Sister Barlow in Dakotas

Merry Christmas! I hope you were able to feel loved this week! I'm super sad it's over because people loved light the world! People are so willing to hear about Christ during the season! But here we go onto a new year!  I WAS RECOGNIZED! We went to mutual and one of the yw asked me if I was the "Eve Barlow from Utah" and she told me her family watches the music videos I was in all the time! AH that was so crazy!  The Aberdeen ward made our Christmas unforgettable! They made us a breakfast of gingerbread muffins and hash then they gave us giant red stockings to go pick up our Christmas gifts from the ward. The activity lasted a few hours (mostly driving lol) but I can't get over how thoughtful these people are.  We gave each family a lesson and invitation to #LighttheWorld all year round!  If you want the vibe of Aberdeen go listen to Aberdeen- Avi Kaplan. My sister found it and it is spot on!  We have been pretty lucky not having too bad of weather. On Christmas...

Hyrum! Im keeping that poem forever! I love you! Go do some squats and think of me Mari! The art sounds fun! Im so glad to hear you focused on christ! Love you!  Mom! What a cool expirence!

We have another college here called presentation college. I havnt been on campus yet but ill see what i can find!  love you all!

Wasa dude! I told you about the gift I gave to Anna, and we just talked, so this letter will be a bit empty. I love the lava lamp I got, and I turn it on every day, and I think of the old one you had. We have fun game where we talk like cave men and try to speak bad to tell of things. It's called Poetry for Neanderthals. I don't know what else to talk about, so I'll end my letter with a poem, cus why not.  There isn't much to write, it's not out of spite If I knew what to say, I would write all day But the words elude me, The whole I cannot see good luck I guess, I don't love you less You do the good work, that you cannot shurk I love you a lot, Not to put i on the spot Have fun, Gotta run Hyrum Barlow Heyy Eve So this week was a bopping time. I did alot of art this week (pretty good if I do say so myself) I drew a picture of Christ and a llama. I found out my friend has covid!( what fun) I wasn't around her for at least two weeks so that's good! This ye...

Before I ramble about my missionary life I want to thank so many of you who reached out to send gifts for the Mizzle Family! They will have a wonderful Christmas!  Anyhoozers... It was another amazing week in the town of Aberdeen. I love Christmas because more people are open to talking of Christ! Believe it or not, but SD has yet to be hit with a big snow storm! We are living the high life over here! The wind is brutal. But we are counting our blessings!  I LOVE ALL THESE CHRISTMAS CARDS! I've been hanging them in my closet and AH i love them!  The NDBM is exercising our faith and trying every way possible to invite people to be baptised! If you haven't seen the ad i shared on Facebook go look at it. It literally says "want to be baptized?". Got to be gutsy to find the elect.  One of my favorite books is called "The Divine Gift of Forgiveness" by Neil L Anderson and it is so insightful. My favorite quote from it is "if you are determined to sincerely r...

Heyo! So this week has been really hectic. It was our miny Oquirrh Festthis week. It was a blast. So sum of it, the lunch ladies hate us, we broke to plungers, 2 plungers got stuck on the ceiling (different plungers),everyone is on a sugar rush,  Mark Horner did improv dance to some Christmas songs to raise money, and all the SBO's rolled each other down the halls in tires! So overall it's a very productive week! Also I found out that an 8th grader has a crush on me. We also had our voice/piano recitals this week, I think it went pretty good. oh ya also I don't know if I told you but I made Newsies ! we had our first rehearsal this week it was a booping time! It was practically a big single along. Today we Sang in church. I think we did ok. I also sang in a YW devotional. I'm so thankful that I am able to use my talents for good. So ya this week has been really productive!:) I hope your week has gone great!  I love you , I LOve you, I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

What a crazy week for the Aberdeen sisters! Our schedule has been jam packed! We usually didn't get a lunch or dinner hour and some days a breakfast hour.  It's a missionary's dream! We are so lucky to have so many people to teach!  We had our mission conference with Brother and Sister Yaggi this week! They gave us lots of really good challenges! One of them is creating each day to be a sacred grove day. Meaning, you make a plan for spiritual growth and then follow it exactly! Our first sacred grove day was my best day out here! He followed our challenge that day with another challenge to message 20 people! He promised one of them would become a new person we can teach! And as promises came I met my new friend Amy! She knows of our church and has had a lot of positive experiences with us. She is battling cancer currently but she told us she knows that us crossing paths was not a coincidence! Please pray for her!  Our good friend Jay brought his three little girls to the c...

Hello friend   I have good news! I made Matilda! I'm a Little Kid. I don't know what that means. SilverRush is going well, but it's almost over, and that's pretty sad. I don't know what to write about honestly. I'm woefully unprepared for all the recitals I have next week. I have my choir recital on Wednesday, and I have both the voice recital and the piano recital on friday. so yeah. Idk. Hope you're doing good. Hyrum HEY!! SISTER BARLOW!!! OVER HERE!!!

I'm not very prepared so im gonna practice a lot this next week. I got to have a sleepover with sami this week. That was rea...
