"Please bless me with angels to bear me up!"

So lets just begin with a prayer that I said this Monday morning which was the morning on transfers. I was so nervous. So nervous to leave Danbury + Sister Tua'one & change. I said in my prayer
"Heavenly Father. Please bless me with angels round about to bear me up."
I an reminded to do this often through one of my favorite scriptures. 
D&C 84:88
I love it and I use it all the time in prayers, SUCH a comfort. 

I am here in New Rochelle with the cute Hermana Clark! We are excitied to work hard together & see many miracles. 

Mini miracle:
We were knocking doors, this young man opened up his door and asked for us to come in to eat cookies with is family. So we went in and we began to share our testimonies about our favorite book! (The Book of Mormon) and when we explained that The Book of Mormon is a record of Gods interaction with the people of ancient America HE got SO excitied and had to stop to tell us that last week he was researching about NUNS + ANCIENT AMERICA and then we knocked his door!
How cool! Heavenly Father works in mysterious ways. :)

I am so thankful for all of the angels that he sent me to answer my prayers and that God heard my prayer. The members have been so sweet and welcoming! I am excitied to be here in New Rochelle! 
Thank you for your prayers
LOVE YOU ALL!
Have a happy day :)

Happy Valentine's Day

2 Nephi 5:27
"And it came to pass that we lived after the manner of happiness."

Yesterday, I was able to gather with all of the sister missionaries to celebrate LOVE & JOY together. I had been anxiously awaiting the arrival of this party since I had arrived in the mission field. (I just LOVE, love.)
We were able to discuss this scripture that is found in 2 Nephi, it is one of my favorites because I KNOW that we are here to expierence happiness & love. The storms of life WILL come but we can use our agency each and every day live after the manner of happiness....❤

Speaking of love, 
I LOVE Danbury, CT. Like a head over heels kind of love... The people are GEMS! I have made friends that I will stay in contact with for the rest of forever, the branch is incredible and the work is hastening very quickly. I thought I'd never be able to love another area as much as I had loved Harlem, NY but I was WRONG! 
My heart is heavy with a whole bunch of mixed emotions to know that I will be leaving Danbury this coming Tuesday.

Last Valentines day I was decorating heart shapped sugar cookies, messily, with my mom. (because sometimes love is messy)
To fill my soul this Valentine's day, Hermana Tua'one and I are traveling to the Manhattan temple! 
It will be a magical day. 
I LOVE you ALL & am thankful for the LOVE you send ME. 
XOXO,
Hermana Worley

The month of LOVE ❤

February is here & we are so happy about it!

This past week was filled with a lot of goodness. We were able to heart attack some doors + begin a Bible Study class + invite anyone and everyone to our Branch Valentine's party this Saturday evening!

 One of my favorite moments of the week happened last night. 
Hermana Tua'one + I had just gotten out of a lesson and we felt that there is somewhere specific that we needed to be but we weren't certain where. 
So we prayed, pulled out the map of our area and Hna Tua'one put her finger on a certain area.
 (Which was so cool because I was feelin the same place!)

So we got in our car & drove over there. 
Our plans were to go visit a less active member.
She was home! The spirit was so strong!
After we left her home, we were walking towards our car and a man said
"Hey are you Jehovah Witnesses?" 
And we were able to explain that we were Mormons and had a super awesome conversation about the gospel + Jesus Christ + The Book of Mormon. He is from Brazil and had met with elders before he moved to the U.S. We were able to exchange info and get him an appointment with our Portuguese missionaries!
It was a tender confirmation of knowing that we were right where we were supposed to be. 

The work is moving forward & I am thankful for the love of our Savior.

I'm sending you all prayers and LOVE!

Yours truly,
Hermana Worley
