Those were some of the greatest pictures I have ever seen in all of
my life ha ha! I laughed WAY hard when I saw Caden's after picture!!
YIKESS!!! But the boys are all looking SOOO good!!! For reals... haha
HUGE too!!! I cant even believe it. Its a stinkin
Joke, that's for sure! The only bad thing about one of those pictures is
that the Canadian flag is almost all the way colored in ha ha... BAD JOKE
for sure!!! Yikes... Time is just creeping by SOO fast.. almost too fast
if you ask me!
This week was a pretty chill one for sure! I really enjoyed it! My
companion and I are getting along SOOO well haha! He is a stud and a
half! For reals.. I think he is going to be an Assistant to the
President one of the these days! He just works like
a horse. We are loving it so much! CRYIN REPENTANCE JUST CRYIN
REPENTANCE hahah!
This week we were able to help xxxxx (the man who was baptized
like 2 weeks) be confirmed! It was pretty gnarly! I loved loved loved
it! I was actually able to confirm him, and it was a very neat
experience for sure! I felt the Spirit very strongly
and it helped me truly understand the power of the priesthood!
I'm not going to lie, the heat and humidity here are awful haha! Its
SO blasted hard to be positive when you are drenched in sweat and
dehydrated! Its pretty intense sometimes haha! But its still going
really well.
I gained one of the strongest testimonies of member missionary work
this past week here in Barrie. There is this family here and they have
a daughter who lives in Utah with her family... But she came back up
here to visit this last week. We were going
to pass by some of the members and we passed by them! It was pretty
intense when she was like "Ive been thinking about some of the people I
knew back when I lived here, and I really wanted you to pass by them. I
don't remember their addresses but we'll go around and
get them." So us her, and her dad went and drove around and found over
20 houses to pass by... Now... That NEVER happens... NEVER EVER. Maybe
like one or two... but twenty???!! Honestly, It helped me understand
that when people understand the importance of
the Gospel of Jesus Christ, they are more willing to share that message
with those who don't have it.
I have gained quite the testimony over the course of my mission on
WHAT the Atonement is, HOW it effects us, and WHY it is important.
Honestly, all of us are capable of receiving the Atonement, we all just
need to go find it first. One of the most incredible
things about the Atonement, is the more we understand it, the greater
our witness of the Savior grows. The more that witness grows the more
we want to, and actually desire to share it with those around us. There
are so many people who pass life with struggles that
could so easily be surpassed if they just found the Gospel of Jesus
Christ and the Atonement which it is centered on. I love the gospel, and
the joy it brings to people. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't talk to me in
specifics about how much time I have left... ha ha I
need to focus and finish strong. I love you all so much, just keep
smiling!
Forever and Always,
