We had a decent week, it was full of knocking on empty
houses! Haha it seemed like nobody was home this week, it was hard but
we are still doing good! We got to go on a hike with the Elders Quorum
on Saturday! That was pretty cool! I got a taste of what my parents were
doing all week! It was pretty nice, the view was gorgeous up top. I'll
attach some pictures of it to this email. Down through that canyon is
Salt Lake City, it was beautiful.
We found some new
investigators which is great.
I
heard the Blue Jays made some crazy good trades! That means it's going
to be a Jays vs. Cardinals World Series right? My 2 favorite teams could
make the World Series this year? That's so awesome! And of course it is
a likely possibility one of the years I'm on my mission... lol haha
well we'll see what happens!
I love this work! The other day I
was reading in the Ensign. I read an article from Boyd K. Packer the
other day, it talked about Jesus Christ and his Atonement for us. He
explained how Christ was perfectly obedient, and how we compare to Jesus
Christ. One interesting thing he noted was that Christ never had sin,
or transgression, but he still had weakness. That's why he can relate to
us always, because he had weakness and he understands how we can
overcome temptation and conquer our weaknesses, just like he did. It was
a good article, I think it was from the June Ensign for this year. Look
it up!
I had a great visit with Todd and Shauna Jones from back home. Lunch with the Jones was awesome! I loved being able to see some friends
from back home, it was a wonderful experience. They said I don't look
fat so that's a good sign! Haha. The Lion House Cafe was delicious, I
loved the food but it was also really cool because that trip was my
companions first time at temple square! He loved it too! Family and
friends are such a blessing and I'm so grateful for all the support I
have back home.
We also had Zone Conferences last week and it went
very well! President Spendlove is such an amazing teacher, we focused on
how the Gospel of Jesus Christ can permanently change us, and help us
become more consecrated servants for the Lord Jesus Christ.
I love you all and thanks for everything!
Love,
Elder Strate
