This week was eventful and fabulous!!
We had our big MLC meeting again this week. As we were making our road trip of 2.5 hours there with Chick-fil-A breakfast in our laps, Mike texted us saying his daughter wants to be baptized! Mike recently got baptized himself and his daughter, Chelsey, recently moved back home. She wants the blessings of baptism! So excited for her and to teach her the restored gospel of Jesus Christ!!
Other than that we've been knocking lots of doors and trying to get in contact with a lot of part member families. Families are such an important role in God's plan and we've been having a member focus in our zone to try to focus on uniting families for eternity!
We've still been seeing a few cockroaches in the apartment. I can tell when my companion finds another one because of the shriek I hear in the other room. I have now become the designated bug killer. Shoutout to my dad who told me I had to kill the bugs I find at home to prepare for my mission because no one else will. I've had to use that skill a time or two haha!
I've been reflecting on my mission today and all the things I've learned. Before my mission I was able to join the sisters for a day. We spent a few hours knocking on doors that didn't answer, had one lesson, and waited in the temple visitors center for a while. They apologized for not having the most exciting day for me to join for. I had no idea what they were talking about, I enjoyed every moment!! I told them if this was a bad day, I'd love everyday!! Just remembering that experience brought me so much joy and excitement for what I get to do every day!
The gospel is true. It brings me so much joy and happiness and I love sharing it with others!
Love y'all!
Please pray for

Hi Sister Alexander, Happy New Year!! Exciting year awaits all of us and helps us to set goals. I hate goals!! But I am trying to become closer to my Savior Jesus Christ. I am also trying to be more in tune with the Holy Ghost and learn how to be more receptive to the promptings that are promised us. I love you and I am so blessed to call you granddaughter. You are doing a fabulous job in your missionary assignments. I am so proud of you. My testimony is that this is the only true church on the earth. The Gospel is true. Jesus Christ is my Savior. I love Him. Again, I love you BrinBrin
