REST IN PEACE GREAT GRANDMA. ON TO THE CK!(4/10/17)


This week has been one of the best on my mission thus far. Kind of strange seeing how my great grandma passed away, but my heart has so much peace in my decision to serve a mission and to continue serving even through the hard times. I will miss my great grandma dearly and the world truly will not be the same without her, I will miss going to Overton to visit. She loved to tell EVERYBODY at church that I was going on a mission. I know she was so proud of me and I'll forever treasure the moments I spent with her. But while I should be in heartache, I am completely at peace and I feel closer to her than ever! I got a call from my mom saying my great grandma had passed away, it was hard and I cried a lot! I really am learning crying is okay.. I got a blessing that night though and was told that she is with me and I will be able to feel her presence and oh how true that is! It's so weird to think she won't be there when I get married or have kids, but then I stop and remind myself that she is going to be in the temple with me and that she is with my future children getting to know them before I do,and that she wont need to hear my mission stories because she is right by my side experiencing it first hand.and that is why I'm at peace, it is so special to me that think about. Every time I see a butterfly I think of her, and I have been seeing them ALL THE TIME since she passed! It was so good to be able to talk to my family this week even though it was for such a sad reason. know that I am where the Lord wants me, there was a very brief moment while i was talkkng to my mom on the phone where I considered going home because of her passing but I know that I made the right decision in staying out here in Kansas! We have been seeing so many miracles and I am so grateful to be a missionary! One of the best miracles we saw was with a lady named Amanda! She kind of just fell out of the sky and is super open and really wants to get baptized! The Lord is so good! I love being a missionary! I love you all so much!😙
