So
I don't really have much to say since I spoke to you just yesterday!
But
I do know without a shadow of a doubt that my Savior lives! I know that He is
infinite, that His work and ministry did not begin in Bethlehem nor ended on
Calvary. I know that the Atonement is real. I am so grateful to be able to
witness the many miracles He brings about every day in the lives of so many
people. I'm so grateful that I've been able to develop my personal relationship
with Christ as a missionary, and I'll continue to grow in that relationship for
the rest of my life. He is my everything and I love Him so dearly!
Oh
and during the mission devotional President Palmer spoke about how there are
about 150 missionaries in this mission, and I don't know how many millions of
people that live within the boundaries of this mission. So he did the math and
each missionary has to reach out to about 10,000 people during our time serving
here. That's a ton! He spoke about how we are like the shepherds from the
nativity story, that we should make "haste" in order to take care of
the people that the Lord has given us to share the gospel with. Great stuff!
Love
you!

I
got these socks for Christmas from some members. They have space-ships
abducting dinosaurs. I'm planning on wearing these under my wedding dress when
I get married some day.
These
are the elders that are serving in our same ward!
