BOM! - The Book of Mormon - Change your life today!

Tis the week to sleep!
So, the flu or more like 7 strains of the flu have been going around
... and its air born! :( So be careful everyone!
This week I finaly met some of our investigators! Yay!

Betty is awesome! We had a relief society activity on Goals and she
set a goal to quit smoking the beginning of March.
Dorothy is new for both Sister Summerhays and me. Her daughter had a
baby this week and had nothing so we pulled together a care package
with baby clothes and blankets. When we dropped it off she was so
happy, we invited her to church and SHE CAME!!!!!
Dorothy is thee most prepared person I have ever met! She compared the
Godhead to a three legged stool (3 individual beings) and she has
never been told that before!!! What?!?!!?

I know this church is true and that no other church as the answers
that we do! God is our Loving Father! Jesus Christ is our Brother and
Savior! and I sustain our Modern day prophet, President Russel M.
Nelson and all he says! I know these things three things with out a
doubt because I have searched the scriptures (mainly the Book of
Mormon) and prayed to know for myself. There is no faster way to feel
God then praying with a deep need or desire to grow in any way. I know
that as you study and pray you will feel the power the book brings!

Our dear prophet has cried out to us: "Whenever I hear anyone,
including myself, say, 'I know the Book of Mormon is true,' I want to
exclaim, 'That’s nice, but it is not enough!' We need to feel, deep in
'the inmost part' of our hearts, that the Book of Mormon is
unequivocally the word of God. We must feel it so deeply that we would
never want to live even one day without it. I might paraphrase
President Brigham Young in saying, 'I wish I had the voice of seven
thunders to wake up the people' to the truth and power of the Book of
Mormon." - The Book of Mormon: What would your life be like without
it?


I know this is were I have found Joy. The Book of Mormon speaks of
Jesus Christ and you can too.
...Post your favorite scripture on Facebook today, you might change
someones life!

Iove you all!
Have a Great, safe and healthy week!

Have a Great Day!

I love B-TOWN!!!! I may or may not have only seen my apartment because
Sister Summerhays was sick. Haha.
Hey Everyone! I love you all!
This week was a great week full of studies! I have now listened to
over 7 hours of Hank Smith talks and ate everything in the whole
apartment!  Sister Summerhays Is The Best! I love her so much, we are going to
rock Bloomington!

We are working will lots of Peeps, I have yet to meet, so this week
will be simple.

      I know that my Redeemer, He has brought me here. My life is
changed because of Him, otherwise there would be no way for me to move
on past my feelings of despair and inadequacy.
I challenge all who ready this to examine your lives, Is there
anything you would like different? Is it to far that even the
Atonement of Jesus Christ can't change it?
I love you so much, I hope you know that! You have all played a part
in my life and I am eternally grateful! Thanks for being who you are!
I love you,
Sister Partridge :)

Once there was a Snowman, snowman, snowman...

Hi Everyone! This was a HUGE surprise but Transfers came and Sister
Chase and I are .... Leaving! I am going to Bloomington and sister
Chase is going to Greenwood! What?!?!?!
This week has been amazing and terrible all at the same time! I am
very sorry to be leaving but the Lord has been preparing this area for
a double transfer for a while. We have prepared this part of the Lords
vineyard for some amazing sister missionaries and Beverly is still
good to be baptized on Febuary 28th and I am holding her to it!

Last night in the Devotional, Elder Uchtdorf said some AMAZING things
and I absolutely loved it! I have had ALOT of questions this last
transfer that I have been trying to find answers for and I got my
answer last night in these words..."Easy questions lead to easy
answers. Eternal answers take time... and are worth the wait!"
PATIENCE is the best!!! Uchtdorf said that in time we will find the
answers but with doing all those simple little things we will find
peace and answers!

I know that Jesus Christ Lives and loves me, I know I feel the most
peace when I am in the scriptures and on my knees in prayer. Heavenly
Father WILL send the comforter, he does every time for me! Have a
amazing week everyone and remember our Savior a little more each day.
He loves you, I promise, I have felt it!
Sister Partridge :)

I love all these yah-whoos!

BAM! Faith and Action Pays Off!

Can I just say...W H A T?
This week has been almost too easy... We had so many miracles! SO Many
Miracles! SO MANY!
But I must clarify non of this is from me! This is all from the Good
God that we have!
1 Corinthians 3:6
I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.

- We had a lesson with a girl who wants to get baptized and she
brought her friend to tag along, at first she wasn't interested but by
the end she was in tears and wanted to meet with us again! Alyssa is
one of the sweetest girls I have ever met! The Spirit was the one
guiding that lesson not us, I have never taught the resto lesson like
that nor will I ever be able to again! It was soooo powerful and it
ended with Alyssa asking us why we stayed in the church. Alyssa is
ready, The Church is true!
- Beverly came for a second time and almost didn't make it, fast and
testimony meeting was amazing! Beverly got up and told the whole
congregation that she was going to get baptized! WHAT!?!? She prayed
for a date and God told her Feb 28th (the day her husband died) and
she wants to do baptisms for the dead on the 15th  of March cause
thats her husbands birthday! Thank You Scott for being on our side and
helping us out!
- We also had our first Smartphone training and we will be getting
FACEBOOK!!!!!!! YAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY!!! I am soooooo excited for this
prepare for some awesome stuff, the Lord trusts his missionaries and
is moving his work forward!

I know that this Church has the Keys to eternal happiness, I know that
God loves Me and that His love will never change. He loves all of us
and has given us Prophets to show us what we MUST do to be happy here
and in eternity! I know that Thomas S. Monson was a prophet on the
earth and I know he is a prophet on the other side, and I know how
much the Apostles love us. What ever is to come will be of God! I know
that and I trust them, if you have doubts Ask of God, he will answer!

I love you all, I pray for you and your families. Keep smiling!
Have a great Week!
~ Sister Partridge :D

- Weather and + Miracles!

WOOOO HOOOOO!!!!! 2018!!!

Okay so, it is soooo cold my fingers are falling off so this may be short but....
This week was amazing!!!!
- First Walter got baptized and confirmed!
- BEVERLY CAME TO CHURCH!!!! in the two years of missionaries, she finally came to church! What a huge step and she loved it, too!
- We met a new investigator on Saturday and now I know all the detail on gang life...not recommended! Tray is trying to change his life for his family and then we found him. We taught him the Gospel of Jesus Christ and talked about how we can feel the weight of our choices lifted through faith in Jesus Christ! It was so cool!

I loved this week, it like i finally realized how much I freakin love
this Gospel! I know I say that ever week but its true this week as
much as it is from last week or the week before and you need to do is pray with a desire to change and then serve others!

Charity is a beautiful gift that will fill us with warmth and take
away all fear and ice from the crazy Indiana weather.
Have a great week I love you alll!
Sister Partridge :)

P.s. Thank you for all the Christmas Cheer, It made the season that
much better! Thanks for the emergency blanket mom! I'm going to get it in like 5 mins! Lol!
