My conversion through missionaries

It was back in 2007 when my family was in deep chaos and sorrows. Daddy drank all day long while mom awaited his return with deep concern. I would always argue with my sister just for their thoughts of divorce.  There was no way I would let that happen! But the one thing that helped me through was prayer which wasn't perfect at the time but always heartfelt. Until one day my father's sister introduced me to the Mormon missionaries who became one of the best friends I ever had : Elder Watts (from Australia) and Elder Wabol (From Guam). Meeting them was the best memories of my life as their sincere care and patience with me really changed my life and gave me the strength to overcome my sorrows at home. As days grew into weeks and months I learned a great deal about who I am and of how heavenly father has a plan of happiness for us all. The missionaries' kindness and teachings really taught me a lot and made me stronger for my family situation until I got baptized. I can never forget the strong and sweet feelings of assurance that the Holy Ghost gave me as they taught me reminding me of who I am as a daughter of God and of how my faith can really help my family.

I was blessed with the knowledge of my Savior's love for me and my family through the missionaries who really touched me with their unfailing desire for me to know the truth and the way to overcome my sorrows as a young child. After my baptism I became a really faithful member of the church and dealt better with my family situation.  I became a light in my family and after a few years later my family joined the church and going to church as a family as well as church activities was one of the best moments in my life. They were the most peaceful and joyful family moments we ever had.

Later on, the missionaries became a big part of our lives and we would always invite them over for family dinner as I loved the spiritual thoughts and the joyful spirit they always brought with them. The missionaries played a very big part in my life because if it weren't for them I wouldn't have been able to cope with my family situation as a kid and would have  never known who I really am and why I'm here with my family.

Now it's been like 10 years as a latter day saint and I've been living my best to my baptismal covenant to always follow Christ's example and it is indeed a great challenge but the most joyful path. Even when others treat me indiffrrent I am grateful that I know who I am and that no matter what others say living the gospel is more important to me.
As of now I have been called to serve as a missionary in Guam (my eldsr wabol's country) which is the greatest blessing I've ever been given.

I am ever grateful to the missionaries who reached out to me in my darkest days because now I know how to deal with life and  have been blessed by so many opportunities to learn and grow.  I finally know how to turn to the Lord instead of to the world when I face devastating dilemmas. Heavenly father loves us all deeply much more than we can ever imagine . I know for a fact that he gave us his missionaries to help us know his plan of happiness for us and our families so that we may know how to return to him. I bear you my witness that these things are true. In the sacred name of Jesus Christ , amen.
