He is Risen: John the Beloved's Witness of the Resurrection

The Apostle John provides his eyewitness account of the 

last events in the Savior's life and his Resurrection

The Resurrection and the Atonement of Christ are the pinnacle events in the history of the world. The darkness and sadness of Christ's crucifixion did not endure. Christ was resurrected, enabling the resurrection of all mankind. In our lives we will have our dark days, but because of Jesus Christ we can have hope in overcoming our trials and ultimately returning to live with our Heavenly Father.

My bad..my bad

So I'm sorry that I haven't emailed in a while, haha so I'm just going to give a quick update on what happened In the last little bit. Last week we had a all mission conference for Christmas, and it was awesome to see everybody. The conference focused a lot on the importance of keeping the Sabbath day holy. Haha which on a mission is relatively easy, but the world is becoming desensitized to the concept of religion in general, and Satan is going to tempt us within our comfort zone, which means he is going to slowly persuade us to do things that aren't always necessarily bad...but we could do something better. The leaders of the church have been stressing this topic so strongly; we need to be prepared to do everything we can to observe the Sabbath day. Anyway the conference was so amazing.

Mission Conference at 
Independence Visitors' Center

At the beginning of this week me and Sister Maxwell were able to find quite a few new investigators, and on Monday night a family from the Ward had a Christmas family home evening that they invited a few other families in the Ward to. And every family brought something to share, weather it was a tradition, story, gift or musical number. The spirit was so incredibly strong, and I felt strongly that this was going to be one of my last days in that area. And best thing of all, one of our investigators (who is always incredibly busy) was able to come!

The next day the Elders waited as long as they could before letting us know the transfer information, so we were sitting in the Jacksons living room..waiting..,painfully waiting. Then we got the text that said I would be transferring to the Liberty Jail with Sister Farnsworth. I knew it was coming...but yup I cried a little anyway :) haha so we opened early Christmas presents with the Jacksons and  I mentally prepared myself to say goodbye to all these people who have become like family...worst.

Luckily it wasn't actually goodbye....and I'm so excited to be serving In The Liberty Jail, I have already been able to meet such amazing people, and the spirit is so strong here. By the second day, I was able to give a presentation, and the spirit was able to bring all these history facts to my memory...crazy.

 Goodbyes are the worst

Agh!! I'm going to miss Sister Maxwell and all the lovelies in New Mark. Sister Farnsworth is awesome, she has been through A LOT, and is so incredibly strong. I love her lots.

         Sister Williams

Okay, thank you all for the love and support, and I'll try to be better at emailing!

Great Things

This week was full of great things...but it was also full of some really hard experiences. A few emails back I talked about how we had three people on date, which was awesome, but in this past week two of those people fell through. Leah's dads forbid her from getting baptized and Amanda said she just doesn't know.

BUT this week was also a historic one, cause on Sunday we had a multi stake conference because they will be creating a new stake!! That's huge! So everything kinda got switched around, but it was so cool to be a part of that :)

I also went on exchanges this week and it was amazing for me! Because it helps me realize that I have been being a little too hard on myself when I comes to missionary work (haha big surprise) but Sister Quido talked to me about how I remind her a lot of how she was when she first came on her mission...agh! It was amazing!

I'm doing great!

Stand Ye In Holy Places

Try a Little Harder To Be a Little Better

…"Each of us can do a little better than we have been doing. We can be a little more kind. We can be a little more merciful. We can be a little more forgiving. We can put behind us our weaknesses of the past, and go forth with new energy and increased resolution to improve the world about us, in our homes, in our places of employment, in our social activities.

We have work to do, you and I, so very much of it. Let us roll up our sleeves and get at it, with a new commitment, putting our trust in the Lord."                                                                                  

We Have a Work to Do
