00ee6472-c24f-4040-a9f3-080ceadecab9 Sister Dantzel Park Back to Missionary Letters A Peruvian Christmas Hey everyone, I hope you had a very Merry Christmas and that you are preparing for a New Year! My week has been crazy but I don't have a lot of words for it. Let me explain… Bulletpoints ♤ Crazy divis with Primavera, they found a new house and a new pension in the day I was there and moved the next. ♤ Because of the season people just light off fireworks in the middle of the day here :) ♤ Divis with Bolognesi, I was with Hermana Lisintuña <3 She is from Ecuador and is a little ball of energy. I just love her. ♤ Divis with Parachico, I almost died. I got super sick and we had to spend all day inside, when we finally left… you could have found me lying in the middle of the road :) #HnaCastroEsLoLaximo #Ecuador ♤ Christmas, So for Christmas here they celebrate on the 24th until midnight! So we had permission from the President to stay up and see the fireworks. Of course I washed all the laundry in the extra 2 hours I had that night… ♤ It rained, I think this was the second time in my whole mission I have seen rain. I call this a miracle! ♤ A taxi driver told me my eyes are beautiful :) ♤ We sang Christmas Carols as a zone on Christmas eve <3 We went to an empty plaza and only members showed up. And we stood on this super awkward platform? It was super fun! ♤ We watched a bottle rocket fly into someones house… so we went into our and closed all the windows!! ♤ Alexander (a recent convert from Ilo). Found me and gave me a Christmas gift!!! It was so sweet and my only gift I received this year! Spiritual thought Today I am going to write about fireworks!! Fireworks are so beautiful, light up in different colors, can be seen from far away, and are used at night. Like our testimonies full of color and light. We light it with the desire of our hearts to share our knowledge. You can watch the fireworks shoot up in the air with the anticipation of seeing the colors burst into a beautiful shape. You can say the words but they don't burst until the spirit guides in what to say. The feeling of seeing the fireworks is the same feeling I get when I share my testimony. Showing the light of Christ that I know to be true even during the darkest of nights. Every time is just a little different but just as stunning and perfect in every way. I love you guys so much and I hope you can feel the savior's love for you. Have such a Happy New year!!! <3 Hermana Park Previous Letter Next Letter

808b0274-d945-41ec-a922-5618301a5b70 Elder Jaeger Lee Back to Missionary Letters 久しぶり！ Hi Everyone, sorry for sending so many emails. I'll try to tone it down a little. Anyway, I believe my last email was about my earthquake experience whilst on the toilet. I haven't had anything like that happen recently which is unfortunate, but I'm still doing good nonetheless. I was transferred after 3 transfers in Hibarigaoka to a place called Takao. It's technically part of a bigger city, and we just get the mountain part of it. It's quite beautiful. Since my last email I have had 3 more companions. Elder Dingle (Philippines), Elder Souza (Brazil), and now Elder McMillan from Utah. I'm guessing that this area will probably be my last. I have under 4 months left though, so who knows what can happen. I'm looking forward to seeing how this area plays out. Don't wanna bore you guys too much, so I'll end the email here.

33ba38a9-3061-407b-8b45-66171eff8ded Elder Ethan Leavitt Back to Missionary Letters Buenas 🙌 welp here I am. Sending another email after like 6 months lol. I made it to Argentina great. I had 3 flights. I left Portland at 1 made it to to Atlanta in 4 Hours and then ran to the next gate because I was going to miss my flight. Was on the Plane for more than 10 hours, hardly slept lol made it to Buenos Aires fine, had a native who work for the church help us buy tickets and check our bags and so and so. My next flight for Buenos Aires to Córdoba was like 1:30 minutes. But made it here just fine haha can't believe I'm here. Definitely feel like I'm still in the US but no one speaks English and idk just weird. But yeah met my comp he's a Native Argentino. Doesn't speak English, has a thick accent and talks really fast lol. But I understand almost every thing he says so thanks to the Gift Of Tounges! Right now we cover 2 areas LAS FLORES Y HOGAR 3 it's pretty safe over here. The President suggests not taking your phone and any belongings with you when working because you will be robbed. My comp was robbed 2 weeks ago.... lol but that's because the thief saw he had a phone. So yea. The Peso to American dollar is like 100 or something but if you brought cash you can change it with these dudes standing outside the bank for over double the price! So I'm loaded now lol. But all is good 👍sad to leave my friends in the states and I hope they know I love them ! ❤ I hit a year in the mission in 10 days so that's exciting! Love yall 💓 lowkey prolly will forget to send a northern email for a while...... Previous Letter Next Letter

