I Love Sundays


Hello!
Wow these p-days just seem to come so fast. I feel like I was writing home just like 3 days ago! Crazy;). How has everyone been? For those of you still in school are you excited school is almost done?!?! #highschoolmusical2time 

So I didn't get to tell you a lot in my last email because we were in a rush but this last week was pretty exciting. We got a brand new investigator! Her name is Susan Buney. She is in her 70s and a very talkative lady. Sometimes that is really good... sometimes it is really bad. But we love her and feel like she will progress quickly.

The temple was amazing on Friday (no shock there haha). Sister Robertson and I actually cover the area that the temple is in so this past week we have been doing our personal study at the temple. It has been so great. For those of you that cannot go inside the temple, I encourage you to visit the ground of the temple often. There is such a sweet spirit of peace there and in a world like this, peace is the first thing we need. 

Yesterday I also had an amazing experience during sacrament meeting. Our schedule on Sundays is a little crazy because we cover 3 wards and a lot of their meetings overlap. By the time we got to our last ward's sacrament meeting my stress level was through the roof. I could feel pressure in my chest and my weekly Sunday headache was at its prime and on top of all of this, Sister Robertson and I were very late because one of our meetings ran long. We walked in and surprisingly found the pews a lot more filled than normal, so we had to go all the way to the front. I sat down and all of the sudden a huge blanket of peace just rolled over me. I was comfortable. I was calm. I was home. 

I just want to bear my testimony of the power of Church and especially sacrament meeting. There is a peace there and the very longing and questions of our hearts never fail to be answered in those meetings. Go every week. Don't take it for granted. Love your time there. I promise as you prepare yourself spiritually each week before you walk through those doors on Sunday, you will feel the same peace that I felt so strongly yesterday.

I love you all and am grateful for you all and hope you have amazing weeks.

Picture: This is Elder Bruce and Elder Wahrer. I don't think I've ever talked about them before but they are the coolest Elders, and Sister Robertson and I work with them a lot. We probably talk to them every single day. They are two of our closest friends:)
