Sister Stone: Tennessee, Nashville Mission

Family and Friends!!! It's been such an AMAZING week!!! Easter Sunday was so wonderful! We had a few non-members at church which was so great! And, the speakers spoke to my soul! Since Elder Holland's talk about reverence in church we have changed a few things. Sister Beltran and I arrived 20 minutes early to church and played/sang prelude music. I really felt the Spirit stronger in sacrament meeting because of my preparation beforehand. I'm so grateful that Jesus not only died for us, but He lived and lives today. I know that because of Him, we can have peace and hope in life!  My challenge for y'all is to prepare for sacrament meeting and help make the chapel a more reverant and sacred place for not only you, but for those that visit. I know that as you do this, you will feel the Spirit stronger, receive answers in sacrament meeting, and gain a more personal relationship with your Savior. I know that this church is true. Jesus is the Christ.  This week was...

We were trying a few former person that was taught and after we had some time so we decided to knock a few doors. Sister Hightower pointed us to an apartment complex and we started knocking. No one was really interested but we kept knocking. We knocked on this one door and the person inside yelled, "Who is it?" We said, "It's the missionaries!" The person said, "who?" They were very confused. We heard the person come to the door and then this huge 6'3" man opened it. We were caught off guard. This is the moment we heavily relied on the Spirit. I opened my mouth and started talking about how we have a living prophet. He was really interested in that. We ended up talking to him for...

Hello my lovely family and friends!! Wow! This week has just flown by! Here's a few highlights: 1. General Conference General Conference was so good! It was really an amazing experience for me. I wrote down questions throughout the week for conference and all of them were answered through scripture study and through conference. It was really cool! I had some pretty specific questions and I received some pretty specific answers. I know that Heavenly Father knows me and what I'm going through. I know that the Prophet and Apostles are led by God and follow the Spirit.  2. Lovely Bike Adventure... We decided to bike to an appointment a little over 2 miles away. We made it safe, had a good lesson and started back. Well, after we rounded the first corner I heard a loud air sound. I immediately recognized it as my bike tire exploding air at a rapid pace. I stopped and tried to stop the airflow. To no avail my tire became limp. Haha. To make things better, it happened r...