3ab0eff1-f36b-442d-be73-8228847b7b04 Sister Taylor Allen Back to Missionary Letters general authority wahoo Hello friends and family(: The past couple weeks have been so so good! I am absolutely loving my time here in Horseheads and the missionaries I get to serve around! This has been one of the happiest times on my mission!! We FINALLY found some people to teach and now are super booked with back to back lessons! Sister Roundy and I have seen amazing miracles this transfer and the work is rolling forward nicely 🤩just within the last 14 days we came across 8 new friends that are soaking up the truths of the gospel! It is incredible to see how God puts the people who are prepared into our path!! Also I hit 11 months today which blows my mind like WHERE HAS THE TIME GONE??! Elder Bassett from the Seventy came and did a mission tour this week here! It was a special expirence because the Mission Leadership Council got to have little one on ones with him then all eat lunch together! Not going to lie I was a tad bit intimated but he was the sweetest man! He gave the greatest trainings and shared some solid life advice! He talked to us alot about sacrafice and how it is an opportunity for us to show our gratitude for all that the Savior did! He told us how we all need to lay down the things of the world at the alter and focus our attention on things with eternal significance! I was able to recieve a lot of answers to questions I have had recently as he spoke which was a major blessing. I want you all to know how much I love you! Your Father in Heaven knows you and loves you! Make the relationship you have with Him your number one pursuit and I promise that is when you will have joy beyond compare! No trial or struggle will matter because you will have eyes that see far past this short time in mortality! Have a solid week and please I'm begging each of you to watch some scary movies for me or go to a haunted corn maze!! Then send me pictures so I can cry about how much I miss them 😂 side note: here is my current address for those who asked -> 228 Roosevelt Ave Apt #2 Horseheads, NY 14845 United States Previous Letter Next Letter

ff55a53b-b546-4561-b24c-cb7810a6bb37 Sister Maleena Felshaw Back to Missionary Letters howdy partners Heres some updates for my mom and whoever reads these: -we got to go to the temple as a mission on Oct 30th!!! Each zone had a different session. It was my first time going back to the temple in over a year and boy did it feel good. - a member gave us a bunch of bananas. Not like a singular bunch of bananas but like A BUNCH OF BANANAS. like 20. Needless to say I ate a lot of bananas. I was looking up different banana recipes and a picture below was one of the results. I was not a fan. -transfers happened. Again. I know they're every 6 weeks but it sure does feel more frequent than that. My comp and I both stayed! I kinda expected that but I'm super excited to continue in this area and work on my spanish. -speaking of Spanish: it is hard. It is hard to be a missionary for 15 months and then be put into a Spanish area and feel like you can't contribute anything. It's hard to have thoughts in your mind that you feel would help someone but not be able to communicate them. It's hard to have people talk about you in front of you because they think you dont understand. IT'S HARD OKAY. but I am so grateful for it. I love this language and I'm sad I have such a short time on the mission to learn it but I look forward to continuing it after. Sorry, little did you know when you asked to be on my email it was more of signing up to hear my problems lol. Life is good guys! Have an awesome week! Previous Letter Next Letter

