I LOVE THE BOOK OF MORMON

Well, I will try to get it all in this email is going to be a doozy so buckle up.

Last week was super good. We had a lot of cool stuff happen and we were going all over the place, which means I don’t really have time to even think... haha It’s great I love it. I feel like last P-day was yesterday

Last week we went on splits and the one super funny thing that I want to share from those splits was the fact that we got there on time and the other elders where not home, they got let in tracting and could not answer their phone so we ended up tracting also with all of our stuff to stay the night. It was great. We would ring a doorbell and have to hide all our stuff and hope that if we got let in no one -- it was great.

We go all over the place nowadays and there are not enough beds usually for us so we usually end up sleeping on the floor which is honestly a great experience, I kind of am having the Africa mission experience right now mixed with Europe haha. Its fun!

Last week we had a visit by our mission president right at our apartment door. Yes just like the best two years. It was super funny and kind of scary at the same time because he came in and complimented us on how clean our apartment was and then he sat on my bed and had interviews with us to see how the work was going. Just go watch the best two years and it was exactly like that. We were running around trying to clean stuff and get ready for him!

We also went on another split last week that was really fun but to be honest I can’t remember a lot about it! Before that we had a missionary leadership meeting in Budapest and we were able to hear from Elder Leimer! He talked to us about how to get the missionaries excited and committed us to work even harder! I was able to talk to him personally after the meeting because last year at this time he met with my trainer and talked to him about my trainer’s story and me so we had a really cool conversation about my mission and then he gave me a hug. It was great. I like hugs haha.

Also it has become freezing once again and I am not super happy about it but I have decided that it is better than summer so I am excited about it. One cool thing that happened while Elder Leimer was talking is he said that missionaries are matched to their mission president not to the place or to the language. I thought this was really interesting and makes me think about why I was called here!

Now to this week, sorry I can’t remember a ton from last week.

This week we gave training to our Zone in Budapest and it went super well! We had the sister training leaders do a game with everyone about courage. They all gave everyone two jellybeans. They told them to eat one and say it was good or bad... yes there were gross flavored jellybeans. I think I got earwax it was rough. But then they said eat the second. That one was good luckily... my mission president got two dog food jellybeans it was rough, it was hilarious. They went on to talk about courage when talking to people. You never know if it will be good or bad but you just have to because that’s what we are called to do as missionaries. It was great. Then we went on to talk about commitments and how to give effective commitments. We used the story of the Blind man the Jesus healed by telling him to go wash at the water. He committed the blind man to do something and then it was up to the blind man to either do it or not. It was a great training I think, and went really well.

This week we once again went on splits and had some super funny stuff happen. One was when we went to look up an old investigator and came to the address and it seriously looked like and abandoned house that had been haunted for years but there were lights on the inside so we went inside... got inside a couple steps turned to each other and we both new that this place was not where we were supposed to be. So we went back out on the street and as we walked out two of the most massive dogs walk past us. Both were bigger than me by far. Not kidding they were lions. I was blown away. That was just a random thing that happened but they were really big I promise haha. We decided to say a prayer if we were supposed to go into the building and after the prayer we felt okay about it so we went back in and the door was locked but it was still a cool experience because I know the spirit warns us and you never know what would have happened if we kept going the first time!

This week we made a weird Christmas picture for our mission President and his wife. I don’t really know how the picture came out the way it did but it was really funny to make and just... tis the season.

This week we did have a little miracle because Roland came to church all by himself! He is 11 years old and walked by himself at 8 in the morning for 30 minutes to come to church, he’s the best and an example to me that is for sure. 

Lastly, I wanted to talk a little about a miracle we had this week that was really cool. We went to look up this woman that we found last transfer that said we could come back, so we went back and she was home and we started to talk to her, we must have smiled a lot because she let us in and we ended up teaching her! She had met with the missionaries when she was a little girl almost 20 years ago and she even was able to find her super old Book of Mormon from back in the day. She was so nice and we talked about her thoughts on religion and I ended up sharing my story about how I gained my testimony of the Book of Mormon. I talked about praying about it and not getting and answer but with time the answer did come. She committed to read out of the Book of Mormon and pray about it and we will be going back this week!

I know the Book of Mormon has power. I am currently reading it again and I can feel it every time I read from it. It is a simple book that teaches about Christ and I know that if someone wants to know their savior all they have to do is read the book of Mormon and pray about it and they will receive an answer. I love the Book of Mormon.

