Happy Monday!
It has been two weeks and so much has happened! On June 1st
Elizabeth got baptized!!
So Elizabeth has been investigating the church for about 8
years and I guess the time was finally right! After she was baptized and
received the gift of the Holy Ghost, her countenance was completely different.
She was beaming!
Thursday was such a good day! We were able to go to the
Priesthood Restoration Site and I got to see all of my friends! The PRS is so
beautiful and the spirit us so strong. I could feel how scared this site is and
that it is the place where john the baptist and Peter, James, and John restored
the priesthood to Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdrey.
The susquehanna river is also nearby and we got to visit
where they were baptized. All of us missionaries has a testimony meeting at
that spot. I have only felt the spirit as strong as it was once before. The
Priesthood is evidence of Gods love for us. He restored His power to the earth
so that we can enjoy the blessings that lead to eternal happiness.
This site is also where 3/4 of the Book of Mormon was
translated. Joseph Smith was lead by the power of God to bring forth this
amazing book! There is a video called, "days of harmony" that talks
about Oliver Cowdrey's experience in harmony. It is a very powerful video about
translating the Book of Mormon and the restoration of the priesthood. I would
like you all to watch this video and to think about how the priesthood has
blessed your life.
Friday we had the opportunity to visit the Philadelphia
temple. It was my first time going for 3 months! And I'll just say that it was
very much needed. I can testify that I know that the temple is the house of
God. It is where you can find peace and comfort from the world around you. You
can receive answers to your questions and feel the saviors love!
I hope all of you are doing good! I love you all and hope
you have an amazing week!!
