Letter #44- Mighty change!

October 28, 2014

Everyone,
So this week is transfers and I will be getting a new companion, I
will be sure to tell you about her soon.This week has been great, we
had a lesson with a lady named Stephanie and her two little daughters.
which went very well especially having a member present with us, it
just adds more testimonies to what we have to share. Went on
companionship exchanges. We had the ward trunk or treat which was a
ton of fun and a lot of members with awesome costumes. Some wonder
women or super heroes, others characters from frozen. Went on a hike
with sisters in Middleburg, Florida which was fun. Oh I never have
told you but here in Orange park there are quite a few people who work
for the navy which is really neat but also means at times we loss some
members but we know the lord places us where we need to be and work
at. Keep doing awesome missionary work and enjoy the temple open
house! Ever onward!
With love,
Sister-Hatch

Letter #43- Armor of God

October 20, 2014

Everyone,

Put on the armor of God! (but also make sure it fits you well, hehe!). This week has been great! Going where the lord needs us to be, sharing what needs to be said to the listeners, helping a member with their yard, doing tai chi and enjoying smoothies with the sisters of the ward, also getting to help in nursery for a little bit on Sunday! We had a pretty good week meeting up with people! With the song I have put below we are all enlisted and we all have our suits on for battle, which the fight with advisory is real we just need to make sure is always at hands. Follow the councils and guidances that are given to us at the ready for what may come at us! Love you all very much! 

With love,

Sister Hatch

	Happy are we! Happy are we!
	Soldiers in the army, there’s a bright crown in store;
	We shall win and wear it by and by.
	Haste to the battle, quick to the field;
	Truth is our helmet, buckler, and shield.
	Stand by our colors; proudly they wave!
	We’re joyfully, joyfully marching to our home.
	We are all enlisted till the conflict is o’er;
	Happy are we! Happy are we!
	Soldiers in the army, there’s a bright crown in store;
	We shall win and wear it by and by." Hymn #250

Letter #42 - Going On!

October 13, 2014

Everyone,

It has been a great week. we have been busy working with church members and helping our neighborly hospice community thrift store. There is for sure a lot work to come along as we help struggling members make steps back towards church. I have learned thus far how important it is to Listen, Focus and Act on feelings you may have because with out those things there wont be much helping others come unto Jesus Christ and feel his love. I know the Savior knows the intents of our hearts and is always ready to help us get us to where we need to be. How grateful I am for this gospel, the love and support we missionaries out here and back at home. Keep on, Keeping on! Smile on! 

With Love,

Sister Hatch

Letter #41- General Conference according to Sister Hatch

October 6, 2014

Everyone,

So most of you have watched or heard General Conference! If not, I suggest you do because it is very neat to hear those inspiring messages! I especially liked it when Elder Allan F. Packer Spoke about the story of his Hatchet and how its important to focus, take the cover off and go to work! or When President Thomas S. Monson spoke about Jesus Christ and how "Walking where Jesus walked is not as important as walking AS Jesus walked". I just LOVE conference! 

Well aside from Conference we had a pretty good week, getting people excited for conference, lessons with investigators at members homes, members coming out to visit children of God with us and sharing thoughts with those that need strengthening! Enjoy Pheonix open house and Dedication as well Dont forget to see "Meet the Mormons" its a really sweet movie! I love you all! 

With Love,

Sister E. Hatch

Letter #40- Name Tags and Coming to Church

September 29, 2014

Everyone,

So this week has been grand filled with miracles and a great Birthday! Thanks to all those who had wished me a happy birthday! So the biggest miracle we had this week was before the Women's Broadcast when we knocked on a ladies door, her name is Wendy and she has a son named Richie! When we knocked she answered then stared our name tags for a little while and then said " Can you get us a ride to church?" Sister Blatter and I said "yes!" and so we exchanged information to let her know who's picking her up. Our evening went on, enjoyed Women's broadcast which a member who hasn't been to church in a while came and enjoyed it! Next day we waited to see her and the members walk through the chapel doors and when we saw them she and her son sat by us. They enjoyed church for the first time in 30 years (she used to go to baptist church)! After Church she invited us over for lunch, enjoyed talking with her and answering questions she had for us! From this miracle I have realized how important it is to have and us the Christ like attributes because as a missionary we bear his name on our tags and as members it his name should be written in our hearts! I am excited for General Conference and I hope you all are too, Don't forget to do the Facebook event #Theprophetspeaks to see some neat testimonies and to ask missionaries questions, as well as what Sister Ramsay Hatch Said to request meet the mormons to play in a theatre near you! I love you all and Hope you all keep dry with the weather in Arizona!

With Love,

Sister Hatch
