  Hey yall! Hope yall are so excited and ready for this new year!! 2025 is gonna be GREAT ONE! I am so grateful for the year 2024. It has been the greatest blessing to be able to be a missionary for all of 2024. I have had such a fun time. I have grown so much. I have been abe to see so many miracles every day. I have been able to come to know my Savior by learning about him and serving the people He loves. I have come to know Him by loving the people He loves and in turn I have been able to come to know how much He knows me and loves me!! 2024 will always be a year I look back on and am so grateful for!! It was a great week!! Let's get into it..... Some happy things and what I learned from them: • Our friends Gabbi and Nylah got baptized on Sunday! They were so happy! They are the cutest girls.

  Hey yall! It has been a bit! But MERRY CHRISTMAS!! I love yall so much and hope you have had an amazing Christ centered Christmas. Last week I didn't get an email out, so I will be covering two weeks. Also, last week I got transferred to Kingman, Arizona. It is kinda the booneys and I love it!! Let's get into it...... Some happy things and what I learned from them: • We got a media referral a couple weeks ago in my last area. Her name was Ivonne. We called her and she was SO happy to talk to us! She said that she saw a facebook add and just felt drawn to it! She clicked on it, even thought she never usually does that. We went to have a lesson with her and it was the most I have ever felt the spirit in my life. She just kept stopping us and saying how much she felt the spirit and knew that what we were saying was true! It was incredible!! She cleared her schedule for the next day and came to church!! • Ja'juan is a miracle as well!! She was street contacted by elders in an...

 Hey yall! It was a super fun, eventful week! We had a blast as always. Missionary life isn't all cupcakes and rainbows, but the Lord helps me to see so much good as I look back on each week. It's really cool! Let's get into it...... Some happy things and what I learned from them: • We had 2 awesome lessons with Dillan and Larissa this week! We taught them the restoration and the spirit was so strong. But also, Larissa has never really learned anything about Jesus Christ's life, so we told her about the story of Him healing the woman with an issue of blood. And the spirit was so strong as we explained how He is so aware of each one of us. Larissa was in awe! It was cool! • Dillan and Larissa came to our ward Christmas party and met everyone!! It was so fun! It was an interesting ward Christmas party. There was a really bad performance of the 12 days of Christmas lol. • SO! Here is what everyone has been waiting for since my last email. The update on the Raiders player!!...

  Hey yall!! It was such a great week. I just had a blast. Let's get into it....... Some happy things and what I learned from them: • We are teaching the cutest family! The dad is a member, but has been inactive since he was 14. He asked us to come and teach his wife about what happens after we die last week (remember?) and this week he asked us to teach her about the purpose of life! So we did and we invited her to be baptized. She said that she wants to be baptized!! Such a miracle! We are excited for Dylan and Larissa! • We found a Raiders football player and he is excited to learn about the Plan of Salvation! We will keep you updated on him! His name is Amari if you want to send me his stats or something. He was whippin out of his driveway to go to practice and we waved him down!! • Sister Broberg and I found 6 people in our area on exchanges! It was a blast! • Then Sister Haughey and I found 9 people on exchanges in her area! Many miracles on exchanges! • We had such a fun tim...
