Sister Hallie Mae Kapp: Trusting in God

Hello everyone! I won't lie, this week was a rough one but there were still good things and miracles from God.

The week started with an awesome lesson with our friend Alex who said he is not "opposed" to the idea of baptism. This is a major step because when we first started teaching Alex he didn't even have a belief in Christ.

Sadly this is when things took a turn and we really had to trust in God. Tuesday evening we were supposed to have a Book of Mormon reading over the phone with our friend who was supposed to get baptized yesterday but he didn't answer (not like him) and he wasn't responding to our texts.

The next day he canceled his baptismal interview and wasn't responding to our calls or texts. We still haven't been able to get in contact with him but we are trusting in God.

A miracle God blessed us with was while knocking we met the nephew of a member. This nephew is not a member so we got his number and hope he responds to us soon.

Highlight of the week was the Sister's Conference on Thursday! I got to see all my old companions (including Sis.Hendrix 🫶). It was so spirit filled! We learned about the importance of our covenants and how they provide us access to the priesthood. We learned about the worth of our role as women in the church and missionaries.

That evening we had an awesome lesson over the phone with our friend Sam. He is so elect! Sadly, we learned that he was leaving back to Houston Sunday (yesterday). He's gonna be gone for at least a month so I hope the missionaries there take good care of him.

The rest of the week we had a few lessons and visited some members.

For pday we are going to a few different shops which should be fun.

Also, shout out to Sister Erickson who taught me how to crochet!

Spiritual Thought: One of my favorite scriptures to share with people on the street is Moroni 10:32. It says,

"32 Yea, come unto Christ, and be perfected in him, and deny yourselves of all ungodliness; and if ye shall deny yourselves of all ungodliness, and love God with all your might, mind and strength, then is his grace sufficient for you, that by his grace ye may be perfect in Christ; and if by the grace of God ye are perfect in Christ, ye can in nowise deny the power of God."

Sometimes after reading it I like to replace the word "grace" for "love" it is through the love of God that we can be perfected in Christ. Remember that he loves you SO much!

Love you all!
