Hey Y’all!

This has been a crazy week! It started out with lots of snow on Monday so for preparation day we were stuck in our apartment. Then we spent Tuesday shoveling snow. Then Friday the snow machine malfunctioned and it snowed all flippin day! We were grounded again and couldn’t go out!

So Friday, Saturday and Sunday were long days. Church was cancelled and we shoveled a lot of snow but we still were able to talk to people and be missionaries (:

Other than that we have had a good week. We had a lesson with a new investigator, Bill who is an atheist. That was interesting!

I have been studying about the Savior and His atonement in Matthew Mark Luke and John and comparing them all together. In the book of Luke I love when the Savior says let this cup pass from me but not my will but thy will be done. This is such a powerful statement. We can also apply this to every aspect of our lives. Often times we want to do something but the Lord has a different plan in mind. We must always remember that the Lord knows what’s best for us and we need to always counsel with the Lord in everything we do as it says in Alma 37:37. “Counsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for good; yea, when thou liest down at night lie down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and when thou risest in the morning let thy heart be full of thanks unto God; and if ye do these things, ye shall be lifted up at the last day.”

The Gospel is such a blessing to have in our lives and I love sharing it with others and bringing joy to all those who will hear our words! We are so blessed and I am so thankful for all of y’alls love, support and prayers!

Love y’all and have a great week!
