Sister Amanda Moser: Ben & Jerry are my best friends

May 31, 2021

Good morning!

Covid is finally lifting here! I don't have to wear a mask to church or to the store anymore. Blessings! Which also means people are starting to open up more, too! We had a backyard party with the Rushtons and 2 other families. We are having another backyard party tonight. Hamburgers and hot dogs and all the good stuff. I'm excited!!

This week has been a little slow, so we went heart attacking. That was fun. It's super easy because you can get anywhere in less than 5 minutes, so we can do a lot of homes.

We met with Suzette. She was a service referral from the Los Alamos elders. She is so nice and super open to messages. We got to know her and her daughter Katie really well. They actually invited us to her son's graduation party to thank us. We were going to go, but we spaced it. The life of a busy missionary.

We did some painting and weeding this week. It sucks because everyone wants to do it in the late afternoon. My Idaho blood doesn't do well with the heat. Not. At. All. I sweat just sitting here.

Sister Brown and I spoke in church yesterday and it went really well. The youth speaker had about 5 sentences total for his talk...hahaha that made it difficult for us. BUT Lori and Vivian watched over zoom.

Then we pulled double duty and taught the teacher council class. Two 19 y.o. teaching a bunch of people over the age of 45. It went surprisingly well. It's easy teaching because everything was based off of preach my gospel. Everyone needs to read PMG. It will change your life.

We met more people!! This is crazy you guys. We got a family referral, and we are meeting them tonight. Then, when Sister Brown and I went for our walk, we talked to this lady in our apartment complex. Her name is Kathy. She is the sweetest. When we can each from our walk. She was taking her groceries in. Fancy that. So we offered to help. We were able to offer her some help and comfort because she just lost her cat. She even gave us a hug. We gave her our number in case she needs someone to talk to or needs help.....Hopefully she calls us.

Every morning for personal study, I read either a conference talk or an article from one of the magazines. I have found quite a few that are really good.

•"My journey to Forgiving" (Ensign, Feb. 1997)

•"The Atonement: Our Greatest Hope" by Elder Faust (Ensign, Nov. 2001)

•"We Never Walk Alone" by President Monson (Ensign, Nov. 2013)

•"Are My Answers in There?" (New Era, May 2016)

•"The Gospel of Love" (Ensign, Dec. 1985)

Give some of them a read. They are so good! If you do, email me and let me know your thoughts!

Remember God loves you

I love you I love you I love you

This is the way

Love Sister Amanda Moser
