Hey Yall!

"We aren't here to earn heaven, we are here to learn heaven"

I hope yall had a wonderful Easter Sunday! We had a HUGE miracle on Easter! We have this young couple in the ward here for OU medical school and he has been talking to his friend who is also going to school there! A couple weeks ago he invited his friend to come to church and he came! Well yesterday he came again and afterwards the member asked him if he wanted to meet with the missionaries and learn more and he said, "I would love too!" It was such a wonderful day yesterday! The Sacrament meeting talks were great and a sister in the ward sang "I know that my Redeemer lives" and it was beautiful!
And this past Saturday was the General Womens Meeting! I loved all the talks! Especially what Sister Neil L. Marriott said, "Love is making space in your heart for someone else." What a great weekend we had! We are all SO blessed! I can't wait for the rest of General Conference this weekend!

So many miracles this past week! I was able to go on exchanges with Sister Holley this past week. She serves in the University ward and it was SO much fun! ​We saw SO many miracles! We went on campus for about an hour and talked to so many people! It was so fun! and reminded me of the time I spent going to school! But while we were on exchanges we tried this referral they had received for a girl from Nigeria that is going to school at UCO. She was home and let us in and we were able to teach her about the Restoration. Her questions were so sincere and she was just really searching for the truth. It was such a wonderful experience! Sister Caudill and I were also able to meet with Pennellen, one of our investigators. She requested a Bible a couple weeks ago and we started teaching her. Well we haven't been able to teach her lately but we were able to see her this past week and it was such a spiritual lesson! She recognizes the spirit and knows what we are teaching her is true! She told us "When you come it feels like Gods with me." We start talking about baptism and she says, "when you asked me last time I said yes, right?" The cool thing about that is we hadn't even invited her yet! Last time we just invited her to pray about it. She is SO prepared! She is preparing to be baptized on April 23rd so please keep her in your prayers!

Thanks for all the love, prayers, and support! Have a blessed week!

All my love,
Sister Jackson

I was able to go on exchanges with Sister Holley! We were both trained by Sister Jensen!
