It sounds like you had a good Thanksgiving! I missed you so much!! I was thinking about the family all day.
Elder Canova and I got to have a SAMOA Thanksgiving!! It was great! They had two pigs and two turkeys and tons of sea food and it was so yummy!! We got to visit alot of families in the ward, less active and active families. We visited about 6 families so even tho I really really missed home, going shooting and chillen around the house watching movies and eating yummy food... ...we were still loved by our church families so it was ok..
we have a few new investigators! Zina (23) and her mom! Elder Canova and I decided to go on a Less Active SPREE and we found Zina at a less active's house while we were visiting! so now we're teaching them..
Anyways, my mission has been so good. I'm really loving the studies I've been able to do. I've been able to learn alot about the church, but I've also been able to learn and understand alot about how this earth was created, space and time, spirituality and where we come from.. The gospel teaches so much if we are willing to really dive into the doctrines and search for answers. Alot of what science is discovering now was already revealed by Prophets of the church long before scientists even had the technology to discover things like 'space and time'. The thing I like most about studying this as a missionary - is that I have the Spirit with me, the Spirit testifies of TRUTH!! so when I read about things like 'The Creation' my eyes of understanding open and I can comprehend 'Matter Unorganized' and that God in his infinite power organized that matter- thus creating the Earth! Science with out the Spirit is so limited. its like a computer without a screen.. it works, but you can't SEE anything!!! haha
I'm doing well. Tell the family I love them and miss everyone tons!! I LOVE YOU
LOVE
Elder Blandon
