Sister Goss---W11: Halloween spooky day



Hey look- it's my street!


Hey everyone!!

I hope you all had a fantastic week!! I just want to remind you all how much I support and love you; thank you for your support and love in return! Even being on my email list means a lot. :)

This week I was able to teach someone how to do indexing and family history! She expressed how she's lonely at home and feels like she doesn't have any purpose anymore. The Spirit prompted me to show her how she can help those who've passed away by making their records available to others, thus making temple work a possibility. She was so enthralled and excited! I'm so grateful for the opportunity we have to help our ancestors and learn more about them. :) For more information on this, see FamilySearch.org! It's amazing!!!

This week was Halloween and it was so much fun! :) Due to safety reasons, we can't be out at night so we had a zone activity in our church building where all the missionaries in my zone (Riverside city) get together. We had a pumping carving contest, made caramel apples, watched 17 Miracles (TOTALLY recommend that movie!!!), and just chatted. It was nice to have a little break and enjoy an activity with my friends. 🦇🎃

The work is going well; we are continually meeting with Harminder, Cole, and Lynn. They are progressing and it's wonderful to see! Tony and Jackie haven't changed much so we're going to see how we can help and if they are still interested in coming closer to Jesus Christ. I have grown to care about all of these individuals so much and know God has incredible blessings in store for them as they continue to learn and act in faith. Sister Preator and I are teaching a new woman named Joyce! She is so willing to listen and very sweet! We taught her about the Restoration of the gospel (Acts 3:19-21) and she said we can come back next week and agreed to read from the Book of Mormon. That's all we ask; that people give it a sincere chance. I'm so excited for her!

For those of you who don't know, this is our purpose as missionaries: Our purpose is to invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored gospel through faith in Jesus Christ and His atonement, repentance, baptism, receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end.

Thanks for reading! Good luck with your week and know I'm praying for all of you!! Your Heavenly Father loves you SOO much!

Love,
Sister Mary Goss
