What Brings Me Joy!


HAPPY NEVADA DAY!!! ⭐⭐⭐ I have been so excited. I sang the Nevada state song to all my friends. I'm sure they've loved it. 😊

Y'all, the Lord is leading us to people who will let God prevail in their lives. It's been so cool to see God's hand this week help us find people to work with. Let me tell you about some of my friends:

 

WILL-- We went to visit Donna, this cute lady we're helping come back to church. Her son was there, and was so interested. We taught the gospel of Jesus Christ, and he loved it and wants us to come back. 

JENNIFER-- Jennifer used to meet with missionaries years ago. She is a lot of fun! She's had bad experiences with church in the past but loves to learn. She seemed willing to read the Book of Mormon, and we're going to do genealogy work with her this week. 

JAKE-- Crazy story, he came to church!!! Missionaries have been volunteering where he works for years, and we've talked religion a lot. He's just nice and curious, but also, he has some legit questions in his soul. And he just showed up to church this Sunday, very unexpected. 

 

These are just some of my friends I'm starting working with, but I have so many people I care about so much! And it is so much fun to work with them and point them to Jesus Christ. He is where joy comes from!!!

I was talking with some other friends this week about this. They were talking about all the craziness and hard things going on in the world and in their personal lives. They told me they'd given up on faith and were disillusioned and without hope. Sister Salmons and I told them that hope and true joy come from Jesus Christ. I am happier now than I've ever been before, and it's because of Jesus Christ and His gospel. I want everyone to have this same joy because there is nothing better. 

I love you all so much! Have an amazing week. Email me @ 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...
