This is LAST WEEKS email

Okay... Sorry everyone. I didn't type Dad's email address correctly.. So this is last weeks email... Enjoy!



Well.. Happy Birthday Church. April 6 is a special day. So. Take some time and reflect.

This week. Good things happened. Funny things too. haha. So. On Wednesday we decided to do something that was uncomfortable, and so we decided to go downtown to do some contacting there. Contacting people on the street is the most AWKWARD thing ever!!! Here we are walking down busy streets, and trying to stop people in the middle of their walk to where ever they're going and we try to teach them the Restoration in a minute. haha... Gong show. So while we are walking, Sister Costley and I are contantly trying to egg each other on and it's funny to see how we each react to the most awkward situations ever. haha.. But it's fun and it makes good memories. Thankfully, we dont have to do that every day but we've decided it needs to be done every once and a while, just to keep us on our toes. Good times.

Also... WHAT THE LAME!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!! You weren't supposed to find out that I was coming home on June 2 until Mother's Day!!! I had this great plan all figured out. I wasn't gonna tell you when I was coming, home and so far I've been doing really good at keeping my mouth shut. I've known for a long time. So I was gonna tell you on the phone when I talked to you in May.. SURPRISE!!! I'm coming home 3 weeks before you thought I was!!!! haha... Oh man.. When I played the event over in my head, it was hilarious... I'm sad that I dont get to live through my ingenious idea... haha... But yes... The truth is out.. I'm coming home the day before my birthday... Take that Clarke! You get married the day before my birthday, I come home on your anniversary. hahahaha. Oh the sweet revenge. hahaha...

So... Anywho... The other awesome event of this week was of course General Conference. I LOVE HEARING FROM THE PROPHET AND APOSTLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They have such an incredibly strong spirit, and I think that I payed better attention this time than I ever have in my life! But it was so good!!! Everybody talked about enduring through trials and adversity, and assured us that as we live worthily, that we'll come out on top, and that we'll be able to have the eternal life that we all hope for. I love the gospel. I know it's true more than anything. I love sharing the Gospel and seeing it bless the lives of the people I've come to love here. So. Share the gospel with everyone. Seek to have the Spirit, and by doing so, the Lord will make you an instrument in the hands of the Lord. Love y'all. The Church is true.. without a doubt.
