I Liveeeeee

Hello everyone! 

I am alive and so well. 

I am very sorry its been so long. But I'll catch you up quickly...


I got transfered to Katowice. So for the first time in my six months in country, I have new comps, I am with sister wiener and sister tanner. They are awesome! Sister wiener and I got to welcome sister tanner into country and are training. It has been such a blast with them. Sister tanner loves a good movie refrence and made us power puff girl bracelets... funny enough she gave me the bubbles one, which is something my little cousins use to call me so I thought that was adorable. 

I am in Katowice and it is so much fun here. We have seen some incredible miracles. We got to be apart of a part of our friends baptism a few weeks ago and then the elders friend got baptised last week in the Lake close by. It has been so much fun. But it is so crazy because we get transfer news next week. We don't know whats going to happen. We have one sister leaving the mission so we do know it will be the end of the Trio... we just don't know who. I love kato though. 

I will say.... its 27 degrees out today.... I thought I was going to die. Its so flipping hot. But hey that means freckle seasonnnnn is coming early. 


I love being on a mission. It has definitely changed my life... even if we werent looking from a spiritual aspect... like I... I crochet now..... making baby blankets out here its wild. 


I love the mission though. I love the people, the missionaries, the gospel. It is all just so good. 


It has been so good. It is crazy... next week i hit 9 months...... that is spooky. The elders i came into country with won't let me forget it. Talking already like i am on my dying breath SMH.


Today's spiritual thought, 

Be gracious 

We had an opportunity to visit one of our members. It was a very sobering experience. It just reminded me that every day is not promised. That is definitely a lesson I learned right before coming on my mission, but it was a healthy reminder. It is just so important to be grateful for every moment we are on this planet. I had a good talk with sister roney about this. But it is so important to live our days like we will not get another tomorrow.


So that is why I am writing this email today. I love you all and appreciate you all so much.


I hope you are all doing well and I hope that this week is the best week ever!!! Go enjoy the sun... or the snow ... sorry


I love you!

Week 8

hello! We are almost out of here. We have one week left until we are on a plane to Poland. Learning a language in nine weeks is kind of insane... very overwhelming. Next week will be crazy to be immersed in it. We are all so ready but also not at all hahaha so many mixed emotions. We just want to be able to communicate our message with people. With time and practice it will come.  We had an awesome devotional last night by Elder Nattress! I have so much to say about it. It was focused a lot on how the gospel is so personal and how we can be the best missionaries possible. So as usual... if you want to know more... email me:)  I love it when you guys do! I spent a lot of time with a talk given by Elder Christofferson called "The Love of God". I read and listened to it in both Polish and English... and went through breaking down the grammar in Polish.... I am glad I picked this talk to do that with because it is amazing! which brings me to my spiritual thought.  In this tal...
