Letter #36 - Online Proselyting Mission

September 25, 2017


Hello Family and friends!

One of the newest and most exciting things happening right now is that the FJM is now doing online proselyting! This includes using Facebook as a tool for sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ! As family and friends you are welcome to follow my teaching efforts on Facebook (Or if you wanna get baptized OR you want to help teaching my investigators- I get permission on a case by case basis) We don't officially start until Oct 4 after my zone conference/ training for it. All companionships in the mission will also get a galaxy smartphone, which is a BIG improvement to the phone we have nowπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Our Efforts will still be focused in our own area, so I will still mostly be teaching people in my own area.

There is going to be a lot of freedom with our online use, but also a lot of responsibility!
Last week: I got a new haircut
I got a new companion, Sister Anderson, she is awesome and beautiful. Don't have a pic with her yet.
Women's General conference was good
WATCH GENERAL CONFERENCE THIS WEEKEND, SAT AND SUN GO ON LDS.ORG
We have been trying to track down a lot of Less Active members, they are hiding for us...
Well there was and still is a lot of cleanup from Irma, a lot of fallen trees, so that's how it is.

Love, Sister Prue

After the Storm



September 13, 2017

Hi, President Lee gave us permission to write you and tell you I am safe and well. I survived the Hurricane, yay! Things are almost pretty much back to normal. We still don't have electric in our apartment because of trees falling on power lines (trees don't have strong roots here like idaho), but we are the only companionship in the stake who doesn't. It should come back in a day or two. So we spent the night at bishops :) It wasn't bad at all by the time it got to our area. Just a little rain and wind. Love you, hope you are having a great day!
Sister Prue
Ps Don't be anxious, we are so well taken care of πŸ‘ŒπŸ‘πŸ˜¬πŸ˜»πŸ˜»πŸ˜»

Letter #35 - All is going well ✋πŸ‘ŒπŸ˜πŸΊπŸœπŸ‘- missionaries in Hurricane Irma

September 9, 2017




Hello Family and Friends!
Today is our p-day instead of Monday, since Irma will be passing through that day. We have two sister missionaries currently with us right now, but I assure you all is safe and well. The church keeps us well taken care of! We have had some wonderful miracles this week, including coming in contact with a less active, part member family who is ready to come back to church! They said they love feeding the missionaries before they moved here, and they want to take the lessons again. What a miracle!

We had interviews this week and President Lee said he saw a picture of me and my companion on the internet, so I guess he looks for them πŸ‘€πŸ‘€πŸ¦‘πŸ¦ƒ Please help missionaries stay dignified by only posting proper pictures please. PS He really enjoyed the picture he saw of me and my companion, we were hugging and he really liked that we were getting along.

So we are also with Sister McConnell and Sistter Allgaier, they were evacuated to us from St Augustine Shores area. We were walking into the church today(to send emails), and we accidently walked in 5 mins before a baptism was starting, so we went to a baptism today, haha. Thoughts being Heavenly Father puts you where you are meant to be, even if you don't know why. I know he has guided my life and i have been very blessed by it. Even though I don't always understand why things happen a certain way. When you get answers to your prayers LISTEN and follow your prompting(s). Love you all. This week is going to be another great week.
This week I was reading the end of Mosiah and learning the pattern of faith building and blessings.
1. Promise/ convenant from God
2. Instructions to live by from Him
3. Trial
3.5 living by the instructions given from God to overcome trial with his help.
4. Trial is lifted+ blessings

Love, Sister Prue

Letter #34 - Mike's Baptism

September 4, 2017


Hello Family and Friends!

This week Mike got baptised, it went well and was so exciting for him! We set a tentative date for Ariana to get baptized, but there are many activites going on, so we arent positive when it will be yet. General Conference is coming up soon, get your questions and pens ready! I made a paper chain to my 9 months left mark, but it isnt until next month :) We are coming in the thick of hurricane season, so they may or may not come to our mission, but I am in the safe part of Florida, so no worries really.

I know that Jesus Christ is truly our savior and can his atonement can and will change our lives as we come closer to him. I know following his example will bring us back to our Heavenly Father. I know that Joseph Smith was really a prophet of God and truly saw Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. I know the church is organized by Christ and is the only church with God's priesthood authority. I say these things in Jesus' name, amen.

Love, Sister Prue