I love you all have a great week and thanks for reading this beast of an Email!!!

trust and stormy seas (two weeks worth)

November 7, 2016
Well you heard from me on Wednesday so this will be a little bit shorter.

This week on P-day we went to the Zoo and it was super fun. Not as fun as the zoo in Nyiregyháza but it was still so much fun. Also on Monday, we met with our investigator Roland. He is doing really well. He is just so young that he is having a hard time grasping everything we think. It was a really cool miracle though because we went to his house and we started talking. Roland’s older brother and two of his friends also live in this house and the girl was doing dishes right as we walked in. So Roland did the missionary work for us and invited her to stay while we taught him. She asked if it was bothering us and we of course said no and made space for her to sit down. Then Roland took it to the next level and turned straight to Vikki (that is her name) and said “okay great you say the prayer...” it kind of went quiet and she said I don’t know how to pray, so Roland once again stepping in to teach tells her all about prayer and how we pray and what we say and how we do it. So she said okay I will say the first one but you say the last. So he agreed and then she said the opening prayer!! It was crazy! Super cool. So we ended up teaching the whole lesson to Vikki because we were re-teaching the restoration and Roland just helped during the teaching it was great. At the end of the teaching he was like okay your turn to pray and so she was like what no way you said you would say the closing prayer, and just before this we had talked about Roland coming to church, so she said if you say the closing prayer I will go to church with you... we both just had our jaws drop. Roland was doing all our work for us. Sadly they did not come because their alarm didn’t go off but hopefully next week. 

Something funny happened this week too. We had district meeting and we wanted to order pizza for everyone so I called the pizza place and started ordering pizzas. We didn’t know which one to get so I just told them a random number on the list, it ended up being pretty good, but that’s not the funny part. The best part was when she asked where we live and I told her the address of the church building and she was like yea you guys are the mormons... “ was like yea, we are the Mormons”. So I was laughing joking around with her and she knew that it was us because the way I spoke and where we were in the city. So now she thinks Mormons aren’t super weird hopefully. 

We also went on splits wit the Buda Elders this week. I was able to be in Budapest for two days and it was gorgeous I loved it. It was super fun! We also had a cool little miracle happen!  I was able to see a small miracle while I was with Elder Heaps. We decided to go tracting instead of meeting with one of their investigators because we could not find a male member to go with us and we just had the feeling we needed to go tracting. So we said a prayer and went out on the streets. We talked to a lot of people and some said that we could come back but while we were tracting Elder Heaps called the woman we would have met with and told her that we would not be coming. She was very sad to hear this because she had spent along time cooking for us. We said we were very sorry and continued to tract. A couple minutes later we got a call from this investigator saying that she had invited her boyfriend over and that we would now be able to meet with her. Her boyfriend was against the church and was mad that we were meeting with her so this was a really big miracle that he agreed to join the teaching. We shared a great message and it went really well. It was great to have to spirit there and to teach this gospel to someone that is prepared!

So that was a really cool miracle and it was really fun to be up in Budapest for a while. 

This week was also stake conference. We got to be there for the Saturday priesthood session and adult session because we were there in Budapest and then on Sunday we got to see the broadcast! We had a member of the 70 come and give a really great couple of talks to us. He gave a great talk to the missionaries about learning the language and how to be successful. After I was able to have a good conversation with him and he even gave me a hug. It was awesome. Not just because he was a 70, but also because I got a hug haha.

I would like to finish with a quote that I found somewhere I can’t remember. I think it was in a talk. It goes like this "Calm winds don’t carry ships to promised lands, stormy seas do." I love this quote because it is so true. We so often think of our trials or our hardships as bad things and that life would be so much better if it was just smooth sailing. I know for a fact that if I did not have hardships I would not be the person I am today and I would not be in the direction of the promised land. I think it is important to be grateful for hard times because that’s when we grow the most.

I love you all!! If you have any questions or if you are curious about random things here like in Hungary let me know I would love to answer some random questions because I feel like all I do is write about my week and there is a lot of interesting things about this place that I leave out! 

I love you all!

Well this week was crazy!!! This was the first week of all the new things that I am doing! We gave training on baptism this week to all the elders and sisters in our zone and it was really great! It was exciting to be able to teach everyone and be able to prepare for this transfer! 

