Hello everyone!!     Ah, this week was so good and was so filled with the spirit!!     Last Monday we had FHE that night and the activity was to capture the flag! I always feel bad going to activities especially when our friends don't show up but was reminded that member work is one of the most important parts of missionary work! Sister Cutler was playing and I was talking with some members that were playing and we both spotted someone who looked like they wanted to join the game! We both started walking towards him with a member and got him to play! His name is Yousheng and he is so cool! One of our members even spoke mandarin to him when he couldn't quite understand because he served in Taiwan! Everything just kind of fell into place! God knows what he is doing! We had a lesson later that week and he said he doesn't quite believe in God but he is willing to pray! He said his first prayer with us and it was such a tender moment!     One of our other friend...

Hello everyone!! We have transfers this week and I will be staying in Madison with Sister Cutler! I honestly thought I would leave but I am so excited to stay!  We had exchanges this week with Platteville! It was so fun to be in a small town with Sister Lovell and sister Hollingsworth! We got to their apartment and there was a lady sitting out on the lawn and I kept getting the feeling to go talk to her so we did! She didn't speak much English but we decided to share a message with her anyway! The gift of tongues is so real! Through the Spirit she was able to understand every word I said and was so excited to learn more! We even were able to give her a Spanish Book of Mormon and she kept realing it when we walked away! It was so fun being with my old comp!  We finally met damein our friend that we have on date in person! He keeps giving us people to teach which is so awesome! The elders in our ward had a baptism this week that Da'mein got to watch on zoom! We also had a dinner...

Hi everyone!!     This week we had exchanges with the Verona sisters! I stayed in our area and it went well!! We made some fun meals out of what we found in the fridge haha!      We found out one of our friends is getting baptized in another church next week which was really sad but we are going to try and teach him the restoration again so we will see how that goes! We had some really good lessons with him last week!     We had lots of good lessons with members this week! I love our members!!     We found a guy last week that had a lot of friends in the car so we shared a message with him and then asked if he wanted to meet again and two of his friends wanted another message too!!     We got to go to the capitol and see the inside today which was fun!  Sorry this is so short but I love you all and I miss you!!     ♡Sister McGary      Pictures: 1.

Hello everyone!!      We had exchanges last week with the Madison 3 sisters and they are adorable! I got to go out to Middleton and see all the farms which was so fun! Hermana Lym and Sister Fessler are the funniest people ever! We called a guy on Facebook that night who was a little tipsy and was so confused who we are and why we were calling. He was so excited to hear a message and to pray and remembered us the next morning!! We also almost set up a lesson with a known basher I am so glad someone told us about him!     We also did a lot of street contacting last week because it was so nice out! I did not realize how much of a party school this was until we walked past all of the party houses and it was like 1:00 pm and they were partying? Sometimes I forget I am on a college campus that is not in Utah! This week we had a ton of conferences! We had our mission leadership council and it was so good! President is preparing us for the new mission president so we t...
