Week 56

Hello!
Oh my this week was great.
We did a lot of service, and had Zone Conference and got to learn and grow with other missionaries. Also this week was just so great because we had fun together. I am just so happy.

Something I keep being reminded of is how not so happy I was in high school. I really just hid from the world and slept forever and just watched movies to just get away. I hasn't too happy. I had insomnia and I find now that the gospel has made a huge difference. Of course becoming curious and trying to be active my senior didn't have immediate results, but slowly over time, all those issues went away. I had energy and purpose. And now I am just over joyed with all the blessings the Lord has given me.
I still have ups and down in happiness each day but even my worse is better than my highs in high school.
Just as the Lord says,
Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteous. -Isaiah 41:10
And my favorite,
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. -St. John 14:27

I know that Christ and his Gospel can heal. I know by keeping all that the Lord has commanded we can become as Him. I know He can make all things right as they should. And most of all I know He can give us JOY.
I love our Savior, I love our Father in Heaven who has created this plan.
And I love his Gospel which is provided to guide us.
I hope you all can find this as well.
Be Happy!
Love you all TONS!

Week 55

Hey! This week as been so much fun!
Things were crazy but we had a lot of fun, I love my golden girl. Sister Wilhelmsen. :)

So alright most important is the amazing things the servants of the Lord have spoken. There were so many great talks, I am just happy to know that prayers can be answered.
I went into conference with quite a few questions about various things, I prayed and told Heavenly Father my concern about each one. And each one was answered either by the speaker themselves or by the Spirit whispering to me. I love it.
Couple of talks that stood out to me:
Elder Larry R. Lawrence of the 70 talked about the things we need to steadily improve, How the Spirit can give us what we can work on it we ask sincerely and humbly "What Lack I yet?
I tried this and it works, I was given one thing to work on, not overwhelming but enough to pinch you into improvement.
Also Elder Devin G. Durrant, I loved the idea of ponderizing, we already kind of do that on our missions but now there is a word for it, haha. So right now I am ponderizing D&C 100:15, all thing will be worked out for their good if we are righteous and if it is for the Lord's church.

I'm sorry this is all somewhat dull but I really do love the inspiration of our leaders, of course there is so many more favorites I have from conference but I do hope you all watched it.
If not, just watch a talk a day!!! Like 15 mins each about....about. But I promise they are worth it, it's the words of the Lord just for you. He knows you and wants to guide you, you just have to listen.

I love you all and I hope you can grow from these inspired words.

Love,
Sister Libbey

Week 54

AHHH well here is to a new transfer!
I am still here in Indian School and I am training a new missionary!!!!
Sister Wilhelmsen from Idaho.
The cutest one here.
Sad to let Sister Rackley go but she too is off to train :) So proud.

So my thought for this week is about personal revelation.
I am so excited for General Conference!!!
Women's Conference was so great Saturday all about our Divine Nature and this week I am excited to receive more revelation for myself as well as for the people we serve.

I firmly believe that when you pray and ask God for guidance and then act and seek for that guidance through Gods servants then you will receive it. So this weekend I hope you all do the same and search for the message from God that is directly for you!

Love you all, watch conference!!!

Week 48

AHHH! Crazy News. My Area is getting 2 new missionaries and I, Sister Libbey am going somewhere else!
So Sister Morco and I are both departing from the Manzano Branch, and have been saying our goodbyes, we leave early tomorrow morning.

In other great news Jon, who we have been teaching since early May, is now a member of Gods Kingdom :)
Something I think I overall learned here in this area is NEVER GIVE UP.
Don't just stop and don't give up on anyone. Be there and just try at everything and miracles will happen. The Lord is most definitely in all aspects of the work. He finds and puts people in our path for us. He nags us with his spirit to go see people that need a visit and the word of God.
Jesus Christ NEVER gave up on us, and will never give up. He loves us and sacrificed himself just for us. He makes everything right. He makes everything possible.
Just look to him I promise he will help and heal you! He healed me!
I love you all!
See you next week!
Love,
Sister Libbey

Week 43

Hello!
All is great here on the Moons (Los Lunas) and Sister Morco and I are thinking every week we will take a fun photo, we will try to be creative.
This last week was fun because we got to help a friend enter the waters of baptism.
Baptism is so key and I am so grateful for all the blessings it brings.
When it is done by the right authority from God, we follow the example of Jesus Christ.
We make a promise with God that we will always remember Him, that we will keep His commandments and that we will represent Him.
In return we are promised the Gift of the Holy Ghost. The Spirit of God as a constant companion.
To guide, protect, enlighten and comfort, whenever we need.
I am so grateful for this promise, the Spirit is amazing. It tells me who I really am, a Daughter of God.
It guides me and comforts me. It is God's gift to help us through this life here on Earth.
Baptism is the gate to receiving these blessings, and it is a great start to the path to returning to our Father in Heaven.

Hope everyone is doing fantastic and is seeking this joy!
Love you All,
Sister Libbey

Week 41 & 42

Hey! Sorry I didn't post last week its been crazy!
So transfers!!! Sister Morco and I are staying! 3 transfers together!
Its just been great here. Excited for this next transfer!
Something I learned and loved this week is the great freedom we have here in the states. 
Well I hope everyone is reading the word of God, and is taking advantage of the great resources the Lord has provided us with to be able to learn and know Them.

Hope everyone had a great 4th of July! It was fun here. In the small town of Los Lunas there is one big park where everyone goes to watch fireworks and our apartment is two blocks down and we are on the top floor, and our windows face the park, so we had a great view!
Couple weeks ago we also got to go to Old Town in Albuquerque. Best shopping and history in one.


In the Book of Mormon the prophet Nephi prophesied of America and it being a land dedicated to be able to worship God.
We have some great freedom here founded by God. As the church says in the 11th Article of Faith;
"We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may."
I am grateful to be able to worship God. I am grateful to be here.

Stay cool this summer :)
Love,
Sister Libbey

Week 40

IT'S HOT! Hello Everyone, it is hot in New Mexico and I love it!
Can you believe it is June, July is like just around the corner!
Well It's been great.
Today I studied a lot about the covenants God has made with His children and with us.
There are so many blessings in return for the obedience to His commandments He has given us.
I just find it so beautiful and amazing all the things God has provided us with. We have so many chances and opportunities to receive every blessing He desires for us. It is never too late. Never too hard. Everything is possible with the Lords Atoning Sacrifice. We can use His strength whenever and where ever. At all times.
I love all these promises God has given us. And I am so grateful for those covenants.
3 Nephi 5:25
I love you all!! Follow Christ

Week 38

Hey!
Well we have had some great trainings on teaching, it has been so great. All I can say is God lives and really does inspire man to help bring salvation to His children. I love this work, I get to be an instrument in His hands. I am having a lot of fun here in the Los Lunas Stake and this amazing YSA branch. I am so grateful for this place and for my mission. I love the Lord, and His work.
So enjoy these photos!
Much Love,
Sister Libbey
