 Oct 18, 2021 Hello everybody!  So update on the life! I am back in St. Cloud. My new area is called Canoe Creek and it is so great! My new comp is named Sister Blanchard and she is the best! I am super blessed to have her right now because this area is a tough one for finding people, but she is super willing and ready to work to find the elect here! We have already seen lots and lots of miracles so hopefully those will keep on coming.  Also! I hit my year mark this week! Woot woot! It honestly feels like just yesterday I started the MTC and started this crazy journey. I celebrated with an Aggie Blue Mint cookie from Crumbl. God is so good. He knew the way I would want to celebrate! This last week we set a goal to find 5 new people. We wanted to find one person using 5 different finding methods. One from Facebook, Instagram, referrals, area book and members. We found our Facebook and referral one on Friday. Then on Saturday we found someone on Instagram and someone from our area book.

 Oct 4, 2021 Hello everybody!  I hope you all had a fantastic week and an even better conference weekend! Conference really does feel like a holiday when you are a missionary haha!  We got transfer news this week! I am headed back to St. Cloud! I am going to be serving in the Canoe Creek area which is in the same stake as Narcoossee, which is where I started! When President called us, he said, "Sister Wixom I know you were just there, but..." lol. I don't know exactly why I need to go back, but I guess there is more work for me to do there! Of course I am so sad to be leaving Vero. I have grown to love so many wonderful people here! This weekend has been full of pictures and goodbyes, and maybe a couple of tears! I am grateful for the things I have been able to learn while being here and the miracles I have seen! Can't wait to see what Canoe Creek has in store for me! Biggest part of the week: Dave's baptism!!! It was so good! He kept saying "I'm floating

It's beginning to look a lot like Halloween

September 27, 2021 Hello everybody!  I'll just start off by saying, this week was a weird one. We had a few lessons cancel and a lot of people weren't able to meet, but it still went by pretty quick since it's Monday again! I did have a few highlights I want to share!  Dave! Dave is our miracle friend that just TWO WEEKS AGO decided he was ready to get baptized. We have been meeting with him and this week we went over the gospel of Jesus Christ and specifically what it means to endure to the end. We covered so much, but he just soaks it in, and then asks really great questions. We had a good discussion all about faith, which I'll come back to in a minute, and he would say things like, "How could you not have faith" or "I am totally good with faith". There are just some people that you can tell have the firmest foundation and ready to receive this message! Well...Dave is getting baptized tomorrow night and I could not be more excited for him! He told
