Hey There!

Ok SO I'm so sorry it's been a while since I've sent out a big email. Life has been crazy!! So I'm now in Branson Missouri aka the "garden of Eden" haha EVERYONE in the mission calls it that. There are SO many awesome things going on here! We actually shot gunned elders outta here and they left us nothing but 6 jars of peanut butter but after this past week we have 40 new potential investigators! So now we're just going to focus this next week on weeding out those who are actually potentials and those who aren't as prepared. Plus we have this competition going between the elders and sisters in our zone to see how many people can get the most active member lessons this week and then the most referrals next week and then like the most investigators and there's only 4 sisters in our zone...including me and my companion haha BUT we're still gonna cream them! :) Sister Cryer and I have led the zone in our goals for the past few weeks and now we're just gonna keep going. I love sister Cryer! She's such a hard worker and we get along really well. :) Also we've had dinner with ALL of the Mormon famous people here except the Duttons cause they're just coming home from Arizona but! They've called us and we're coming over soon. It's just crazy! All these people are so awesome! I just want them to adopt me! :) We can go to the shows with a progressing investigator SO in addition to having progressing investigators we'll get to have a concert haha. I don't know. I'm just really loving it here. It's SO fun to serve in the YSA too because they have SO many activities and they're PERFECT for finding! Missionary work has never been easier! :) We're also focusing a lot on the new video "Because He Lives". EVERYONE SHARE IT AND GET ON THE WEBSITE!! Heavenly Father truly is making sharing the gospel SO easy. WE just need to hop on board and get busy. I also LOVED conference SO much! One of my favorite talks was by one of the guys from the 70, the one about living the gospel being like a dance. We can all fake dancing for a while but until we FEEL AND HEAR the music we're never truly performers. Take the time "every day, every day, every day" as one of the 70 said to study the Book of Mormon and apply its teachings. "Do good things to do good things not to be recognized" and stand up for and strengthen your own marriage and family. Those are some of the things that stood out to me this weekend. We ALL have a responsibility and a privilege of standing up for and sharing the gospel. SHARE IT! LIVE IT! Reach out and accept the hand God offers to us at all times. I'm so thankful to have the gospel in my life. I love and sustain the prophet and apostles and I KNOW that their words come from a loving Heavenly Father who is trying to reach out to us. There is nowhere else in the world more fulfilling and more comforting than in the arms of the Savior's atonement. We access this by living his gospel to the fullest. I love you all and hope you have a wonderful week! Let the message of Easter stay in your heart and mind everyday #because he lives! :)

Love you forever
