I have a testimony in Jesus Christ and in Heavenly Father. I know that they love me so much they established a plan that allows me to return to live with them. I have a testimony of the Book of Mormon and of Joseph Smith, I know Heavenly Father restored the gospel through him. The Book of Mormon is another testament of Jesus Christ and his love for me. I have a testimony of Thomas S. Monson. I know he is a living prophet and through him we receive guidance from our Father in Heaven. I know going on my mission is the right thing to do, I want to become a tool in the hands of the Lord. I know that Fort Lauderdale is the place I am supposed to go and the Lord will help me on my path. I know families can be together forever, that I will be able to see my grandmother and other relatives that have passed on when I too leave this world and return to Him.

In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Week 70 In Ft. Lauderdale....

I am transferring I don't know where, but it is happening, and I must accept it. It is true that I have not had the same type of "success" here. But I have really come to love my companion and this area. I will really miss J*** S******. This area has taught me a lot and helped me learn a variety of new skills and methods of finding and teaching people.

There are also some incredible members here that I have made friends with. And have taught me alot. This week one of those families (the A****** Family) gave us an incredible referral. They are a "Haitian Fam" which is the 1 classic south Florida family type I have not been able to teach and baptize... (gotta catch them all... sarcasm that's not how missionary work goes). But I will be leaving!

This week in my studies I was preparing myself to train (because I thought that I was going to but am not!) and I was studying "Missionary Purpose" and it talks a lot about how Christ was purpose driven and that NOTHING he ever did was contrary to that purpose. And I thought how awesome it is to be a missionary. That I know exactly what my purpose is, it is to "find, teach, Baptize & Confirm, Retain, and Reactivate" and I CAN focus completely on those things and I will! It was a re dedication type of thing! 

I am not sure what else to talk about... we hit up plantation 2 time this week because of Physical therapy for Elder Hunt but now he is doing better.

Stay strong and push on!
