Sept 10
Hello family and friends!
It has been another great week here in Bay City Michigan!
So on Wednesday we had trade offs with the STLs in Mount Pleasant. So I was the one that was driving there. And as I was driving I GOT PULLED OVER!!! It was my first time ever! I was freaking out. So I pulled over. And I know that I was speeding cause we have a tiwi. And it didn't check my speed. So the cop came to my window and he explained that I was going fast for being in a school zone. The lights were blinking but I didn't notice. He was kind enough with only giving me a warning! So that was exciting.
Anyway that night I had trade offs with Sister Grant. We went door knocking and personal contacting like all day. It was fun! As we were PCing we talked to this teenage girl. And we explained who we were. She was very nice. We had a really good conversation with her. And then her friend came and sat with us and talked with us as well. We gave both of them a BOM. It was just a really cool experience. And then that night we went door knocking in the rain. And we handed out 2 BOMs. Totally worth it :)
On Friday we did family history with our recent convert B. He was just so excited to do this work for his family. We printed out names for his mom and step dad and his grandparents. And then on Saturday he went to the temple. We weren't able to go with him. But he told us how it was. And he loved it!! He is just awesome! I love him!
On Saturday we dropped by a couple referrals that we received from this Sister Missionary in California. It was her brother and sister N and H. They were both very nice and accepting. N said we could come by any time. And we gave H our number so she could contact us. She seemed interested in meeting with us.
And yesterday we had a lesson with the M family. A and her two kids. They will be getting baptized this Saturday!! I am so excited. They are all progressing really well. And they just love this Gospel so much! I can see the light of Christ in them just glowing. And that just makes me so happy.
I love this work so much!! I know I say that a lot but it's true! Love you all!!

Hello family and friends!Wow! I can't believe that it's September already! Time is just flying by!So I don't remember everything this week! It was all a blur. But I will try my best.So last Monday night we went to T's house to meet her foreign exchange student C who is from Thailand. She gave us some tai food. She gave us some squid-it wasn't the gross slimmy kind-it was like the texture of jerky kind. It was pretty good and spicy. And she gave is some other weird food as well.
Anyway, C and his wife were also there. C first asked Sister Anderson why she came out on her mission and what made her go. Sister Anderson bore a powerful testimony of why she came out here. She's awesome! And then he asked how we came to know that the BOM was true. I was able to bear my testimony to him and share the experience with him of how reading the BOM every day and how that has changed me. I love bearing my testimony to people of how the BOM is true! It was just a really neat experience. They even invited us over for dinner the next night.Saturday we had a lesson with A and her two kids, A and A who will be getting baptized in a couple of weeks! We taught them the 10 commandments, obedience, and obeying and honoring the law. We focused more on keeping the Sabbath day Holy and the sacrament. Then we got into the Atonement. A opened up to us more. It was a really good lesson.We've also being doing lots of Less active and former investigator finding. We had a funny experience yesterday.So we were dropping by a less active, W. And she lived in an apartment building so to get in we had to be buzzed in. We called her over the intercom thingy And she answered. And we explained how we are the Sister Missionaries from the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints. And she told us that we don't believe in Jesus Christ and she just basically gave us the anti. It was funny. But we still love her :)This is all I can remember from this week! But I want to let you all know that I am super happy and that I am totally loving this work! It's crazy to think that in hit my 7 month mark this week! Time is just flying by!I love you all! Have a happy Monday :)Sister Beeson

Hello Family and Friends!This week was so so so GOOD!!! Here are the highlights:So on Monday night we got a phone call from this guy from Utah. And we were talking to him and then he asked if we ever saw the movie "Love Kennedy."We both told him no, but that we heard of it. Anyway,he told us that he is Kennedy's dad! What the!! He told us how he gets lots of emails and this one day he had a feeling to open his inbox. And so he did. And he received this email from this lady named D. And D watched the movie. And after she did she just wanted to change her life around. So she basically told him her life story and that she wants missionaries to come to her house like it showed in the movie.
So the next day we went to see her. And OH MY!! BEST LESSON EVER! We were there a little too long! But it was very effective. We were also able to meet her 3 kids and her husband. And they all seemed interested! They were just so nice! They said that we are welcome in their home. I love them so much!! I will attach a couple videos of how excited we were!On Thursday night we were dropping by some former investigators. And me and Sister Anderson both felt that we needed to do something else. So we pulled over and prayed. After we prayed I had the feeling to knock a couple of houses. So we got put of the car and knocked the first house. The guy said be wasn't interested at all. Sad day.
