Oh How Lovely Was the Morning...


This week was probably one of the most spiritual weeks of my mission.
We had the incredible opportunity to have a MISSION CONFERENCE with presiding authority Elder Gary E. Stevenson of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. Accompanying him was Presiding Bishop, Bishop Causse, Returning member of the Seventy Elder Klebingat, and Area seventy Elder Carter. Yeah. You could have called this a spiritual FEAST! We got to shake each of their hands and have a "personal interview" as we did so. It was a really neat experience.

Elder Klebingat visited our mission a few months ago, so it was really cool to have him come back and "follow-up" on how we have been applying the things he taught us. He has a special place in my heart because he really helped change my perspective on a lot of things and become the missionary I am today. I was thrilled to hear from him again.

Elder Stevenson really focused on our purpose as missionaries. I can't express how grateful I am to have a tag on my heart everyday. The work of a missionary is a sacred thing. I feel so blessed to be part of it.
It was such a powerful thing to listen to him bear his special witness and leave upon us missionaries an apostolic blessing that we will understand our purpose here and that our burdens would be made light.

Honestly I could go on forever talking about all the things I learned and felt. But this I will share with all of you. I know that we have a living prophet today and that he is the mouthpiece of the lord. I know that the Lord has once again called 12 apostles to assist our dear prophet. I know that we are the only church with the authority of God.
I know my purpose as a missionary which is to invite others to come unto Christ. I know that Jesus Christ lives and that He is our advocate with the father and the only one to have lived a Perfect life. I know the Book of Mormon is true. I will defend the truths found in it with my entire heart and soul. I know families can be together forever.

I hope all is well and you all had a happy Valentine's Day. Do me a favor, and try and share your testimony with someone this week. :)
