Letter #59- Work of the lord hastening on!

February 9, 2015
Everyone!
It's been a great week! We have been busy working with all that we
have met with! The members are the best coming out to meet others with
us! I am grateful for the Book of Mormon and for the truthfulness it
holds for all of its children of God. It is a book with a promise and
gives us, just as the bible does, the directions and guidance we need.
It shows the love that our Heavenly Father has for all of his
children! There can be so many today that will view the Book of Mormon
differently but what I know will always be true in my heart! I exhort
you my brothers and sisters if you haven't gotten a testimony of the
Book of Mormon to sincerely pray and read about it! I love you all!
Happy Valentine's Day!
With love,
sister Hatch!


Letter #58- #FebruaryofFaith

February 2, 2015 
Everyone,
It's been a great week. We are enjoying sharing with people about the
Book of Mormon, riding bikes and smiling all the while. We are looking
forward to a great month of miracles by our faith! I know there are
great ahead of us this month! We met with Chandyn which is going good
and having the members help us is always great! Biking once in a while
is a such a great opportunity talking with everyone! I love you all!








Letter #57- Stop and smell the roses

January 26, 2015
Everyone,
This week has been great! We meet with Chandyn on Tuesday and that was
a great lesson with him and the bells (members) on the plan of
salvation. We have been busy going out and about talking with
people.checking on less active and recent converts here and there.
There was one day we walked up to a house and there was a rose tree.it
reminded me of that phrase 'stop and smell the roses' which my family
had used quit a bit as well! There can be so much to do as a
missionary and it's always nice to stop and smell the roses! I know as
we take line upon Lin then all else will fall in the hands of the
lord! I love you all!
With love,
Sister-Hatch


Letter #56- #embark #discoverthebook #f2bm

January 20, 2015
Dearest Everyone,
This week has been great! Monday we saw Zach which was a pretty good
lesson. Through out the week we saw Chandyn who we will be seeing
again today. Tuesday we saw sister Haynes and met a sister named
Tabatha who is really sweet and a missionary mom! Wednesday we as a
mission got to see Elder Neil L. Anderson, which was really awesome
and he is such a sweet man who has a really strong testimony of the
prophet Joseph smith. Which we as a mission are again doing the
discover the book event to promote the importance of the Book of
Mormon! Thursday we meet with Kanoi who is a sweet lady from Hawaii.
Friday we saw Melody and Lee which that was great visit. Saturday had
a fun relief society activity which Kanoi came to and really enjoyed
it! After that we went with the op second Ward Ward sisters to help
out at Henderson haven, we spray painted tires and picnic tables.
Which was a lot of fun! Sunday Kanoi, Chandyn, and Lee came to
church. They all had a pretty great time! The little letters on of the
tire stand for free 2 be me and I find that very true as all of being
a child of God we are given that freedom to choose. We are excited for
another great week ahead of us! I love you all!
With love,
Sister-Hatch

Letter #55- A broken heart and contrite spirit!

January 12, 2015
Everyone,
It's been a busy but fun week! Starting off, we were doing some work
in the family when a man named Zach came walking up to the door! He
asked when the church services were and we told him, leaving him with
our information. He called us later in the day and asked if we could
meet so he could learn about the church. We set up a time and meet
with him a couple of times so far, how grateful I am to have member
present because they can really help bring the spirit! Chandyn came to
church again and he really enjoyed it! Zach invited us to come and
help out at a wheelchair rugby tournament which was fun and worth
while because there were a lot of people there to talk to! I know the
lord puts us in places for specific reasons and purpose! How grateful
I am for this gospel and the love our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ
has for all of us! Embark in the service of God!
With love,
Sister-Hatch

Letter #54- Don't underestimate!

January 5, 2015
Dear everyone!
Happy Twenty-Fifteen! I hope you all had an enjoyable week and have
some great goals in mind! So this week, we went to see potentials and
to catch up with those we hadn't seen in a while. I must say it gets
exciting when people are keeping commitments because it shows how much
love and excitement they are getting for the gospel in their life! We
meet this one young man named Chandyn who was riding on his bike and
we just waved at him and said 'hey can we give you a card' and he said
sure. So we gave him a card and then talked with him about the
restoration of the gospel! We invited him to church and he came. Okay
so funny story with Chandyn, sister winkler and I both thought he was
17 but he is actually 25 so the Bells (a ym&yw leader) gave him a ride
to church, when we went to talk with him at church he said his age, we
just had a laugh because we guessed his age wrong! So when it comes to
the creation of our Heavenly Father don't underestimate your potential
as his sons and daughters because you have great work! We are going to
be seeing more great miracles this upcoming week! Love you all!

Letter #53- Christmas and New Years!

December 29, 2014
Everyone,
Ok so Christmas has past and gone but I wont forget the reason for this season and the gift that was so freely given to every single one of us! New years is coming upon us fast and a lot of people are working to set goals and resolutions for the year of 2015! There were a ton of miracles this week being a little crazy. First made cupcakes with a less active sister which was fun.Visited Charlotte a fun elderly sister in the ward. Christmas day went caroling at elderly ladies home, in the evening went caroling with orange park second ward sisters which was a lot of fun and we saw the Lehmans! Had fun skyping family after having dinner with the Lovenburgs! Saturday was a day we were trying to figure out what to do but ended up meeting the Lewis family who are really nice. Sunday enjoyed church and ended that night after dinner with the Sopolskis seeing our investigator Wendy! All these miracles came about because of goals and plans that we set to achieve and with what we set we are accountable for those! With this new year coming up set goals that will help you be accountable and that can stretch you beyond what you are capable of! I know there are great blessings in store for every single one of us as we strive to reach that! I love you all! Happy New Year! 
With Love,
Sister Hatch
