Fire!

Hello!  Well I am going to make this pretty short because I want to go play sports.  I miss just playing for hours and hours.  But we will do it today.  We go to a place called the Sportsplex in Kaysville.  It is free for missionaries and it is basically a whole gym place with an indoor field and a trampoline park and all sorts of stuff.  Im excited.

 

Anyway,  This week was great.  Had a leadership training on Tuesday.  Im seeing more and more what it takes to be a better leader.  Im still not very good at it, but I am trying.  I feel so blessed to get to try to help others especially missionaries in this work.  It is awesome.  So ya.

We taught a lot of lessons this week.  It was great.  We took a family down to temple square to have a lesson there with the sister missionaries.  We had a short tour there and looked at the temple and explained to them what is done there and what blessings come from it.  The spirit was strong, and they recognized it and now they have a firm goal to be sealed in the temple.  They are preparing for baptism this coming Saturday the 24th.  Also a young man named Christopher Miles is going to be baptized this Saturday!  He is awesome.  Very smart and understands what the spirit feels like.  He is only 11 or 12 yrs old!  Way cool.  Their family is also looking to be sealed together in the spring of next year. I love how this work gets families pointed toward the temple.  :)

 

Well, other than that we had a fire really close to us.  Just on the mountain in Farmington!  I'll attach some pictures.  It was big.  It took about a day to get it out.  But no damage was done to any homes.  Also this week one of the sister missionaries in our zone had to go home early for medical reasons.   It was sad to see her go. She is a great missionary and very nice to everyone around, but it is better that she went home so that she could get better.  She may try to come back out soon. 

 

Side note, I got to listen to Trevor Luke's homecoming talk!  It was very good.  He is an awesome missionary!  He has come out to teach with us before and he brings a great spirit with him.  So ya.  I also saw the Mannings there!  And the Evans family!  All families that have moved here from Colorado.  They said hi to you all back home.  

 

Then today we got to go to the temple. :)  I always love those trips.  Its so good to just be there and listen and feel so good. 

 

Okay.  Im going to keep it short.  I love you all! Keep being awesome.

God lives and loves us.

Jesus Christ is our Savior and Redeemer.

The church is true.

 

Godspeed.
