Letter #56 - "Would you like a picture of Jesus?" "Yes ma'am, I'll take two" 😅

February 26, 2018





Last Week

Hello!
This week we handed out a lot of pictures of Jesus and coupons for free bibles! Lake City had an Olustee festival and we got to meet a few people. Al has started reading the book of Mormon and he says he wants to learn more! We helped Ralph start his family history and we are going to take him to the family history center and put it together online. Nancy has started to come to church regularly with her grandkids. She is super involved in gospel principles class and learning a lot 😁

This week
We set two baptism dates with Nancy and Al. Neither of them were able to go to church this week, but Shannon came and she loved it 😁 Sister Spangler got her hair done last Monday and it looks nice! This week we will have transfer calls and we will find out if we stay together or change 😮 Missy taught gospel principles for the first time and she did a perfect job! Things are moving along here smoothly. Our next zone conference will be attended by a general authority and he will be taking a tour of the mission... We are excited to see how the work progresses in the coming months! I got a package from the activity day girls from home and it made my day 😊
Love Sister Prue

Matthew 18:1-6
1 At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?
2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,
3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
5 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.
6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

Letter #55 - KCs Produce Tradeoff ×2

February 12, 2018







This week we had ZOCO and tradeoffs! I was with Sister Mann again, except we stayed in my area. We met a man named Don, he wasn't that interested at first, but we asked more about his favorite preacher and he ended up opening up a lot more! 😊 Missy went to the temple for the first time and she loved it! Sister Mann found a cat while proselyting and NAMED IT FRECKLES in about 2 seconds 😂 we saw horses while driving in the outer parts of town and we drove by them a couple times they were free ranging on the streets and around the houses. They were rugged looking and galloped past the car. We talked about family history and the book of Mormon in zone conference. I drove from lake city to Jacksonville for the first time and it went well! From all the different driving I have done in my mission, I feel like an experienced driver! I sure have improved a lot. We have been reading the book of Mormon on the phone with Shannon most days. She loves reading it, we hope to get her to church soon! Nancy came to church this week, and her 4 grandkids. A girl from our ward had a baby shower and she is younger than me 😅 We hope to see many more amazing things this week.

Love Sister Prue

Letter #54 - We Literally are full time missionaries 🙋‍♀️

February 5, 2018


Hello Family and Friends,

This week we got a bible referral (shannon) and she accepted a book of Mormon as well! Last night she wasn't feeling well and we asked her if we could read the scriptures with her, we ended up not being able to go to her house, but she said we could call her because she "wouldn't deny Jesus" 😁 we read the introduction with her and when we asked her thoughts, she totally got it! Shannon is ready to change her life and we are so happy for her.

We message our investigators on Facebook all the time and it's really so fun, because that's the kind of thing I love doing. It really helps us connect with them and it's easier to retain them and resolve concerns when we reach out everyday.

Alma 44:5
And now, Zerahemnah, I command you, in the name of that all-powerful God, who has strengthened our arms that we have gained power over you, by our faith, by our religion, and by our rites of worship, and by our church, and by the sacred support which we owe to our wives and our children, by that liberty which binds us to our lands and our country; yea, and also by the maintenance of the sacred word of God, to which we owe all our happiness; and by all that is most dear unto us-



Love, Sister Jill Prue
