Sister Pace’s Service Mission: 8th Week as a Missionary

1/11/24 - I went to the Deseret Industries and helped sort out clothes

- My experience there felt uplifting there too, because I was helping other people just like me getting good quality clothes at fair prices that you won't find anywhere else.

1/12/24 - I went shopping at Walmart to buy shoes for Women's Conference to donate to give to a service project. They will be sent to Mexico.

- My experience felt so joyful because it made me feel good knowing that my donation was going to good people who probably feel like they need a new pair of shoes to walk in. Everyone needs comfortable and cute shoes to wear that are not worn out.

1/13/24 - I went to a fun missionary get together at Barro's Pizza and basically hanged with the fellow missionaries.

- My experience today was so much fun because we got to interact with fellow missionaries that we know and love.

1/14/24 - This morning I went to a missionary farewell for a missionary starting their mission. and later after that at 11:30 I went to my friends homecoming. Then I went to a district meeting and a friend's open house.

- My experience today was so spiritual because I got to hear formal messages from a missionary who is starting out, and my friend's homecoming talk. It was honestly just so special that I got to go to both. It was special to also go to the district meeting to meet up with formal missionaries and go to my friend's open house which I honestly thought was really fun.

1/15/24 - I attended a missionary devotional online and discussed on how we can help people feel welcomed and loved so they can feel the Lord's love through our prescence and actions as we welcome them in to the Lord's church. I felt so blessed to hear what all the missionaries had to say.

- My experience hearing the missionary devotional was so inspiring just to hear the missionaries words and apply them into our own lives, and we may be a great example to others just like the Lord has for who he went to.

1/16/24 - I helped do my part at the Bishop's Storehouse like bagging produce, and helping sweeping up the floor in the big produce room, and help clean cooler windows, and cleaning carts and bathrooms. I even helped give out food orders from the coolers. I did all that after we had our Storehouse District meeting, and my lunch. Then later tonight I watched Wonka, the newest Wonka at a local Fatcats that I never been to, so for me It's a new location.

- My experience today felt to rewarding because I put more work in and I was willing to do things that many not always be my favorite thing to do but I'm sure that Lord would have wanted me to do it anyway. I'm sure I made plenty of people happy doing it.

11/17/24 - I attended my nightly institute class. and followed along on the wonderful lesson that was being taught to us. I even read the verses that was even taught in the lesson that was taught today.

- My experience today was so spiritual because I got to hear some pretty powerful words that was told to all of us. I love the Book of Mormon and all that it can teach us. So grateful to have the Book of Mormon in my life right now.

Love,

Sister Pace
