the lessons was with one of our investigators on date for April 7th. We taught him the Plan of Salvation and he kept talking about how loved he felt and he kept saying he just felt filled. It was amazing to see his excitement when hearing about this amazing Plan we have!

"We aren't done yet! Tell me a story about Jesus!"

Hello!

We had an absolutely MIRACULOUS week! We had a passover lesson with one of our investigators and at the end we asked him to pray. He enthusiastically said, "We aren't done yet! Tell me a story about Jesus!" It has been so cool to see his excitement for the gospel! We brought this Less active we have been working with to the lesson because he served a mission French speaking and he was able to translate! We also had supper with Colten (this Less active) this week and we shared the Will of God video. The lesson went really well and he texted us the next day and told us he is going to quit smoking because that's what he feels God wants him to do even though the night before he told us he can't see himself quitting!

Be a LIGHT☀️

Hello my wonderful family and friends!

About a week ago, we were tracting and we met a man named Gabriel. He told us it wasn't a great time but he gave us his number. We tried texting and calling him but we didn't have any luck. We decided to stop by him because we had planned to go FINDing around his house. He was home and let us in! He is from Ghana and I was able to talk to him about my trip there and He thought it was so cool! He told us he was meeting with missionaries about a year ago and was almost baptized! We did the Book of Mormon map and he really seemed to understand it. At the end he prayed and thanked God for sending us to him. He said it was so unexpected but he was thankful for it. It was so amazing!

El MunDo eS LOCO

I don't speak Spanish, but as far as I know that means "the world is CRAZY". This is what my companions and I came to realize this week...one of my companions had to go to the doctor this week so while we were waiting we texted a bunch of formers in the phone. By doing this we got 6 appointments set up! MIRACLE. One of them is named Susan and she is an old lady who calls us every night to tell us about her day for at least 20 minutes. She is quite a joy.

Happy Chinese New Year🏮🏯🎎

This week our stake put on a Chinese New Year party and we were able to go with our investigator, Wen Chen! Teaching Wen has been so amazing and so different than anyone that I have taught before. Because Wen and his family came from China he has no religious background. We have had to teach him from square one who God is. This week, we were able to read the Book of Mormon with him and teach him about repentance. As we were teaching him the spirit was so strong! He told us he really liked meeting with us and he was going to go home and repent of the things that he had been thinking about during the lesson.