c4129095-ed40-406d-9277-8f5a6fdddffd Elder Lydia Clark Back to Missionary Letters #COMPJACKPOT HEY EVERYONE! WHAT A WEEK! Let me tell you all about it! First off I LOVE being a missionary! This transfer has been the hardest but best transfer of my mission so far! I learned SO MUCH and grew in more ways than I thought possible! Best comps EVA! I have absolutely hit the JACKPOT when it comes to companions! We had transfers on Tuesday and I was absolutely shocked when I saw that my girl/mtc companion Sister Balls was coming to Lake Marion! I'm pretty sure I scared everyone, I screamed so loud! And as excited as I was, I was SO MEGA SAD to say bye to my comp Sister Harrell! She's absolutely my favorite person in the whole world and I miss her so much already! I'm so grateful for the time I got to serve with her! And I know she will be one of my BESTIES forever! I 💟MY FRIENDS! Our friends are doing so well! Paul and his wife just got back from a trip to Europe and it looked so dreamy! And he's on date for baptism in a couple of weeks! What a lucky guy! Also we just found a new friend named Jacob and he's so awesome! We gave him a church tour and he came to church and LOVED IT! Facebook works! Part of being a social media leader means we get to give presentations to our missionaries! So this week we did one for the new missionaries and it was so fun! Our new mission president and his wife add so much love and unity to our mission and I LOVE IT! 2 Nephi 26 24 He doeth not anything save it be for the benefit of the world; for he loveth the world, even that he layeth down his own life that he may draw all men unto him. Wherefore, he commandeth none that they shall not partake of his salvation. 25 Behold, doth he cry unto any, saying: Depart from me? Behold, I say unto you, Nay; but he saith: Come unto me all ye ends of the earth, buy milk and honey, without money and without price I LOVE YOU ALL! GO HUG SOMEONE YOU LOVE!

Elder Andrew Maxfield Back to Missionary Letters From Knox To Nash 207 South Church Avenue Rockwood, TN 37854 PHOTOS https://photos.app.goo.gl/6eFoMLcxApcTof8c7https://photos.app.goo.gl/6eFoMLcxApcTof8c7 Hey Yall! I've completed just about half a Sister's Mission😱😁 that's gotta count for something right? Well it's been a good week so it's going to count in my books. It's been such a freaking amazing week! I finally went to the temple after a long 9 month wait🥹😭 and it was a long wait, never being able to go and watching everybody else go. It truly makes me realize what it's like for those who have lived so far away from a temple, what a blessing it is to go. Anyways here's how my week was let me know how your week was this Easter week! - P Day was EPIC, (my autocorrect knew epic needed to be all caps) because we had a Zone P Day. 4 straight hours of volleyball, basketball, and 9 Square was enough to keep me entertained the whole time and completely whooped by the end😂 - We had youth night and got to help the youngins get themselves some names for the temple on Saturday! And I got a bunny signed by all the young women from Arieana so that's also a massive W😎✌️ - Thursday we had an amazing exchange with the Lenoir City Elders! The only difference was I was staying in Rockwood and had Elder Phillips with me! We got to work going with Harry to Spring City to see all the crazy Hillbilly people😅 I learned a lot from Elder Phillips and his many years of Wisdom!(he's 26 years old and just came out!) - Saturday was the big day! WE MADE IT TO NASHVILLE😱 A huge youth group came with the Ward and we got to go with Arieana to help her through her first time! Just a really good excuse to get to go🙃 We were able to perform baptisms for the dead which were amazing! I also was given the sacred honor of baptizing Arieana for her mom who passed away last year🫠🫠 Talk about sacred experiences! I also baptized two other cool people from the ward and then on top of everything got to help with Confirmations! SPIRITUAL OVERLOAD! Much needed time to recharge my spiritual battery😊 - Also I got to see Sister Bishop from HOUSE MOUNTAIN!! What an awesome surprise😁 - Sunday Elder Barlow gave a talk about, you guessed it, Easter as a whole. Why The Atoning Sacrifice is so important. Not why it was important, but why it is! The Atonement for you and me is an ongoing process, giving us the ability to progress and better ourselves every day! The thing that I love most about how we as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints celebrate Easter is that while we celebrate His Atoning and Suffering in the Garden of Gethsemane, and His Crucifixion on the Cross, we focus our celebrations on the fact that He lives! He is alive and is a perfect Ressurected example that we are able to follow. Think about what He's done for you, even after Easter! - We had Easter dinner with the Powells! They're so awesome, all their little girls running around giving us stuff and drawing and painting for us! They remind me of the Dibbs😁😂 *shoutout Brother and Sister Dibb, Quinn, Jada, and Wylie!🧡 The Powells made Bunny pancakes(they look like Barry) Funeral Potatoes, and eggs! For my spiritual thought I wanted to focus on temples a little more, as it was the highlight of my mission so far! Temples are the central way that we make eternal covenants with our families and ties them to our Heavenly Father! Getting to baptize a daughter for her mom was such a holy experience for me because it's hard to understand what the family connection really is when you have your family still, but understanding what it means to bring families together is super special to me😊 I want to ask all of you what temples mean to you? I promise you that temples are God's houses. If you've never been into a temple, what would you be willing to do to be close to God, in His house? In the only dedicated place Satan cannot be! Just think about that😁 I love yall! I'm in such a unbreakably good mood so let me know if you need anything! I'll help with anything! Have a great week! Email me! andrew.maxfield@missionary.org Previous Letter Next Letter