But we saw this lady across the street sitting on her porch. So we walked over and said hi to her. We explained to her that we are missionaries. She was nice and seemed interested. She told us that she was christian and that she believes in Jesus Christ. And so I asked her how she shows her faith in Jesus Christ. And she said she prays. She explained to us that she doesn't go to church anymore but she said she wants to again.So we invited her to church. We gave her the address and said that we would try to find transportation. We also gave her a BOM and testified how it can bring us closer to Christ. And then we gave her our number and told her to call us anytime. We then asked her if she needed anything. And when we said that she just started to cry. She explained to us how alone she has felt. She said her son was on a camping trip or something and how she was all by herself. She explained that it meant a lot that we came over to talk to her. And then Sister Anderson pulled out her phone and read her a quote. And the spirit was totally there. This lady started to cry, and me being a sympathic cryer... I started to cry. We both just gave her a hug and just expressed our love for her and God's love for her. I can't wait to meet with her soon :)God is very much aware of all of us! I felt God's perfect love for S and D! They are precious daughters of God.I love this work so much! It truly is the best! Love you all!Sister Beeson

Hi Mom!
That's so crazy that school is already starting!! Time is serisouly just flying by!
I can't believe Andy is going to be a freshman? And Jack is going to American Heritage! That's awesome. When can he start his mission papers? Do you think he'll be gone before I get back?
I have loved serving here in Bay City! And I love serving with Sister Anderson. She's awesome!I decided to not do the whole Monday through Sunday thing. Cause I can't remember everything and it's just easier. So I will share with you the highlights.
A couple nights ago we were able to bear our testimony to some girls of how being on a mission has increased our faith and also why we are here serving the Lord for 18 months. And they seemed really interested. The spirit was definitely there. It was just a really cool experience! And we just want to focus on them. But I just love them all!We also visited a recent convert B as well. He is going through a really hard time right now. And he thinks it's God punishing him. He kinda was just venting to us. But as I was sitting there listening to him, I felt God's perfect love for him. It was just a feeling I can't describe. I hope and pray that he feels of that love as well. Afterwards we cleaned his house. I did the dishes while Sister Anderson swept and vaccumed and did some other things. I just love serving others because I forget myself and focus on the person we are serving.So as of right now we don't have any one to teach. So we did a lot of less active and former investigator hunting :) no one has been interested. But we know that as we keep going and just press foward that we will witness miracles. It's been good for us. I just love this work. It's hard but SO WORTH IT! I've grown so much these last 6 months. I've come to know that God is aware of all of us. And that he perfectly understands what we're going through. I just LOVE BEING A MISSIONARY!We also had a really cool experience a couple of days ago. Someone that Sister Anderson used to teach got baptized on Saturday. So we drove to Midland to attend the baptism. And this lady -her name is Judy-is partially paralyzed. So she has a wheelchair. So we did the baptism at a community center. So an Elder and a member from the Midland ward were trying to baptize her. But they were just having a hard time because she was in her wheelchair. Long story short, she was baptized and it was such an amazing experience!Thank you all for your prayers. I can truly feel them! Love you all!Sister Beeson

She's been reading the BOM and enjoys reading with her family! She is on date for September 8th :) her and her mom also came to church! So that was amazing!We went to see our good friend Sister B. We haven't seen her in such a long time! So we dropped by and gave her a frosty and talked about missionary work! She's awesome! She loves doing missionary work! So we gave her a few Book of Mormons and a stack of ITL cards. She was so excited to pass them out! She's so amazing! I love her.We were able to see F one last time before I left! We haven't seen him in a while so it was really good to see him. He looked really happy to see us! We were able to sit with him just for a little bit. But he is struggling right now so hopefully he will want to get back into the lessons soon!And we were also able to drop by and see my favorite person ever! L! I love her so much! She gave me a gift and said she gave it to me so I could remember her! And it was a sign that said you + me = awesome haha! She's so funny! I will miss her a lot!And we are about finished with the mural for S. We did lots of painting. But I loved it! It was a lot of fun. I may not be good with painting but I'm getting there :)I really did enjoy being in Portland. I know that that's where I was supposed to start my mission!

But I want you all to know that I am doing so so so good! I am super duper happy and I just love being a missionary!Love you all!Sister Beeson
Dear family and friends!Wow! I can't believe it's August already! Crazy! Well this week was good as usual, here are the highlights:Monday: We had a lesson with a lady named A. She has been so busy lately but we were finally able to meet with her. And it was a really good lesson. We taught her the restoration. And I was able to quote some of Joseph Smith's first vision to her. It was seriously one of the best restoration lessons! I could tell that she felt the spirit. :)Tuesday: We served S. We are still painting the mural for her. It is coming along though. I hope we'll be able to finish it by the end of this week. I love S! She is the sweetest!Wednesday: We had zone conference. It was a very nice reunion with all my MTC buddies. Can I just say how amazing President and Sister Brennan are! They are the best! I love how whenever they speak to us the spirit is always so strong and powerful. President Brennan shared some cool stories and pictures from his mission. He talked a lot about the Book of Mormon and how powerful it can be in someone's conversion. It was SO GOOD!! So at the end of the conference he gave every companionship a box of Book of Mormons.Thursday: We had a lesson with M, who is a recent convert. We focused on the Plan of Salvation. It was an alright lesson; she gets distracted a lot but I still love her. Then we had a lesson withsomeone with B. We read 1 Nephi 1 with her, her mom and her grandparents. Afterwards we just talked about the importance of the BOM and we both just shared our testimonies. At the end of the lesson we asked her if she remembered what we invited her to do the last time (which was thinking on baptism, she said she would think about it) she nodded her head, and she was silent for a while and then she said "I want to be baptized!" I seriously got the chills and butterflies when she said that! Haha! I was so happy. I couldn't stop smiling. We put her on baptismal date for September 8th. Yay!Later, we went to have a lesson with a less active, Sister P. We read a chapter out of the BOM with her, we read 3 Nephi 11 with her. Whenever we read the BOM with her, the spirit always enters in her home. It's a very sweet feeling :)Friday: We visited a member from the branch who was baptized a year ago. His name is C. He was very active in the lesson. We talked about faith and Prophets and that kinda led into Joseph Smith. He made really good comments and asked good questions. The spirit was definitely there.Saturday: J WAS BAPTIZED!!! YAY! It was such a good day. He was very nervous at first but once he was baptized you could just see how happy he was. It's a miracle to witness one of God's precious children enter the waters of baptism! I am so happy for J and the decision he made. Happy day! President and Sister Brennan also came to his baptism. I was a bit nervous, but they enjoyed it :)Sunday: After church our ward had a linger longer. They had food and tables all set up. Because two people from our branch got married-we all celebrated with them. It was fun. We decided to take a plate of food to our dear friend Bro. U. And we visited with him and talked to him about prayer. I think he really appreciated the lesson. He is so sweet.Later during the evening we visited the H family. They talk a lot! So we quickly showed them the "Shower of Heavenly Blessings" video. And we talked about ways how Heavenly Father has blessed our lives. It was good. I love the H family so much!But I am sad because President Brennan told me that I was going to be transferred! I will miss Portland and the members so much! But I am grateful for 6 months I was able to serve here in Portland!I love this work and I love you all! Thanks for all the love and support 😊😊Sister Beeson

July 30th
Dear family and friends!
I don't remember a lot of what I did, but here are some of the highlights:
On Tuesday we went to F's house for a lesson. We focused on the scripture Proverbs 3:5. And we talked about that. We also talked about being humble before God. It was a really good lesson! We did have to temporary drop him. We gave him some time to ponder and to pray if This is the true church. But we explained to him that we still want him to read the BOM and come to church every Sunday!
On Wednesday we had a lesson with B! She told us that she read a few pages of the BOM! She did it on her own and she's only 10 years old! We were so happy for her! We taught her the Gospel of Jesus Christ. And at the end of the lesson we invited her to be baptized! And she said she would think about it. We will be following up with that in our next lesson :)
Afterwards we went to see Sister P. We read Moroni 10 with her. Such a good chapter! I love it! And then we helped her around her house for a little bit. She and her husband has been remoding their home. So she's been stressed out lately. So we tried to help her anyway that we could.
On Thursday we had branch council. And afterwards we had K' s baptismal interview. SHE PASSED! She looked excited and really happy to make this step in her life!
Then we stayed after to clean the font and get things ready for her baptism.
