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 - April 16, 2012

Hey family! So first off I'll tell ya why I asked y'all for some money during the week so there is a member in the ward that she makes quilts and she gives a discount to the missionaries and she does a special quilt with one side having designs that we can pick from and on the back is the state of Texas.  It isn't finished yet but it looks sick!

So this past week we had continually success with the less actives in our area. We finally got a hold of two families so that is really awesome and they are really chill families. Still no gators but that's alright. Still trying to stay focused and finish strong.

Tell Michael Allred congrats on his mission call. 

Well I don't really have any job preferences except for nothing in construction or landscaping ha ha but as they say beggars can't be choosers I guess. Well transfers are this week and I doubt I am going anywhere and same with Tobchan so by Wednesday we will be the oldest missionaries in the mission it's pretty crazy! We'll I love y'all take care!
