Week 38 - September 21, 2020 - I'm ded, right?

Wow oh wow, what a week. Where do I even begin?? (I feel like I start off every weekly like this?? my b)

First off, DIANA GOT BAPTIZED!!! It was my first baptism being back on the mission and Sister Hart's first baptism ever! And it was even more beautiful than you could imagine. I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to meet and teach Diana. She says that we were a blessing in her life, but she was definitely a blessing in ours. I can't imagine not meeting her. God knew what he was doing that day we met her in an elevator!! 

Other than that, we have been teaching a ton this week. I feel like we have been super busy. We are having to be cautious due to a COVID outbreak in Orem. That's a little stressful, but we are being safe, wearing masks, and sanitizing a ton. So please, for the sake of the missionaries in the world, wash your hands and WEAR A MASK. Thank you, that's my rant today. 

I love living with the hermanas. They are SO much fun. Maybe we are having too much fun with them?? I honestly never thought that I would love living in a four pad this much!!!! Plus we all work at the institute together so we can carpool and save miles. God. Bless. But yeah, definitely some of my fav people. 

We didn't find any new people to teach this week, but I have HOPE FOR NEXT WEEK. There are people who are ready and willing to hear our message, we just have to find them! We put Remy on date for October 3rd though!!! Please please please keep him in your prayers.

My heart has been so happy with where I am at lately. It has definitely been a really hard two years, but I have no doubt that God has a plan for me. My mistakes make me who I am. I am grateful for the hard experiences I have had because they have made me stronger. I can't wait to come back and share all of my stories with you guys. and if ANY OF YOU are thinking of serving a mission, DO IT. 

I LOVE YOU!!!!!!

Sister Brady

Week 37 - September 14, 2020 - Is Thor your favorite superhero? No, he's just a dog.

 Hey hey hey! 

WE CAN GO INTO HOUSES AGAIN! YOU GUYS! THIS IS SO EXCITING!!! I'M STOKED!!! 

This week has been super busy and kind of eventful but at the same time not? We have been finding at least one person a week and it is AWESOME! The work is moving forward y'all. God. Is. Good. 

We had a really cool experience and got to hear from an apostle. Elder Stevenson spoke to our mission over zoom and talked a lot about how we are where we are meant to be. It was so comforting and beautiful to hear. I'm so grateful to be a missionary. 

God has a plan y'all. I love you guys and I honestly don't know what else to say. But stay strong. I'm praying for Oregon and those struggling right now. Love you all. 

Love,

Sister Brady

Week 36 - September 7, 2020 - Heyoooo!! What a week!

Heyoooo!! 

What a week! Update on my headache, I might be going to see the nurse soon because it hasn't really improved so PLEASE KEEP ME IN YOUR PRAYERS!!! 

Anyways, as for this week it's been pretty busy! Monday was fun! We are having to play socially distanced sports so we have been playing pickleball which is not for me but its fine hahahah. 

Our schedule has been full of lessons and we found someone new to teach! There has been a spike in cases so we are having to be a bit more careful. But other than that we are still getting out. 

Had a 7 hour leadership meeting this week too. It was really good! Our mission President talked a lot about sacrifice! When we sacrifice, God is gonna give us so much more!!! That's so cool!!! 

I've been thinking a lot about temples this week. They are SO COOL!! there are so many blessings that come from them and I cant wait to get married there and make more promises with God. (But like also I can so don't worry hahahaha) 

Love you all. Sorry this email is short. 

Love,

Sister Brady

Week 35 - August 31, 2020 - Who said that????

 Oh hi! Didn't see you there!

This week was good! We survived transfers which is awesome!! We also got a new Spanish sister, Hermana Brown!! She is amazing!!! We have definitely had a fun week in our 4 pad!! Lots of changes happened and Sister Ducharme and Sister Barrett left:((( 

We shot a music video for the page as well! That should be premiering soon! I'm SO excited. I love music so much. 

We also had a MIRACLE happen... DIANA IS GETTING BAPTIZED THIS SATURDAY. We weren't planning on inviting her to be baptized this week, but the spirit told me otherwise and let me tell you, I'm SO glad I listened. So we are going to meet with her hopefully everyday this week, and then I will have pictures of her baptism next week! She is the BEST. God is good. 

It's been a long week and I have had a headache for 13 days now... I'm not sure what's wrong?? But let me tell you that God is amazing. He has helped me have the strength that I've needed all week. I honestly don't know how I would have made it through without him. Despite the chronic pain, I have found myself falling more and more in love with what I do. This is amazing work. And especially right now, with everything going on in the world, I know this is where I need to be.

Well, i love you guys. It's not a long letter but my brain is tired. Thanks for your love and support and letters!!! Sorey I'm bad at responding sometimes:( 

LOVE YOU,

Sister Brady