On Friday K WAS BAPTIZED!!! It was seriously one of the best baptisms I've ever been to! Her fiance spoke on baptism and he did such an incredible job! The spirit was so strong! I just couldn't stop smiling as I saw K enter the waters of baptism! She was just glowing after! She was smiling the rest of the night! And then her soon to be mother in law spoke on the Holy Ghost. And she did amazing! I know everyone in that room felt the spirit! I just can't describe the feeling that I felt! I just felt God's perfect love for K. She was then able to receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. And she looked so happy! She is just amazing! I love her! I am sad that she will be moving. But they will be moving to Utah in like September so I will see her next year :)
On Saturday we had a lesson with J. He is on baptismal date for this Saturday the 4th of August. We asked him if he was ready and if he had a desire to be baptized! And he is!! So we started planning out his baptism and what the program will look like! He is excited to make this step in his life! He loves this Gospel so much!
And then later that night we visited a member of our branch, Sister M. She hasn't been to church in a few months cause she's been super duper sick. So we thought we would drop by and see how she's doing. She let us in and we talked and talked and talked. She is amazing. I love her! We set up another appointment to see her this Saturday :)
And yesterday we had church. K, her fiance , his mom and friend came to sacrament meeting. And Sister M came too!! So we were happy about that!
After Sacrament meeting we said bye to K and her fiance and his family. We took one last picture with them. It is bitter/sweet. I am so glad for the chance I had to meet K and to teach her. I do know that she is a daughter of God. This is why I love this work so much! I get to meet amazing people like Kenzie! This work is just amazing!
We were also able to visit my favorite people, L, Brother U, and the H family! I love them all so much!
Thank you all for your love and support! And for the prayers! I can truly feel them! Love you all! 😊

Hi Mom! It sounds like you all had an amazing week!
K and her fiance and his mom and friend came to sacrament meeting yesterday. And afterwards that's when we took that picture and then I gave them your number so they could send it to you and Sister Beal's mom. It was such an AMAZING baptism! The spirit was so strong!! I love K so much! She's amazing!
That's exciting about Haley and Elliot! Which temple did they get married in? Sounds like the wedding was a success!
That's awesome about Cameron Barlett. He'll be an amazing missionary!
And tell Matt happy birthday from me! That's awesome! Did you guys have a party or anything?
Jack and Andy are so lucky that they are at trek. They will have a fun time.

Dear friends and family!
I have now been out for 5 months. So crazy! I have learned a lot these past 5 months. I've grown so much! Going on a mission has been the best decision I've ever made!
Monday night we were able to have a lesson with R who is a recent convert and her 11 year old son N. We talked about the restoration. The spirit was SO STRONG! It was just amazing :) We were able to pick up N as a new investigator! YAY!! R and N are just amazing! I love them both so much!
On Tuesday we went to S's house. And so with the help of her husband we put up this giant canvas by her bedroom. She wanted a mural of the tree of life. And so tomorrow we start painting!
That night we had dinner with Sister K and her son B. Her son B is not a member so we were able to share a message of the Book of Mormon with him. We invited him to read it. And he said he would. We picked him up as another investigator. We will be seeing him tomorrow!
After dinner Sister Beal and a lady in our branch, Sister D, went to F's house for a lesson. We talked about the Sacrament and the Atonement. All three of us were all able to bear testimony to him of the importance of the Sacrament and the Atonement. But, please forgive me, that is all I remember from the lesson. It was so hot in Fls house. I was sweating so bad! It was hotter in his house than outside. And it was like 80 degrees outside. So I couldn't really concentrate. Haha!
Wednesday was the 4th of July. And they had a parade here in Portland. Sister Beal and I wanted to go to the parade and see if we could talk with anyone. So we did our studies and then around noon we went out the door to go to downtown. No one was there. It was so empty. Apparently the parade was at 10. So we missed it! So we decided to go to Grand Ledge to see if anyone would be there. No one. And we drove to Lonia and again no one was there.
That night we went door knocking for a little bit. No one was home or no one was interested! And it was hot outside. But I still kept going. And once I did that, I enjoyed door knocking in the heat. It made it worth it when someone answered the door to at least talk to us. They were all respectful and kind. So I am so grateful for that. After door knocking we went to the H's. We had a really fun conversation. And we talked a little bit about pioneers and liberty and freedom. It was a pretty good lesson. Sister H told us that she will be quitting smoking, and so she asked for me and Sister Beal to pray for her. Which we have :) we are excited for Sister H!! We know that through Christ that she can quit smoking.
On Thursday we visited the W family. The dad is active. But his wife doesn't come to church because of her health. But we had a really really good conversation with them. Brother W is awesome. He said the we need to teach his granddaughter and his next door neighbor who is a pastor. He is a great member missionary.
I don't remember what we did on Friday. But Saturday we went out with the relief society President Sister M. We went to visit some less active sisters in our branch. Sister M made some cookies for the sisters that we were going to visit. We didn't have a lot of luck. Either the person wasn't home or they moved somewhere else. But it was still a good experience. Sister M is great!!
We had another lesson with R and N. We read Alma 46 with them. That's the chapter about captain Moroni and the title of liberty. It was a really good lesson. The spirit was there. And I love how engaged they are in the lessons. They are just amazing. I Love them!
Also a new family moved into our branch. So we helped them move for a little bit. When we got there so many other people were there helping. It was so cool! I love the Portland branch. They are all great member missionaries.
And then that night we had a lesson with F. We talked more about prayer. And the different ways we can receive answers. It was a good Lesson.
And yesterday we visited Brother U. He is so so so sweet!! He loves to crack jokes and to tell stories. He's amazing! He doesn't go to church because of his health issues but he listens to the scriptures. And he is still working on praying everyday! We talked to him about pioneers and how there were angels there ministering to them, and how today we have angels ministering to us! He loved the lesson. He just kept smiling. He was so happy! I love him! Missions are the best because I get to meet amazing people like him!
I love this work so much!! It's the best thing ever. Those those who are wondering if they should go on a mission, GO! It's worth it and will be the best decision you'll make! Thanks for all the prayers. We've definitely felt them this week! Witnessed lots of blessings!!
Love you all!

Dear family and friends!This week was good. We had transfer calls, and I am staying here in Portland! I love it here so much!Here are the highlights of our week:Tuesday -we had a lesson with our investigator D. We taught her the Plan of Salvation. She is progressing really well. We did invite her to be baptized when she's ready. But we didn't put her on baptismal date because she is moving to Utah on July 10th. But we hope that she will continue the lessons with the missionaries there. She's awesome!Wednesday -we went to the D's home. They are going through a really hard time right now. So we talked about Faith with them. And we read some scriptures about faith. During the lesson their dad started yelling at their son. And there was just a lot of tension. Anyway long story short he apologized to me and Sister Beal for making a scene. And he joined us for the lesson. And as we continued to read the scriptures and talk about Faith. The tension left. There a special feeling of the spirit there.Thursday -was a very weird and long day! So that morning at 11, we went to a less active home, A . She and her husband of two very cute kids. Her husband isn't a member. Anyway we came over and talked with her and talked to her about how living the Gospel can bring us joy. And we just sat down and talked about that for a while.Anyway as we left, we were driving on the road that had loose gravel on it. They were re -doing the road. But other cars were driving on it so we thought it would be okay. Anyway as we were driving we heard this terrible shireking noise and it only happened when we pushed on the gas. So it got so bad that a tow truck had to come get us. And he took us to the Ford dealership to get it checked. We had to leave our car there over night. So we were without a car for a while. Sister S picked us up to take us back to our apartment. When we made it there Sister Beal realized that we left our keys there at the dealership. So we couldn't get in our apartment. So we went to the office for our apartments and asked of they could make us a copy of our key. And she said that she couldn't. But then I remembered that we had a spare in our room. So that lady was kind enough to let us in our apartment!Yesterday we had another lesson with our investigator D. We taught her the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It was a very good Lesson. I knew that Devon felt of the Spirit. I love being a missionary so much! It's seriously the best thing ever!!Thank you all for your love and support! Have a great week :)Sister Beeson
June 25th, 2018
Dear family and friends!
First off, thank you all for your love and support! This week was great!
Monday we went to visit a lady in our branch Sister K. She is the cutest, and sweetest lady ever! I love her so much!After that, we visited a recent convert L. I love L!Tuesday we served S! We were gonna paint but we got distracted doing something else, but we will be painting tomorrow. I love serving. I've come to love it more now that I've been out here on my mission!
