HI!
Okay , so this week had some more traveling like usual and tomorrow we have to travel some more for a few days , haha. But I've gotten used to all of the traveling by now, its kind of fun. This week it has been raining every night with lightning and thunder and one night it was INSANE and with one lightning strike the lights went out for a second in our house and all of the lights turned off on the mountains. We made a video and it 's basically just us screaming ' hahaha. But besides that this week has been pretty good. We have been sharing the video "Because He Lives" with everyone and it has been SUPER AWESOME!! I've realized that I LOVE talking about the Atonement! It has given me a chance to really think about the Atonement and just how great of a blessing it is to each and everyone of us. I've also been thinking about how I can show my appreciation for the Atonement everyday. The answer I got was...USE IT!!! Everyday we can take advantage of the Atonement and show Christ that we are truly grateful for everything he did for us, from taking upon himself our sins and afflictions and sicknesses to conquering physical death so we can conquer it as well! One of the ways we can use the Atonement everyday is by repenting everyday. I want to leave you guys with a challenge to think of the ways to use the Atonement everyday, and do it. I 'm sorry to cut this email short but I don 't have much time. I know that this church is true and that our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ live. I love you all so much and thank you so much for all of your love and support!!