Sister Jordan Memmott Back to Missionary Letters So much good❤️‍🔥 Hi guys!! We've seen so many miracles this last week it's been great!!! And happy Holy Week! I'm so grateful we get to celebrate our Savior this week and focus on all that he's done for us💓 Highlights - we had zone conference!!! One of my fav meetings:) President John talked about spiritual eclipses and making sure we are keeping our "eye single to the glory of God". It's helped me really focus on what's most important and get rid of the distractions in my way! - Shane!!! This guy is so awesome and has been prepared for the gospel! We had a lesson and a chapel tour with him and he loved it all! He is so open minded about everything and grateful we ran into him. When we gave him a Book of Mormon it brought him to tears because he was so happy! And he's reading it which is so awesome! - hahah funniest thing ever! So one of our members has this challenge they do with missionaries, which is to drink 54oz of milkshake in 5 minutes! And it's SO big! Anyway we went ahead and tried it and guys no joke I literally threw up hah! I got a little more than halfway and then my stomach said nope not today! They got a good kick out of it and it made for some fun times😅 - we went to the temple today and as we were leaving I ran into my recent convert Chelsea from Colleyville!!!! Little tender mercy! I love her and it made my day! She is the absolute cutest and doing so good! This week I was reading a talk by Elder Uchtdorf called Continue in Patience and it was so good! It showed me how important patience is even though its a hard thing to get down haha! There hasn't been a lot going on in our area the last few weeks and finally after so long God has been blessing us and we've seen the good come out of our hard times! He truly is always with us and aware of what we are going through! "Often the deep valleys of our present will be understood only by looking back on them from the mountains of our future experience. Often we can’t see the Lord’s hand in our lives until long after trials have passed. Often the most difficult times of our lives are essential building blocks that form the foundation of our character and pave the way to future opportunity, understanding, and happiness." Love y'all! Have the best week!!! Sister Memmott🩷🩷 Previous Letter Next Letter

