Hey Everyone! I don't have too much time so this might be a little shorter but that's okay!
So Chris and Molly are both sooooo solid. They both watched conference on their own on Saturday and were posting on Facebook about how much they loved it. It was so sweet. Then Sunday they got together with all their friends in the church and we watched it and it was so good! We also had a struggling recent convert come and I think it really helped him out too.
We also had a devotional with Hank Smith! He's basically this guy who gives a lot of really powerful devotionals and he was able to teach me a lot about how to recognize the spirit. He talked about how the scriptures teach that if you have the desire to do good, that's a measure of the spirit. So we all have felt it whether we think we have or not. This week as well I was able able receive a powerful answer to a prayer. I won't go too in depth, but I know that prayer works and that the Spirit is so real!
We also were able to teach this guy named Matthew the restoration and he just ate it all up! He was so excited to go home and read the Book of Mormon and it was pretty cool to see.
And we had one of the people we're teaching ask us for a blessing so we were able to give that to her!
Something I really liked from conference was the talk that talked about being 1% better. He said if we are 1% better every day, we will be 37 times better after a year. And if we have a clear vision for where we want to go, then we will be able to get there! So my invitation to you all is to have a vision for yourself spiritually. Who do you want to be? And then work a little bit every day to get there and one day you will! Love you all!
