Does God hear us? Does he actually care about me? Is God my Heavenly Father? The answer to these questions is simple. Yes! God hears you. He loves you. And he IS your loving Heavenly Father. Pray and ask and He will give you the answers you are seeking at this time. He may not answer immediately, but His answers come in His own time, in His own ways. "Gods love is there for you whether or not you feel you deserve love. It is simply always there."- President Thomas S. Monson Want to learn more about growing closer to your Heavenly Father?

This book is by far my favorite book to read. Today, I finished reading it for the 4th time on my mission and I always seem to learn something new from it every time I read it. The Book of Mormon has helped me to know how to become a better missionary. It truly does testify of Christ and how we can become like him. It helps us to know more about the Plan that God has in store for us. Most importantly, it teaches us how to  repent and to know how to make amends. Repentance is never a hard thing. Yes, at times it is. But repentance is such a blessing. I have been able to feel a burden that I didn't know was there be lifted off of my shoulders by asking God and others for forgiveness. I love being able to repent daily. Not for the big mistakes I made, but for the small ones that we as people make daily. God wants to forgive and help you to move on. So the question is, will you let Him? Want to learn more about the Book of Mormon or about repentance?

So sorry about last week! My phone decided it didn't want to send my email to you guys and I found out the next day! I was just as shocked as you guys!!  But, the week before went great! We gave Bob a church tour and he absolutely loved it!! He wasn't able to come to church the day after, but he promised that he would be coming this Sunday. AND HE DID!!! He said he loved it!! He is on date to be baptized  July 7 ! He is so excited!! But, back to the week before. Last P-Day we went to Frankenmuth. We were able to see the biggest Christmas store in the world! It's called Bronners and it's AMAZING!! I'll try to send some pictures later after this email gets to you.   This week, we had to drop a lot of investigators. It was pretty sad. But, we are hoping to be able to pick up new investigators through Door knocking, referrals, and former investigators. Hopefully we see lots of miracles!! We had 3 investigators at church this Sunday!! All of them are on date! We

Happy Fathers Day to this amazing man who has truly taught me to walk in the light. I've always been a daddy's girl since day one. I've always wanted to be like my dad. I wanted to work hard like him, play rough, be cool, and most importantly serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. My dad talked about his mission with pride. He showed us a picture once of him on his mission, and since that day, I felt the Spirit whisper to me that one day, I would  also serve a mission like My daddy. My dad has been my rock and a huge help and comfort to me as I have tried to become better every single day. My dad is the kindest and hardest working man I know. He has told me every single time I try something new to 1st. Work my tail off and 2nd. Never give up. My dad inspires me daily to keep trying. I am so grateful that families are forever and that my dad will always be MY dad. I LOVE YOU DAD! HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!! (Included a video of Sister Olsen and

Wow sounds like you had a great birthday!! Did you get the video that one of our members here sent to you over Facebook? Her name is Sarita Bills. She's a sweetheart. We didn't take much pictures this week so sorry about that! We had trade offs  on Tuesday  so we were in Mt. Pleasant for a day. It was pretty fun. I was with Sister O'Toole. She's Awesome! We went doorknocking together. It was fun. I bought two new dresses last Monday, and I have been getting the clothes you are sending. I'm in need of dresses more than anything though   This week has been super fun though! We were able to put two investigators on baptismal date so in total we now have 4 people on date to be baptized. We plan to put someone else on date soon as well but he is struggling with the Word of Wisdom. Pray for Bob!! We have been trying to stay away from Wi-Fi this week so thar we don't get distracted by Facebook haha. It is such a temptation! We are doing good with it now thou

His love never fails. Either in the hardest or easiest times. His love is always there. At times we don't think we deserve it, or even think that God has abandoned us. But God never turns away from us. We turn away from Him. So however small your faith is at this time in your life, turn to God. He will help to nourish the seed of Faith that you have planted. It will begin to grow. Your faith will one day turn to a knowing. Want to learn more about the plan that God has for you? Check out  mormon.org   😊
