Tear Jerker Alert

Hi!!! Happy Monday!   This week was very tragic for the Renton community. I'm feeling extra grateful for my Savior Jesus Christ, my family and loved ones!!! Three families in various wards/ congregations had family members involved in a car accident resulting in the two oldest Wilcoxson girls (Matilda and Eloise), Sister Andrea Hudson, and Buster Brown (Bishop Brown's son) passed away. Nolan and Charlotte Hudson are in the hospital in critical condition.  Stake conference was Sunday. Brother Wilcoxon attended and not only was he there but he also spoke. He bore powerful testimony of the Savior to the stake. The reality of the atonement is very real to him at this time he said. He just lost his two young teenage daughters and he does not doubt. He believes so strongly. He pled with everyone questioning to search and continue to search until they know and then to keep looking. Friday comes for each of us. I hope to be as prepared as Brother Wilcoxson.  Our hearts are heavy ...

BLESS UP for it being in the 70's this weekend!! I've been livin in MIAMI We had a lot of plans fall through this week so we did a lot of contacting. It was SO nice just walking outside in the sun and talking to people  BRO GET THIS: I am so concerned just writing and reminiscing on these memories. Basically while visiting people this week we had not one but TWO times where their freaking dog ended up just straight up LICKING them for 10 minutes. Different people. Different dogs. WUT.  One lady let her dog lick her FOOT. Like up and down, inside and out. Everywhere on her foot for our entire visit. So alarming. Disclaimer: if you let your dog lick you and this offends you... stop letting your dog lick you....Please EXCHANGE: I got to stay in Renton with Sister Bartlett. She is a SWEETIE and really fun so i loved getting to know her more!  MIRACLE: On our exchange we did service for a RED DOT. Usually people are made red dots if they arent fond of the missionaries...T...

Heyyy bffs! This week was absolutely nuts, I swear the weeks keep getting more chaotic everytime.  My BESTIE KAILEY SANNAR left me, then I was in a LIT trio with Sister Johnson and Sister Debloois! They are so fun. We went on a GOOD dab spree for those couple days. However during our time together we each got white wash calls (which means they take all the missionaries out of the area and replace them with new ones). Moral of the story, all together we whitewashed 4 areas. So that was interesting, kinda stressful but we survived. TRANSFERS: I love going to transfers and seeing so many friends!! I got transferred to good ole R-Town. Renton is more south in the mission than I'm used to so I'm excited for a change. South= a more humble crowd and it's already been very cool to see how willing/open people are to learning more about Jesus Christ.  My new companion is Sister Melton, she is a sweetie cutie petite little dumpling sugar plum! I served with her i...

Hey boys anotha week in the books!  So quick run down Sister Sannar and I got knocked out by a little cold this week but thankfully made a quick recovery for the weekend  EMILIE GOT DUNKED  Our friend Emilie got baptized on Saturday!!!She's a cute 10 year old who has been waiting a long time to get baptized while some family set backs got resolved! She bore her testimony in Primary about trusting in lord. I love what she said about having patience and having faith that everything will work out! What a wise soul for a little body. It has been a joy to teach her and witness the miracles in her life  Funny moments of da week: HOTEL MOTEL HOLIDAY INN: We were having dinner with a young family and they had their little girl say the prayer before we left. She prayed that we would "travel to our hotel safely." So thats where the email title comes from. Love living in a hotel  COOKED UP A BEAT in the recording studio, our ward mission leader was so kind to voluntee...
