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." 


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 not. He is there. He is with you.

🎃 My old companion went home?! I love you Sister Potter thank you for all the laughs and amazing food, we really cheffed up! 

🎃 I love all the members in Marjaniemi!!! Guys, a blessed member drove Sister Potter and I to the train station on transfer day so we weren't hauling all our luggage through the metro. Thank you thank you thank you!! 

🎃 We carved pumpkins today for part of our pday activities and PLAYED SO MUCH VOLLEYBALL. I LOVE VOLLEYBALL. 

🎃 1% better. There are so many ways I want to improve and change and I'm starting to realize it's just 1% better. I just need to keep striving and God can take my 1% and make it a permanent change for good! 

🎃 Just here to say I love Halloween. Everyone watch fun Halloween movies, spent time with your families, dress up, and enjoy the beautiful fall weather! (and if you're reading this as a missionary uh enjoy the fall weather as you serve God's children!) 

YAPPIN' 🤠
NO TIME TO YAP AS I AM OUT OF TIME AGAIN AHHH Uhm I moved to the city of Turku nicknamed "the city of love" by the missionaries...I guess we'll see if I can figure out why it's called that while I'm here....I'm going to grow my love for my Savior Jesus Christ! 

I love you all and miss you. Updates and emails are always welcome and I'll respond as soon as I can (sorry I'm not always the best at that!) 

Kaikki järjestyy,
🩵 Sisar Dickson

 HAUKKUMINEN  It was super funny we got an airfryer at mission tour, our mission is in the process of getting them out to all the missionaries! They're super handy for making food fast which is such a blessing as a busy missionary BUT what was funny is that we had to carry this huge airfryer box all the way back home on public transport and stuff and someone said "(the title of this email) =Congratulations on the Airfryer!" It made me giggle.  PÄIVITYKSET  🔥 Mission Tour! aka the area president and his wife spoke with half of the missionaries in the mission and it was SO powerful. I had gone into "mission tour" wanting to know that the Lord was aware of me and the very first talk given by our lovely sister mission president (the wife of our mission president, she loves to say there is two mission presidents including herself haha I love her) talked about something I have been struggling with for a long time now. Soooo in case anyone was wondering...God is aware...

Hiya everyone, this is my mom. (trainer)  Her name is Sister Wynn, she's going home this week and I am going to miss her so much. She has been such an example to me, from day 1, of Christlike love and charity. I love you Wynn!  But in other news, transfers are in a week. A WEEK! I swear the transfers just feel faster and faster and before I know it I'm going to be back home-so wild to think about.  Yay for Finnish boxing-day and celebrating Christmas for 3 days! We have so many lovely members who are gonna take us in during the holiday, AND my comp and I did some fun christmas things for each other too. We also had a Christmas Conference and I got to sing some songs! (serious shoutout to Aimee and being my inspiration to sing My Grown Up Christmas List)  But with it being Christmas time I think it appropriate to share a special spiritual thought focusing on the greatest gift of them all: Our dear savior and friend, Jesus Christ.  This Child divine...
