9/4/17

This week was pretty much the same.  Nothing new. I went on exchange with the district leader, Elder Jorgenson (he is actually from riverside), and his area is sweet.  He has so many children to teach which is my favorite because children are funny :)

But then the week continued and we had a sweet District meeting on the Book of Mormon and just how awesome it actually is.  Our mission president invited us to start reading 2 chapters a  day out of the Book of Mormon.  So, we started September 1st and by December 31st we will be done with the whole book. I’ve been doing that but I started in Second Nephi 30, because that’s where I was already.  There are some sweet scriptures from 2nd Nephi through Jacob.  Just wow!

My favorite one has to be Jacob 1:19 because it applies to me as a missionary and how I need to work with all my heart, mind, might and strength because I don’t want the sins of these people upon my head.  Also, I loved Jacob 4:5 just because the Doctrine there WAS COMPLETLY different to what Joseph Smith grew up with…that with Adam and Eve being amazing people. I mean Joseph Smith was a prophet and even if he wrote the Book of Mormon, he’s a pretty dang good reformer.  Thankfully he translated it and it’s a true scripture.


I’d explain the pictures but I can’t see them.  All I know is we saw a dead bird last Sunday :)
