Week 35

Que honda!!!

So I just got back the LA temple, and if you want to go to an awesome temple, go to the LA one. It is huge and very beautiful throughout the whole building. It is literally smack dab right in the middle of la la land and is funny to transfer from the outside environment to the temple. It is as night and day difference and it so much better inside than out. We are currently helping a sister in the ward get re-activated and temple worthy so she is able to get endowed. The light in her eyes and the happiness that is more in her life is just amazing to see from the simple acceptance of our goal to help her. Her name is Carrie Salveson and she is great and loves me and Elder Seitz and we are praying and working with her to receive the crowning jewel of the church.

So, not much else is going on with our investigators. It has been very tough and time consuming to keep the families progressing. Conflicting of schedules is the hardest obstacle right now in effect of the economy and does not make this quote "fun" but we have people to work with just hard to teach.

If you did not watch and hear any of the conference talks, do not wait for the Ensign to come, go on the internet and watch every single talk that you missed and hear it from the mouth of the Prophets. They have answers to every single question that any has from those talks and they will be more beneficial to you as you watch and feel the words that they speak.

I love all of you and hope everyone is good and healthy. I would love to hear and cool stories about anything right now because my brain needs it.
