Hello everyone! This week was really good! We’ve been able to see miracles all around us. Some highlights... Sister Silver and I felt we should go to our favourite restaurant, "Taco Jesus"... which is strange because we had already gone there this week during exchanges, but we thought, “Whatever, let’s just go.” Was it the Spirit or just our stomachs? Probably just our stomachs. ANYWAYS, we get there, and one of the workers starts talking about how he’s sorry he didn’t come to church last week (we invited him a few weeks ago). Then the other workers started asking questions about church and asked if he could come... and HE DID! I was talking to him after church yesterday, and he asked me why we were there. We explained the funny circumstances that led us there. He looks at me dead in the eyes and says, “I was praying to God that morning to find a church to go to, and this is the first Sunday I’ve had off of work ever.” God truly works in the most mysterious of ways. All in al...

Hello from Poland :) I hope everyone is doing well! This week was really good! We had some incredible lessons and have some amazing friends right now. I love having the opportunity to just teach them and talk with them. It is bitter sweet knowing I'll be on my way home in 15 days... it definitely has caused me to reflect on every moment. I really just can not begin to express my gratitude for serving here in Poland. I am really just soaking in every lesson and every single moment. We were able to teach quite a bit this week and all of them were incredible lessons. Our people that we are teaching right now are all so invested and progressing. One of our friends is getting baptised next week. She has the strongest testimony. Her love for God radiates from her! Her boyfriend is also getting baptised in the next few weeks here! So amazing to see people finding joy in christ. I feel so privileged to be able to hear and see these people's testim...

Dzień dobry!! This week was so busy and fun! We had exchanges with the sister from katowice... it was so amazing. I got to spend the day with one of our new sisters and wow. It was so fun to be her comp for the day! We were able to have such miraculous experiences street contacting... found some amazing people and taught some really fun lessons. It was fun to spend a day teaching in kato again. We got to teach ASIA!!! She is my friend that got baptised a few months ago... that girl is the best! Her and I have some fun plans after the mission together hehe We also had some member lessons this week. One of our Polish members took us out to lunch. It was so fun to talk with her we covered everything from her favourite types of food, Anne of Green Gabels, to temple marriage.... it was quite the convo. It was funny because on the previous Sunday when she heard I was from Canada she was instantly glued at my hip telling me how she really wanted to visit Prince Edward ...

Dzień dobry! This week was so good. We had mission conference This week which was incredible. It was so good seeing all the missionaries I've served with and spending time with them. We got to watch escape from Germany (10/10 recommend)... before which we kicked off the night with a monster with the former office crew. Sister trost, Atkinson, and I gave our final presentation.... od babć... Putting our mission experience into four slides with them was so much fun and honestly just incredible. It is so cool to see where our missions have taken us and how far we have all come and will continue to go because of our experiences here and with the saviour. We were all also able to share our final testimonies... that was far more emotional than I was anticipating... sister trost went first. Instantly sister gliske turned to me and goes "that was a mistake because now you're already gonna be crying by the time you go up"... she was not wrong... I was infact sobbing...

Witam w 2025 roku! This week didn't feel real! We went to Warsaw for a two day Mission conference, December 31st and January 1st. It was so much fun to see everyone and grow together spiritually. Siostra Atkinson, Andrews, and I were asked to give a presentation about what we learned on our mission. I love these two sisters with my whole heart and I am grateful that we have been able to serve the past year and a half together. I've learned so much from them. It is tradition in our mission to give a final testimony at your last zone conference and this mission conference was my last one. As I stood in front of everyone to bear my testimony it didn't feel real. I don't know how I got to this point. It went by way too fast. I bore testimony of my Savior Jesus Christ and how His atonement has changed me this past year and a half. I will probably share more about this at my homecoming so I'll leave you on a cliff hanger until then. I almost got through it without crying...

Dzień dobry! After a good few days I'm back haha! The past week or so has been really good. It also has been a blur. But I'll share the highlights! Last week I was in warsaw with sister trost and eight other missionaries. We went caroling, we did a table in Old Town, and hit midnight mass! We also went to an American families house for dinner... they had all 10 of us over which was insane. Other highlight... Sister gliske split Grzegorz with me... and now I have janusz (this is a sourdough started)... I currently am taking him across the country in a little jar... he is thriving. I love him. Other than that it has been a lot of teaching and finding! I am leaving legnica today which is sad... but had the coolest miracle happen. I get really nervous public speaking but yesterday as I was able to give my last testimony there... I was not even nervous... I cracked some jokes too. God is so good... my jokes... not as good. I got all packed up this morning ...

Dzień dobry! This week was good! It definitely felt like a week that lasted three months... for why I could not tell you. Again we spent a lot of time outside street contacting which has been fun. We always meet some great older ladies. Two this week of note... One kept talking about how anti Catholic she is and how much she loves everyone.... so that was confusing. She really let us know how she felt about a lot of things and kinds of people... it was exciting. She then gave me a kiss on the neck (not the first time this has happened and unfortunately not the last) and a giant hug... you get use to a lot of things while serving a mission... but I can safely say I will NEVER get use to that. The second of note was this lady with a really smelly dog. That poor dog reaked and kept barking if we did not pet it while talking to her owner.... so... there we were petting the really smelly dog. The lady at the end was not interested however she did show us an INCREDIBLE...

what is up?! I hope you all had a great week! Mine was pretty uneventful... we took a trip to Warsaw this week which you know is a goof 15 hour round trip for a one hour apt... so that was great. It was fun though to be back in my first apartment. I love warsaw. A special piece of my heart is there after spending six transfers there. Truly the best six transfers. It was fun to show Sister Pleszczynska around! It was also fun to see sister tanner and sister crook.Being stranded in a city by ourselves is definitely a unique experience so it's really fun when we get the opportunity to spend time with other missionaries. The rest of our week was spent trying to find people to teach! We spent a lot of time outside. Which has been really interesting here in Legnica. They all seem to know who we are here... which has NEVER happened to me before in my mission. These people look at us and quite literally run.... except for the construction workers... we run from them haha...
