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.

Hey family! Man Kyle, sounds like you had a pretty intense game of fugitive! Way to use your ninja skills! Gosh I still can't believe Rebecca how old you are and how grown up you are it scares me to death haha. I still can't get over how much you have grown! And then you will be driving here soon!

Well this past week was good. We now have 3 baptismal dates for the month of February. We have 2 for the 18th for Jeremy and Phi both of which are for the Sam Houston 2nd ward then the other date is Feb. 25 for Mercedes who is for the White Oak ward. This past week we tracted into a lady who seem interested and asked us to come back the next day at noon. We did but then she said to come back at 4 so her whole family could be there so we show up and it's pouring rain and I mean pouring! And all the blinds were shut and the lights were off and no one was home so we got soaked! But we dropped by the next day and met up with her and she said sorry but she said she wants her family including herself to be baptized and they asked us if we could lead them some to a place where they can do that :) We sure can haha. 

Super bowl Sunday was a bummer for missionary work so while the super bowl was going on we went to Wheatstone's apartment and kicked with Ulugia, Fuller, Beers, and Leishman. It is so good to see Ulugia again and I am so happy to be serving near him so that I get to see him more often :)

Wish everyone that is popping babies congrats on behalf of me :) I love y'all and pray for y'all.
