Week Three of Holly Springs/Zone Conference/First Exchange

     Whoo what a week. It has been so fun. Thank you all SO MUCH for all the letters, packages and emails. If I've missed you in a call or didn't send you something back, I promise it's not that it went unappreciated, its just that there is so much to do and I'm sorry. I have felt so loved, please don't stop sending anything, I just have learned that I need to actually read through them slowly throughout the week and be able to respond in some small way. Don't worry when you send them because I'll read them when I have time. 

    I had so much growth this week, It was my first exchange with the Zone Leaders which is super fun. They are in Olive Branch, which is awesome. I got a letter from Uncle Jim and Aunt DeAnne in the mail and my companion said "Oh my gosh, I know them." They were my next door neighbors for years and they are still in our ward. So that WAS an amazing tender mercy. 

    This week was interesting with miracles. We met a lot of people. People said that miracles have ceased but I want to assure and testify that they haven't. They happen everyday to millions of people. It just may not be seen as a miracle or seen by more than one person on this earth. But I promise you they happen and they are phenomenal. We got the amazing chance to go and minister to a lady who was sick and we could feel the power of legions of angels and felt specific peoples influence as they were there. I have learned so much more about how priesthood power and authority works. And subsequently miracles. If any of you haven't read President Nelson's talk spiritual treasures listen to it and understand the priesthood. https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2019/10/36nelson?lang=eng

    There is so much power that we have access to that Satan wants us to think we don't have. I also realized that miracles aren't performed for everyone because many times. There are so many more blessings by God holding his hand. 

I want to testify that Thanksgiving is a Holliday first for giving thanks to God and I hope you can first of all give many prayers of thanks this week before we eat food or watch football. I love this talk. https://speeches.byu.edu/talks/harold-hansen/observing-thanksgiving-day/

    I love you all and I'm so thankful to be able to be seeing the Lord Jesus truly is the Christ and I know that he restored His church exactly when it was first possible. I love ya'll and I hope you're all doing well. 

Prayers,

Health and love, and strength

Roxanne, Darryl, Pearl

Pray that Rico will feel the confirmation of a date for baptism. 

That me and my companion can have strength to fight off Satan and find those who are seeking truth and that when we leave there may be angels guarding them from the influences of Satan.
