Hey all! Well, p-days are officially back to Wednesdays! It was kinda weird switching over to Tuesdays, but also weird switching back. Haha! I don't have too much to say this week due to time, but I thoroughly enjoyed the pictures that were sent to me. Elise, I hope you have a great time! Being up there can be a wonderful experience. The weather actually feels like it is changing now. I almost forgot what cool natural air felt like. (when I say almost, I did.) A couple of times I have felt a breeze that was slightly cooler than my skin which was warmed by the sun. It was nice. And the mornings when we run feel like room temperature now. However, I hear it will get warm again. This next transfer will be in one week and will decide where I spend my last transfer of the mission. I could say as much as I could go because the companion I am currently with I have been with for 3 transfers and we go home together. SO, someone is probably going. If not...haha, then that's that. It will be a fun ride. Anyways, the main thing that I would like to mention is an experience that I was privileged to have this last Saturday as I went to the temple to witness the sealing of a family that was baptized about a year ago; the Arredondo's. It was such a wonderful experience to be able to take it from the first time I knocked their door with my trainer the last week of transfer one, to walking with them up to the temple as they held their children by the hands and took them to the Lord's holy house. I don't think that there is anything better that can happen as a missionary than to see that. As of September 11th, 2010, the Arredondo's are a Forever Family. I have a testimony that this work is the Lord's work. When we seek to do it His way and by His spirit, wonderful things happen; to us and those we serve. The temple is the place where the Lord wants us to be; individually and as families. Go there. I love what I do. I love that I get 7 more weeks to pound the pavement and find those that are looking for the truth. It is here; all of it. Have a great week! I love you all!
