Week 68!

last monday pday of the transfer... next email youll probably find out where i finish my mission AHH! i think ill be leaving san angelo and going to one last area for my last 2 transfers but god has been doing some crazy things through president langeveld recently so we shall see...

i genuinely feel like my "why" for being in san angelo this transfer has purely been to love & learn from the sisters in this zone! HOLY theyre all incredible! sister hunter and i had the most heavenly exchange this week... i will truly look up to her for her strength & testimony for the rest of my life!

we did a lot of community volunteer work this week at the christmas at fort concho event here. we were able to volunteer for a couple days at the nativity room... nativities from all over the world on tables and display cases for people to walk through & look at! it was amazing to see all different kinds of people uniting over the baby jesus. a simple reminder that christ is the universal but personal savior!

2 things that struck me yesterday:

- in the worldwide christmas devotional, elder gong said something, i think a quote from a grandson... "christ used to be a part of my life, now he IS my life!" & i LOVE that. i know that through christ, i can get through anything & that he is my savior. i pray that he will forever be the center & focus of my life!

- in the opening prayer for sacrament meeting, sister whittle said, "we're grateful that we get to work with him (jesus) to return to thee." just because christ is my savior, doesnt mean i get to do whatever i want. it means i get to partner with him in striving to become the best me i can be!

never forget how truly loved you are!
