SMOKE HOUSE

Image
Another week down! I got a new companion! So now we have an new stl and im not alone! She is super super quiet. She told me her buggest fear was to become an stl haha so we will see how this transfer goes.  I am still in the same area but sadly moved out of my house. I was so sad to leave my friends. And worst of all i had to move into a smoke house. It smells so bad. We cant even unpack our clothes or they smell like smoke! Its a mess!  This week we have 2 70s here for a mission tour and i have to conduct zone conferences with 4 zones! I am so scared pray i dont mess up!  Here is something to ponder "The Lord is aware of the challenges you face. He knows you, He loves you, and I promise, He will send angels to help you."  I am so grateful for the angels that are helping me through this work and know they are with each of you!  Love yall! Send updates and first day of school pictures:)  Love Like Jesus  Love, hermana  peterson  

See You In 6 Months...

I offically hit one year on the mission! I cant tell if time is flying going slower than a snail or normal speed, but I am so so grateful for my time here. Florida sure has grown on me and has a big piece of my heart!  This week honestly wasn't that exciting. I had to sit through 6 district councils and it was painful. I had to give trainings in each of them. I had no clue what I was going to share that would help the missionaries that are in my two zones. But i pulled something together so i pray it helped at least 1 missionary!! We have struggled finding friends who are willing to progress and keep commitments! Praying this week we will find those who are prepared.  A quick though this week comes from Mosiah 4: 10-12  10 And again, believe that ye must repent of your sins and forsake them, and humble yourselves before God; and ask in sincerity of heart that he would forgive you; and now, if you believe all these things see that ye do them.  11 And again I say unto ...

Howdy folks! Love and miss you so much! This week was so crazy! We literally were out of our area helping other sisters lost of the time! We even had to go on a 2:00am adventure.  We got 36 friends tickets to the tabernacle choir concert that is coming up so we are super hyped to go with them.  Transfers are next week so we will see what happens:)  This week as I was reading in the BoM a verse caught my attention. It is in 1 Nephi 16: 5.  It really caught my attention. Nephi talking about the joy and great hopes he felt for other peoples progression towards the savior. That is crucial. The path towards him is not easy or simple. Its a hard rough road.  But we are ON THE SAME TEAM. Just like we cheer for our teammates or family and freinds during a sports game we should be cheering for each other on the road of becoming like him.  We know Christ already Won. We know we want to be on his team. So lets all join the team and cheer and lift eachother along the p...

HURRICANE DEBBY

Heyoo! Hope it was a baller week for all of you. My week consisted of pretty much no time in my area. Thats one of the hatdest things for me to be out of my area. I left my poor trainee that knows no spanish here in miami with another sister who knows zero spanish. Lets just say our area has suffered. Only 3 more exchanges so I am praying those go well!  This week we also survived the tropical storm hurricane thing. We were locked up all day Saturday but nothing to crazy happened just bad storms.  Our friends havent really been keeping committments and its been hard. We are praying for them! We know God will provide.  This week in sacrament during testimony meetings there were so many people going up and it got me thinking about all the different members there are in the church. And these are a few I thought of.  1. MEMBER MEMBER- Someone who loves to tell everyone they are a memeber becasue they were baptized but does nothing else besides pull the member card. ...
