BIG News!!

WOW.  Today marks two months into my mission. So wild!  I am so grateful for this bonus time with my family.

ALBANIA.  I LEAVE NEXT WEDNESDAY FOR ALBANIA.  I am so excited oh my gosh.  I found out this week that my reassignment has been canceled and I will be going STRAIGHT to my original assignment! I thought that I had a month until I was supposed to leave to Tennessee, so the last few days have been hectic, but I love it!!! I am SO grateful for this opportunity, and I'm praying that the rest of the world can open up too!!  

TEMPLE.  My grandparents have been helping me out BIG time to be able to get a spot at a temple.  After many calls and emails, I'm going to the Provo temple next Monday!! Tender mercy.

I am so grateful that the Lord's work is always progressing, and so grateful to be a part of it.  SO PROUD of all my missionaries out there right now!  I love you all.

Esther 4:14- "Who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?"  I know that Heavenly Father has put us on Earth at this time on purpose.  And He has a plan!! If we trust in Him, we can move mountains. Esther is an awesome example of this!

So much love,
Motra Munns

December 21, 2020  Hellooo everyone! A great quarantine week! -Stunning hike @Bovila -I went back to Berat for DONA'S baptism!   She is such a light and I admire her so so much.   -Online lesson with Aina who is getting baptized on Saturday!! Quarantine has been really good;  staying obedient even in hard situations brings SHUMË blessings. We have literally seen miracles this week. I feel so close to Heavenly Father, even though I sometimes feel very far from my family and loved ones! I am reading in 3 Nephi right now and I am always touched by when the Nephites hear His voice for the first time. 3 Nephi 11:3: "They heard a voice as if it came out of heaven... and not withstanding it being a small voice it did pierce them that did hear to the center, insomuch that there was no part of their frame that it did not cause to quake; yea, it did burn them to the very soul, and did cause their hearts to burn." This is so powerful because we truly feel closest to h...

Work for the Blessings...Am I Right?

November 9, 2020  Hii!! I felt so happy to be a missionary this week, so many good things happened! We are teaching a young mom right now, Dona. We invited Dona to church and told her we would walk with her. When we showed up to her house on Sunday she had brought her mom and sons!! After, on the way home she told us that she wanted to be baptized, like really soon. It was amazing!! One of my favorite things about teaching people the gospel is watching the Spirit change their demeanor. You can see a light in their eyes. I LOVE IT. At a lesson with our neighbors this week (!!!) a lady gave me some green olives and olive oil. Yum right? Mm well, green olives straight off the tree are nottt edible. And i learned that a few weeks ago harvesting olives when I tried one! So. I ate the supppper bitter olive and smiled through the pain. Then she told me to drink the olive oil.  Did you know that drinking olive oil keeps you safe from Covid? Me neither. It was an interesting lesson to ...
