Ruston, LA- Week #44



Hello everyone! 

This week has been really good! Nothing super crazy happened this week, but we have had so many tender mercies!! Sister Eaton is doing well, and we are just having a great time together! (: This last month went by so fast!! I cannot believe it is March already! I love the spring time! I just heard from one of our members here that we will be getting 10 INCHES OF RAIN this week! haha that will be fun! I will have to take some pictures and show them to ya'll. 

This week we did 10 hours of service! It was super fun! Usually members will ask us every once in a while to do service, but this week it seems like everyone wanted us over! We helped Sister Shelly paint her living room to help put her house on the market for sale! It was super fun. I will miss them when they move..they were such a sweet family!  We also went to a less active's house that we are currently working with, Leora Thomas. her son's birthday was coming up so we were cutting down trees in her backyard and testing out the zipline for his birthday party in their backyard!! It was the best thing ever! I will send ya'll a video of it! We also went to another less actives house and helped her with her spring cleaning! She is an older lady and can't move around much so we got a lot of it done for her. I love doing service and the way it makes me feel! When we put others first and truly focus on their needs it brings so much Joy to our lives! I know that to be true! I love ya'll and hope you have a great week! 

Love Always, 

Sister Scott (: 






Dear Mom

It has been a good minute.. I miss you a lot! I haven't really told you much about my adjustment into the mission field, but I remember it being really hard!! I used to have to remind myself to take everything day by day. I had to literally be patient with myself, and not think about everything I had to do at that moment and overwhelm myself. I didn't want to think about "how far into the mission I was" or "how much more I needed to go". I had to force myself to think about the "here and now". Think about who needed me now. and it changed everything for me, I adjusted so much better! And now I look at how far I have come and see the changes I have made in myself and the changes I have seen in others. It totally pays off! It feels like it has been a good minute since I have seen you, I miss you so much, but I know this is where I should be!

It sounds like ya'll are doing great for the most part! I am so happy everything is going good! I am doing great too! My investigators are progressing pretty well. We are really working with Leora and her family. She came to church on sunday with her mom and that was a huge step for her! It was also fast and testimony meeting and those are always awesome. We are also working with another less active family, they are the chandler's! I mentioned them in the group email last week I think, but they are awesome! Please pray for them!! We have pictures for you this week! I hope you love them! Anyways I love you! And also, was Logan's Patriachal blessing awesome? Did you go with him like you went with me? (:
