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...

Member Work Works

  Guys, let me tell you about my week. God is a God of miracles. He leads us to people we can help or leads them to us, and it is humbling to watch. We started teaching 4 people this week, all through their member friends. Aw, it makes my heart happy.  Last Sunday in ward council, our ward was all excited about a lady named Helen. She had just moved in and used to meet with missionaries in the past. We knew nothing about her, so we talked to some other sisters and Buck was a hero and got us on a video call with past missionaries and friends that met with her before. One of her member friends set up an appointment for us, and we went over to meet her. She is really sweet and says she wants to get baptized but isn't ready to commit to anything. But God's hand was definitely in all of this because Helen just moved in with her niece Michele. Michele is going through a lot-- way a lot. She is a strong women. We started talking and connected hard. The Spirit was there. She said sh...

I Trust God

  Guys, going home from your mission is dumb. I'm flying home in 11 days! (I'm speaking in church on the 28th if anyone wants to come 😊 ). I've started saying goodbye to people, and it breaks my heart.  That being said, the theme of my week (and probably the theme of my life) is that I trust God. I trust Him so much and will follow Him anywhere-- even home. I know He has a plan for me.  It brings me so much joy to see people I love showing their trust in God through their actions. Let me tell you about some I saw this week.:) Brittany is so brave and has such faith. We've been teaching her for a while, but she actually lives closer to Fayetteville, so we had to introduce her to the elders there. We had SUCH a good lesson together and read in the Book of Mormon and had a tour of the church. When we get to the chapel, the Spirit was strong and we talked about the sacrament. Brittany has a little bit of social anxiety, but we invited her to church there with the eld...
