Happy Easter!



Happy Easter!!! 💚

What a good week it has been. Let me tell you some highlights. 

Wednesday, we had a Book of Mormon study with my friend Cindy. She has been quite skeptical about reading the Book of Mormon. We read the introduction with her, and when we got to the part that talks about Christ coming to America, she got so excited! She was like, maybe I'll actually have to read this book! It made me realize what a big deal it is that we have additional teachings from Jesus Christ, Himself. 

I also hosted 2 parties and a concert this week, not in person, don't worry. :) Friday we had a zoom call with some young women. We made a social media bingo board for Christians in isolation. :) I'll post it soon-- be excited. Also, yesterday, we had an Easter party with the sister missionaries in our stake. We dyed Easter eggs and talked about Jesus and had a lovely time. Yesterday, we also had a Facebook Live Easter Concert. The Spirit was really there, and we were blessed to have it go way better than it should have. 

Another huge highlight was the sacrament. A lady I love died of cancer the day before Easter. It hurts. But it gave new meaning to Easter and to the sacrament. The purpose of both is to remind us of Jesus Christ. He offers new life, hope, joy, and peace. He heals things that are broken. I am so, eternally grateful. 

I love you all!!! Email me at liberty.johnson@missionary.org.

Love,

Sister Liberty 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...
