Heeyyyaa!

Well hello everyone. This week was slightly less eventful than last week. I'd say sorry, but I'm not sorry at all actually.

Here is the highlight! We went to visit Lilianna this week. She said she is still praying about baptism and she knows she needs to be baptized but she isn't sure she has gotten an answer for herself. We read from the Book of Mormon with her and talked about how answers to our prayers can come from the scriptures. She read in 2 Nephi 31 looking for an answer. As she read the verse talking about how Christ was baptized so everyone needs to be baptized she just smiled. She couldn't stop smiling actually. It was awesome. She definitely got her answer!

The rest of this week was crazy busy with nothing and everything.
Church was awesome. We are having a hard time getting people to come to church, though. I never realized how important church attendance really is. As we go to church, we renew the covenants we made when we were baptized. Every week we have the opportunity to feel like we have been baptized again. We can be sanctified by the gift of the Holy Ghost. We cleanse ourself from the things of the world and make more room for the Savior in our lives. Before I went on a mission I never thought I would spend SO much time trying to get people to come to church and experience that joy. Pretty much every single day of my life. If you haven't been to church in a while... Try it out. Here is your official invitation to sacrifice the things of the world for something and someone so much better.

Love you all!