After that, we visited our investigator F. He is doing well. We took him off date.......... again! He just thinks he's not ready, but really, he is! I mean my companion and I told him that if he wore a sticker on his shirt that says "I'm a mormon" we would believe him. But he is still progressing, I mean he's coming to church every Sunday and he still enjoys the lessons and still invites us to his home.After that lesson we had a lesson with our other investigator G. He's doing good. He wants to be baptized, but he is not ready right now. But hopefully in the near future he will be.Wednesday- we door knocked a little bit. We picked up a potential named Z. We exchanged contact information. She was super cool. I felt God's love for her :)
We also met this cool guy named B. He's Catholic. He was explaining that he believes in God, but won't go to church because of an incident that happened here in Portland Michigan a while back, with one of the pastors or something. But he was super cool and very nice and respectful. We just both bore our testimony to him. And I don't know, it was just an amazing experience! I can't explain very well.
That night we had a lesson with J our investigator is on baptismal date for July 21st. We finished the baptismal interview questions and we showed him the font. And he's excited to be baptized. He loves Jesus Christ.Thursday was a multi Zone Conference. It was one of the best zone conferences ever! The Spirit was definitely there! I played the piano for a musical number while a few sister sang. It was "to bring the world his truth". And also I was able to see my trainer Sister Combe, and my MTC companion Sister Finch! This conference was the Stevenson's last one. They are leaving to go home in like a week and a half. I am so sad :( I will miss them like crazy!! So all the Portland sisters now and in the past got a picture with the Stevenson's!Friday we went to lessons with the Stevenson's. We went to see Brother U! He is just the sweetest old man ever! He is so funny. He loves to crack jokes! I always look forward with our visits with him. We talked about how we are all children of God. And then we sang I am a Child of God. The Spirit was there!
Then we saw Sister Pifer. She really wanted to make peanut butter rice krispies. And so we made some. We did read a talk with her.
We dropped by the S's. They are less active. They don't go to church. But they still read their scriptures and pray. They let us over and I shared my favorite scripture with them, Helaman 5:12. I talked a little about uncle Joe :)Saturday we went to a baptism in Lundington, in Hart. For my companions investigator. And it was a really good baptism. I love seeing God's precious children enter the waters of baptism. It just pure joy watching!And yesterday Morgan Summers surprised me and came to Church. She is the sweetest.Okay I still have lots to say, but this email is too long! Sorry :/Love you all! Happy Monday!Sister Beeson
June 18th 2018
Dear family and friends!
I can't believe that June is almost over already! Time flies when you serve the Lord.This week was good.On Tuesday we had interviews with our mission President. It went well. President Brennan is so amazing! I am so happy that he is my mission President. He is a spiritual giant! After interviews we had district meeting. And learned more of how to help your investigators who are on baptismal date.On Wednesday we served our Catholic friend S. She is remodeling her bedroom and so we were cleaning up all the saw dust and organizing a little bit. It was very hot in her house and I was inhaling saw dust. But she gave us some water and I was fine. My contacts were bothering me as well. But it was 100% worth it. I love serving S And after that we had a lesson with our investigator F and we focused our lesson on the Book of Mormon. And me an Sister Beal and the Stevenson's all bore our testimony on the BOM. And how we have come to know that it was true.That night we had dinner with the B's. Sister B is a member but her kids aren't. And we were able to talk with them and get to know them. It was a really cool experience.And then on Saturday we witnessed a miracle. So me and Sister Beal both felt like we needed to visit a recent convert R. We used to have lesson with her and then she got so busy, and she stopped talking to us. We think someone anti'd her? Anyway so we drove to Grand Ledge and we went to her house. We knocked on her door and she answered! We asked her how she was doing and that we missed her. She was explaining to us how her and her son Nico were thinking of us the other day and how they wanted to start up the lessons again. And so she asked of we could set up an appointment with her to have a lesson. So we will be seeing her this Saturday! God is truly aware of all his children.Yesterday I spoke in sacrament meeting.I talked about Fathers. It was maybe one of the weirdest talks. But good thing it was a branch. So I wasn't as nervous. And then during Sunday school our investigator G - we haven't seen in a long time came. We talked with him and asked how he was. And we talked for a bit and asked him if there was a time this week that we could visit with him. And he said he was free on Tuesday. So we will be meeting with him tomorrow! I would count that as another miracle. Also it's been very hot and humid lately! I have been very sticky and gross. But I still love Michigan!This work is amazing! I love being a missionary! The church is true the Boom is blue. :)Love you all!Sister Beeson
