January 10, 2017

Just to start off, the temple was amazing. I think I spent about an
hour in the celestial room. It was so awesome.
I just love going to the temple. It is always uplifting and
spiritually edifying. I learned so much. It was really cool to be able
to talk to President McMurray after the session and learn some things
from him. The endowment is super missionary centered, and I had never
realized it before.
I'm also super grateful for fasting and prayer. The temple trip was
amazing. I absolutely love the temple. Sooooo much! The Spirit was
super powerful in the celestial room. I could've stayed there forever.
And I wanted to. But I learned that much like Adam and Eve learned,
there is no other way to learn and grow unless we leave the presence
of the Father for a time. Which is kind of counter intuitive but it's
true. After going to the temple, I am starting to realize just how
much I miss being with our Heavenly Father and Savior. Every time we
go to the temple, and very time we go through an endowment session
especially, it seems to awaken a longing inside my soul. I don't know
how else to describe that.





This week was good. I was finally able to overcome that sickness,
which was nice.  We now have another missionary with us. His name is
Elder Alexandre. His companion went home on Friday so he will be with
us until the end of the transfer.

So this week we discovered that both of the investigators we have that
are progressing are moving at the end of the month. Which is pretty
depressing. But they are still progressing, which is awesome. Danielle
 is doing really well, she is definitely warming up to us now and she
is reading from the Book of Mormon and praying about it. Jason is
another investigator we have that is doing really well but he is
moving to Rock Springs at the beginning of next month. Which is tough.
But we are just glad that they are both becoming converted, but we are
still sad that they are leaving.
