Sister Mish Conference!

Dear Family & Friends,

We had MLC on Tuesday and an opportunity to do a blitz with Sister Wagner and Hermana Magalei! 

They were so fun and so cute and definitely the best teachers of doing the will of the Lord. I was grateful for Hermana Magalei's advice and kindness that she gave me, I will continually cherish it the rest of my life :)  

We had a wonderful Sisters Conference as well! It was put on by Sister Brough and the sisters of this mission! Sister Jensen and I had the opportunity to give a training on smart goals and how they pertained to preparing now in our mission for the rest of our life. We had the training all ready for the conference and quite literally the assistants that were called to give a training as well, gave the exact training we were going to give! It was awesome! We figured we just had to get up there and train with the words of the spirit on our hearts.  It went well and we hope it was received through the spirit well too.  

Our district leader gave a training on talking with everyone and I will admit we have been slacking in our work. And we have now talked to a lot more people that have been in our pathway! We have seen blessings from it too! 

We went to contact a referral and a woman was on her porch and I had a thought to go talk with her. We did and she said she was not in the best sports to talk to. We offered to pray with her and lift her spirits. We did and she was much better. She had lost her dog and that dog meant everything to her. She said that our prayer helped and we started to share more about who we were and our message. She wasn't comfortable with us coming by so we ended up leaving a Book of Mormon with her and going to our appointment. 

Even though this didn't end in a baptism or anything like that I know that because we were willing God led us to this woman so He could send her comfort if she was willing to accept it.  Sunday was good because we were able to have our investigator there and he came to two hours of church! He is slowly progressing but we are making sure that he will make his baptismal date!

Love,

Sister Jones

So Wednesday we got up before the crack of dawn, 5 am, and were out the door by 6 to make it to Lexington with the Corbin sisters (Patterson and Nicholas) by 8. Sacrifices! We met up with 6 more sisters and the assistants to the president picked us up in a huge van and drove us all to Louisville! I'm sure we all looked like polygamists. Two men at the Mormon church picking up 10 women. HAHAHA, and a member pulled up right as we were about to leave. Elder Waite
commented "this doesn't look bad at all, two elders getting in a car with 10 sisters." We trekked to Louisville and met up with all of the sisters in the mission for the Sisters Conference! It was awesome. There is nothing like being with all of the best missionaries in the GKLM! We were trained by the assistants, Sister Jones and Jensen, president and Sister Brough and a few other sets of sisters. Yep, that's right, I got to see my SistaJones!! Oh what a glorious reunion! Sister Brough was so incredible to get the whole thing lined up as well. She is so talented and organized! We were uplifted spiritually and taught how to be better women of God! A lovely time spent in Louisville! 

Love,

Sister Hannah
