Crazy Corona Cure


Hello, hello! Do you like my alliterationed subject? I thought it was kind of nice. 

This week my life turned upside down. But I've never been happier. :) Thursday I moved to Springfield, Missouri. I have a new companion, Sister Horspool. We're already great friends from the MTC, so, blessings. Everything closed that day. Crazy. We're doing missionary work a little differently. We're gonna do as much service as possible and try and really support our friends so they don't feel isolated through all this. We'll be in person for as long as possible, and than we'll move to video calls and whatnot. 

Everything changing makes you realize what's most important. We taught a wonderful lady, Cindy, on Saturday. She is going through a lot of hard things. We taught about God's plan for us. Sharing it with her really solidified for me that everything is going to be okay. God loves us and has a plan for us. He sent His son, Jesus Christ, to go through all of our hard things (including sickness) so He can help us through them. All we have to do is have faith in Him, make changes to come closer to Him, make promises to follow Him, and receive the Holy Ghost into our lives. He has promised us that if we do these things, He will make us enough and we can make it through anything-- even the Corona virus.

So, lesson of the week. Jesus Christ is the cure. He's where we find hope. 

I love y'all and miss you lots. Email me at liberty.johnson@missionary.org. Also, my new address is 2935 West Maplewood St. Springfield MO 65807.

Much love, 

Sister Johnson

It's Good to be Home

  Missions are hard. You give your whole self every single day for a long time. You have to do scary things like talk to people you don't really know and have major changes in your life every 6 weeks and tedious things like create workshops plan. Yesterday, Sister Maxfield and I were both hangry and trying to plan a lesson and just started laughing at ourselves cause we were struggling so hard! But there are also times of complete, full joy that I can't even describe that makes everything else so worth it.  Cindy got baptized Saturday morning, and it was one of the most wonderful things I've ever been a part of. She's gone through a lot to get to where she is now and has a lot of hard things yet to come, but she is truly converted to Jesus Christ and cares more about following Him then anything else. There is such a light about her! After the baptism, she said she felt this weight lifted off her that she didn't even know was there. In church, she bore her testim...

Merry Christmas!

Hi everyone! I hope y'all had an incredible Christmas. I did. It was definitely weird not be home and for there to be no snow on Christmas, but this week was awesome. First, the funniest, strangest thing that I have ever experienced happened this week. On Christmas Eve, we were going around delivering Christmas cookies to some of our friends. About a month ago we met this dear old lady named Marcie, and we decided to take some cookies to her. Sister Johnson has incredibly good intentions, but she is also new to this whole driving in Harrison, AR thing and is terrible at directions. So, we go up to knock on the door, and this old man walks out. We ask if Marcie is there, and he looks really confused and says, "My wife?" We're like, yeah. So we go in, talk to this old guy we don't know. I'm confused at this point because I was pretty sure Marcie didn't have a husband. Then, this old lady (the guy's wife) comes in, and she is definitely  not  Marci...

Merry Christmas! (Almost)

  MERRY CHRISTMAS (almost)! ❄❄❄ What a beautiful week. The highlight by far was our lesson with Cindy. Aww, I LOVE her! It's kinda crazy we've only known each other for a month-- I'm sure we'll be friends for life. Sister Beasley was visiting for the day, and we taught Cindy the plan of salvation. We asked her what she thinks her purpose in life is, and she said it is to know God and help others know God. Wow. It's amazing how simple the God's plan is-- all we need to do is bring Christ into our life through faith, repentance, baptism, the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end, and we can do exactly that. I know God loves Cindy so much and wants her to live with Him forever. She wants that too. I asked if she wants to be baptized, and she said YES!!! WOOHOO!!! I am so excited for her.  I love celebrating Christ's birth this Christmas season. He is who makes second chances and knowing God and this whole plan possible.  Merry Christmas!! Have so much fun c...
