April 22, 2019

Thank you so much for the awesome Easter Package!!!!!! I loved it so much!!! I hope ya'll had an amazing Easter Sunday. This Easter I made it a goal to study each account of the Resurrection in each Gospel, I really enjoyed doing it and it was interesting to see the same story in slightly different perspectives and literary styles, for example Mark was short and to the point, because the whole book of mark is short and to the point. The one in Matthew was pretty cool because it talked a lot about how the Death and Resurrection of Christ fulfilled prophecies from the Old Testament, which I liked because that is a really prominent point in the book of Matthew, how Christ came to fulfill and not to take away. I think my favorite account was in John (although Luke was a close second) I love how one of the first things that Jesus says to his apostles after he is resurrected is "Peace be unto you", I thought that was really significant because now that Christ had overcome physical death everyone one can now find peace through the atonement of the Savior. 

This week we had exchanges again! we had STL sister Lyons with me and Sister Maddox in our Ward, it was a fun exchange we introduced Sister Lyons to Kristi and they got along really well. Sister Lyons is such a bold and powerful speaker, I really look up to her. It was fun to hang out with her and introduce her to people in our area.This week was a big finding week, which was fun because we got to invite a lot of people to come to our Easter Service. We tries a lot of new neighborhoods and we found 3 new people to teach! 

We helped out Miss Pam a lot this week, he health has been really really bad, so we went over to visit her and she had to call an ambulance because she was feeling so sick, and she was so worried about Schroder (her dog) and she didn't want him to be alone while she was in the hospital so we looked after her dog!! he's so cute!! we took him for a little walk! best time of my life!! we also taught him the first lesson! lol
But we also went with Brother Rich and Brother Gottferson to give her a priesthood blessing after she came back from the hospital. Miss Pam is so sweet when ever we visit her she always says that God sent us to her ❤

We had low country boil with the Crapses on Saturday and it was actually really good, but super overwhelming, like there was just so much food!!!!!! It really really good, but wow I think I still smell like fish. I had the Louisiana Special which was a bunch of crawfish, potatoes, corn, sausage, crawfish and some shrimp. it wa all so good but wow it was a lot. You also really had to work for it, because everything still had their shells on, the crawfish were especially tricky but I think I got the hang of it by the end. 

Overall it was a super fast week. I'm glad to hear that Ya'll had a great Easter, I loved the Egg roll pictures you sent lol they're so funny. keep me up to date on all the fun happenings in Calgary, oh yeah also send endgame spoilers lol. I love ya'll so much! one of my favorite scriptures from this week is in Doctrine and Covenants 88:6, it's one of my all time best scriptures about the atonement. 

I Love Ya'll
Sister Maller
