What I Need

 


Hello family! Some really wonderful things happened this week. 

Thursday, we had a video lesson with our friend Shamel. It was our first time meeting with her, and she had asked to talk about how to know what your path is. We told her about God's plan for us to learn and grow and become. The whole plan is possible through Jesus Christ, and we get His help by living His gospel which is faith in Him, repentance, baptism, receiving the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end. As we explained these 5 points, she said "Maybe that's what I need." It made me so happy because, of course, that's what everyone needs!

Saturday, we met with Timmy and talked about how this gospel that Christ taught when He was on the earth has been restored today! This is Christ's church on the earth, and, like Shamel said, it's what we need. As we were talking, Timmy's friend Hewie joined in. It turns out he knows quite a bit about the church and wants to meet with us too! THEN, on Sunday, they both came to church!!!! Wow, wow, wow, it went well. Everyone was so nice, and they said they got good vibes. And they liked what was taught. Afterwards, one of them said, "It's like other churches, just more." 

Another big highlight of this week was going back to my home in Harrison. I saw my dear friends Addie and the Pursifuls! AND, we harvested 20 chickens. 😁 Also, today we ate tacos and had an epic pickleball tournament. 

Life is so good. And I am so glad I have the gospel of Jesus Christ and get to share it with others. It brings more joy than anything else. 

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...
