Friends and family;
Helloooo! I hope that you all
had a fun halloween. We spent the day driving home from a sisters
conference that we went to in Sparks and then got to pass out hot chocolate at
our wards trunk or treat! The whole community here pretty much just comes
to the trunk or treat because no one really passes out candy at their houses..
not complaining at all- it was a solid opportunity for some missionary work
;). Also elders got me a princess crown so that rocked hahah.
We have 3 baptisms coming up in
this next month and I am so excited! Tali (from New Zealand), Amanda
(from Australia), and Ana (from the Philippines)- the foreign people love us I
guess. Just kidddinng, Heavenly Father has been placing such amazing
people in our path though and I am so grateful. One thing that has really
been on my mind lately because of general conference and because we've been
teaching it so much is the commandments. We are promised in the
scriptures that as we keep the commandments, we will be happier. Looking
back on my own life and observing the lives of so many other people that we
teach I have been able to grow such a strong testimony of that. Heavenly
Father does not ask us to do anything to limit us, he asks to do things because
he LOVES us and knows they will set us free and make us happy! Every time
I have ever found myself unhappy- it is because I am not keeping the
commandments the best I could or being as obedient as I could. I know
that will be the case for anyone! Mosiah 2:41 says it well.
We
have transfers this week and I am praying with all my heart that I get to stay
here in Ely- but one thing I have learned is that Heavenly Father always gives
us exactly what we need, whether we realize it at first or not. He loves
us and knows us perfectly and I am so grateful for that knowledge! This
gospel is perfect- every single aspect of it. I love it and I love being
a missionary! Thank you for all the love that I receive. You are
all wonderful human beings! have a wonderful week and always let me know
if there is anything I can do for any of you :)
Love,
Sister Paul
