Zoinks!

What a spirit filled week! How amazing is it that we are the only church in the whole wide world that has 12 living apostles and a prophet that faithfully leads us forth into battle against the adversary. Elder Cook this week was freaking bomb! It’s amazing how simple they speak but how much power they actually have when they speak so simply. He spoke mostly on faith and how to increase it and he told us very simply that if we (as missionaries and presumably members) increase our faith we will be more successful, with talking with everybody, inviting more and more people to something (dinner, church, to look at a mormon.org) we will have more success in the work of salvation. It was amazing!

Cool experience happened this week as well. So we have been trying to meet with John this week. The man who lost his wife to a bout with cancer but we went over there and I feel we are finally making head way with him. He is finally starting to open up and share more of his life with us. We went over and shared a scripture with him and we didn’t let him talk about some of his crazy thoughts but I told him that he would make my day if he came to church. I just knew and had so much confidence in the Savior that if he came he would know that it’s true. That he would feel his love and his wife’s love for him, and he came! It was the best. I know he felt the spirit. Something touched his heart.  It was awesome. It literally made my day.

The temple was awesome. I loved the new temple video - it was amazing! I loved the perspective of Adam and of Eve. You could just feel the emotion radiating from the video. It was awesome!

Well I have to go. I’ll probably get kicked off so I love you!

Love,
