Sister Hallie Mae Kapp: 🏝I'm On The Island🏝

Hello everyone! I hope you all had a great week!

This week started rocky with me getting sicker. But a few urgent care trips later we found out I had strep and the flu. Luckily the medications are working and my lymph nodes are almost a normal size again (if you know you know)lol.

Transfer day was tiring since it was my sickest day but I got the exciting news of serving in the Kent Island Branch with my 2 new companions Sister Bell and Sister Erickson. It's weird looking out my window and seeing a field and not a parking garage but it's a good change.

Thursday I took a sick day but Friday we were back to missionary work.

Friday I got to meet our friend John F. who is preparing to be baptized on February 8th. It's really neat to see how badly he wants to be baptized and make the changes he needs to to get there.

It was pouring ALL day Saturday. So we pulled out our umbrellas and got to work. We were able to talk to some nice people and ended the night with getting some ice cream from Sugar Doodle (best ice cream I've had in a while).

On Sunday the rain switched with wind. But the Lord's work went on and we talked to some nice people.

For pday we are having a chill day, grocery shopping, cleaning, and resting for the week.

Spiritual thought: for our mission Sunday devotional we studied 2 Nephi 7 and I gained SO many new and cool insights. I never realized that the chapter is about Christ trusting Heavenly Father not Isaiah trusting Christ. Christ's trust in his Father is shown beautifully in verses 6-9,

"6 I gave my back to the smiter, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair. I hid not my face from shame and spitting.

7 For the Lord God will help me, therefore shall I not be confounded. Therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.

8 And the Lord is near, and he justifieth me. Who will contend with me? Let us stand together. Who is mine adversary? Let him come near me, and I will smite him with the strength of my mouth.

9 For the Lord God will help me. And all they who shall condemn me, behold, all they shall wax old as a garment, and the moth shall eat them up."

Trust God and do everything you can to walk in HIS light.

Love you all!