Then this week we also had our first split with other elders. We went on splits with elders from Sopron. I was able to go with Elder gabel. He is a super cool guy and he is actually from Denmark but has lived in America almost his whole life. It was super funny because he came to our city and the first time here he was able to experience how kind people are. We got yelled at and kicked out of a building and both of us just started laughing ha-ha. This guy was crazy and I was asking him why we had to leave and I said just out of curiosity what are we doing wrong and he said I am curiosity and told us to leave again.... so what ever that means hah it was great. We also made a tradition to cook something yummy on every split so we made banana bread with the elders. It was super fun and really good actually. 

We also taught a really cool lesson this week to a member family. We used a friction erase marker and if you hold a lighter below the paper enough for the heat to touch it the writing disappears. So we taught about repentance and the atonement. If we are marked up wih sins, we can always us the atonement and our sins will disappear and look white as snow. It was really cool and fun!!

While we were teaching that family the cutest thing happened. We were saying the opening prayer and we always kneel at their house so I was kneeling and mid-prayer their youngest kid gets up and turns around and gives me the biggest hug around my neck and just stayed there until the prayer ended. It was the cutest things I have ever had happen. I guess he just new I needed a hug. He then would not leave my side the whole lesson so I now have a new best friend.

This week was the meet the Mormons showing where anyone could come and bring their friends to meet the missionaries. It was really cool but sadly not a lot of people came. A couple members brought their friends and that was great but other than that it was just a free meet the Mormons movie for us in Hungarian. It was a nice break. 

This Sunday I was asked to give a less active member a blessing because the sisters have been meeting with her and she has been fighting smoking for a really long time and she wanted a blessing to get over the hump and to just give it up. It was a really cool blessing and I just love giving blessings in Hungarian and just giving them in general. I was able to say a lot of cool things that once again did not come from me. I think that’s why I like it so much because its like God is talking through me and that’s a super cool feeling. 

One crazy thing that happened this week is we looked up a less active member and found out that she actually died three years before, but her family wanted to meet with us. So they let us in and wow was it crazy... very interesting people with a very interesting smell.... I will not say more but I love fresh air. We met with them and they were super nice and we are hoping to visit them again but it was one of those times where someone lets us in and it feels like we walked into a totally different dimension. It was nuts.

For Halloween we didn’t do anything... They don’t celebrate here so it was kind of lame and it was even lamer that our p-day was on Wednesday but its okay! We did end up having lunch with a member and we grilled cheese... just pure cheese. I feel like I have clogged arteries now but wow was it good. Other than that we just worked the whole day... Celebrations don’t really happen as a missionary, just felt like a normal day! 

The last hilarious thing that happened was we met with one of our investigators that are progressing really well and we brought Bence. She offered us tomato juice, something kind of like V8. I said yes and Bence also said yes. So she poured it and Bence saw that it was spicy... so I drink it and it was actually really good. I loved it. So I look over at him and I see him drink it and he starts dying... He was like gagging and his face was so funny. All of this was in silence and so I am trying not to laugh but he is being so funny that I had to bite my tongue and cover my mouth because I almost started laughing so hard. It was so funny.

I would like to finish with a hymn that I heard in church on Sunday. I can’t remember which one it was, it was just one line that stuck out to me. It said "I trust my life with him" It hits me really hard. I do trust my life with him. I have a huge testimony that we are here and the things we do are for a reason. Everything happens because our
Heavenly Father is leading and guiding us. I know everything will work out because I truly trust my life with him. That’s why I am here. That’s why I knock those doors and why I walk the streets because I know He is the guide. In this life there is no need to fear, no need to worry, not need to stress. Love God. Keep his commandments. And trust him enough to give your life to him. I love you all.

Transfer week

Well this week was transfer week!!! This week has been all over the place and we have been running all over the place. We went up to Budapest this week to get our new companions so I met Elder Howard. He is from Sandy Utah but he was actually born in Russia and lived there until he was 8 years old so he speaks Russian also!! It’s pretty cool! We came back and got everything settled in and the next day went back up to Budapest for a Mission leader meeting and that was pretty cool also. I was asked to give a spiritual thought and these meetings are usually always all in Hungarian so I gave it in Hungarian and it went pretty well. I was a little nervous but it came out all right haha. We sat and talked about all the people in our zones and the goals that we will be having for them in the up coming weeks. 

