Sister Sariah Faith

 Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas!! Welcome to a week in the life of Sister Francis. Zone conference was this week!!! Our transfer focus is Building Christlike Attributes through Our Missionary Purpose. We are focusing on chapters 1 and 6 from Preach My Gospel! I got to teach one of the breakout rooms again! I had the missionaries do some pondering and studying. It was super awesome! I love being able to teach!  We had a great lesson with our friend Matt this week! He's on date for baptism!!!! It was Dec 11th but he didn't come to church so we will be reevaluating it with him when we meet again. But! The lesson we did have was so good! Sister Fidler joined us! We taught the Gospel of Jesus Christ. While discussing the Gift of the Holy Ghost the Spirit was sooo strong! There were a couple tears in Matt's eyes, so sweet! We testified of how the Holy Ghost can comfort, guide, warn and testify of truth. It was powerful. Later that evening we met with the Henderson Famil...

 Family and friends, hello! We met with Donald and Ashley this past Tuesday! Brother and Sister Cox were able to join us! We taught them about the Word of Wisdom. It was wonderful because they already are mostly keeping it!!! Please continue to keep them in your prayers! We had another super good lesson with Jordan and Sebastian, her husband! We taught them the Restoration lesson! They accepted copies of the Book of Mormon and said they would read! They wanted to look into it a little more before setting up a return appointment but we are excited for them. I know that this is the Restored Church of Jesus Christ in the Latter-Days. We do have a living Prophet who leads and guides us! It's a wonderful miracle. Wednesday was a busy day! We left our apartment at 8 am and drove 2 1/2 hours to Charleston for MLC! It was so wonderful! We had a great discussion with President and Sister Lindahl and the rest of the mission leadership. Great things are happening here in the WVCM! We had a de...

  Well, hello family and friends! Welcome, welcome to my week. First, transfers were this Thursday and Sister Livingston and I are staying together!! Wahoo!!!! It will be the best!!! This officially makes Sister Livingston the companion I've been with the longest! I'm excited for the things we will accomplish these next five weeks! Tuesday we had the opportunity to do some service for a sweet lady in the ward. We helped her sweep, mop and vacuum some rooms in her home. It was so much fun!! We talked and laughed the entire time. Afterward, Sister Livingston and I had planned to knock some of the doors around her. The first door we knocked was a nice girl named Jordan! She had a couple of minutes so we testified of the Atonement of Jesus Christ and gave her a pamphlet. It was wonderful! A couple doors later we met Rick! He let us in and we began sharing the Restoration. About halfway through he asked us some questions about our other beliefs! We ended with giving him a copy of th...

 Welcome family and friends to this weeks email!! Transfers are on Thursday! I'll let everyone know what happens next week! I got a little sick this week, so that was exciting! I tested negative for covid, though, so we continued working! We met with Donald and Ashley! They are doing good. We went over feeling the Spirit and Lehi's Tree of Life vision. We showed the Book of Mormon video along with it which helped so much! We invited Donald to pray about if these things really are true. Please pray for him! Later that day we met with Matt! Last Thursday Sister Smith and I met him on exchanges! We had given him a Book of Mormon. We went back and taught the Restoration! He had read everything up to about 1 Nephi 3, including the testimonies from the 3 and 8 Witnesses and the Prophet Joseph Smith. It was awesome! He had also looked up the Church and was asking questions about the Word of Wisdom. We invited him to continue reading and to come to church! He ended up not coming but we...
