Week 55- BACK IN CHESTER

 BACK. IN. CHESTER. 

This week was a rollercoaster. 

But I learned so much about the power of God. The beginning of this week was a huge challenge and stress for me. But! I feel so much better now. Earlier this week I was really struggling to know what to do and how to train 3 sisters to do social media and historian work at once and everything just felt worse because it finally hit me that I was out of my last area away from the people that I love so much. I have never loved people that much. Also I MISS SIS HUDSON. She was just copy and paste of a perfect consecrated missionary. Words can't describe how grateful I am for her, all the time we spent together, and the things she taught me. She shaped me to be more like my Savior. 

I am SO thrilled to be back here in Chester as well. It is such a blessing to be here and see all the members again. They are just so awesome. I was like IMMMMM BACK at the pulpit. It is making things 5,000 happier and easier as I am trying to adjust. After Thursday (one of the hardest days of my life) and much praying and studying I feel so much more joy. I am so proud of these sisters and the ability they have to take on all these things at once. I have seen the true power in the principle of Faith as the adversary was hitting us hard this week. They are and will be amazing for social media. 

The scripture that got me through this week was 1 Corinthians 2:5 ("That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.") Without even realizing I was trying so hard to have faith in my own wisdom and how I think things should go, but I know that God has all power and I have committed to put all my faith in Him. Because he knows the way! 

Sister CROWTON my new comp is an angel sent from God. She is in her second transfer and she is just ON FIRE. I am just so beyond proud of her and her diligence. We have already had so many good laughs together. I love her so much and am so glad God put us together at this time in my mission. I NEED HER!

I love my mission so much and never want to leave. 

Miss you all so much. Keep killin it with whatever you are doing in life. BYEEEAAA

Cheeeeeers
