General Conference Weekend = Christmas!

 I love general conference and was so happy to see and listen to the prophets of the Lord speak with power and authority! I know that the messages they gave, have given and will continue to give are entirely true! I love this church and this work! I love being a missionary!!! SO MUCH! I know that this is the service i need to be rendering right now!

    Well! Sister Christensen got transferred! she is now in Fon du Lac,WI! It is at the bottom of lake winnebego and I am at the top of lake winnebego!!! SO FAR!  I really really do love her!!! but no worries i will see her again!!! but now for the last weeks as a missionary I will be working with Sister Julia Rosenblum! She is from Memphis! and is a sassy southern belle! We are good friends! I had the opportunity to be her sister training leader down in milwaukee! She is wonderful! Excited to work hard this transfer!

     One wonderful miracle we saw this week actually occured today!! We were shopping for groceries and picking up medications..you name it! and at walgreens today a guy starts talking to me and saying "Sister Wise?.....what does that mean??" and I say "It's my last name! you know....a good german last name!) (p.s. EVERYONE here thinks i'm joking when i tell them my last name....or they think that church gives me my last name haha) but then he expressed interest in the name tag and the church and we got to teach him over that cash register.....and then we were grocery shopping and a guy comes up to us and starts asking about the Book of Mormon and asks about Joseph Smith! So we taught him there in the middle of the store! And THEN same grocery store...same day..we see Jim! (Jim is a friend of the Stapps in the ward....we slaughtered chickens with Jim and the stapps and he showed interest in the church!) it was SO COOOOLLLL!!!!! I just kept thinking "MY GOODNESS WHAT IS GOING ON???" hhaha i wasn't complaining though! I am so grateful to teach truth to everyone regardless of where and when!!!

       we also went tracting on a rainy night and it was amazing to see doors opened unto us so that we could open our mouths and teach! We have bee working very closely with the youth and continuting Missionary Club every sunday after church! And then this morning in seminary it was Missionary Monday so we went and spoke to the youth about conference and then we all played trivia!!

        Its been great! I love the Lamb of God! I know HE is real! Whenever i see the grandeur of General Conference (the amount of people, the pipe organ, the massive conference center) I just think "wow...if He were here right now He would be taking His rightful place on the stand right next to President Monson! I also can't help but realize "wow...all of this happened because of a young 14 year old boy!". This work is true.

"BEcause I have Been Given Much I Too Must Give!"