The weird part about me serving with Elder Howard is he is going home after this transfer which means I will be staying in my city for 8 months... that is a really long time but at the same time I would never want to serve for this long anywhere else so I am excited about it!

This week has been really boring to be honest because we have been planning on who we will be going on splits with and what we will be talking about at Zone conference and things like that so not much has happened. 

One thing that is cool is this week will be the big “meet the Mormons week” here in Hungary. We gave a big training about it in church yesterday and talked to all the members about it. All over Hungary in every city we gave a Book of Mormon to all the members and they are supposed to give those books to someone during the week then this Saturday we will be having a “meet the Mormons day” where they can come and watch the movie and talk to the missionaries! It will be a really amazing chance to break world records for the amount of books given out in one week… so keep the prayers coming so that we can have a successful week!! 

This week there was a really cool miracle that happened. It was small but was still cool. We were planning what to talk about during a presentation we were giving in Sunday school, but we could not think of a scripture talking about lifting burdens in the way we wanted it to. So out of nowhere a sister called and I told the sister who was answering the phone to ask her for the first scripture that comes to her head. So she said mosiah 24:14. I think that is right I can’t remember for sure, but I think it was that one and it was seriously perfect. It talks about what the savior went through and how we can be helped and comforted through him. It was so cool that the one scripture she said was perfect. So miracles do happen sometimes. They are just smaller. 

Sorry this was a smaller and not as exciting email this week! I love you all so much and I know that God’s work is moving forward here. We are working hard and are excited to see the blessings in store. I love you all so much! Have an amazing week!

Transfers & Trials

It has been a crazy week but has gone by so fast I seriously don’t know where the time has gone! I will be staying in my city again and will be getting a new companion named Elder Howard! We will be Zone Leaders. It is going to be a lot of fun and I think we will get along just great!

This email will be a little shorter just because of transfer day and we have a lot to get done today! This week we had some crazy experiences to finish off our transfer together. One day we were tracting and out of nowhere we found one of our investigators, and where he lived!! He came out and we had a long conversation with him. He still did not want to meet but he was willing to talk for a little bit. Then later on Sunday he showed up at church and came to me and said he needed to talk to someone about his sins so I said I can introduce him to the Bishop and he said no I just want to talk to you no one else, and alone... So I said well I can't do that but I would love to help you and you can talk to someone that can make these things go away. He did not want to talk to anyone but me and I can't talk to people about past sins so he left and was not willing to get help. It was sad but hopefully he will come back and realize that there are people here that can help him get rid of the burden he is feeling. That’s the amazing part about the gospel and atonement; Everything can just go away. 

This week we walked one of our investigators to church. His name is Roland and he is twelve years old and is the coolest kid ever I love him. Him and his mom came to church and they really enjoyed it. I will talk about church later. This week we taught him the Word of Wisdom and we were talking about tea and how we cannot drink black or green tea and he thought we were saying the word for milk..., which are very similar. So he got super sad and said he drinks milk every morning and was so confused why we can't drink milk... so we quickly explained that and he was then happy haha. So that was funny.

Also this week I said goodbye to a lot of people thinking that I would be leaving and so in church I was getting really tender with everyone and it was sad because they were sad that I was probably going to leave and now I am ending up staying.... so that is also funny. Nothing else crazy happened this week. It was awesome though. Bence planned on having us over for a goodbye party because everyone thought I was leaving so he planned it for today and his worked called him and said that he needed to work right when we planned to meet and there was no other time to meet.... so Bence tells his work that he is not coming in and he can't because he has something very important and they say... well why we need you and he said... well I am not coming in so either I don’t have to work or I will be quitting right now.... I lost my mind. That’s how much it meant to him to say goodbye to me... Lucky they said okay fine you don’t have to work but still it was crazy! He is the coolest kid I know!

I would like to finish with a talk that was given this Sunday actually by Bence. He gave his first talk in church and I am pretty sure he had everyone crying. It was one of the best talks I have ever heard in my life. He talked about how hard his life was when he lived with his father and the change that he has seen from then until now. He talked about the most dark and hard times of his life, and that they have been the most helpful because he learned the lesson of being grateful for hardships. He went on to say that if he had not experienced the things he had he would not be the person he is today. He would not be as strong as he is, or as sensitive. It was truly an amazing talk and the message is so true. We all have gone through things in our life that have been the most awful and dark places that we never want to even think about, but when we look back and are able to say, wow! I am thankful for that because now, I am strong. Now I know my Father in Heaven and now I can take on the next trial with faith that I will grow. I know this to be true. I have experienced in my own life. I love you all so much and I will have lots to write about next week!!

