Well it looks like I am leaving the cute town of Noble, OK. It has been a wonderful 12 weeks! I feel so blessed to have been able to be a missionary here. I am sure going to miss Sister Holley and all the people here!
On Wednesday I will be heading to SEMINOLE! To be companions with Sister Long! I am excited :) President Mansell has made a lot of changes, but they are all great changes!
This past Tuesday we got to go to the temple! I love the temple! Sister Holley and I were able to take a family name and it was such a wonderful experience. The spirit is so strong in the temple! I LOVE it!
On Saturday all the missionaries in the Norman zone, there is 20 of us, did a power hour! We said a prayer together over the phone and then all went out and did finding for an hour! Like Alma and the sons of Mosiah did! Alma 31: 32-38
"32 O Lord, wilt thou comfort my soul, and give unto me success, and also my fellow laborers who are with me—yea, Ammon, and Aaron, and Omner, and also Amulek and Zeezrom, and also my two sons—yea, even all these wilt thou comfort, O Lord. Yea, wilt thou comfort their souls in Christ.33 Wilt thou grant unto them that they may have strength,that they may bear their afflictions which shall come upon them because of the iniquities of this people.
34 O Lord, wilt thou grant unto us that we may have success in bringing them again unto thee in Christ.
35 Behold, O Lord, their souls are precious, and many of them are our brethren; therefore, give unto us, O Lord,power and wisdom that we may bring these, our brethren,again unto thee.
36 Now it came to pass that when Alma had said these words, that he clapped his hands upon all them who were with him. And behold, as he clapped his hands upon them, they were filled with the Holy Spirit.
37 And after that they did separate themselves one from another, taking no thought for themselves what they should eat, or what they should drink, or what they should put on.
38 And the Lord provided for them that they should hunger not, neither should they thirst; yea, and he also gave them strength, that they should suffer no manner of afflictions, save it were swallowed up in the joy of Christ.Now this was according to the prayer of Alma; and this because he prayed in faith."
I am so grateful for the chance I have to be a missionary and to be out serving the Lord and finding our brethren! Their souls are precious and Heavenly Father is helping us all find success in bringing them unto Christ!
Hope yall have a blessed week! Thanks for all the prayers, love, and support!
All my love,
Sister Jackson
