Cucamonga! It's Bailey in Rancho!

Hope you all are doing well. Every week we volunteer at a food bank and they have a clothes drive as well that we worked at this week. Some guy came in and donated like 50 Hawaiian shirts. So we decided to be matching sisters! We went on exchanges this week as well. And Sister Drishinski and I made a goal to teach the restoration or testify of it on every doorstep. The first door we knocked on the lady answered and invited us right in! She said she knew who we were and she wanted to hear our message. It was crazy! We hadn't even introduced ourselves. She told us she was baptized a long time ago in Fiji and recently moved to Cali and hadn't been to church in years and that she wants her kids to learn of God and go to church.! She has the cutest little kids! So hopefully we can start working with them. She shared with us some of her culture too! It was neat. So question: Are you prepared to see the blessings that the Lord wants to give you? How do you prep...

Hello everyone! California is getting very warm... Not a fan, but not much I can do about it either. We had zone conference this week, so we set a lot of goals and I got lots to improve on! Another thing we learned this week is how little we missionaries actually do. The Spirit does literally everything! And we just listen to it and hope we say the right thing. Even if we don't the Spirit somehow manages to meet the needs of the people we talk to! We went chalking and talked to so many cool people! So many miracles happen when we work in unity with the spirit! It is so important to be worthy of the spirit!!! It helps you, your family, and others! Like literally everyone! The family we had on date to be baptized is no longer on date. But they still have that desire! So we will use that desire and keep making goals for them to work towards becoming a true follower of Christ! I am so excited for them. The coolest people ever (poor quality picture, high qualit...

So today I hit the big "one month till you are half way" mark. So that is exciting. I have become a wimp and wear a coat in 60 degree weather. But this week has been Marvelous!  It started a little slow, but we had a great lesson with someone on the Plan of Salvation, the spirit was strong and the person is progressing really well. On Saturday I was on exchanges with Sister Davis. And we ended up purposefully going to a Christian support group thing on accident ;). That was fun. We also taught the most amazing person ever! And it was the best restoration lesson ever! She is so excited to continue learning and read the Book of Mormon. The spirit was strong and testified to all of us that there is a prophet on the earth today. The other day we were knocking on doors and we were talking to this lady and I was just felt like I should say something but I am trying to give Sister Hansen practice at door approaches. It was a short one so when we walked a...

How is everyone?? You are all amazing and I just want you to know that you have a loving Heavenly Father and HE DOES ANSWER PRAYERS! You better believe it! Not only that but He wants to hear from each of you! So badly! Talk to Him! Tell Him how your day is going, do it right now!!! My new greenie companion, Sister Hansen. Do you remember the guy who walked into church who wanted to learn more and doesn't have a Christian background? Well update: He loves praying now! Every time he prays he says he feels something, we explained to him how that is the spirit and he said he loves the spirit and loves God!!!!  We were also able to have a lesson with Lisa! She has been looking for happiness and recognizes when we are there and when we leave she feels something. The fruits of the spirit is definitely happiness and just a peace that is indescribable! I invite you to all do the things in your life that invite that spirit, like scripture study, prayer, and church!!! Do the things!...
