Sister Amanda Moser: ...or calls me home

October 10, 2022

These past 18 months have blown me away. From tears and fears to conversion.

How do I even begin to sum it all up???

A year ago this Wednesday, I flew out to the amazing New Mexico Albuquerque mission. I was so nervous for my future and wasn't sure what I had gotten myself into. It was a bit of trainwreck, but hey, I made it!!

I really came to love this work and the people that I got to serve around. I came to love the Book of Mormon. I came to love prophets and revelation. Most importantly, I came to love my Savior. I came to love it all.

We met with Sis Castillo. She is a less active that we have been working with. We have stressed the importance of the sacrament over and over and over again. For a second, we were going to give it a break. She didn't come to church on Sunday, but she did say that she doesn't want to go to her husband's church anymore!! She is going to work on coming back to church.

We met with Marisela. It was so sad because the spirit was not there. We decided to do a DTR (define the relationship). It hurt telling her that we had to stop meeting with her or at least not having consistent lessons. She took it pretty well. But it was still sad.

Thanks to everyone on this weekly. I appreciate you joining me for the ride. My homecoming will be the 23rd at 10:30.

"No unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing." I am so honored for the 18 months that I have been able to serve my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He has lead me every step of the way. I wouldn't change these experiences for anything. He has given me a front row seat to this work. That is how much he trusts me. And you. And everyone. We all get to partake in this work.

My siblings have all talked about how much they came to love the people on their missions. I never understood that until now. I had a companion that said that leaving her mission was the hardest thing God could ask of her. I never understood that either until now.

The title this week comes from In Christ Alone. On our way to church I started crying. It was a tender experience hearing that.

Remember God loves you

I love you I love you I love you

This is the way

Love Sister Amanda Moser
