Wow one more transfer down and it flew by. And honestly I
must admit that it was one of the greatest transfers of my life!
Serving at the Priesthood Restoration Site has been the
greatest thing! It's amazing to see how me and all of us as sisters serving
there are playing such a huge role in continuing the restoration.
Last Monday we were able to go to a members house and catch
some salamanders in their pond. It was so fun! All of us caught them with our
hands and earned our "hic" badges so that was pretty sweet! I am
officially certified to live in the country.
Yesterday at church I was able to give a talk about keeping
our eyes on the prize. And so I asked my companion what she thought the prize
was. She said, "Being worthy to live in the presence of the Father, the
son, and the Holy Ghost. Specifically the Father because in no other degree of
glory can you be with the Father than in the highest." Because celestial glory
is the prize and that is degree we can be the happiest.
In my talk I also talked about how we can experience those
happy moments by having glimpses of heaven here on this earth. I have found
that I am happiest when I am centered on my savior Jesus Christ.
I have loved being able to serve here at the Priesthood
Restoration Site! It still blows my mind that every day I am able to walk where
Joseph Smith walked. I am able to walk where an angel of the Lord appeared. And
not only an angel of the Lord, but John the Baptist, the one who baptized the
Son of God.
My whole life has changed since being able to serve here and
see the sacrifices that were made in order to bring forth this amazing work.
And all of those sacrifices were so we could have all these things that we have
today.
I was able to watch President Nelson's birthday celebration
broadcast. And because of the spirit during that broadcast I know that
President Nelson is a prophet of God and that Joseph Smith is the prophet of
the restoration.
Have an amazing week and I love y'all!
Sister Larsen
