Hope y'all had the chance to watch conference, I got to watch...about 1/2 so far, haha. Its a long story, but we missed a good chunk on every session except for the last due to some really unlucky circumstances, but we live in the future, so we are watching what we missed tonight! My dad also told me y'all got snow back home...meanwhle I have a 70% of dying from heat exhaustion just existing outside over here. I'm ot jealous. Not at all. Most of our ward is heading out this weekend too to help up in Carolina, super bummed we cant tag along. Met some cool people this week though!
We got to see some famiiar faces again this week (Kiner fam, Erilus fam, Annie), and they are all doing well! We saw a bunch of interesting Floridians this week, it was quite entertaining! Most importantly though, we met Leroy! He is an awesome guy. He is about 60, and his aunt was a member of the Church. When he was younger, a friend gave him a Book of Mormon, but he lost it when he moved. He had actually been looking for it recently, and was very grateful to get another one. He and his wife have been looking for a church, and were very excited to learn about ours. He is a funny dude, he is like 60, and has a lot of physical issues, yet refuses to stop working at his family business (because "they all don't know how to do it right!").
I managed my timr poorly and have to finish quick sorry y'all (mostly Mom). Its still been awesome here on my mission though! And from the bit of conference I did ge to see thus far, something I loved was the question from one of the speakers acting as Christ: "Do you trust me?". Its something I have always been horrible at. I'm really bad at being willing to let go of the reigns in any situation, but esspecially things that play a big impact on my life, but what more do I know than He does? Its interesting to think, but when we truly do just place our trust in Him, everything alse just works out. When we let Him lead us, He turns around and gives us back the power to choose what we will, but just clarifies why we should choose one way over the other. Trust Him, it'll work out! I love you all tons! Have an awesome week! Thanks for everything you all do for me and eachother! LOVE Y'ALL!!!
