Every week as a
missionary is amazing.
Wednesday we had the
opportunity to go to the Mesa Easter Pageant with some investigators. IT WAS
AMAZING! We took a photo with a centurion. So that was fun. We wanted to get a
photo with the actor that plays Jesus, but we couldn't find him.
Friday we got to go
AGAIN. It was even more amazing the second time! If you don't know what it is,
please look it up. SO amazing. Here's a video.
Sunday we got to
attend stake conference which was amazing. The stake presidency here has so
much love for the people in this area. A couple of them got emotional when
talking about being able to serve in this area. I definitely felt the spirit
and it made me emotional as well because I LOVE this area and these people and
this is my one chance to serve them. I want to make it the best I can.
Sunday evening we had
our Missionary Choir Concert. It was amazing. The building was packed and the
spirit was so strong. I got to see several people from my last area, which was
so fun! It was just a wonderful evening.
Interesting food
update, I've been sick for the pas week so I am no longer allowed to have
gluten or dairy, as per my mission nurse. So basically all the fun stuff is out
of my diet. All well, I'm hoping that it improves my health. We shall see :)
I love being a missionary.
I hope that you can feel that through my emails and photos. This is the
hardest, but greatest thing that I have ever done. I think about where my life
would be without my decision to serve a mission and it kind of makes me sad.
The Gospel of Jesus Christ has EVERYTHING to offer and how can I not sacrifice
18 months of my life to offer it to others? I know that Christ lives and that
he was resurrected so that we can also be resurrected. I am so grateful for my
knowledge of the Savior.
