Tomorrow is an exciting day for you! What a wonderful blessing to not only be taught by an apostle, but to be face to face while hearing him bear testimony of the Savior. I bet he has a great personality. Might even be funny. So happy for you. So glad you are serving a mission and can be blessed by awesome experiences like this.
Malachi's team lost to brother Idiart's team on Saturday. The game was great. Our boys aren't used to losing so it is a good lesson for them. Nauvoo is sweet and peaceable as always. Camilla is working crazy long hours and celebrates one year with Jayden tomorrow. Sariah is trying to figure out her plans for post graduation. She passed her Springboard so it should be smooth sailing for her at this point. Christian and Aleesha moved into the new house this week and Sorin is learning how to paint the outside with his dad. They are so stinkin cute!
Dad and I are just trying stay balanced in the midst of all the chaos. My scripture for this week is found in Mosiah 7 the final verse. This gives me great hope that no matter what we might battle in this life, if we seek the assistance of the Savior we can be strengthened. Repentance is always necessary and always possible.
I would love to hear about your week with your new companion and Elder Bednar's visit. I love you more than my words can say. I love watching your videos over again and again.
Love,
Mom
Hola Padres!
This week was awesome and yesterday with Elder Bednar was amazing. He taught us by our questions and then after we asked him questions he would say, "can I ask you a question", and then he would give us a question, every question that we answered was correct, because it was from the spirit and what we felt and thought. It was truly inspiring to talk to an Apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ. I'm glad that I studied and prepared so I could be spiritually ready. At the end of the meeting he asked us if we noticed anything that he talked about and why. He talked a lot about our future and about the kids that we will have and how we will have to learn to take care of them and watch over them. I asked him why and he said to me open up your scriptures and go to Mosiah 8: 15-17 which says:
15 And the king said that a seer is greater than a prophet.
16 And Ammon said that a seer is a revelator and a prophet also; and a gift which is greater can no man have, except he should possess the power of God, which no man can; yet a man may have great power given him from God.
17 But a seer can know of things which are past, and also of things which are to come, and by them shall all things be revealed, or, rather, shall secret things be made manifest, and hidden things shall come to light, and things which are not known shall be made known by them, and also things shall be made known by them which otherwise could not be known.
After that he said I'm a seer and a revealator and I can receive revelation for you. It was an awesome meeting and I was lucky to be there. I love you mom and I'm so thankful for supporting out here on my mission, a lot of missionaries don't have that support. I give my love to the family, Moroni
