Happy New Year!

I am doing great! They finally fixed our heater this week, so we aren't freezing now.

Our New Years was great. We had to be in at 6:30 so we just made goals, read our journals over the past year...crazy that I've almost been out a year! It literally feels like 4 months! New Year's Day we
had MLC in Gridley. Everyone is going home! Said bye to Elder Palmer, what a good friend...kept me sane in Palo Cedro!

Doctrine and Covenants 86, this is a Revelation given to Joseph Smith in 1832. In verse 5 we read "Behold, verily I say unto you, the angels are crying unto The Lord day and night, who are ready and waiting to be sent forth to reap down the fields". WE WERE THOSE ANGELS begging to come to this Earth to share the gospel! We are ALL missionaries! Our purpose is to INVITE others to come unto Christ! Yes sharing the Gospel might be scary, but you were born to do it, you were born on
this earth, at this special time to SHARE to Gospel. How we share the gospel doesn't matter, what matters is that we share it! Whether it's inviting a family over for dinner, whether it's posting something on Facebook for friends and family to see, or inviting someone to meet with the missionaries. It is our, every members, responsibility.

Thanks for everything! I love you all!