A woman's beautiful Hungarian prayer

Well this was the week. I have now been a missionary for a full year and I don’t even know how to feel about that ha-ha It’s a really cool feeling but also like wow I have never lived another life. Its great!!

Well this week winter came early. It is once again freezing here and I am not prepared for it in any form of the word. It was a surprise for everyone here.

This week we have found so many people to teach and I know it is not because of us. We found multiple people just through knocking on doors and walking on the street. We have found a little boy named Roland that goes to church by himself every Sunday and is really humble but is in a hard situation where he has to go to a certain church because of the school he goes to but he wants to be baptized so we will be working with that this week! Also we found a couple that is going to pray about the book of Mormon and see if it is true. 

Sadly this week we had one of our investigators drop us. We taught him the word of wisdom and he was not willing to follow it and we tried to set up a time with him to talk about it and see if he can work it out but he does not want us to call him anymore so that was a hard part of this week sadly. 

This week we were successful in getting the actual police called on us. I don’t say that as a good thing I just say it as a funny thing. We were tracting at night and an old lady called the police because she thought we were trying to rob people so they pulled up and were super nice when they saw who we were but I called my mission President and he talked to them and we ended up just having to go home which was lame but yes I can now say that I have had the cops called on me. woohoo haha.

This week we had one of the craziest things happen to me in my whole mission. We were walking on the street and I said hello to a girl walking by because I say hello to pretty much everyone and we keep walking and she calls after us and so we stop and start talking to her and she is acting super weird but she says she wants help spiritually and for us to help her find peace and forgiveness and we had a super long conversation with her but after a while I started putting the pieces together of what she was saying and who she was and why she was walking the streets at night... yes I was talking to that type of girl on the street. I realized this after I had given her a Book of Mormon and heard her life story. It was so sad and I really wanted to help her so once I figured it out who she was I just testified of the Book of Mormon and that it can really help her life if she really wanted to change but wow was it a crazy experience... I walked away in just awe. 

This week I also hit my year mark and to celebrate I spray painted one year onto my shirt and lit it on fire!! It was awesome and that is a tradition here. I went to Bences and he helped me with everything it was so great!! I love that kid and if I leave I will be super sad to say goodbye to him. 

He has a certificate hung in his room now saying he is an aronic priesthood holder and it has my name on it for the person that gave him it and it was so cool to see that and that it will be there forever. It was the coolest feeling ever!!

I would like to finish my email with one of the coolest things that has happened on my mission. At the beginning of this transfer we found an old woman that took a book and then called two weeks later and wanted to meet just did not have time until this Monday. We met with her and she was the cutest little old lady and she loved the gospel and accepted everything we taught. It seemed like she was already Mormon. We taught the restoration and she wanted to hear more and more and was just loving every word we said. She loved why we were here, and she just kept saying that it was true because she could see it on our faces. So we come to the end of the teaching and I start talking about prayer and how we can pray to God to know if the things we have taught are true and if Joseph Smith was a true Prophet. I told her we pray with our own words and just ask God what we want to know. So she was like I love that! When can I say one? I was like uhhh well of course right now. If you can remember back to my farewell talk I talked about an experience where I would hear an older woman pray and I would be able to understand every single word. I got the strongest impression that I would be able to learn Hungarian and I would not need to worry. Well, this woman started to pray and it was the most beautiful Hungarian prayer I have ever heard and I understood every word. The spirit ran over me and I almost was brought to tears. I knew that God had given me my answer and that revelation had come true. God knew that I would learn this language and that this woman’s prayer was an amazing blessing to my life. I know prayer is real and I know God knows what we need in our lives. I love you all so much. Have an amazing day!

The week of persecution

This week was CRAZYYYYY. 

It was an awesome week but I will start with talking about something I left out last week. Last week we had one of the sisters’ Baptisms. It was really beautiful and she was so happy. This was the woman that I was able to do her baptismal interview. She was so happy and I just love to see the change in people after that have made the choice to follow the Savior. 

This week on P-day we went to this monastery close by our city and it was the coolest thing ever. I will send a ton of pictures but the best part is that we have someone in our English class that used to work there so she got us in for free and gave us a free tour and taught us all the cool facts about it. It is called pananhalma if you would like to look it up. I hope I spelt it right. 

