Hi everybody!
Time goes so quickly on my mission, I don't know where it
has gone!
Yesterday was my last zone conference. I had to give a
closing testimony and I bawled through the whole thing, idk what's happened to
me ha ha. I cannot express how grateful I am for my Heavenly Father and for the
blessing of my mission.
Easter was beautiful. I gave a talk in the YSA branch. I
recorded it so I will try to send it. <Here it is> Christ won the victory over death! What a
beautiful thing to celebrate.
I have witnessed so many miracles. I am a little devastated
that this is my last transfer, but hey, it's not over until it's over! I am
grateful to continue serving.
On Friday was also the anniversary of the Titanic sinking. I
feel very close to this event, probably because it sank off the coast of
Newfoundland where their help signals were received and many of the victims are
buried in a memorial grave site here in Halifax. I spent the majority of my
mission in NFLD and I'm in Halifax now. We went to a museum last pday with some
Titanic artifacts and visited the grave site. One of the graves there is for
John Law Hume, the violinist who played "Nearer My God To Thee" as
the ship sank.
Another cool thing. We went to the temple last week and the
work we did was in behalf of the victims from the Halifax explosion. It was a
beautiful and sacred experience.
And yet, another cool thing. President called on Monday and
said that some last minute things came up and he needed Sister Goodsell and I
to drive a visiting health couple to some sight around the mission. Their names
are the Sonkins and they are such a lovely couple. Turns out, they live in
Kaden's mission and they know him pretty well! Sister Sonkins was so thrilled
that I knew him ha ha, it was kind of funny.
One more cool thing. A man named Jo Paul came to install
tiwis in our cars and he was telling us about how he drove a prom group from
Tooele to prom last week. Ha ha it might have been Jaden's!
The coolest thing though, is the love I have felt from our
Savior this week. He has been helping me and healing me and forgiving me and
teaching me all along the way and I am so grateful to and for Him. What a
blessing it has been to serve and continue to serve as a special witness and
full time representative of Him. "God be thanked for the matchless gift of
His divine Son."
I love you! Be happy :)
