My Testimony

My Testimony:
I know that the Atonement is real and that we can all enjoy the cleansing power that it provides. I am grateful for my Savior for performing the Atonement so that I can return to my Father in Heaven. I am grateful for missionary service. I am thankful that missionaries world-wide have the opportunity to bring the fullest blessings of the Atonement to faithful children of God. I know that the Bible and The Book of Mormon are inspired scriptures and are here for our behalf. I owe everything to all of those prophets of old that loved us so much and desired so much for our salvation to write down the words on how we can be saved. We are literally children of a loving Heavenly Father and He wants us to return to Him. I know that Jesus is the Christ. And I love the joy the gospel brings with the knowledge that we can be together with our families for all eternity.

Email Update: June 13, 2011

Well the good news is nothing is wrong with my pinkie finger.  Other missionaries and myself thought I fractured it but it's just a deep bruise.
 Well today we did P90X and boy is that a work out! Then after that we did about 2 1/2 hours of tennis. And now we don't know what else to do for P-day. Because our zone is rebellion against each other. Our zone leaders announced a new rule that apparently came from President.  We didn't like this new rule whatsoever and voiced our opinions because it made no sense and didn't go in hand with the white hand book. The zone leaders called us literally "Pharisee's" and they were so mad with all of us and we called the AP's and asked them what's going on and it turns out it didn't come from President so ZL's lied and we are shunning each other but this just makes me laugh this is the biggest drama I have had on my mission haha it's so silly.
Any who, two miracles happened this week we have two new investigators and one was a member referral - talk about Hallelujah! ! Thank goodness. And I have written in my journal everyday this past week except for 1 but I made up for it so I am doing pretty good! 
I went on two exchanges this week back to back and I was in a car for 2 days so that was nice. We find out transfer calls this Saturday so we will see what comes about. Thanks for your e-mail it was really good!

Love Cory Barton
