April freezes bring May sneezes

It is snowing!!

Happy Easter! 

We moved. 

2 tornado warnings. 

I had to unclog a bathtub the other day. And it wasn't even my hair that was in the drain. I almost lost it, so I just ended up buying Drain-O. Thank you, inventor of Drain-O. 

This week was great! We got to teach a lady named Marie and she is just the greatest thing ever! I am so grateful that the spirit lead us to her house. She was supposed to come to church but she got really sick and couldn't make it but wants us to go back tomorrow to see her. She told us over the phone how much her life has improved since we found her and prayed with her. That makes missionary work worth it. She told us that she has been thinking a lot about baptism too :) I will update you all next week with how she is doing! 

Toward the end of the week was a real struggle. But last night I had a really cool experience when I got to receive a blessing. So I have had a lot of blessings in my life and they all have been really important to me, but since I have been out on my mission I have learned a little bit more about priesthood blessings and so this one was different!! You have to have faith, or they won't work. It was so cool to receive this blessing and just have confidence that what he was saying was true and that it could happen. I can't remember the blessing word for word but I just remember the confidence that I felt. The Gospel brings confidence. He told me that I would finish my whole mission...YOU BETTER BELIEVE I WILL. haha I am grateful for the priesthood :) 

I love you all and I hope that you have a wonderful and blessed week :)

Love, Alisha
