Hello
family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This week was a long one!!!
My companion was sick and we
had to stay inside all week ...... It was so boring but it was cool because I
got to read the scriptures so much. I have learned so much and I feel like I’m
a better missionary because of it. So
blessings come from boredom!!
I’ve been studying the atonement. The coolest thing I think I have learned is
that while repentance takes sincere heartfelt sorrow and pain, those feelings
aren’t there to have us pay Christ back for his sufferings. It’s to show appreciation to the Lord. For some reason this principle really stuck
out to me and has helped me understand Christ’s atonement even more than
normal.
I really don’t know what else to say
... things here have been good. The
weather is great! It’s like 60 and
people are freaking out because it is cold! I’m just grateful that I’m not in Utah and in
the snow!!!!! haha
I’m sorry that this letter sucks so
bad. I just don’t know what to tell you!
We have interviews with President Castro
on Wednesday, I’m excited for it. He
always teaches us something so great.
Oh by the way, an Elder Stanley from
Roosevelt, Utah who knows Josh Libberton is in my district! And he says hello. This world is a small one!
I love you all so much and I miss
you tons.
Elder Blake Garrett
