HENGELLINEN SANOMA 🎁 "I recall praying to God with great fervency and reverence, asking for help to cope with that challenging trial. In that instant, I received a clear and powerful spiritual assurance in my heart: Everything will be fine in our lives if...I endure, holding on to the joy that comes from living the gospel of Jesus Christ."  - Reverence for Sacred Things I thought I'd keep yall on your toes and put my spiritual thought first...Alright so I had the opportunity to listen to this talk last week and I really love the message here. In Finnish they say "kaikki järjestyy" which means "all is organized" which I love, because when you think about it everything really is organized. God is in the details of YOUR life. All He wants is for you to find comfort and He knows that is ALWAYS found His Son, so He'll always direct you to Him. How can you add more Jesus to your life? He's always gonna be there for you, whether you see Him there or ...

Unfortunately this week's email has gotta be short also SORRY for the lack of email last week! We've was running around like mad women haha BUT I have some miracles I want to share with all of yall! I can truly testify God is a God of miracles.  🩵 Guys I've really been wanting to bear my testimony of Jesus Christ to someone recently. Since it feels like I don't get the opportunity on the street often. So I asked a couple I saw by the train station if they were religious, they were, I asked to bear my testimony of Jesus Christ, they said yes, so I bore my testimony! And then she looks at me (this middle aged Finnish lady) and asks me in Finnish (title) "Can I give you a hug?" And so yeah I hugged some random Finnish lady and she thanked me for sharing my testimony :)  🩵 Went on a short "splits" were I was with my MTC companion Sister Luke! It was so fun to run it back with her, and we had a huge miracle where a guy basically reffered himself! From w...

HAUKKUMINEN  New obsession unlocked this week, it is... 🥁🥁🥁🥁 GLÖGI a Finnish Christmas time drink (yes I know it's the beginning of October) and it is way too delicious.  ASIOITA  🎀 Splits with the STLS in Marjaniemi! Sister Heathcote is such a good missionary and it was super cool to see the strong bonds of friendship she still had with these people from way back in "her first area".  👨‍👩‍👧 DC blitz miracle! While out on them streets looking for people interested in our message of sugar, spice, Jesus Christ, and everything nice we found a couple (and a cute baby) who we had a fantastic conversation with! We gave them a Book of Mormon and had yet another amazing opportunity to bear our witness of Christ.  🍞 When in doubt and haven't seen a recent convert at church in a long time, bring them sourdough bread. Works every time. Seriously such a cool experience and great opportunity to bear simple powerful testimony.  👸 (<---- kunningatar) You...

HAUKKUMINEN ⁉️ This week was a fast one! Although to be fair they all go super fast, haha. To recap because I don't talk about this stuff super often BUT I've been a missionary for about 7 months now, in Finland about 5, and I'm in my 3rd transfer of 8. Crazy to think I'll probably be back in America this time next year!  ASIOITA  💄Got our makeup done by a Venezuelan member, I literally couldn't recognize myself 👩‍🏫 School Presentation! I got to give a quick 15 minute summary of our beliefs in Finnish to a class, which was a super neat experience because I could really feel the spirit there in the room :) - Lots more to this but basically we along with someone representing Judaism and someone who was Pentecostal representing general Christianity were able to share our beliefs and Sister Potter had the harder job of being a panel where the kids could ask us all questions SUPER cool opportunity though and afterward 2 girls asked us more questions and we were able t...
