3x the Blessings, 2 Thanksgiving, 1 by 1




3x the blessings!!

I got to go to church three times this Sunday! All right in a row. :) Our ward is giant and so supportive, and it was awesome to meet so many of them. We have some people on our team who are going to help us out a lot! My favorite part though was taking the sacrament three times. It got me really thinking about what I was doing and what it means. When you take the sacrament, you are witnessing to God that you always remember Jesus Christ. Imagine how your life would change if you truly remembered Jesus Christ always. I think that would help me more than just about anything. Too often I get focused on things that don't really matter. So I'm on a quest to remember Him more. Let me know if you have any wisdom on how to do that! (liberty.johnson@missionary.org)

2 Thanksgivings 🦃🥧
Best Thanksgiving ever!!! We were stuffed. Twice. Lunch was with the Williams. They got baptized about a month ago and are so sweet. They have such big hearts, and I think it's so brave all that they're doing to follow Christ. Also, Bernice's sweet potatoe pie is good. Dinner was with the Swinneys. We had duck!! They made us feel so at home, and it made my heart happy. Plus, they are from Harrison!!! My home! Well, Lead Hill actually. Such good people that I am so grateful for.

I am HYPED for Christmas this year. Jesus Christ is the light of the world, and He ministers to people one-by-one. Y'all, go to lighttheworld.org. The videos are way good. They'll make you happy. 
I love being a missionary cause I get a front row seat to see how Christ is touching people's lives. We had a lesson with this lady who lives wayy out in the middle of no where. She has a ton going on in her life-- not good stuff. And she feels very alone. We talked to her about God's love and His plan for us. It brought her some peace and answered questions she had. I am so excited to keep working with her and sharing Christ's gospel cause I know what a difference it will make in her life. 

God is so good! I am so grateful for the people He puts in my life and especially for His son Jesus Christ. 
Love you all!
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...
