| We stopped by the church Saturday, and couldn't figure out why both sides of the parking lot were COMPLETELY filled with cars . . . . literally it was like twice as many as a normal Sunday. So we got out (it was like -15) to talk to these crazy people, and it turns out that they were playing Pokémon Go . . . haha it literally made my entire week, and they were awesome. |
Salut Friends and Fam! Another week rolled by here in Sherbrooke, and it is officially spring! At least I thought haha . . . I don't even remember what the world looks like without snow! We spent some time this week preparing Mami for the trip that all of the youth in our ward are taking down to the Montréal Temple. She is so excited, and it was so great to be able to see her start to understand some of the amazing blessings that come from being in the house of the Lord. As we have been helping her to come to understand the importance of temples, I have certainly learned a lot as well. I really realized this week that Temples have always been a part of God`s plan (Solomons temple for example), and that they are necessary and a blessing for us here on the earth. I really know that we have a just God that loves all of us, and temples are a part of the way that he allows every one of his children to have another chance and a choice. If you want to know more about temples, shoot me an email, talk to my fam (they're studs) or go to mormon.org and talk to the missionaries there, because temples are incredible.

| What really happens in district meetings. |
We had an awesome family home evening with the Laroche family this week, a few weeks ago we gave them a challenge to read the book of Mormon before September, and they agreed, so we joined them. And so they have been reading daily in the book of Mormon, and the change is insane. The mom of the family and her son have started inviting their friends to the evenings with us, and last night they invited Brandon. He was so happy to be there, and he said that he had never felt so positive in his life.
This situation made me realize that: 1. The Book of Mormon really does change lives, and it does so quickly. and 2. so many people in the world just need a little bit of light and love. We can be that source of love, and as Jesus Christ himself explained in 3 Nephi 11, he is the light and life of the world. How incredible is it that you can share that light? Just start looking for ways to brighten the lives of others and opportunities will come, that I can promise you. Just don't be afraid to take them.
