Letter #26 - 🐾🚴‍♀️πŸ’―πŸ’―πŸ˜¬πŸ˜πŸ˜† Transfer Calls!

June 26, 2017


Family and Friends!!!

It has been another wonderful week with many exciting things :)
Starting with last monday night we met with some referrals from a member in another ward. They are two women Marie and Eileen. They are SO READY for the gospel! They have been keeping their commitments, asking questions, and sincerely do what they can to learn what we share. We have been bringing members every time and I can feel that they will get baptized and find the JOY and PEACE the gospel brings! Somehow it has been working out perfectly, so much fun! We have been teaching more lessons and more people to teach in general, so i really like that. 🦊
Sister Ganir got to go to the temple last thursday for her halfway mark, so I spent the day with Sister Spangler! She is a lot of fun, she is in my district. It has gotten very hot this last week. We have been biking some too, so it has been a bit physically exhausting, but that does not stop us, it just helps us sleep better.
Saturday Night was transfer calls, Sister Ganir and I are staying here in Fleming Island, yay! We will have a great time here, and find someone to baptize. For those of you who know Elder Reeser from my hometown, he will be my Zone Leader.
Sunday night was a GENESIS concert (gospel interfaith singing) Those people who sang BELTED and it was kinda overwhelming but it was a lot of fun to see all the missionaries who were there, love them! Saw Sister Elwell there. As missionaries, we sang "called to serve" and "one by one" A sister (member) took us to the concert and shared that she was on her fourth marriage, and the person who she was married to, it was his fourth too. She said that they were in fact High School sweethearts, and he was her first kiss! Funny how that they eventually came back together in the end. She shared important advice to never beg or chase after someone, if they want to stay in your life, they will, and if they don't, you cant stop them. Sister Ganir and I were talking about the mission, companionships, and eternal marriage after she got back from the temple. I have gained a stronger testimony that I want someone who loves God too and that I can be sealed in the temple with. It is very important that Heavenly Father is involved in all important decisions, because he can guide us to the most joy. πŸ‘¨‍πŸ‘©‍πŸ‘§‍πŸ‘¦

I saw John 8:32 this week, idk if I have ever seen it before, but its funny because it sounds so 2000's
32. "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

Our FJM Motto
I love tough things πŸ‘
I do though things first πŸ‘
I am first to do tough things πŸ‘
I LOVE being a MISSIONARY 😍😍😍

Letter #25 - Missionaries in the Flemingburg SQUAD!!!

June 19, 2017





Hello Family and Friends!!
(A
This week was stake conference! President and Sister Lee, the Orlando temple president and his wife and the stake patriarch were there. Those are pretty cool people, Im proud to say that President Lee bore a powerful testimony. On Saturday, the elders gave our investigator Teresa (because she has been sick) a blessing. It was a good experience for her, I know how helpful blessings can be. It has been raining a lot here! We have been trying to plan a district golf p-day, but the rain is foiling our plans! 😬😬😬 Haha, oh well.
Personally, one of my favorite parts of missionary work is the other missionaries! They are so much fun. I was thinking about these awesome people, and I thought "well the best squad i've ever been in is a missionary squad"
Gabriel came to stake conference, this is a great milestone for him. We have been biking this week, and its actually really fun, its great exercise and makes you feel good.
There is so much to learn in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Our understanding and faith can help us truly change to a christlike (πŸ’―) character.

In Jacob 4:13 there were something amazing! "the Spirit speaketh the truth and lieth not. Wherefore, it speaketh of things as they really are, and of things as they really will be;" Yeah, so thats how you know!

Love, Sister Prue

Letter #24 -If something happens, ride a golf cart

June 12, 2017





Dear Family and Friends,

Life right now is quite worry free. It's wonderful. As a missionary, it has gotten a lot easier to just enjoy each day and take it as it is. This week we went on trade offs with the sister training leaders for a day. I stayed in Flemming with Sister Tryon, who has been in this area twice before! Sister Ganir and I tried to do more specific finding and we found several formers who are willing to meet with missionaries again. We had 3 investigators come to church this week. I'm sorry I have cheesy titles but it feels like an obligation. We have been biking a bit this week. I wish I could individually write all of you every week, unfortunately i do not have the time or focus for that, so if you want to hear from me more personally, ill commit to writing everyone back who writes me at this point. I am so grateful for all the family and friends who have been supporting me so far. thanks. sIster skelton had us over for dinner, it was so good. she is from haiti and speaks french to her children, it was so fun to watch. I found CTR washi tape in the apartment. well, i yall have more specific questions. let me know. ill try to answer them.

love, sister prue

Letter #23 -We played ultimate Frisbee

June 5, 2017



Hello Family and Friends!

It has been another week of adventures! This week Alexi decided to come to church! It was fast and testimony meeting, we were also hoping he would go up and bear his testimony, but he said he would next month :) Sister Waness also came to church and bore her testimony. Saturday, we had dinner with her and her husband Kenny. He said the closing prayer, and we were so surprised! Today is zone p-day, which means we get to hang out with our zone! since this is a new zone for me, there are a lot of missionaries i dont see so often. 3 Nephi 13 is a very enlighting chapter in the book of mormon about our relationship with God. I reccomend all to read it. I like  verse 26 and 32

26 Behold the fowls of the air, for they sow not, neither do they reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

32 For your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.

Im wearing a pokemon shirt, I think sister Kelly prue got the same one on her mission too!
People here are generally very nice. They offer us water and food, and anything else.
I hope you all are also having a great week. Right now I'm reading Our Heritage. I finished Our Search for Happiness.

Love, Sister Prue
