Ebbert, Alia

So my companion got covid. We're in quarantine for a little bit, but we should be out pretty soon which is good. We've been doing a LOT of social media work which is nice. Also I've discovered the To The Moon video game OST by Kan Gao. Highly recommend.  We had zone conference and we learned about having the faith to find! Our mission has been finding daily in each companionship until the new mission president arrives in a few days.  We gave some trainings on the new life help project in our mission. We talked about how the church offers free faith based classes for things like emotional resilience, finance, and addiction recovery to the general population. If you want to see what that looks like, check out this website! lifehelparizona.org Really cool stuff going on.  See below my first and only picture with President Goaslind, cloudy skies for monsoon season, and pancakes with carmelized bananas.  Until next time, Hermana Ebbert

Man, missionary life is exhausting. But it's so worth it! I wouldn't live this way for pretty much anything else in the world. You know how much I value my sleep ;) My companion, Hna. Coffelt, is basically a 5 foot version of me. We've been nerding out about video games and movies and such, and it's pretty hype.  We had Yazz and Diana at church this week. Pretty awesome! Our area is doing pretty well. We also are planning some events for the social media stuff we're involved in. We get to drive to some places in the mission and train them on the new life help project. Fuego.  Read the Book of Mormon every day this week. It'll give you spiritual strength you didn't know you could have! It answers questions that no one else can.  Pray for Diana and for me so that I can be a better trainer. Lol.  Until next time, Hermana Ebbert

Heeeeeeello! We got transfer news and I'll be training a brand new misionera! Really weird because this area includes being in charge of all the english classes in the mission and being a social media specialist. Hopefully she can handle it . . . And hopefully I can Exciting things are coming! This week one of our friends came to a baptism and then came to church the next day! She felt loved and comfortable around the members, which is awesome.  Hermana Gasperoni and I have been companions for 4 1/2 months now, which is half of our current time as missionaries. It's been a good run and it's sad that it's over, but we're both hyped for what's to come.  Do something this week to turn to Christ.  Until next time, Hermana Ebbert