This week we had zone conference and at zone conference President Szabadkai walked up to me with a mission call. I freaked out because I thought I was going to some other mission or something but once I read it, it was for one of the guys in our ward that is serving a mission. So we got to take the letter back to him that night and he opened it and has been called to the England South mission! We are super excited for him. 

Also on the way to zone conference, this super cool thing happened. I sat next to this girl and I started a conversation with her and we talked all the way to Budapest. She was really nice and had so many questions about my life and me. So I told her about our daily schedule and how we read from the Book of Mormon every day and she got super interested and wanted to know more about it. So I gave her one and she took it and was so happy. All I did to start the conversation was ask her if I could practice Hungarian and it ended up being really cool!

We taught a really cool lesson this week to a ward family and I wanted to tell you about it. It’s really good for family home evening with little kids. This family has three super cute little kids. So I told one of them that I wanted to have an arm wrestle with him. So he said okay and then I said imagine that I am the devil. So he was like I am going to crush you ha-ha super cute kid. Anyways we arm-wrestled and I crushed him. I then said why did you lose? Where is your power? And he said I have none compared to you. So I then said okay well then lets add elder gentry which was scripture reading, and then the dad of the family which was our Heavenly Father, and then the mom which was prayer and the brother which was church and so on until it was all of them against me. Yes I wish I could say I was that strong but I lost. So I know that when we have all of those things strengthening us we are strong enough to over come Satan.

So this week was full of honestly just people being mean and just some pretty crazy stuff. I felt like I was back in the old days when people just got yelled at and all that stuff. 

The first one happened after zone conference and it was really late so I understand why he was mad but we had to because this is what we are here to do. So we were ringing doorbells and this one person let us in ad we were like hey look at that we got lucky.... NOPE. The guy meets us half way as we are going up the stairs and just starts digging into us using some super colorful language. He even got to the point where we switched to English and I was surprised at his crude language knowledge in English also... so we got kicked out of the building. The next place we went to we got the cops called on us but when they drove up they just looked at us and kept driving ha-ha.

The next was the following night and we seriously got a whole building to come out on their balcony and to look at us and hear our conversation with this jolly old fellow. He was screaming and woke up the whole neighborhood. ha-ha it was insane he was going of on us about why we are here and told us to go back home, so we left and went somewhere else to work. It was like tracting at the great and spacious building. ha-ha don’t do it.

The next was a lesson we had. We found this lady in our area book and set up a time to meet with her. We got there and it just went down hill. Her beliefs were very different which is not a bad thing she just really hated our beliefs and did not agree with the things that we were trying to teach... 

The next one, I promise I am almost done ha-ha.

This one was the best one of the week. In one building a woman opened and just yelled at us and said she was going to call the police so we went to the next door, she opened the door again and yelled at us and told us to leave, so we went to the next door down, she once again opened the door and did the same, all of these door opening ending in a big slam ha-ha. So we left that building and went to the next one. Here we don’t even get into the building but this guy comes down and tells us to leave, we were not even in the building so I ask him why we have to leave and say that we are doing nothing wrong. This made him really not happy and so I kept ringing people. He stood there and told me to leave again and said he was calling to police and got his phone out and took a picture of me... so I gave him a big old smile and a thumbs up. Of course we were respectful and after we finished left and told him to have a good day but he was really not happy. 

I do not tell you all of these to talk badly about Hungarians. I love this people and there are these types of people all around the world. I tell you this because of the miracle that came out of it after. 

Before conference we decided that we would tract because we would not have time any other time in the day and it was pretty early in the morning... We knowing how our week had gone prepared for warfare and went out. We knocked on a door and a very nice lady invited us in. She told us that she got a book of Mormon 15 years ago and remembered the missionaries’ and that’s why she let us in. We taught the restoration and she really liked it and wants to hear more so we are going back tomorrow. It was a huge miracle ad I knew it was because we showed God we were willing to put it on the line for the people out here. 

I would like to finish with one of my favorite parts of conference. It was a talk from Elder Nelson I think. He talked about Joy. He told us all to focus on the Joy of life. There is so much joy around us and so many reasons to be happy. I just want to add my thoughts to that and really say that if we focus on the joy and not the bad our whole perspective is changed. There is joy in every situation. I love you all so much have an amazing week.

Sok Szeretettel,


Ure Elder
