week 25: I'm sick and tired of this 🤧

 don't worry guys I LOVE BEING A MISSIONARY! but i am literally sick. and very tired of it. three boxes of tissues down, one more to go! it's been the longest most miserable week of my life (not really) but being sick as a missionary is the worst because all I want to do is go out and share the gospel but I can't cause I'm too miserable to function :)



spiritual thought: when there's a will there's a way! even while we were sick we found 5 new friends this week! through being faithful and diligent and following the spirit we were still able to share the gospel with God's children! 
Philippians 4:13
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

MONDAY
we had a zone activity which was so much fun! it was like a missionary game show called the Altar of Sacrifice. my team didn't win. yikes. then we ate tacos and they were yummy. afterwards we went to the mall with the sisters cause the elders basically kicked us out of the gym. then we got home and felt icky and took a nap

TUESDAY
we were still sick so we decided it was best we stay home and rest. we spent the day taking naps, contacting our friends and playing card games lol

WEDNESDAY
we had some lessons and I still felt sick so we asked the elders for another blessing and then went to our lessons.. but they both canceled so we went back home and slept

THURSDAY
we had district council/interviews so of course we had to go. I think this was the most miserable day for me tho.. President Brockbank asked if he could give me another blessing, he said "I'm not saying the other two won't work, I'd just like to add my faith" 
I wonder how many times he's had sisters cry throughout their whole interview 😂 but he could tell I was miserable and told me to go back home and sleep some more so that's exactly what we did! (after we went to the store for more tissues) 

FRIDAY
we were feeling a bit better but still not good enough to go out.. until randomly sister Fluckiger said "we have to go knock.. just 30 minutes" and I said "huh?!" which like yeah I was sick of sitting inside too but what on earth was she thinking??
so we went out and the first door we knocked on nobody was home but Veronica pulled up and we introduced ourselves and she didn't seem very interested but by the end of our conversation we had set up a lesson! in 20 minutes we talked to 5 people, got two return appointments and gave out a book of mormon! it was amazing! 

SATURDAY 
we still weren't 100% better but tried to have a regular missionary day, had a few lessons and stop bys and felt miserable again..

SUNDAY
Sister Fluckiger got miserable to the point that I was at on Wednesday but we still tried to go to church.. after sacrament we decided we needed to go back home and rest some more.. it's hard to take care of your body when you feel guilty for staying inside 😅

hey uh if you got this far thanks for reading my email! love ya and please email me cause I love hearing from y'all!

 hey y'all this week as been wild. I don't even remember half of it. let's get into it.. prayer list: Taylor and Dylan  Carley  Jesse  Brandon Chuck  google photos:  https://photos.app.goo.gl/o1Wmow78ZBW55WZd8 spiritual thought: I listened to this talk while preparing to write my talk on sunday! it's called "It's a Miracle" by Elder Neil L. Andersen and I wanted to share this part of it "Brothers and sisters, as surely as the Lord has inspired more missionaries to serve, He is also awakening the minds and opening the hearts of more good and honest people to receive His missionaries. You already know them or will know them. They are in your family and live in your neighborhood. They walk past you on the street, sit by you in school, and connect with you online. You too are an important part of this unfolding miracle.  If you’re not a full-time missionary with a missionary badge pinned on your coat, now is the time to paint one on your heart—painted, a...

Image
  hey fam, I know I know, the title of my email doesn't make sense cause we JUST got a new car like 3 weeks ago... surprise! we got a new car again! it's been a good week :)  can I ask a favor? can y'all pray for my friends? I know prayer is powerful and it works :) prayer list: Lori Jesse Taylor and Dylan Justin  Brandon Lashawna McKenzie google photos:  https://photos.app.goo.gl/o1Wmow78ZBW55WZd8 spiritual thought: I studied a talk by President Russell M Nelson called "The Everlasting Covenant" and I learned about "hesed" which is a Hebrew word for a special kind of covenantal love! "Because of our covenant with God, He will never tire in His efforts to help us, and we will never exhaust His merciful patience with us"  when we are baptized we enter into a covenant relationship with God which binds us to Him and because of that He has a special kind of love for us and will continue to work with us and give us opportunities to change. He loves ...

I'm not sure how we're halfway through April and apparently Ohio doesn't either cause it's still freezing! it better warm up soon.. anyways how are you all?!  here's my google photos:  https://photos.app.goo.gl/o1Wmow78ZBW55WZd8 spiritual thought: okay so I LOVED general conference and if yall didn't get a chance to listen then go do it, if you did.. listen again. it was sooo good! one of my favorite talks was Receive His Gift by Elder Patrick Kearon. here's the link https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2025/04/55kearon?lang=eng he talks about receiving the gift and really understanding the fact that you are a child of God!  "You may be wondering, “What do I have to do to receive this gift from God?” Well, actually, nothing. It is a gift from the Giver. It is simply a fact. Just let it in. You are His child. You are beloved of Him. Do not complicate it. Do not block the receiving of this gift...
