This week was a long one but lots of fun things happened!
First we had transfers and I am back with Sister Reynolds.
The best companion to ever walk the earth. These next 7 weeks are going to be
amazing. We are living with Sister Rodriguez and Sister Shepherd and so this is
probably going to be one of the best transfers of my life.
So Thursday was a fun adventure because we got two new
elders in our area and we had their house key. They didn't get here until 11
and so we had to wait up for them and then they also ended up getting lost. So
that was pretty adventurous besides the fact that we were super exhausted the
next day, and that was the day Elder Christofferson came.
Yes, you read it right Elder Christofferson came to the
Priesthood Restoration Site. One of the 12 apostles along with 3 other general
authorities. Sister Reynolds and I got to take them on part of the tour and it
was super awesome!
So yeah that was definitely the highlight of my week. Other
than that nothing really happened.
I do however want to share that I know that prophets are
called of God. I was watching President Nelsons birthday celebration about 2
weeks ago and I got a strong confirmation that I knew he was a prophet of God.
And being able to serve here at the PRS I have been able to learn for myself
that Joseph Smith was also a prophet of God. That he in reality saw Heavenly
Father and Jesus Christ. He restored His true church to the earth and he
sacrificed all that he had to bring forth this His sacred work so we can enjoy
these blessings today.
Often times we may take this restored gospel for granted. We
may not remember the things that the early Latter-day saints had to give up so
that we could have the restored gospel today. But they gave up a lot, and
because of them, we can enjoy the fullness of these things today.
So this week try to remember the sacrifices that the people
made before us. Try not to take these things for granted and hold them close to
your heart.
I love you all!
Sister Larsen
