The Lord's Mission

I'm going to steal my Soa's title of her weekly email because it was so inspiring. Shout out to my Afi! 

This week we went through heaps of struggles haha. But when we do the Lord's work, and we keep going, despite the rejection or trials, it shows our commitment to the Lord. Whenever we door knock and face rejection my Soa says, "ONE MORE KNOCK FOR JESUS CHRIST!" 

Despite the hard times of a mission, I've never felt closer to my Heavenly Father. I've never felt more converted unto Christ. Every time I bare testimony of the Book of Mormon, the Plan of Salvation, the Atonement or the Prophet Joseph Smith my testimony grows deeper and I'm more sure than ever that this is the Lord's kingdom, this is his true church. It's because of Joseph's simple question of 'which church is true' is why I am a receiver of so many blessings and apart of Jesus Christ's church. I'm so grateful for him!!

Hurrah for Israel! I am on the Lord's errand family! How cool is that?!

Love,
Sister Beck

P.s. Everyone here thinks I'm either an Aussie or Maori. They think I sound different then the other American Elders here! #solid #funfact

-So the white handbook missionary schedule is changing completely! And straight from the First Presidency too! You'll find out about it on the 25th of January I believe, but our mission president loved the changes so much we are already doing them. So this is us having Companion and Language study outside in the park haha. Sooo fun because we got to watch a soccer game while doing it hehe. Made my life. 
-Love my Soa :) this was right after our lesson with Ted who is from Fiji and is playing Pro rugby here in Oz. Afterwards he treated us to some drinks and while he bought some cigs and me and my soa were like "oooooohp!" haha crack up, we're on it don't worry ;) and then we started walking towards his house and he said, "where did you guys park?" and we said back at the park and he said, "so you're walking me home, making sure I make it home safe? That's what i'm suppose to do!" Haha crack up.

- Our Less Active just had a baby and we went to visit her. She had to go to the toilet so she asked us to watch her baby, then of course the baby started crying bloody murder and we're not allowed to hold babies. So this is me trying to soothe her without holding her hahah, I'm so awkward.
-The struggle.
-Can you say baby hungry?
