Dear Family!
Can you believe June is already
here? I can't believe it has been
almost a year since I have seen y'all. The time has been flying by. One thing that was hard for me was feeling like I could
have/should have been a better missionary at the beginning of my mission.
My
dear friend Sister Keller told
me not to judge myself 6 months ago based on what I now know. Life is
meant to be lived in crescendo. We are constantly learning new things.
A lot of missionaries are nearing the
end of their missions. Their
attitudes have been: I have to sprint for the finish. That is great,
but some are scared to go
home because it is ''the end'' I like the analogy of the end of a
mission being
a springboard for the rest of eternity. The mission is a very condensed
time of spiritual growth and
I find myself constantly saying, I am so glad I learned this or that,
because I
know I will need that as a wife and mother. I am so grateful to be
serving right here, right now. Heavenly Father truly loves us. I can
see evidence of that everyday.
This week we came in contact with
and taught an investigator we haven't seen since January. She is super solid, but because of crazy
work schedules, she can only come to church once a week. Please pray for her.
And Carlos and his mother are
amazing missionaries. They have
been inviting everyone they know to church and church activities. Member missionary, they do out of love,
for the gospel and their friends. Ah,
I love this church so much! People
will see the blessings of righteous living; so don't be afraid to share your
light and the reason for the hope within you.
I love you all!!!!! Have a fantastic week!!!
Liebe Grüße
Sister Turner
