2014 has been a great year so far. Here's some cool and not cool things about this week.
THE GOOD
Transfer calls came Saturday night...we're both staying in South City! The sisters in the ward are staying too, so we're going to have one awesome transfer.
The Lord gives us like tons of blessings when we obey. When we have the faith to do what Heavenly Father asks, we have the Spirit, and we can be happy.
We got fed this week. I really like food.
The weather in San Francisco is perfect right now. Sunny, slightly breezy, warm...happy winter :)
Yesterday, Lona and Jesus spoke at a fireside called Why I Believe at the temple in Oakland. It's a testimony meeting where recent converts speak about how their lives have changed since they were baptized and why they decided to be baptized. Jesus and Lona were both awesome! The Spirit was super strong. It was awesome.
THE BAD
We've been teaching a less active, Brother Hamilton, for a few months. He's been battling cancer for a number of years, but he passed away this week. We're really sad to see him go, but he's not in pain anymore, and we'll see him again. Thank goodness for the Plan of Salvation! He's probably doing donuts in his spirit world Lambo right now.
THE UGLY
Elder Vance borrowed my clippers to give himself a haircut this week. He learned the difference between 3 mm and 3/8 inch...after the haircut. Good thing hair grows back...
THE TRUTH
The Gospel is true. Jesus Christ has restored it to the earth through a prophet, Joseph Smith, just like He did many times in the Old Testament. God wants our families to be happy, so he's provided a way for us to become clean from sin and find peace in this life.
Love,
Elder Gillie