Sister Jerusha Bundy Back to Missionary Letters No longer an island girl Hey fans Another week has passed here and not anything too new but there has definitely been some things that have happened so ill get into it. First off, the sun didnt last. The clouds came back and it was a little sad but nevertheless, the work went forward. We had exchanges and I went to a little island with sister pelton called Salt Springs Island, you have to take a quick 45 minute ferry to get there and of course it kinda broke down for a bit so we got stuck on it for a little extra time but thats okay, i like being on a boat. Sister Pelton and I hit the streets of SSI right away. SSI is a super small community, not even a stop light for me to run a red through. I felt like i was on a getaway from the big city and i soaked it all in. We talked to some really cool people, knocked a lot of doors, and picked flowers along the way. No one really let us in but I was content. It was so quiet and peaceful there and I really enjoyed it, it reminded me a little bit of Prince Rupert. I would definitely go back. Later that night we helped teach some Ukrainian refugees english, or helped them with their english, they were super sweet! It felt good to be back in my area with Sister Reed though, we are always pretty busy and its exciting for me, completely different flow of missionary work but ultimately the same goal. Ill give a little update on all of our friends now: Ray: ray is just better than ever, hes practically my canadian dad at this point, he is deep diving into the doctrine and covenants and is super smart, understands and accepts almost every aspect of the gospel. He bought two new suits to wear at church and he looked great! We had a lesson about the priesthood with the stake president and his wife and it went so well. Ive definitely grown my understanding of the priesthood throughout my mission and its actually one of my favorite topics to teach. It was very tender. Ray is seriously an angel though. If my parents ever decided they didnt want me, i just know Ray would take over, he is just the best Jaryd has been on a spiritual high lately, he came to church and we had a really great lesson about marriage and families with him Patt is doing SO GOOD! i just love this woman, no one brings me as much joy as patt does lately, she is just pure in heart, we found out how to work her tv and have been able to have her watch some church movies, we also got her a picture book of Mormon and so we a making progress here This week was good and we so many miracles! But TRANSFER NEWS CAME I knew this one was coming, im getting transferred to abbotsford and im covering YSA, never thought id cover ysa but here we are...... im sad to leave victoria and sister reed, we worked hard, we got lots done and i know victoria will be in good hands. Ive learned so much from sister reed and im really bummed i only got one transfer with her but my new compie sister ahlstrom will be great im sure. We get to take the ferry today (the cruise) and it might be my last time sadly, im going to soak it in🥲🥲 Anyways time for a spiritual thought Doctrine and covenants 88:67-68 67 And if your eye be single to my glory, your whole bodies shall be filled with light, and there shall be no darkness in you; and that body which is filled with light comprehendeth all things. 68 Therefore, sanctify yourselves that your minds become single to God, and the days will come that you shall see him; for he will unveil his face unto you, and it shall be in his own time, and in his own way, and according to his own will. I know that our happiness is directly related to our personal purity. Jesus Christ is our only source of peace and He is our person to look to. I have a testimony of prayer. If you have struggles in your life. Praying about it will show God that you are seeking his help, i pŕomise you that He will answer them, in His own time, in his own way, and according to his own will. I love you all. HAPPY EASTER! Jesus Lives. Watch one of my favorite easter videos!

Sister Lydia Clark Back to Missionary Letters #SURPRISEIT'SME HEY EVERYONE! Here are some highlights from the past few weeks! Sorry I am literally the worst at writing weeklys! - Feburary Transfers! We got 14 new missionaries and got to help them have a good first impression of our Mission! - Mission Leadership Council which was camping & backpacking themed - Exchanges in Weaver Lake! I got to go back to my old apartment #sofun - Zone Conference! 3 Nephi 5:13 Behold, I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I have been called of him to declare his word among his people, that they might have everlasting life. - Lot's of late nights helping Sister Gochnour paint a backdrop! So fun! - Exchanges with New Prague! I went with Sister Wilson who is a brand new missionary! - Exchanges with Alexandria! They live 2 hours away so we got permission to stay the night! I have never had a worse night haha! They left a window open and it was SO COLD. plus they live right next to a train track so I woke up to a train coming by twice hahah. I literally thought an earthquake was happening - Lamb of God concert! - March madness! We're reading the whole Book of Mormon this month and I'm only 70 pages behind #gome - I hit 17 months as a missionary yesterday! Our friends are doing good! Sadly our friend Damoan who was on date for baptism is no longer on date. He hadn't been coming to church and he recently just lost a loved one which is so sad. So prayers for Damoan would be much appreciated! We are also teaching a super awesome friend named Kristian! Some missionaries in Chicago called us one night and told us they had a friend who just moved to Bloomington and is coming to church with us on Sunday and he did! We've been teaching him ever since and he is SO AWESOME! Lot's of miracles happening around here and God's hand is so evident in all of it! LOVE YOU ALL! Have the best week ever!
