2/4

The Northern Lights were out three nights in a row this week! It was the coolest thing ever! They were only green but missionaries 2 hours east saw pink and yellow! Ive been told the Northern Lights come out usual when there is big temperature swings like there has beam this week, it's ranged from -20 to 15°. My dad sent me pictures of back home and how much it snowed down there! That's so crazy. 

Elder Lott taught me how to make Shepherds pie this week so that was very cool. Elder Lott made enchiladas! We also experimented with pulled pork by putting doctor pepper in to soften the pork.. It was a success!! So good! I've gained 5 pounds so far on my mission :) 

This week I am grateful for not only the cleansing power of Jesus Christ but also the strengthening power he has. As I partook of the sacrament yesterday, I felt cleansed washed away of my mistakes. but with that came the strength to have my thoughts be turned to others the entire day. For I have been focusing my efforts on improving my selflessness. I know that through the strength I have received from partaking of the sacrament I can be more selfless. And it's helped me not focus on my problems which has been a true blessing! 

I know that you all too can receive strength through our Brother, and Savior the lord Jesus Christ. If you just have Faith in him.

From the Prophet Moroni in The Book of Mormon 

Moroni 7:33

 And Christ hath said: If ye will have faith in me ye shall have power to do whatsoever thing is expedient in me

Jesus loves you, I love you
